Well since there isn't any thread for this title on 360 yet I'll just make one.

There's one thing that has been bothering me for a while now, which version is better? I can't seem to get a fair answer to this because most of the time I get is:

1. PS3 - play original
2. PS3 - won't notice the difference (which means there is, but what?)
3. PS3 - no RROD
4. PS3 - free online
5. PS3 - BD

I don't mind the PS3 version if it's superior though, just needed that unbiased clarification

The graphical difference is not noticeable, from what i've seen.

The rest like loading time, frame rate im not too sure.

I supposed the 360 version also covered in 1 disc.

At first very confirm wan this game... But then... Somehow.. The hexes thing and battle system and the super hardness got me bit tentative... So its in pending state.. Thats why... Come come... Give review... No spoiler please..

Just go thru the tutorials, you'll get a hang of the battle basics soon enough.

And if you can, go thru some forums first, there are lots of damn good tips and tricks you might wanna know first before you tore half your hairs.
Plus, you are going to dive into the forums sooner or later because the probability of getting stuck or can't beat one of the boss is pretty damn high.

For those who wanna breeze thru the game, don't wanna crack your heads (saving up brain power for study or work or chick), stay away from this game.

can you point me to those forums discussing the battle system...i had browse the gamefaqs forum but too many threads....

just a quick question, about charging weapon, is there any level like half charge or fully charged?

battle system is complex indeed.

Do you read chinese?
http://bbs.a9vg.com/thread.php?fid=519

On weapon charging, there's no half charge, only single or multiple level charge.

xbox360 and ps3 graphic no difference ar? i never see xbox360 version yet, if got big difference like bayoetta again..then

Resonance of fate is very typical J style RPG. Restrict movement but the fun part is after u master the new battle system in this game, which is the most challenge part too.

if u r newbie to rpg..u may give up in the half way, but if u once u master the complex battle system inside..it is very cool game, and need strategic as well, no simply shoot shoot jump shoot.. .

i play both j style rpg and western rpg, i like the beutiful artwork of resonance of fate.

I hate fanboy-ism, so I really want to counter all the statements there:

1. PS3 - play original
You can do the same for Xbox, everyone(who's cool) does

2. PS3 - won't notice the difference
Bayonetta. Done.

3. PS3 - no RROD
Yeah, but YLOD. New Xboxes don't RROD anymore

4. PS3 - free online
PS3 games are more expensive than XBox games apparently. So if you buy the same amount of games on Xbox as you would for PS3, there'd be just enough left over to buy a 12 month card.

5. PS3 - BD
wat

Lol.. I like this very much... yea... cool people play original..

That's what you get when asking a fanboy, praise the PS3 like god but never get to the point

Anyway I've decided to get the 360 version, should arrive tomorrow

Hey, those are more legit answers to praise the PS3 than "THE GRAPHICS ARE BETTER LOL I'M 12 YEARS OLD"

XBox rulez... (othough I love ps3 too) and I got my avatar a new clothes.. lol...

Waiting RoF price drop...

Welcome to the bright side (as suggested by Soul Calibur 4)

back to the topic....in the game it said you can see your mission/side mission progress in Memo list.
but where is this memo list? i can't find it. the only way i can check my mission is by going to Bulletin board in the guild.
still in chapter 1.

Press Y then "mission memo" or something like that.

my copy should arrived soon. yay!!

My copy has arrived!

Got it from alex_wlh, much much more cheaper than any competitor out there

Xbox one?? How much you get?

RM165

How come so cheap one? O.o

You try to contact alex_wlh, he's a member here. That's the last copy he had on hand, may be the price increase a little by now

question about side quest.


i'm on chapter 3, there's sidequest have to find dude's father. he said his father hang out near town shop, but i can't find him there.
any clue?

talk to the owner of the shop infront of the shop during daytime.
then go to cafe at world map.
talk to the father.
go back to the dude.

enemies,it is the statue..i'm on level 17.

lol.. got the promo soundtrack and also the guide book already..studying the book.. cant wait..hehe. but have to fin FFXIII first.. XD

This post has been edited by lilko: Mar 30 2010, 10:03 PM

what do you mean? the statue got destroyed?

jz finish chapter 1... slow but i enjoy the game

yup....so i end up retrying with full health with the cost of 69000!!!

now i'm on chapter 6 abusing the travelling merchant money tricks.

but i still don't understand on how to deploy station hex. it keep giving me "energy station cannot be erected here".

Energy station can only be used after all tiles are opened AND on certain hex terrain (non closed road, forest path or others where you can encounter enemies).

may i know when english version out?

A week or 2 ago

I wonder hows the sale.. Hopefully its a good one.. It really went under radar...

the best jrpg i ever play huhu

keep dieing on the boss but i never giveup hehe

tips
better to lvlup other weapon too so u gain lvl faster lol

Sure or not? How do you rate this game from 1 to 10? If compare to Star Ocean 4. Which one is better?

Magna Carta 2 makes me wanna sleep.

Star Ocean 4 is torturing.

Kinda phobia with JRPG already.

Well, star ocean and magna is bit boring for me.. RoF.. Like evryone said... Once you master the technique and understand the gameplay.. Its an awesome game.. The game is kinda easy.. well, atleast in the first few chaps.. But from chap 3, its getting hard.. But You cant replay and die as many time you wan.. cuz need money.. lol..thats The only downside of it.. ) But..Seriously.. If you like small small side stories that talk about some casual life of the character have.. Which to me. It feels kinda like.. The end is coming but all you can do is go on with your life and not worry about it.. Cuz u can do nothing... And also the short cute cutscenes is kinda heartwarming I'd say, doing mini jobs and things like that.. Interaction btwn the members... If you like it, then You will like this game.. Be sure to buy the guide.. If you dun wana have a gruesome experience.. It helps allot allot!!! If not u will spend duno how many hours not knowing wat to do.. The fights have to depends on your fighting style.. And you have to think.. Cannot simply push button..

Verdict: A 9/10 from me..

this game so good meh?

heard it lousy, lol

Well, don't question if you didn't try it personally.

Every game also has people saying it's good as sex or bad as toad shit.

To me it is better than the recent jrpgs, SO4, MG2, TLR...

after hours trying arena now i know how to use tri and smackdown attk effectively.

cn beat 20lvl higher than me huhu

anyone know what mob drop gasoline huhu

9.5/10 from me

Tempted to get one already... = =

Remember not to enter red squares battle recklessly... if can, save first, because there is no turning back, you NEED to beat the enemies. Most are easy enough, but some that offer bezel shards can be ridiculously hard, or simply impossible if you don't grind level and weapon at all.

I once stepped inside a square with three lvl74 giants, while my team is lvl4x, took me a dozen times to beat them, luckily.

I'm interested on this game. Looks promising.. But one question to those who already bought it, there's 3 main characters right but who is the real leading character? Zephyr?

wan ask.. how do u actually grind? how many time u go arena battle? cuz the level up take like super long.. and then i can't defeat the level 6 in chapter 3 even 4.. and even the mission to take dwn the rebels.. all level 16.... somemore cause my hp go low very fast.. cant use hero gauge.. how u defeat thm? can give advice?? thanks...

Ok, actually you can finish the game without grinding,but you need to know how to play around the battle system, like how to draw fire to allow back shot, how to stop multiple enemies from firing by launch them into air with good timing, remember enemy hp to fully scratch multiple enemies in a single IS etc etc etc.

Anyway, i don't do arena that often, it's kinda boring, i just do all until 3 to unlock the next rank. The key is to level all three weapon skills. When i play missions, i use the main weapon, then when i grind for item i use secondary weapon. My secondary weapon skills are about 1/3 of my main weapon skill, ie machine gun 40, handgun 15, grenade 15.

There are a lot of items you need to grind, like ingredients for weapon parts and the city tiles, so they are plenty of chances you will level your secondary weapon skills.

i'm on chapter 15 now with my team average level 70....and i don't do grinding...but i complete all side quests.
at level 70 i pay a visit to the 3 mad goliath on red hex and they are pretty easy now(before i went to critical condition after 3 turns
when i fight them at level 50).

I grind till I overspend my money... Lolz.. Now, have to go arena make money.. GOSH!!! This is really.. lol.. ganbateh to me~~~

what chapter are you? if you're on chapter 6 and above, you can exploit the traveling merchant for easy money. you can get millions in 30 minutes.
and if you have already 1 or 2 million, you can get 800 000 every 5 minutes.

The first few chapters can not be that hard... the standard method like at beginning, vesh with machine guns IS to left corner, then zeph with handgun IS to right corner, leanne initial tri-attack with vesh starting it, use jump shoot to break enemy parts if you are low on bezels, after the tri-attack, you can at least take out 3-4 enemies, and still with full bezels.

in later chapter, when have more bezel, initiating tri-attack with 5-6 resonance points really fun...not only taking out enemies
but it will heal almost all your scratch damage.

lol.. I still in chap 4... Paiseh for being so super noob.. XD.. But somehow.... I cant help myself and feel uneasy if din finish the arena level... hahaha...

u guys r pro..
having hard time doing quest since my lvl below 20.
im on chapter 5 and had to lvlup in arena .
grinding makes me bored

I'm getting annoying by those critical condition. -.- any way to solve it?

Don't get into critical condition, it usually means game over...

Destroying parts, defeating enemies, breaking gauges refill bezel. Scratch damage heals over time too, a long distance IS can heal like 1/4 or 1/3. If one member is gang bang by multiple enemies, IS away if you can, concentrated firing must be avoided. Sending strong enemy to the air or smack down them will break their attack, can be life saving sometimes. Try to make use of these basics, then you can devise your own strategies

this game is difficult to understand, first battle i meet on world map im already dead.

When i met boss, critical condition. then i wait die only. lol

how to do smackdown..
at arena and already f***up..

u must fly up and keep attack lol

u shoot the enemy from ground, when it flys up u jump & shoot down thats how u do smack down

Added on April 11, 2010, 10:16 amjust wanna ask, does killing leader also give loot from other enemies? do we have to destroy parts first to get the loot b4 killing the enemy? or just killing it will also give us the parts?

the tutorial sometimes isnt very clear.

This post has been edited by IccyAsd: Apr 11 2010, 10:16 AM

Leader assault will make the rest drop parts, but items that drop on defeat won't appear.

Just make sure you are above hovering enemy when you wanna do a smackdown. Pretty easy compared to bonus shot which is random

ive done many times..
hurm...so fedup already
maybe i just continue the story mode...

The boss made me fed up lol

keep critical condition, damage low on him. But he dealt 1 time damage on me. I died.
