Nier (360)

Sale Price $14.96 SALE

(25% off) at Amazon Deal Factor 3.8 (details) Deal Factor for "Nier (360)"
The Deal Factor reflects the value of a deal: it's a score ranging from 0 to 10 that is based on the game's average review score, the percentage of the price drop ("savings"), and the game's age. Deals with the largest savings on the best-reviewed and most recent games have the highest Deal Factors. Since we're snobs, we give more weight to the review score than the savings or age (a bad game doesn't get better just because it's cheap or new, and our goal is to help you find the most attractive deals, not just the cheapest or newest games).

For "Nier" the Deal Factor details look like this:

Weighted Review Score 2.7

Game Informer 8.0 Final Fantasy XIII-2 (PS3)

Final Fantasy XIII-2 Review: Fixing The Little Problems While The Big Ones Get Worse

GameSpot 7.5 Final Fantasy XIII-2 (PS3)
Final Fantasy XIII-2 (360)

Final Fantasy XIII-2 doesn't capture Lightning in a bottle, but it's still a fun and heartfelt role-playing adventure.

1UP 6.9 Final Fantasy XIII-2 (360)
Final Fantasy XIII-2 (PS3)

This gawky teenager of an RPG makes an earnest effort, but it's no longer one of the cool kids.

Friday, January 27, 2012

IGN 8.0 Final Fantasy XIII-2 (PS3)

Lightning vanished. Travel through time to find her.

AppSpy 8.0 Chrono Trigger (iPhone)

This is still the Chrono Trigger fans have come to know and love even despite Square Enix' stubborn refusal to shape its games to suit the iOS platform; this can dampen the experience, but its core still shines through.

Monday, December 12, 2011

Pocket Gamer 8.0 Chrono Trigger (iPhone)

Despite Square Enix’s slovenly porting skills, none of Chrono Trigger’s brilliance has been obscured in this rather lazy iOS port. Hours of riveting RPG entertainment await those of you willing to look past the fuzzy graphics and occasionally awkward controls

Slide To Play 7.5 Chrono Trigger (iPhone)

As a game, Chrono Trigger is perfect. As a port, we've seen better.

GameSpot 6.0 Fortune Street (Wii)

Fortune Street is a decent strategy board game, but the slow pace siphons away much of the fun.

Friday, December 02, 2011

Game Informer 8.5 Fortune Street (Wii)

Making Bank

1UP 7.7 Fortune Street (Wii)

Nintendo's new party game has nothing in common with Mario Party, save one: It sucks solo.

IGN 7.0 Fortune Street (Wii)

Is Square Enix's digital board game worth investing in?

Friday, July 01, 2011

IGN 9.5 Final Fantasy III (Wii)

The Virtual Console offers another incredible reminder of Nintendo's role-playing past.

Gamezebo 8.0 Chaos Rings Ω (iPad)

Pros: Lovely graphics. Fun gameplay. Epic plot. Fans of the first game will love it. Cons: Story is going to confuse new players. So familiar to the first game that it feels a bit unoriginal. Some backgrounds look kinda fuzzy on the iPad's display.
