That game rightly deserves this title.

What were the scores for the other big games, namely Panzer Dragoon? It must have been pretty close.

How comes Panzer Dragoon beat SoA:L in 2 departments, also draw in two, but score lower? (I'm talking about Visuals, Sound etc...).

I guess I don't get their rating system.

Ah well, I'm not complainin or anything, I know one of them is amazing, and the other said to be brilliant. Can't wait to try out SoA:L and see what's new, and also play PDO.

The editor's score is their personal opinion. The others are more technical reviews. They average the editor's score for a final score.

GCN will finally have a solid RPG with a good story. Too bad we won't be seeing another one until FF:CC or Tales Of Phantasia.

You don't consider PSO a solid RPG?

Well, PSO isn't that great story wise. And you need to play online to experience it's highest potential. But it's still really fun to play.

Yay for Skies of Arcadia, hopefully it finally gets the respect it deserves as one of the most balanced RPGs. I hope these additions and modifications help to make this game a true classic. I'll probably pick it up once again for GCN.
