Haha... well, that's my point really. It could have been a lot worse. I just hate seeing people complain so much when they could have pulled a Capcom and thankfully didn't. Just imagine if they had gotten their hands on this game.

I'm sure there are ways they could have done plenty of the things better but like I said; to accomodate a 2D port the game would have had to have been remade from scratch. Ever played the Ys Eternal games for the PS2? Yeah... that is what happens when you directly port a 2D PC game to the PS2. Blech.

Eh, considering you can change the voice acting (or just disable it) and remove the CG scenes there really isn't much to complain about. The portrait issue was unavoidable... this ALWAYS happens with PC >Console ports so you may as well just deal with that because it wasn't something lazy Konami did; it is just something that had to be done.

I won't even touch the whole "models vs chibi sprites" thing with a ten foot pole... all I'm going to say is I didn't feel as though it mattered. Odds are Konami had to do it anyway, since the PS2 is a very lousy system for 2D games and would have had to have rebuilt the game from the ground up to actually use them without any issues.

I think some people just whine far, far too much... but eh.
