The game obviously has its issues - the 3D and the monster sprites are clearly simplistic, but that's not because the game is underdeveloped - it's simply a faithful port of the Saturn original which I personally couldn't enjoy as I don't know Japanese. I was eagerly awaiting this release as it was the only way in which I could experience Soul Hackers in an enjoyable way and I was not disappointed by it. The animated FMV's are charming, the demon-collecting (or rather, chatting with them) mechanics are fun (especially because the demons can actually *leave* or disobey you if you don't follow the moral guidelines they believe in) and fun, the combat is diverse (Close-range attacks, ranged attacks, magic, status effects, front and back row - things that you're familiar with if you play dungeon crawlers, all executed great), demon fusing is as much fun as it always was and I can't wait to dig deeper into the game. I haven't finished it yet, but I'm a good couple hours in and so far I'm very satisfied with it. The only thing that could possibly make the game better would be a new coat of paint - remade sprites, environments and whatnot, but that'd make it a remake, not a port.… Expand

   this is a fantastic game, with a great voice cast, one of the most unique story lines and an amazing soundtrack by Shoji Meguro. I would notthis is a fantastic game, with a great voice cast, one of the most unique story lines and an amazing soundtrack by Shoji Meguro. I would not recommend this game for casuals, since it's brutally hard, enemies do obscene amounts of damage and the loyalty system will definitely a source of constant frustration until you figure it out. I'd recommend it ten fold!… Expand

I would highly recommend this to RPG lovers. I was excited when they released information about a Shin Megami Tensei with full 3D visuals. The 3D really makes the locations stand out and look more like a piece of art than just a building. This game is excellent. With a few shorthands now and then, the game is still quite impressive.… Expand

   Fun, and also a very challenging game. Its super satisfaying to kill that pesky boss using some strategic moves.
   It does feel a bit outdatedFun, and also a very challenging game. Its super satisfaying to kill that pesky boss using some strategic moves.
   It does feel a bit outdated since its a "re-release" of an old Megaten game, and its a bit fast at the beggining (kinda makes you go WTF), but overall its a really good game, worth every $
   
   I give it an 8.5. (I cant give that score actually T_T)
   
   Also, it comes with a little OST CD, so its even better!… Expand

   if you're a hardcore shin megami fan, then chances are you've already bought this game (like me). but i was disappointed, the story isn'tif you're a hardcore shin megami fan, then chances are you've already bought this game (like me). but i was disappointed, the story isn't interesting, the characters are flat and the gameplay is frustrating because you can't really control your demons, they have an a.i. and their very annoying most of the time. they have a specific ai that lets them do specific moves. i gave up halfway through the game and i'm going to start smt 4 or pokemon conquest instead.… Expand
