    Fire Emblem: Awakening

    • The game is filled with beautiful graphics and great cut scenes (some are fully animated and voiced over, others show text and have partial sfx from characters, e.g. grunts, sighs, etc.), decent 3d effects, good gameplay and advanced features in the strategy based turn play battle mode, and lots of other game options
    • Great cutsceneces, great new characters, great gameplay
    • The same addictive gameplay from the previous titles returns with new mechanics, like unit merging for stat bonuses, and receiving boots to evasion and hit rate when allies are close by
    • The gameplay is just like any other strategy
    • The graphics are one of the best on the 3ds system and the gameplay is so addicting
    • Unmatched strategy gameplay and DLC for twice the punch in game material
    • It's just so very polished, that I have to give it the nod, even if the actual gameplay and story aren't quite as good as I'd have liked
    • The plot is awesome, the music is amazing, and the gameplay is fantastic
    • With it's ingenious tactical RPG gameplay, lovable characters and original legacy, this game is a must have for any 3DS owner
    • Great characters, gameplay, graphics are lovely and it's huge bang for your buck
    • I'm not a huge fan of the 3DS or most games that can be played on it; the 3D feels very much like a gimmick that doesn't enhance gameplay at all
    • If you like strategy and tactics, the gameplay is a lot of fun
    • : If one can get past the generic plot of Fire Emblem: Awakening, it's a great game with innovative gameplay, likable characters, and a great deal of bonus/optional features
    • The graphics are great, the dialogue *usually* isn't so time consuming that you lose interest and the gameplay is dynamic and engaging.
    • The cutscenes are beautiful, the characters are unique and have so much personality, and the gameplay is fun and addicting.
    • Gameplay is the meat of any game, and Fire Emblem has always had amazing gameplay
    • In quite a few ways, the gameplay is a massive improvement over past Fire Emblem games
    • Its stuff like the incredible writing, the great gameplay additions, the extra little bonus content that didnt need to be added but was added anyway (and that normal developers don't bother to put into their games) that shows that the developers of this game really have a love for the Fire Emblem series and its fans.
    • This is my first Fire emblem game and its GREAT!Graphics are superb, Gameplay is fun and entertaining and there is a lot of content available
    • The strategy is simple yet engaging, the story is interesting, the gameplay is fun, and the graphics are impressive
    • This is paired with an orgasmic soundtrack and voice acting that is pretty solid, if not a bit minimal, to make a package that has great gameplay, great visuals, and excellent music
    • I am very glad I picked this up instead of Monster Hunter.*Excellent graphics*Fantastic gameplay, with plenty of flexibility to tailor your experience
    • While the gameplay is good, the cheesy English voice acting combined with juvenile story that is no better than Pokemon makes this game unplayable.
    • The artwork is amazing, characters are interesting and the gameplay is great.
    • The game gives the option of classic, more difficult gameplay (as in if your characters die, they are gone forever and save points are more scarce) or standard where they still come back for each chapter and you can save more often
    • It has awesome gameplay that is very unique

    • It was just such a great game, it had amazing gameplay, an awesome, epic story, and incredibly deep character development, something that was usually pretty uncharacteristic for an SRPG.
    • The marriage aspect is unique, the characters are allot of fun, the gameplay is great
    • The gameplay mechanics alone is enough of a reason to play this game
    • I mean, I haven't finished yet, but the gameplay is incredible, and the story
    • The gameplay is also very smooth and easy as hell to learn it follows simple elements and does not bombard you with 50 menu's just to use one attack
    • The gameplay is top notch, easy to get into and you can save and start again whenever you wish
    • Great story, great characters, great gameplay.
    • Aside from the fantastic gameplay, it has so much to offer with prologues, character relationships, and DLCs
    • Like the gameplay
    • The gameplay is pretty fun, it is a turn-based strategic rpg and hence focuses on tactics, positioning etc
    • Excellent condition, great gameplay, nice story
    • The gameplay is real fun
    • Fire Emblem forget what it did best: rock solid gameplay, great story and characters, and classic intensity.
    • I absolutely love the gameplay
    • Gameplay is solid, with a rock-paper-scissors element to them
    • The gameplay is good, it's your typical turn-based SRPG, although the objectives are pretty much straightforward (kill everyone or kill the leader)
    • The gameplay is like the other fire emblem but there is no "rescue"
    • Unlike Advance Wars there's nothing that really shakes up the gameplay such as CO powers
    • Its got a decent story line, but the main attraction here is the gameplay, which is smooth.
    • The gameplay is smooth and comprehensive, and the characters you control are hilarious and have their various uses
    • The gameplay is entertaining, the graphics can be surprisingly strong, the characters are great (thanks to some especially good writing) and there's quite a lot to do
    • The gameplay is fun and addicting, and the storyline combined with several characters each with in depth back stories makes this one of the best games I've ever played.
    • The cut scenes look amazing in 3D, the music is above average, the gameplay is the best of any Fire Emblem
    • Nintendo really went all out to make this game break away from tradition on an aesthetic level while keeping the gameplay pure and addictive
    • The improved gameplay is a plus
    • It's also pretty fun to design your character (male or female, with three 'age' settings) and actually be able to participate in battles - and conversations!They've improved the gameplay to make some things simpler, but they've also got certain difficulty levels that the hardcore will... suffer over
    • It has everything you need - an amazing storyline, complex, interesting characters, a create-your-own-avatar that is a playable (and integral) character, and awesome gameplay mechanics
    • But the path there isn't one of spectacular gameplay and visual fireworks and will feel monotonous, unsatisfying and devoid of surprises at times
    • Not only are you able to give a name to your avatar and design it, the gameplay can be flexible to the main storyline
    • The gameplay and story are great, plus when you combine that with the character support feature it makes you want to beat the game over and over again
    • The game plays like Final Fantasy Tactics meets Shining Force, great story and gameplay
    • great graphics, gameplay and story so far
    • The gameplay is amazing and quite different than previous versions
    • As usual, however, the beautiful cutscenes are few and far between, but the excellent gameplay makes up for this
    • It's tougher than a lot of other Tactical RPGs out there, but also have fast gameplay which sets it apart from Ragnarok Tactics and even Gungnir.
    • For example you can have your avatar marry somebody like Panne the Taguel or Tharja a dark mage and experience different dialogue as well as in combat stat gains when fighting together
    • There's Frederick who's the Prince's knight and so fastidious and particular as to remove every rock from the path prior to the army's march, or to watch someone bathe in order to be sure they don't catch a chill.
    • A so great because honestly, everything about the game is of the highest caliber
    • Sometimes it is important to take progress slow and grind a
    • The game is as beautiful as it can be on that small a screen, and the 3d actually works and has a real difference.
    • Having played only one other previous FE game (Sacred Stones), I do not have a complete knowledge over the differences between this game and it's numerous other predecessors, however I can say that while I enjoy the thrill of the classic mode, the addition of the casual mode was in my case welcome as it truly allowed me to explore my characters in depth
