Folklore for the PS3 has surprised me a bit. I have only played through about a third of the game, but I am enjoying what this title has to offer. Folklore is a combination of RPG and action, but it blends so much more into the whole package that it shouldn’t be missed by fans of original games. A couple things that stand out about this game right from the start are the art direction, story, and overall presentation. The characters in Folklore are simply amazing. They look like something out of a Tim Burton or Jim Henson film. The environments are top notch and add a mystical yet dark feel to the game. The story in Folklore is also very captivating. Essentially you get yourself wound up in a murder mystery and as you play through the game you will unravel the details and back stories of the characters. This is all tied together nicely by a mix of cut scenes, in game dialog, and comic book style storytelling. The action game play is a little on the simple side and so are the RPG elements, but I haven’t been bored with it yet. Folklore is not a game for everybody, but if you like fantasy games and don’t mind some reading some text; you should check this one out. I'll have my full review for you soon.
