Jeanne D'Arc

Strengths: SRPG, graphics

Weakness: Historical fantasy.

Jeanne D'Arc is an excellent fantasy strategic, turned based RPG game that infuses the historical European figure in a fantasy world. The gameplay uses strategy elements and grid-based maps for battles and it rocks. The battle system is similar to other strategy RPG's but the options add a whole new level of dynamics to the gameplay. The fantasy story is great and refreshing while the graphics is...

Jeanne D'Arc (PSP)

Strengths: Gameplay, graphics

Weakness: None

Jeanne D'Arc is a strategy RPG that retells an alternate story of Jeanne D'Arc in a fantasy setting. It's not historically accurate but does provide hours of fun strategy gaming experience on a grid-based battleground. It is similar to Final Fantasy Tactics in terms of gameplay but without a job system. The game is developed by Level 5 and has great visuals and music. It is one of the best games...

Jeanne D'Arc

Strengths: One of the best PSP titles there is

Weakness: None

Jeanne D'Arc is a fictional retelling of Jeanne D'Arc's battles against the invading English army with a Japanese anime-inspired style and complete with fantasy creatures thrown in the mix.

Via stunning graphics and voiced cut scenes you will experience the...

Arc of Jeanne

Strengths: Great story, gameplay, and graphics.

Weakness: Not entirely historically accurate, to say the least.

Jeanne D'Arc is a fantastic strategy RPG that has rock-solid gameplay and great visuals. The story and characters, being based somewhat in Europe, are a nice departure from typical Japanese RPGs. While Jeanne D'Arc doesn't have the intricate job system of Final Fantasy Tactics, it is one of the best in its genre.

It dosen't get much better than this

Strengths: Fantastic storyline. Great integration of FMV. Unique 'transformation' battle system.

Weakness: Some plot-forced character changes.

This is hands down the best tactical RPG out for the PSP that I've tried. It's almost hard to know where to begin in singing its praises but a lot of the credit goes to a fantastic storyline. Jeanne D'Arc is set during the Hundred Years War between France and England, reimagined for a world which contains magic and monsters. The characters are deep and engaging and the use of FMV spices up the...

Jeanne d'arc

Strengths: FF style gameplay, graphics

Weakness: none

One of the better titles that have come out for the PSP. I’m enjoying this title more than the FF titles (they created Jeanne) I’ve played before on other systems…maybe it’s because it seems there its easier or has better flow than the FFs I’ve played. It doesn’t have the depth and options of the FF series, but that’s fine with me. So if you’re looking for a title that has the FF...

Jeanne D'arc

Strengths: Fire Emblem like strategy game, great graphics, great characters, challenging at times

Weakness: n/a

Jeanne D'arc is a must own for any PSP owners. It is a strategy game much like Fire Emblem. There are a few main differences but the biggest one is that if a character falls in battle, they are not gone forever (which is good/bad). However, Jeanne D'arc has enough challenges in other ways. The story is great, the anime cutscenes are nice, and overall it is a solid game.

Very Good

Strengths: fun game, interesting story, great graphics, easy to pick up

Weakness: some frustrating battles, very limited weapon system, too many characters, unable to walk around such as in Final Fantasy games (no random battle)

Jeanne D'ark is one of the best RPG games to date. It has great graphics and a story that makes it a winner. However, the limited weapon system makes the game not as dynamic. Also, one gets to control so many units but most battles are limited to only half of all the units you get to control. Overall, it is a very enjoyable game.

One of the best strategy rpg for psp

Strengths: Great cell-shaded graphics and videos

Weakness: Kind of common battle system

This game is great for those Rpg tactics fans. The game centers in the story of Joan of Arc, but of course its a game based. This game produced by one best rpg makers Level-5 which make this game enjoyable. The battle system is common as other rpg-tactics game, but the options and specials movements are gorgeous. This game is a must have for those tactician RPG its a very good story telling game....

Strategy On The Go...

Strengths: +Beautiful cel-shaded graphics +Tons of cinemas +Great music +Fun gameplay

Weakness: -Silly story -Somewhat easy for strategy veterans

Jeanne D' Arc is RPG powerhouse Level 5's first PSP game, and it turned out very well. Based on the mythical/historical figure of Joan of Arc, the Japanese studio has spun a re-imagined tale of her life. Who knew that demons and monsters fought for England? Anyways, ignore the silly story and experience the fun and fast gameplay. Graphics are fun. Sound is nice. Overall this is a great value for...

Jeanne d'Arc

There was a time when a vile demon king had risen up to terrorize the country. Five heroes countered the hell-spawned threat, using armlets imbued with the power of God. But as time passed, things changed. One of the heroes is now the “uncle” and advisor to the boy-king of England. It is his desire that the young king lives forever and rule supreme. To that end, the English have begun a...
