    This game is almost like Demon's Souls, it's not getting the attention it deserves. Why is this?

    @xXDiabloFanXx: Because there are 5 people who work at Giant Bomb, only 3 of them are really reviewers. You'll notice that quite a few games don't get reviews. Which is totally fine.

    I believe Gamespot had a positive review of it it when it came out.

    From what I have watched on Youtube, this game looks like a pretty solid JRPG.  It does seem to be falling under the radar though. =\

    This game is nothing like Demon's Souls... Also, the Giant Bomb crew has an almost universal dislike bordering on hate for JRPGs.

    How about next time you play a game or watch a video before throwing out what it plays like...

    I think you answered your own question by saying, " This game is almost like Demon's Souls".

    @NinjaHunter:@Doctorchimp:@SuperfluousMoniker:  He meant that it's similar to Demon's Souls because Giant Bomb isn't paying attention to it. Not that they're similar games.

    Also @xXDiabloFanXx:  Giant Bomb only has 5 guys who review games and they focus more of their attention on the big stuff. It also doesn't help that this game came out with absolutely no fanfare or exposure. They probably don't even know it exists.

    PlasmaBeam44 is ABSOLUTELY right. And please before you go off acting like I'm a incompetent 13 y/o moron thinking that I can't tell the difference between DS and RH, think again. I have DS and I know damn well how both play. So try and think OUTSIDE  of the box next time idiots.

    Six threads, under 120 posts, and like 2000 total views leads me to believe interest on GiantBomb isn't really enough for make it a high-priority action item.

    Because Giantbomb needs to spend more time covering JRPGs, especially DS ones. Atlus or not, too much work for too little reward. You shouldn't be begging for a review of a game, either get the game or stop being a site content whore.

    @CaptainCody:  Did I say I was WANTING a review? NO! I was merely asking where the review was. But now seeing that the crew at GB doesn't like JRPG's it makes sense that they have no idea or if at all any interest with this game.

    Why would you post about the lack of a review if you didn't want one? It's not like this is Red Dead Redemption. You shouldn't really expect one.

    I wouldn't say it's "totally fine" but that is indeed the situation. I'm sure they're knee-deep in Portal 2 and Mortal Kombat and the like, but it's been nearly three weeks since the last review and that was from Alex, so, I don't think they've exactly been swamped in reviews and unable to focus on something else. (Hell, the last Ryan review was over two months ago.)

    Jesus, Giant Bomb isn't going to review this just like they don't review most games ;p.  I think it is hilarious someone insinuated they review only the "big stuff" though.  They have reviewed plenty of small time and or crap games that were just if not more under the radar than this one.  I think they just review whatever they get for free, or consider good enough to spend their own money on. 

    That aside it is a good game with a fairly strong story though nothing too crazy.  It is actually fairly similar to chrono trigger in a lot of ways though it has a very different combat system that is actually unique for jrpg's.  At least I have never seen any other game use a system like it.  So if you like JRPG's, don't mind it being a DS game, and want something with a more "old school" snes type feel to it then it is a great game and I would advise buying it.

    NFS shift 2 had like 6 threads by release date but it still got a quicklook and bombcast mention. There's no coverage for this game because people who care about it don't exist.
