Not A Game For Scaredy Cats

This is one of the best games I've played on Playstation! Although this game may not be a little gorey... (okay, REALLY gorey) how can you downgrade it for that? I thought the graphics were excellent, Rion was hot (hey, as a girl I can appreciate that), and the plot was movie worthy. For those of you who haven't played this game, I would just like to say, "Expect the unexpected!" Whether it's guys jumping you in your own house or Cain being a "little" blunt, you will be surprised. I really liked the music. Not so much the rave stuff at the beginning, but the creepy music hit a bullseye. The characters range from 14 years old to 18 years old. Lilia, a 14 year old, (who is the same age as Rion) is a girl with telepathic powers. You get to actually control her later on in the game. Rion can burn people alive, crack their skulls, or lift them in the air and throw them onto the ground.

Now for the bad stuff. Filling the levels with hard bosses and easy enemies is really dumb. And the ages??? In Japan, pedophilia might be okay, but I'd rather be working with an older Rion. It's hard to envision someone my age attacking human beings. Other than that, GREAT!

A perfect game

The sole reason why I gave this game four stars is due its length. Although a three CDs game, it does not live up to that. The first CD contains two areas to explore, and being three CDs long, I at first thought each CD contained two areas. Unfortunately, the second and third CDs include one area each.

But don't let this disappoint you; Rion's house and the Hotel are more than enough to play this game. Really, that hotel was something creepy; knowing that the guests are dying one by one (and even creepier, knowing how they died) builds up enough atmosphere.

Another point. The reviewer from Boston, Mass. had to read the instruction manual before playing. You need to take your pills in order to avoid that kind of events, not that Crave did that intentionally.

STUNNING GAME !!!

This game was great. But its not for the younins. You play some kid I forgot his name but then again so did he. He has no memory you wake up in what look like a hospital room that was trashed. Than some guys came in the room and just berst into flame. How you. You have pryrocantic power. But to use them you need drugs there are some diferent drug each give you different powers.
NALCON - green. shockwave
RED - red. fire blast
FELON - blue. anti-gravity.
Grafics - 8
Sound - 7
controls- 6

Story - 8 1/2

Not a good game.

I rented this game and with in the first 2 minutes of game play I was horrified. Rion, the main character, woke up in a bed just after having needles put into his neck. Then he got up and went into a different room, talked to a person and blew off his head (with his blood spraying all over him and the room) and opened another door. Here he found himself in a hall way and three more people were there, hiding their heads between their knees pleading for mercy. He walked up to them and two of there heads blew off. The third one stood up and had a sloow painful death, with his face blown away and blood spraying every where, then falling to the ground. Blood was every where. I mean what kind of a person plays that and thinks, "Oh this is fun".I'm not against all violent games, for instance I am a big fan of the Final Fantasy series, but the people don't plead for mercy and then have their heads blow off in that. What I am really trying to get at here is that Crave shouldn't make games like that. I mean when someone pleads for mercy I really don't want to kill them, and THEN their heads blow off. What does that make you think? Might as well just go shoot some people with a magnum. DON'T PLAY THIS GAME IF YOU WANT TO STAY SANE.

Great Game But Lacks In Difficulty

This game is great. The graphics are good ad it is very fun. Although this is true, it is extremely difficult. When you get towards the end of the game you find yourself restarting the game a lot because you died.

Lets see i would say this game is pretty good

Actually if i could i would give this game a 31/2. To me this isn't the worst game,but it also isn't the best game I've played. Yes there is gore and yes peoples heads do get blown up, but hey i like gore and i think its funny when they're heads get blown up, cause I mean they try and kill you anyway, its not they're these completely innocent people begging for mercy. Plus some of them are robots and mutant things so who cares if they die. I guess I am what you call a somewhat desensitized person, so if are sensitive to violence i guess i could tell you to stay away from this game along with all the other "mature" rated games, cause they can be disturbing at times. The controls on this game are somewhat annoying but you get used to them pretty quick. Oh yeah when you see your AP bar blinking go up to any enemy and press R1 and........ i'll leave what it does as a surprise. Just be sure to have Delemetor before you do this or else you'll most likely die. I would never actually buy this game, well i recommend renting it first and if you get so addicted that you just can't help yourself go ahead and buy it, all i can say is that i didn't really get hooked on it. Now Final Fantasy 8! Thats a game i got so addicted to, that it was actually scary. I would highly recommend that to everyone, and people who are somewhat sensitive to gore. I totally had to buy that game,it still remains the best game on my rack,~sigh. Ahhum anyway......... the truth is i had never heard of this game before, instead i just saw it on the rack at the video store after i found out all the games i wanted to rent were picked over. So i gave it a try and yes it was pretty good,yes it has good graphics,and yes it is original. It is a good time waster so just rent it first thats all i can say.

WORST GAME EVER

This game is horrible. It has terrible play control and a poor story line. If you buy it you WILL be disapointed. The play control is the worst I have ever seen for a game. You have lame powers and no real attack except for your lame powers. It has good graphics, but thats it. over all this is the WORST GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED.

JUST COULDN'T GET THE HANG OF IT

I started GALERIANS several times to get the hang of it. It is back in the trade in store where I got it. I found GALERIANS to be rather imature to say the least.
The fact that the chemicals that controlled him were most irritating to have to use. Not being able to control him during his time of blowing his cool when he could have done the most damage to enemies was ridiculous.
I got to the third level where he's in his back yard with running in circles and his enemy is bombing him and his temper is going up and up. After enemy shoots at him 50 times than it's his turn to fight back with a character that keeps disappearing. Well, by then he sends off his powerful whatever to kill enemy but by that time you cannot control him an of course he dies each time this happens. Don't like games where you don't have a fighting chance.
Collecting pills and other objects. Only have so much space which means you throw away something to pick up something more useful. Sorry, didn't like this at all.
