Nier Review

Emil (back), Nier and Kaine (front)... obliterated a pack of feral wolves.

"Weiss, you dumbass! Start making sense you rotten book, or you're gonna be sorry! Maybe I'll rip your pages out one-by-one, or maybe I'll put you in the goddamn furnace! How can someone with such a big, smart brain get hypnotized like a little bitch huh?! Oh, Shadowlord! I love you Shadowlord! Come over here and give Weiss a big sloppy kiss, Shadowlord! Now pull your head out of your goddamn ass and START FUCKING HELPING US!"

This is the intro to world of Nier. Those words were uttered by Kaine, the girl ally in the game. From my initial review:

Brutal Legend ROCKS!!!

So the closest Toys 'R' Us store is closing in my area (It's literally within walking distance... less than a mile). Each Thursday they're giving discounts to all items. I almost bought an electric guitar for $96. I ended up buying 3 PS3 games: Brutal Legend, Dante's Inferno, and Nier. The first game I'm playing is Brutal Legend.

I have a soft spot for original games and this game just screams of it. If you liked Beyond Good & Evil and Kya: Dark Lineage or pretty much any action-adventure game... then you'll love Brutal Legends.
