Just a little reccomendation:
Picked this up new for $20 last week & been playing it every spare chance I get - it's even pushed aside the new version of "Championship Manager" on the PC for me, that's how much I'm enjoying it.
It's a Japanese take on Diablo, without the multiplayer aspect. It's hack & slash, isometric perspective & a very nice weapon upgrade system - you 'engrave' upgrades into the weapon, with different upgrades taking up different space. The more you engrave, the more it costs...
Gameplay is repetitive but in a good way - it's hack & slash, with a nice variety of enemies & skills needed.
Story is run of the mill, based on the anime of the same name, but is enjoyable - it keeps the game progressing, opening up new areas at just the right time. The level of difficulty so far is spot on too.
Lots of secrets & 30 side quests to go on too.
This has been overlooked & reputedly got a small print run in the US... I've seen it for $20 new in GameStop. Worth picking up if you like Diablo style games...
