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 parts in it, and a very lengthy story that can get one hooked. The sidequests are abundant and pretty much worth it. Mutliple bonus boss slayings will get your time's worth, and the story itself is intriguing that you will want to finish it to see its end. The CGI is pretty much up to date and amazing, but the lypsynch does need some work. And the fact that some twiss and turns will keep you up on your feet about the story itself which has some shocking parts somewhat during the middle and ending part. so expect that. Music is ok, but not some that are memorable at all. Item hunting is here too, but the fact of constantly keeping pace with balancing everyones levels may keep some turned off, since you are given control of several characters, but you wont be using all of them and only use those you like. Summoning is here too, with some you need to earn through sides, which is a big portion of the game. Covenant will keep you busy for quite some time.
