Can't review because it won't run on XBOX360, yet. I've heard a lot of praise for this game. Looking forward to an update which allows this game, Sudeki, to run on XBOX360.Sudeki Probably, a good gift for an original XBOX owner who likes RPG's.

This game keeps one on their toes and is very involved my kids all love this game and I myself enjoy playing it. There is violence so young kids really should have an adult preview it first. Otherwise very nice game.

Here's the thing, folks. The main reason Sudeki has been underrated by so many people is that the developer is not Japanese. Lovers of traditional Japanese rpgs are ready to poo all over Sudeki simply because it is the work of a western developer. What they fail to see is that Sudeki is anything other than a traditional rpg, and thus should not be compared to traditional rpgs. Sukeki is a brilliant mix of traditional rpg and action/adventure. It controls like action/adventure and yet features a deep combat system that allows you to switch between four different characters and direct their combat style. While the combat is not turn-based, it is still reminiscent of traditional rpgs because the action slows to bullet time when you change weapons, use an item, or unleash a magical attack. Some strategic planning is required every time you go into a battle because there are so many variables that influence how the battle plays out, as well as its outcome. You have to know your weapons, characters, enemies, spells, and items very well. So you don't have to worry about Sudeki being shallow.

The only blemish on this beautiful gem of a game is that the melee combat controls for Tal and Buki are sluggish and unresponsive. Also, the camera does not work as well as it should for melee combat. Given time and practice, it is possible to overcome these deficiencies, but they should have been ironed out in testing. Most of the time you don't even have to play as your melee fighters. You can play as Elco or Ailish, who do all of their fighting in first-person. In this way you act as kind of a director, watching the action unfold, helping each fighter as they need it, and unleashing Skill Strikes when things get a bit too hairy.

The graphics and animations in Sudeki are top notch. It is clearly one of the best looking Xbox games ever made. Visual effects for magical attacks are heart-breakingly beautiful. The writing and voice acting is high caliber, and the story is quite unique. Do yourself a favor and stop listening to all the voices in the media that tell you what you should and should not like. Give Sudeki a chance and I think you will be rewarded.

This is one of the original Xbox games that shows off the true power of its graphics. Unfortuneately it doesn't work with the Xbox 2, but it is still an awesome game. The storylines is one of the best for an RPG that we have ever played. An all time favorite in our house.
