Finally some full priced tactical rpg that resembles the original Front Mission and Final Fantasy Tactics. There aren't too many titles under this genre on the 360, so I'll definitely buy this one.
I love Valkyria Chronicles for PS3 and PSP. That series led me to hearing about Operation: Darkness. Operation Darkness doesn't look bad from what I'm looking at now. If I ever get a 360, I'll probably get this!
the world would be sooo boring without war, it gives you the ultimate high promising one thing, uncertainty for the many battles you will fight and when its all over you look back and say I survived what many could not or thank God for your very life that you hold in the end of the great crucible
i agree with vnvanman there's nothing more that pisses me off then people saying a game sucks just because the graphics aren't' perfect, this game is sooooo awesome, it's about the SS (i'm german and my Grandfather was in the SS) and its about werewolves, i love it it's great. Play it before judging it.
I heard that this game got a bad review which pisses me off. IGN, X-play, etc., none of them give any detailed info on what makes the game good and bad. They mainly focus on how bad the graphics and camera are, but neglect to tell anything else about the game. As long as the graphics are decent, I'm fine. Camera problems I can deal with it. All that matters is the gameplay, but it seems some people forgotten all about that.
rofl @ all the butthurt chinks whining about how this shitty game takes intelligence, ect. this is by far the worst game to come out in the past 2 years
IGN don't know shit about games really. they play the game for about 1 day, if that, and then give their "opinion" of it. play it yourself or rent it before giving an opinion of it. I'm gonna buy this game soon.
seriously don't waste your money on this game, i downloaded the demo as a joke, this has to have the worst voice acting of any game out there and terrible graphics
For Tips I Kill Needle And Have Lancelot And Gallant Camp Near His Dead Body And Rob Needle's Dead Body Cause He Got Some Rockets But Not As Strong As The Rockets You Buy But Hey Use Em If You Got Em :P
and is a decent rpg game, the magic stuff is not so recurrent as some people think, the camera is a crap but well... i couldnt´t find another mistake on this game
I agree, the camera is terrible. All they need is some kind of overhead view you can switch to on one button press and the game would be MUCH more playable.
They have rules for games when they are being developed. In call of duty 2 they actually didn't allowed them to have a stage without a weapon. so it's not the developers fault that they had to censor it.
So what, Return to Castle Wolfenstein had Supernatural element in it also. Henrich 1 as the undead warrior and had sick experimental stuff, also don't forget SS Paranomal division.
I just tried the demo for this game and it is amazing. I couldn't complete it since a tank kept blowing me up but this game was great. I can't wait for this game to come out does anyone know when it is going to be released?
Odd someone said Valkyria Chronicles was a rip off of this game so I went to look it up, game looks inferior in all ways. O.o; Still looks neat though, always wanted a WWII RPG. lol
Good job of proving how ignorant you are about this game, and how invalid you opinions are. Its not a shooter in the slightest, its a strategy RPG through and through. And the WWII setting hardly makes it a "war" game; its setting is a fantasy similar to Shadow Hearts which takes place during WWII and adds supernatural elements to it; its not a "war" game. Likewise, your opinion sounds just like a fanboy rant, and if you'd open your eyes, you'd see 360 is way more than a shooter console.
Delarge, you don't know what you're talking about, and your rant reeks of fanboy bias. Do a little research before you rant. This game isn't AT ALL a shooter. Its a strategy RPG completely, calling it a war game is ridiculous. Its as much about WWII as Shadow Hearts was about the roaring 20's. Its a fantasy which adds supernatural elements to the WWII setting. And get off the BS about 360 being a shooter console. That's become so far from the truth that saying it just makes you sound ignorant.
The gameplay basically works like FF Tactics or any of the Atlus or Nippon Ichi strategy RPG titles. If you've played any of those games, then that's about what to expect. Also, I agree, this game looks awesome, so glad that Atlus is bringing it to North America.
Hopefully game companies will exploit more contemporary events not just world war 2 but Vietnam and perhaps the recent war in Afghanistan and Iraq for newer breed of S-RPG rather than the cliche medieval themes we've seen for several dozen times.
More like Medal of Honor, Call of Duty, Brothers in Arms, and Castle Wolfenstein meets Final Fantasy more like it. I can tell Success (the developer)must have took influence from these WW2 game (since they earn greatest hits and Platinum in Japan). I wonder if they put an homage to the series like I don't know Michael Giacchino (composer of MOH and COD music) music has been used in Operation Darkness. I wish they could make a port of this for the PS3.

If you want a interesting game pick up Persona 3 for PS2.
Operation Darkness is your generic shooter game with anime characters. This doesn't changed on anything, 360 is still the hardcore shooter console.
