Shadow hearts Covenant

I heard about this new RPG that came out called SH:C on RPGfan.com and it looks kind of interesting. I read some reviews on it at other RPG websites, but I would like a more objective review on it from people here before buying it. So as anyone played this game and if so was it worth it?

I have yet to actually buy the game, though I have been meaning to. The original Shadow Hearts was pretty interesting. It was a little lacking in the graphics department, particularly the spell sequences, but the story was intriguing. According to the reviews of the sequel, most technical areas of the game have been vastly improved. I’m a bit hesitant about the story of the sequel seeing as I thought Shadow Hearts had a bit of finality to it, but nontheless I expect SH:Covenant to be worth the buy. I suggest playing Shadow Hearts before you play SH:Covenant though, seeing as the games take place one year apart from each other.

Hmm… I thought more people would respoond to this. Oh well I plan I renting this game next week, so hopefully I’ll enjoy it.
