Phantom Brave

 Phantom Brave is a lot more serious than its predecessors. And though it does possess some of the same humor and light-hearted situations that La Pucelle and Disgaea had, the characters and plot pacing in this game have much heavier stakes. So while the opening narrative may seem like an innocent fluff piece involving a 13-year old girl who can talk to ghosts, the progression of the story eventually brings much darker issues to the table. Friends die, dreams are crushed, and more often than not, hope is all but lost. And for fans of previous titles and their quirky brand of humor, this more solemn approach could be a little off-putting.

But Phatom Brave still successfully maintains a lot of the same elements that made Nippon Ichi's previous two titles as strong as they were to begin with. First and foremost, the enhanced and stylized 16-bit graphical look is back once again. And unlike Disgaea or La Pucelle, Phantom Brave offers stronger attention to detail, better special effects, and slightly more animations compared to its predecessors. No doubt about it, it's definitely the best looking game in the series so far, with character and environmental designs standing out in particular. Besides, looking a bit dated is part of the franchise's charm anyway.

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater

Stealth espionage action takes to the jungles in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater for PlayStation 2 and PC. Set in what appears to be the 1960s, Snake Eater tells the story of a man who appears to be Solid Snake, but based on the time frame and information revealed in previous games, could be someone else altogether. Survival is a major theme throughout MGS3, as Snake must adapt to the harsh jungle environment, while at the same time battling enemy soldiers. Snake Eater promises a complex plot and vivid music score to rival a Hollywood blockbuster, along with and realistic graphics and high-definition sound that will take the series to new heights.
