When I just started to play I was already addicted to the game. The bosses look good(exept for that ugly boss that cammila makes in the end) and the story is perfect. The best part has to be the fighting style. Its very easy to fight any enemy but some need a certain type of weapon to do great damage and almost all the bosses don't require a complicated plan. Sometimes you might get lossed(you might get lossed a lot in the cave and in New Hiessgart Castle) but you normally find your way out in 10 minutes. All around this game is very fun and very addicting and it is my favorite game right now and I reccomend this game to all Full Metal Alchemist fans out there.

this game is awsome,if your a fan of the series you'll definately like the game, you can use alchemy to make all kinds of weapon and even give the weapons special abilities. The game follows the series well, even if you've never seen the show you'll find this game addicting.The only draw back I found is that Al can't jump very well and the characters run kind of slow, other than that this game is highly recommended.(it's a square enix game so you know it's goning to be good)

this is really good! ^_^

I just got this the other day and it's probably the best I've even seen, and this is coming from a long time IY fan I even have the Cursed mask game (beat it in 4 days and two hours) But it hardly compares to this, I love it, even if I do like IY more, but IY anf FMA are pretty much tied. I was excited when I heard about the game, about two days after I found about the anime and four days after I started reading the Manga. The game is exactly what I cut it out to be and more. I've only just started considering school and all but I'm 20 minutes in and it's already my favorite game. Five stars, sixty billion thumbs up and ten toes. Beat that Spence. I reccommend this game to any and all, as long as you follow the age lines though. (I don't but it's ok.)

Fullmetal Alchemist and the Broken Angel is in short awesome, just like the series on which it is based. It took me about ten hours to complete the fist try of my game, and I've played it over twice in search of treasures I missed, so, as you can see, it has good replay value.

Turning things into weapons was awesome. Who ever knew a lamppost could be so deadly? The graphics were a bit choppy, yes, but I never focused on that aspect. The storyline was the part of the game that pulled me in, and I wanted to cry at the end. If you don't want to cry at the end, you are either heartless, or have paid no attention.

I would give this game ten stars if I could!

my favorite game

More for you hack and slash hack and slash people. It's not like there's no strategy in it though. Alchemy is needed is various places, and it's always useful to know how to beat a boss character without losing 10's of elixers.
The storyline in itself is awesome. If you're not into the game within the first hour or so, you probably won't like the rest of it. The only thing I might warn you about is the cave. If you're hating the game because of the cave (you'll see what I'm talking about later) don't quit. This place was the most frustrating place out of the whole game for me, so don't feel bad if you need a loooooong break when you're stuck inside it.
The gripes I have about the game though... It was a bit too short. It took me 12 hours to finish the whole game. Of course, I probably skipped 100's of treasures, and I got horrible alchemist levels...
The storyline more than makes up for it though. If you don't at least feel like crying at the end of the game... were you watching the whole time?

Overall this was an awesome awewsome game that everyone who's a FMA fan and everyone who just wants an amazing game to play, that doesn't involve incredulous amounts of strategy.
...Keep in mind that this game is rated T for Teen for language and suggestive themes among other things. Emphasis on the suggestive themes on one of the costumes one of the people wear.

Full Metal Alchemist Broken Angel is not as bad as you would think...

Well I was having my doubts about getting this game, because I noticed a lot people did give some bad reviews on it, that it was just plain awful...But in my opinion I thought of this game as rather interesting and entertaining. I believed it had a good and touching story behind it, and all the written dialogue given in it, makes it even more entertaining. I beat this game today, so I thought it would be reasonable to leave this review now.

All can say is if you are fan of Full Metal Alchemist, then this game should be a must for you. It doesn't follow off the anime series, but it has just as much action in it, as does the series. The only CON I would see in this game, is some of boss fighting is a little repetive (sp? repeating), but other then that...Nothing else. The graphics were exceptal to me. The animation clips were awesome, which was one of my favorite things to see in the game. And overall of beating it, I enjoyed it very much. 5 Stars up! I now noticed I can't take all reviews answers from it, so if you are one of those edgy people that has doubts like me, my best advice would be either to buy it or rent it. Luckily I wasn't disappointed when I bought this game, so I kept it. :)

Whether you are a fan of the show or like RPGs, in my opinion this is definitely a five star game.

First off, I should note that if you do not want to know about the story line you should skip this review entirely. I like to be specific and give information but do not worry; I will not give away the big surprises.

First, this game has an amazing story line. Second, the game has a terrific combat system. Also, the characters are very interesting in many different ways.

The story for the series and the game revolves around the Elric brothers, Edward and Alphonse, who are looking for the philosophers stone to remove the effects of an alchemy experiment gone wrong. However, the game does not start at the beginning of the series.

The game starts on a train that is attacked by a band of ex-military alchemists. Then a ruthless senior colonel derails the train. Next, the Elric brothers come to the town of Hiessgart where the famous alchemist, Professor Eiselstein lives. The brothers have visited him several years before and discover that the town has been taken over by viscous beasts. At the town church, they meet the pastor. He informs them that Professor Eiselstein and the town's people have constructed the town of New Hangueist.

In New Hiessgart, they meet a girl named Armony who they later discover is living with Professor Eiselstein. She tells them that the Professor is living in a castle in New Hiessgart. After they arrive at the castle a series of mysterious events takes place that leave questions that must be answered.

The game has an exciting story line with interesting characters that really makes it terrific. The game is filled with interesting realistic conversations that help you solve mysteries and raise new ones.

PPB

Definitely worth the money

I, myself, am addicted to the game.. I'll admit, it wasn't very long, but that doesn't mean it wasn't fun. The plot is good, the fighting style exciting. If you're the kind of person who enjoys strategy games, but doesn't like spending hours on one problem, this is the game for you.
