CyberConnect2's first game, and a beloved hidden gem for the PS1. Some nice gameplay and great visuals, combined with how it's more or less a playable 90's anime in terms of tone. Worth bringing back for newer audiences. Also, Cyan. Gotta love Cyan.
Started with its spiritual successor Solatorobo on the Nintendo DS so I went back to this first entry and it's a shame that such a charming title is limited to the PS1. It's severely hard to acquire legitimately and I wish this passion project from CyberConnect2 would be preserved on PC
This may be a short game, but it’s a fun ride. The story is simple, but the characters are charming, and the voice acting is really good given the time it came out. I hope this can be seen and played by more people one day.
This game I must say that it would be amazing if people knew about it through a PC Port, I'm just saying. (I'm just commenting for the sake of it, and to say that thanks to this game I discovered a great franchise like LittleTailBronx)
Historical landmark of a game by newfound subsidiary of Bandai Namco ('Cyberconnect') pitched in 1996 to be marketed amongst the goldmine of 3D-Platforming games, finding its place alongside the likes of other PlayStation and Nintendo hits of the era. Unfortunately I suspect most know perfectly well in modern context how difficult and unpredictable of a market it was to even dream of entering and expect any amount of success from - console libraries at this point becoming so cluttered with what in denotable execution were a huge collection of the same 3D games being sold over and over again despite their fairly unique appearances. Granted, Tail Concerto does have its obviously potent flaws itching to be discovered, be it vaguely sluggish combat, slippery platforming and a narrative that whilst heart-breaking at moments and appearing fairly unique does lend itself a few eyebrow raises (especially upon the unfortunately painful decision of naming its main villain 'The Iron Giant'). Despite these nitpicks the astonishing first efforts of the later rebranded 'CyberConnect2' become increasingly clear - being as bold as to commission 20 minutes worth of remarkable studio-quality animation to be broadcast out of a console that at this point was already almost half a decade old, which can't be anything short of a miracle. This game perfectly exemplifies the extents to which CyberConnect2 will traverse just to fledge out and promote their titles that they know damn well only a small amount of individuals across the globe will be anticipating. But it doesn't matter about the size of a fanbase - they'll keep themselves afloat with whatever outsourced pre-existing IP games it takes, as long as it means the team can later focus their efforts on whatever Little Tail Bronx game comes next. Porting this game to pc would not only be preserving a game released in such an iconic yet inconsistent period in gaming history, but slightly fulfil the pricy demands for its availability.
Seriously, this franchise is so cool, it's a crime that this game (and Solatorobo) never received a re-release.
My friend and I were engrossed in this game for a month.
The gameplay is simple but fun. Yes, it is a bit hard to control, but it is far from being unplayable.
The soundtrack is great, especially the Japanese opening song, which is beautifully EPIC.
The game's graphics are so beautiful that my friend kept questioning whether it was really a PS1 game (although for me that reaction was a bit exaggerated). The visuals have aged well compared to other games on the console, especially the enemies, which are very expressive.
This is perhaps one of the first 3D platform games with a well-crafted story. Sometimes it even feels like an RPG. Everything told through well-directed cutscenes for the time, with some animated cutscenes as if it were an anime. Even the American dubbing is acceptable for a PS1 game (Megaman X4 cough cough).
Seriously, the world building and characters alone make this game deserve at least a remaster and an anime to go with it.
Seriously, it's really sad to see games as cool as those in this series being so niche even with the developer giving their all. Seriously, support this game.
CyberConnect2 deserves better for what they do for these games.

DmC: Devil May CryDmC: Devil May Cry is the fifth game in the hack-and-slash third-person action series and the first not largely developed by Capcom. This title is a reimagining of the series, with the same protagonist Dante, but set in an alternate universe. The Dante in this game is very different from before, doing away with the trademark white hair and altering the main character as well as the game's tone with a much more Western influence. The gameplay is still largely identical as Dante engages many opponents with a fast fighting style, stringing together combos and hits in quick succession.Action Fantasy
Devil May Cry 4: Collector's EditionThe player plays as Nero throughout most of the game. He is equipped with the Red Queen sword, Blue Rose revolver, and the powers of his Devil Bringer. The Red Queen features an Exceed Gauge that can be charged up, allowing for subsequent attacks that are more powerful than regular slashes, until the gauge empties. Nero also has the powers of his Devil Bringer, and can use it to pull himself towards enemies or vice versa. The Devil Bringer may also be used for context-sensitive throw attacks, leading to high damage and various effects depending on the enemy. Nero's Devil Bringer also gains new abilities during the course of the game, such as being able to detect secret missions or caches of Red Orbs. Nero eventually gains the ability to use Devil Trigger after getting the katana known as Yamato, which increases his Devil Bringer's power, thus changing his Devil Bringer attacks into more powerful versions with different animationsAction
