Eternal Sonata was essentially an Xbox 360 exclusive that was ported to the PS3 a year and a half later. The PS3 version features two additional characters, additional cutscenes that help explain the story better, and a bonus end game dungeon. from Amazon.com You definitely get your money's worth with the 30-50 hours of game play. I usually finish all my PS3 games in less than 15 hours and most of them has very little replay value. This is not the case for Eternal Sonata and I will definitely play it over again on Encore mode. The story was great (about Chopin). from Amazon.com Eternal Sonata is a very colorful good looking game. it has a unique story line and I really like the battle system. from Amazon.com Eternal Sonata tells the tale of Chopin's dreams as he lies on his deathbed. Overall, the game is overly refreshing in both its graphical style and musical score. from Amazon.com I must say that I was excited for Eternal Sonata the moment I saw that it was announced at the Tokyo Game Show for the Xbox 360. A fantastical game about a real life composer seemed like it would make for an incredibly interesting game. from Amazon.com Eternal Sonata is a wonderfully beautiful and amazing work of art. The graphics, while not the realistic looking type that we go for today, are gorgeous. from Amazon.com When I first heard about Eternal Sonata, I could not then have guessed how much I would come to adore this game. From a wonderfully entertaining storyline to compelling characters, Eternal Sonata is a treat for all those who appreciate video games beyond just their battle systems. from Amazon.com The next thing that one would notice is the music. This game has a superb soundtrack and there are no tracks that I do not like. Plus, the Chopin pieces thrown in make for an interesting juxtaposition between Chopin and Fantasy RPG-Classical hybrid of the rest of the music. The story and characters can be fantastically compelling to some, and to others, quite flat. from Amazon.com In terms of controls and interface however, I find ES' to be one of the easiest to navigate, most beautiful to look at, as well as the most interesting to toy around with. I like how, in battle, most moves can be executed at the touch of a single button. That however makes it a bit easy for players, but I don't mind. Like I said, less grinding, more on the story please. from Amazon.com Eternal Sonata arrives onto the Playstation 3 with updated content including new dungeons, music, cut scenes, and two new playable characters. The story begins with Composer Fredrick Chopin lying in his death bed; meanwhile a new journey unfolds within his dream. from Amazon.com
