Arc Rise Fantasia is one of those games that, despite huge flaws, will still emotionally entice gamers with its world.

Aside the low profile voice acting, Arc Rise Fantasia will attract almost any RPG fan for the Wii!
After playing Arc Rise Fantasia for the first hour or so, you will notice right away: 1. The Voice Acting Is TERRIBLE! 2. The Battle System Is Pretty Great! 3. It's A Challenge And Strategic Oh and 4. The Music I... Read Full Review

Arc Rise Fantasia was an addicting RPG with a fresh battle system.
I've played a ton of RPG's on the Wii (read my past reviews), and I still own a bunch I haven't even started yet or barely scratched the surface with (Muramasa, Chocobo's Dungeon, Shiren the Wanderer, Baroque, Sakura War... Read Full Review
