Unfortunately an evil demon spirit has been released and has left destruction in its wake and Toran must harness the spirit of those destroyed to rebuild the lands in time for an epic confrontation.

So much replayability with the amount of weapons to level up and RNG dungeons! Sony exclusive left us xbox dwellers with much to desire. Really hope this whole series makes it so I can finally play the sequel.
Absolutely loved this game when I was a kid would play this for hours on end. Has a very good storyline and definitely worth being able to play again would love to have the chance again. This along with Blue Dragon were amazing games to play.

One of the best games on Ps2 Alongside Dark Cloud 2 and Draken: The Ancient Gates. Play it, it's worth it. Unless you do 100%, than it's a lot of fishing. Although I enjoyed the fishing, it's just tedious to grind bait.

Ratchet & Clank
Ratchet & ClankRatchet & Clank is a platform/adventure game in a similar vein to the 3D versions of the Rayman, Sonic, Mario, or other games. It involves the two protagonists Ratchet, a furry alien creature, and Clank, a nerdy little robot, going on a quest to find Captain Qwark and ultimately to help save the galaxy. Ratchet & Clank includes many of the best features of previous similar games, but makes itself unique in a number of ways. Firstly each of the game's levels are huge sweeping vistas with extremely detailed buildings which are visible at all times (i.e. there is no distance fog). This means that a building on the horizon is not just a "backdrop"; in all likelihood Ratchet will be exploring it in a few moments time. Secondly, the game includes a number of sub-games, such as a space fight sequence and a number of turret shoot-outs which are akin to Missile Command in the first person. The game has over twenty levels (planets) and includes as many real-time cut-scenes which tell the story. Also of note is that the story is non-linear, requiring the player to return to previous levels to complete objectives and to choose between multiple paths forward. There is also a respectable array of weapons, gadgets, and accessories to find or buy as the game progresses, which offer some unique gameplay features.
