A must have for fans of the first, and a high recommendation for RPG fans.
Covenant in many ways improves upon the first game. Not only is the story a lot longer, one of the few 2-DVD games out there, but the graphics are better, and combat is more in depth with the added combo system. The Ju... Read Full Review

This is one of the most unique RPGs I have played in a long time. I rcommend everyone plays it.
An underrated RPG that deserved a higher score. Not only has is one of the most unique battle systems that I have ever come across, which requires you not to only think and plan out your moves, but for you to have good r... Read Full Review

If you want a great story driven RPG, with an unusual style, your wait is over.
After not ever hearing a thing about Shadow Hearts, I picked this up out of curiosity. I'm glad I did because this is a very fun, very unusual type of RPG. The story is great, if strange. You play as Yuri, a harmonixer w... Read Full Review

Gothic like, but funny and weird at the same time. quite an unusual RPG mix. but its an excellent recipe.
Shadow Hearts:Covenant caught my eye at the fact that its a gothic rpg, but that wasnt the case at all when i played it. I was surprised at the fact that even though from its dark mature tone, it has some pretty funny pa... Read Full Review

A game that everyone needs to try out.
Gameplay: When walking around in the game you don't get attack every 5 or 6 seconds like in other RPG's. SH:C is very good with their random battles where you will get attacked maybe everyone 2 or 3 minutes. There are so... Read Full Review

Fun battles, beautiful graphics with outlandish plot premises, but the voice acting was a little annoying.
Shadow Hearts: Covenant is a wonderfully executed game that looks great and doesn't take itself too seriously, and is simply fun to play if you're looking for time to kill and want a fairly interesting story replete with... Read Full Review

Totally worth every minute. The experience is something you'll enjoy!
I am a big fan of the Shadow Hearts series, and this game makes me understand just why I am. The story is so well-written. You'll find yourself playing longer than you planned just so you can find out what happens nex... Read Full Review
