Riviera: The Promised Land

[wraggster]

Newly released game at Play Asia



1000 years have passed since Ragnarok, the war between Asgard, realm of the gods, and Utgard, home of the demons. Recently, the floating island of Riviera has been showing signs of the demons' return. With the gods no longer present , another Ragnarok would mean certain doom for Asgard. The decision had been made to evoke the Retribution and destroy Riviera ; the Grim Angels Ein and Ledah were appointed as the executors of this task . Now, two angels descend upon the Promised Land...

Is that a port of the two-year-old GBA game, or a sequel?

get a Final Fantasy PS1 eboot, that's the best Rpg's (not talking about MMORPG, as I don't like what they do to your social life)

well if ya don't like this or Final Fantasy look for Breath of Fire 3 as i much prefer to play BOF 3 on my psp than a crappy Final Fantasy game cause they suck.

its a remake, well a port with some additions like complete voice-acting, a bonuslevel, more sprites and probably some things i forgot.

have played all FF on my PSXPSP
hmm. will try BoF3

true i do like the voice acting in this game but it has so many little irritations like:
no option to 'wait' or 'skip go' of specific PC.
no real explanation of skills breakdown, e.g. STR-UP you guess means strength up but what is GTR-BD ????
you can only choose 4 items for a fight - TOTAL!
your formation (if more than 2 people) has to have someone on the back row. You cannot have 3 players on the front row - why not when there is space?
etc etc.
