I played it, invested 80 some odd hours into it, and ultimately beat it. Did I have fun? yeah. lots to do? yeah. cool boss fights? yeah. sidequests? yeah.

Would I ever play it again? No.

It has no replay value. The story is boring, the characters do not have enough development, and the ending is guaranteed to piss you off. So, while there's a lot to do, and while the graphics are nice, and while it's a long involved game, overall it lacks a lot, and you'll probably agree that one play-through is more than enough.

Graphics - 6/10
Cut Scenes - 7/10
Game Play - 6/10
Character Development - 3/10
Story - 3/10
Difficulty - 3/10

Rent it for a few days before buying it.
