Topic: The Last Story

I keep forgetting that it's not out in America yet.
Feels like a forever ago when I played it.

Does anybody know anything about it's release? I have it reserved at Gamestop and they never called me to tell me it would be available today, and now their website says the 16th and Amazon says it won't be shipped for 2-3 weeks if you order it now. What is up with this game here?

My lameflop said they won't recieve copies til tomorrow when I went by today. Ah well, not like I was gonna play it any time soon anyway.

Funny, I really liked the ending of Xenoblade. It had some surprising revelations. The only thing is though is that it leaves you wondering about certain things, but it's kind of good those things are left to the imagination.

IGN'S 10th favourite Wii game,1 ahead of Xenoblade,which was 11th.

Got my copy. The preorder artbook case thing is really cheaply made, looks like some flimsy paper material. Oh well, the artbook itself is nice.

Will play later tonight~

Got it today. The soundtrack CD is amazing.
Oh, and the game's fun too. Just some advice for those who care: if you're used to playing third person shooters, I actually recommend you play with the nunchuck, since you can't strafe while aiming with your crossbow. This means that while aiming, both controll sticks do the same thing, and you'll never get used to it. Cameral control is something that you don't really miss when playing this, at as far as I am into it.

I sorta want this game. But I'm saving up for a laptop.

Is this game worth it? I preordered it for the longest time until I bought TRFF instead.

I feel sorry for you picking Theatrhythm over this.

Yes it is worth it, go buy it now.

The Last Story is the best game on Wii,do your self a favour and buy it,you'll just love it,.

I guess moomoo kind of answered my question, but did those who got this from Gamestop get the CD for preordering, because I didn't. It's not that important, I was just wondering. I've had them forget about pre-order bonuses before though, so I'll probably go back tomorrow and check. I'm just glad to finally have the game.

You know, this game is really, REALLY, easy. Mistwalker should have done some tweaking in the dificulty department, or at the very least give us a hard mode.
Granted, I can't stop myself from getting into optional fights because the battle system is so fun. I wish there would have been some mandatory grind moments to justify my constant playing, but there isn't.
That's how fun this battle system is. Seriously, I've fallen in love with this game.
I could deal without the annoying narrator, though. All he does is state the blatantly obvious or say things that could be done better by actual people in the game in a more effective and expediant manner. I'm amazed they kept him in there.

Everyone on my steam friend list seems to be having fun with this game.

Xenoblade didn't leave much to the imagination.

So I picked up the game this weekend but won't be able to play it until later because I have this stupid AP Summer Assignment I have to finish on Monday, first day of school. I hate my life...

I know I shouldn't read into reviews to much but after reading game informers review of the game I was underwhelm over this game I still went ahead and picked it up thinking I might return it. Haven't played it yet but the packaging looks wonderful. Wasn't expecting a cd along with an art book.

With that said I know the review here is much better and it's good to see so many people here like it. I won't get a chance to play till next week though!

the problem is you read Game Informer. And again, I don't care about supposed gaming bias, it is pretty often the worst of online gaming journalism, but at a price.

And also I don't care if they weren't huge fans of it, but I wouldn't be surprise if they complained about something monumentally pointless.

Just got back into this after 3 months and the combat has quite a fair bit of tactics involved; well at least I think so anyway maybe not as much as your typical SRPG kind o game; but for a more standard RPG I've struggled a few times and been stuck much more often than say Xenoblade.

For some reason The Last Story isn't available at my Gamestop right now and the employees there are claiming that the release date has been changed to August 21st, which I know isn't true. Are there any online retailers that have good deals on this game? I'm getting sick of Gamestops shady practices so I'm not purchasing this game from them.
