Just another RPG.

Pros Cons
Amazing visuals Doesn't live up to expectations
Awesome audio  
Engaging story  
Innovative concepts  

When I play a game by a top-notch developer like Tri-Ace, I expect to experience high quality graphics, an amazing story, and responsive controls. Infinite Undiscovery accomplishes all of these things. While I was playing however, I kept saying to myself "This reminds me of Final Fantasy," or "This reminds me of Zelda." That was the problem. Infinite Undiscovery didn't bring enough fresh ideas to the table. I was always feeling like Undiscovery was just another RPG. For those looking for an RPG game that will keep you busy for a while, I highly recommend Infinite Undiscovery. For those who are more hardcore fans like myself, I would look somewhere else.

You won't be disappointed

Pros Cons
Amazing visuals Repetitive gameplay
Awesome audio  
Intense action  
Just plain fun  

Pros: The fluidity of the characters movements are great and add a certain sense of realism to the characters themselves. The graphics could be slightly better, but then again I am just using the regular yellow video cable with my audio being handled by my optical cable. The voice acting is great for pretty much all of the characters although Capell (the main character) can get annoying at times. The battles are engaging enough with your party's AI responding well to situations that arise in battle (healing, resurrecting, magic & physical attacks...). The music is always a big point for me in any video game, especially RPG's and the music in this game is excellent.

Cons: The story is definitely cliche with having to save the world and all that, but if you can get past, which isn't hard, then you have a great game on your hands. Capell's ignorance is annoying and his voice acting is average. More emphasis should of been placed on the main character, but if you can get past that as well its not too bad.

All in all its a great game. Its a shame that this game didn't sell as well as it should have. I don't think that you will be disappointed in it. It does have its downfalls but they are not major. Definitely worth a purchase.

On another note, maybe its just me, but some of the music reminds me of Secret of Mana for the SNES, just updated to sound nicer.

Infinite Undiscovery, a good rpg.

Pros Cons
Amazing visuals Poor storytelling
Addictive gameplay  
Just plain fun  

For some reason, when I first started playing this game, I said to myself, this reminds me of Legend of Zelda. While the main character might not be as cool or popular as Link, it was the way the game looked that made me think that way. Wait a minute, I know what your thinking, but Legend of Zelda games have always been last gen, and the visuals on the Wii arent near as good as 360's visuals. True, Infinite Undiscovery does have amazing visuals, but it was the environments and items along the way that were simliar to that of a Zelda game. Especially treasure chest and what you find inside them. And the way you fight your enemies is very similar also. Its not a turned based system, rather its a lock on an enemy and use the A and B buttons to combo your way to a victory. It works very well and is very easy to use, even though some of the bosses you fight arent that easy. Story is the only thing that keeps me from giving this game a perfect score. You start off in prison, while your in your cell, a young girl breaks you out. So you escape from the prison only to find out that you look exactly like someone else, and the girl that sprung you made a mistake. Anyway, she tells you about the evil that has come across the land and you meet her "gang" and finally decide to join and help the good fight. Its not a bad story, but there arent many surprises, and you kind of know what to expect next. If your looking for a good rpg for your dollar, look here. It'll keep you entertained for a while.

Awesome, to my suprise!

Pros Cons
Engaging story Annoying audio
Loads of content  
Intense action  
Addictive gameplay  
Tight controls  

I borrowed this game from my cousin, expecting it to be another next gen letdown to the RPG genre. It's actually quite fun. The story center around Capel, a young flute player who happens to look like a warrior named Sigmund. I won't reveal anything more about that. Anyways, the Dreadknight and his evil Order of the Chains, have chained up the moon and it is causing sickness and disease all over the world. Sigmund, the Liberator, is thought to be the only man to be able to break these chains, and Capel get mixed up with him, simply because they look alike.

Graphics: Nothing Special. Hardly takes advantage of thre 360, but is detailed and colorful enough to be pleasing to the eye.

Sound: The music is wonderful, as you'd expect from a Square Enix game. The voice acting is good too, but it's so annoying when half the cutscenes in the game don't use voiceovers and you have to read text instead while the characters move their mouths.

Gameplay: Battle system is very action oriented. You press all the attack buttons yourself like an action game. Your party members usually do their own thing, but you can set them up to act a certain way. Some battles you can have 12 people on your side fighting at once!

Overall: A solid RPG, worth checking out without a doubt!

Infinite huh?

Pros Cons
Amazing visuals Poor storytelling
Addictive gameplay  
Just plain fun  

Square Enix can't be accused of not being consistent. Like Final Fantasy, they give you a pretty fun game to play with corny cliches and an ending not hardly worth the effort. The visuals were awesome, and characters interesting, but the AI could have been better. There were not much surprises. You can take out a checklist and fill it out during gameplay...surpise princess? check. spell casting kiddies? you bet. Despite being able to guess the plot like an M Knite Shamilan movie, it does keep you entertained. It may not be the best RPG out there but it's not the worst.

invinite divided by zero

Pros Cons
Intense action Doesn't live up to expectations

if failue had a name it was infinte indiscovery. The box looked cool so did the preview but then again so did speed racer. shure it maybe unfaboraly but hey if you gotta buy game from block buster, this would be a secondary choice. Pretty choppy stuff and only it was rich in what i felt it boasted, hey i would give 5 stars. But hey if you get this for free dont shun it, it wasa good try though.
