Fire Emblem:Radiant Dawn (Wii)

Ultimately, Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn is a huge disappointment. It seems that nothing was learned from the making of Path of Radiance, and as a direct follow-up, Radiant Dawn can't even live up to its predecessor's epic story. The walls of text and unforgiving difficulty level will do nothing but alienate and discourage newcomers and even some veterans, which makes it a game purely for the hardcore crew who are dedicated to the series or the genre--anyone else need not apply.

I was considering buying this game until I read this review.

Addendum: On the other hand, Nintendo Power magazine gave it a 9.5/10 which is a very high grade, one of the highest that they have given to any recent game.
