Graphics 9 -> While not the best looking game in the ps2 it's definitely an improvement from previous games, world is beautiful, some characters have good detail while others could be a little better. Gameplay 10 -> Turn based RPG with a unique and refreshing battle system called the Judgement Ring, beautiful towns with interesting side quests for each party member that never feels repetitive, amazing dungeons that never drags or feels to long with some interesting puzzles and a dark mysterious atmosphere.
