Reviews - Super Nintendo - Breath of Fire

You start the game in a burning village, as a member of The Light Dragon family, your village was attacked by members of The Dark Dragon family (no way, Light vs. Dark that is soooo original), who in their possession hold the goddess keys, which have the power to release the goddess Tyr from her prison. Now these key are scattered around the world (Back then key chains didn’t exist).I will leave you to discover the story from here. On to the audio and video! The graphics, well, the graphics really are something. For a game this old you have to wonder what did they do to make the graphics so good. The only problem lies in animation, you see sometimes the characters will slide across the ground, like they are floating or something like that, which can get a bit annoying when your characters are floating over the ground and you can’t pass a river without a bridge. The music is really something. There is a whole bunch of tracks for every town, dungeon, forest ...you enter, and not a single one of them is play by a synthesizer. Of course they still sound a bit strange. The gameplay is a story for itself. Let me explain! You travel around the main map, encountering random (Final Fantasy like) battles –which is not odd since Squaresoft made this. In battles each characterhas its turn in which he may attack (me big, me strong, me stupid!), use magic (RadaDeCabraCohusCuspo), defend, or use items. Nothing beats the main map hunting tough.

[I've got the POWER!]

[Quake control! I must get that for Quake 3!]

[Splinter Cell part of the game]

And here are the final numbers (scale 1-10):
Graphics: 8
The look of the game is excellent, but I am so annoyed by the laziness of designers and beta testers that allowed (some) non-animated walks.
Sound: 9
The quantity of music in this game is awesome, it is the quality of some that is the problem.
Gameplay: 10
One word describes it: MASTERPIECE
Altogether kind of grade: 9
I just can’t stop thinking about some lousy sounds and bad animation, that put aside, you JUST HAVE TO PLAY THIS GAME. WHY ARE YOU STILL READING THIS, GO TO SNES ROMS SECTION AND DOWNLOAD THIS GAME!!!
