Seems like Square Enix released some nice titles for PSP this month!

I wouldn't exactly call it a sequel to Parasite Eve. But as a shooter it's pretty fun.
Speaking of SE, did they re-name FFXIII Agito to Type-0?
Same reason that Nintendo calls all of it's projects 'revolution' prior to release, then has a press conference to unveil a really HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE name. It's a jap thing. (lolwii)

lol, I see. It's still for PSP though, right? D: I need more PSP FF games ._.
This game is actually pretty saddening overall :/. They have strayed so far from their RPG roots >.<, I honestly hope the next one is a direct sequel on a HD platform and it delivers. This is like a 3rd person shooter game, not much to it and I heard they did some bad things with the story. They need to also include Mitochondria Eve as the main antagonist if they do a direct sequel for PE3 -.-, her battle with Aya made it the game it was imo. This is still a fun game though, just nothing compared to the old PE games. Also, as always, the music is A+. Arriving home and PE1 remixes ftw.
Heard, and tested myself, that PEIII is incredibly terribad. Its basically a mediocre Third-Person Shooter that gutted everything I(we as a population) Loved about Parasite Eve.
And then threw in a mash of dead animal parts they call "gaming" and blended it into a Video game nugget of fail.
Its a terrible game, Not worth the buy :\, Its sad too, cause Parasite Eve 1/2 are some of the few PS1 games i actually continue to play out of enjoyment.
More power to you if you buy it, I'm just giving people a heads up, if you liked PE1/2, You'll hate this. Unless you enjoy mediocre content :(
edit: Oh, and the music was okay, Not the best work, But definitely decent :D
I'll be honest though, having to jump bodies kinda kept me at the edge of my seat at some points. If this was a whole different game(With a different main character) maybe it would be more enjoyable.

I think the experience my vary from person to person, for example, critics laud Mass Effect 2 as one of the greatest third person rpg-ish out there. Fallout 3 is another good example. Two games I think are excellent. On the other hand, I've seen reviews that try to crucify the game into something the person who played didn't like. But that's just one man's opinion... I personally wanna give it a whirl, to see if it has thrills akin to the aforementioned games.

Maybe, It felt like a ... more mediocre version of the Ghost In The Shell game.
Feels like they milked a franchise name to sell an overall Mediocre game. I think you're right, if they hadn't named it "Parasite Eve" it probably wouldn't be getting as harshly reviewed =x

Go ahead :) I'm not stopping you, I'm only saying if you go into this game expecting it to be as good, or even half as good as the first time games, You will be sadly sadly dissapointed.
Almost the only thing it has in Common with PE1/2 is its Franchise name. Almost all other aspects that made PE what it is have been stripped and the game is nearly completely different.
Again, Feel free to buy it :)! I was just offering my and, from what i can gather, the majority of PE fans, Opinions on it
You should all buy it anyway >.>. That way they see people still love PE and they decide the time to make PE3 on a ps3 is worth it.
I read that too!
But if they make the game with the same engine/playstyle as the PE3 it'll just be another Abortion of a game that disgraces what I loved about the other two :(, Except it'll have better graphics and a longer story.
My opinion is obviously not everyones... So i do suggest buying it if only to play and judge for yourself. even a sale > Return is better than no sale. Might get us a game that redeems the series.
Kind of thinking, and no this isn't exactly a spoiler. She starts out with amnesia. So I wonder if she's forgotten how to use her PE abilities? And if some how her mitochondria allow her to soul jump through space and time? It makes no sense though, I mean game wise mitochondria could at least have a theory for the combustion, necrosis, healing, etc. Space and time travel I'm not so sure..

Was a Resident Evil control clone any better though? Say they used the 3rd Birthday controls as a battle system only as opposed to the way Parasite Eve was during fights.

I personally love the first one but the 2nd wasn't bad at all. Nothing will ever beat the first one though imo (unless a new one obviously) out of the three out now. Too many FPS meatheads in this day and age though, they hate the older slower battle systems like ATB... I really enjoyed PE 1 though, especially the story.

Yes, I do kinda think the games Roaming/Combat Systems were fine as a core.
My Opinion Is that they should have looked to improve on the Systems of 1 and 2, Not throw it out the window and Rehaul it from basically scratch. Thats it. The game is just so wildly different I think they shouldn't have named it a Parasite Eve game. As in my opinion it doesn't feel like one.
Improve on the "Resident Evil" Control scheme to be more fluid, But keep the core design in tact.
PE3 Just basically rebuilt the game from scratch, keeping the Main Character/Title the same.
Heck even the main character lost a lot of her uniqueness and became just a TPS generic Main character.
The game really feels like it lost a lot of its uniqueness and became just a generic Third-Person-Shooter. Thats my complaint :|

Actually, the reason Agito got changed to Type-0 is because the game no longer had anything to do with the XIII mythos.
As for Nintendo changing console names, pretty much all products do that.
Kinect was Natal initially and the PSP2's current name is the NGP which will undoubtedly change.

A crack at the industry constantly renaming products out of left field is moronic how? If you don't understand wry jokes, I would suggest reactivating your sarcasm radar.

I think he's referring to how almost every post you make is totally HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE.
The gameplay looks fun, but I heard it's what you do the entire game; doesn't get any fresher at any point.
It seems previous players of this series are the only ones complaining though since it basically took a huge spin. People (like me) that have never heard of Parasite Eve enjoy it.
