Re: 694: Judgment
I often wondered why more game series don't do more of what Judgement did, using the same map but changing character and tweaking genre. It seems something Insomniac could do with their Spider-Man New York. Anyway, I am a long time Ryu Ga Gotoku series fan since I bought the original when I first moved to Japan, despite not understanding the language at the time at all.
Despite loving the games, I was ready for the promised switch up to detective work. While there is really very little of this in practice, any inclusion at all adds a slightly different tone and variety. The stealth sections are so simple as to be essentially pointless and some of the mini-games fall flat but I would rather they at least try out things like that. I also feel this is one of the most accessible entries in the universe both because it is a fresh start and is comparatively short, emphasis on the "comparatively".
The casting of one of the biggest celebrities in Asia with Takuya Kimura and his variety of kung fu style fighting mixes well with his interest in martial arts and in a way even his history dancing in a boy band. It is a shame that said casting of Takuya Kimura is why the series couldn't continue, a problem due more to his typically Japanese style controlling management rather than the man himself I am sure. That being said, I dont see why they couldnt go on with another star actor perhaps with a foot in another genre.
Anyway I hope RGG Studios continue to experiment with the formula a little and I suppose they are, since the next game involves being a high seas pirate!
