Nudity in an RPG

When I first heard the voice acting in this game and realized they were the same people that were used in the game Fable, I thought, well it's been done before in other games until I heard the princess's voice which ended up sounding like an english woman gargling on asphalt (dare I steal a joke from one of my favortie comedian Patton Oswalt), but the other thing I noticed about the princess and the other woman character immediately was the fact that there clothes had that male ballerina effect. In other words you could make all of her body parts as if she were standing there naked. Other then this part that was added that also made me realize why this game got such a high rating from Maxim magazine, I thought the controls of this game were bad.

The fact that it turns into this "interactive" game during fights are annoying since your in first person perspective and have to keep turning around just to see what's hitting you from behind which is annoying and tedious. Plus in this game you can mobbed BIG TIME. If you just happened to be standing next to an intial bunch of enemies, they will ALL come after you. The only things that stopped me from sending this game back was the "visual" entertainment ;-), and the fact that this was one of the few games that I wanted to try for my xbox that I payed 200 dollars for. Other then that, it's not that great of a game, game play wise and story wise.

Storyline please

Given time the manufacturer should supply some information on Sudeki, and then Amazon will hopefully post it up. The Sudeki story line remains a mystery to me, what I want to know is who is the bimp wearing the world cup inspired bra on the box cover? and the large headed woman on the left carrying the over sized potato peeler weapon that looks very rocky horror show?

Star ratings are pointless given that fact Sudeki is not available at the present time. So please ignore the 1 star rating as a rating needs to be entered at Amazons request.

Sudeki may not be available for a while yet although from what I have read Sudeki:

- Will try to be an RPG like Final Fantasy and Zelda for example and feature the same controls as Zelda.

- Feature turn based fighting (not a 3rd person shooter, a gamer from North Ca.)

- Xbox only (not for PS2, PC, Game Cube or Handhelds)

- To feature lots of gore and killing (reason behind the M rating)

- 4 characters to choose from (not have 4 players playing at once)

- No online link up - nothing has been mentioned about this.

That is what has been written on various well-known game sites.

Some Sudeki facts (taken from various reliable sources):

-Will attempt to be an RPG like Zelda or Final Fantasy (feature very similar controls to those in Zelda)
-The player can choose between 4 characters (4 Players cannot all play at once)
-For X-Box only (not for PS2, PSP, PC, GameCube or any handhelds)
-No online compatibility

At best mediocre. And thats being very very generous.

Let me first explain there were good elements in this game. The graphics, espescially those of the environment were great. I also do like where the combat system went. Firstly the voice acting. It's horrible. Thats about it on that...its just horrible. The music was most likely bad. Or at least forgettable as I can't remember there being music. Mayve some techno sounds in the background I guess. Then the story. The story is a rushed peice of crap not fit for a shallow action game involving half-vampire unicorn babies. Or something equally stupid. Not to mention it jumps along from learning of the great evil you must face to facing it five minutes later in one of the many crummy single person boss fights. All of which have an easily discernable pattern. Boring and not very creative. Just like the rest of the game. Save you money and wait for fable.

Do not buy this game!

When I first learned of this game I was excited about Sudeki but that all changed when I played it. The game trys to be a "Jack of all trades" and ends up being a horrible lame attempt at combining different styles of play. It trys to blend RPG elements with that of first person shooter and a third person hack and slash. The game left me feeling empty because of the many faults...the most obvious being horrible voice acting, bad AI on the part of your team members, and a disappointing story. I did beat it and wanted to kill the game because it quite possiblily has the worst ending of any game I have ever played. Please do not buy this abomination to RPGs, it trys to please everyone and ends up pleasing no one.

This game sucks

I rented Sudeki expecting something like KOTOR meets the realtime fighting style of Baulders gate. But instead this game sucks when you play as Allish or Ellco it becomes a first person shooter which is so dum because you cant see if some one is attacking you from the side and its hard not to get hit.Then if you play as Buki or Tal the combos are a little limited and very slow. Also Allish's voice is SOOOOO ANNOYING OMG I WANT TO STRANGLE HER WHEN SHE TALKS!! This game sucks and if you want a good RPG to tide you over until Fable comes out try Samari Warriors. DO NOT GET THIS GAME you'll be sorry.

another delay

First Amazon states 13th the game will become available. Now Amazon states 20th the game will become available. Whats the betting the date will be pushed back again and again and again?

Amazon should only list products that are available now. The amount of times I pre order an item only to receive email after email telling me I can't have what I ordered.

(...)

Bad, bad, bad, BAD

I like RPG's they are my favorite genre of games so when I saw this at my local videostore I decided to try it. THANK GOD I rented it and didnt buy it or I would be really mad that I blew $50 (at the time) to buy this peice of crap. The voice overs are terrible and the storyline is odd and whats with the whole switching to first person mode on the sorceress and the scientist characters thats soooo dumb. Im not going to go on complaining any more but just know that if you are looking for a good RPG you may want to try these:

1. Fabe (XB)
2. Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicals (GC)
3. Any PS2 final fantasy game
4. Xmen Legends (XB, PS2, GC?)
5. Harvest moon (GC, Sims + Old Mcdonald)

Try those instead there much better than this

Big let down!

Considering how long this game has been in the works, I was expecting a game of the same caliber as KOTOR. No such luck. Sudeki is an ok game at best. The voice acting is not that great, in fact, the voices are either incredibly annoying, or don't fit the appearance of the character at all. This is especially true for the females. This is a real loss, since a major aspect of an RPG is interaction between characters. The actual gameplay graphics seem awfully grainy-they would have been great had players not experienced the superior graphics that the x-box can produce in games like Splinter Cell, Halo, or Prince of Persia. The cut scenes have good graphics, but the actual gameplay graphics don't match up. The controls are mediocre--it is not so much the button configuration as that the respose time tends to be slow, especially when you want your character to grab and pull something. Another frusterating aspect is that the "Spirit Points" used for spells do not reginerate gradually like force powers do in KOTOR. This results in the unfortunate situation of running out of spirit points, and being screwed for the rest of the battle unless you have adequete potions. All in all, if there were not several RPG's about to come out that look like they will blow you away (fable, jade empire, etc.) I might recomend Sudeki to RPG fans who need something new. However, for now I would suggest waiting it out until better titles come out.
In closing, I would just like to request that people only write actual reviews. If you must write a review before a game is even released, please take the time to at least play a demo--the disc that comes with the XBOX magazine has very good demos of big games. If you just want to ask a question or speculate about future releases, please be considerate of other Amazon customers and take your comments to a chatroom. I am pretty certain that gamespot.com has a chatroom for each and every game. Thank you, and I hope my review was helpful.
