Breath of Fire III

tridrakious's Breath of Fire III (PlayStation) review

Wish more of the Breath of Fire games were like this.

I will admit I have not played this game in a long time, but I still remember a lot about it. I know that this game got me deeply into games and Sony related products. When I played this game for the first time I was so taken away I could not believe what I was playing.

Gameplay: This game by todays standards is just another RPG Final Fantasy clone, but back then this game could stand on it own. For me this game can always stand on its own thanks to the combat system. In a previous review of mine on this game, I said it was the first PS1 game I had played. Well that's not true, I've played countless games before this one, but for some reason this game stood out to me back them and it still stands out to me now.

Graphics: Once again by todays standards this game is horrible, but back then this game looked pretty good. Nothing about the graphics was groundbreaking, but they still looked very good for a Playstation 1 game.

Audio: The audio in the game is very well put together. There is a few points when the game seems to not know when to play what song. There was one time during a cut-scene when you are about to fight the 2 Stallion people, the game changed the music 3 different times in about a 4 to 5 second time frame.

Value: Once playing through once you might want to play it again just to play it again. The game is that good.

However, many of the ideas it tries to implement either are of little consequence or flawed in some way, shape, or form.Breath of Fire III starts with the protagonist caught in a magic crystal, confused, not sure of what is going on or where to go. Soon, however, he unites with two young thieves and the g...

Capcom’s Breath of Fire games have never been top shelf material. The main selling point is a hero who can transform into a dragon, and Capcom’s signature 2d sprite-work. Despite owning all the games in the series, I’d only ever completed the original SNES game, when I decided to start Breath of Fire 3. Story The story has some nice ideas, and sort of delves into the history of how the Brood were hunted down, but is bogged down by cliched scenarios. You will compete in a battle tournament, vi...
