Review - Final Fantasy Theatrhythm
Everyone has a favorite entry in the Final Fantasy franchise. Even when gamers argue over which is better than others or question the quality of some its more recent entires (myself included), one thing that is universally accepted is that Final Fantasy always has good music. Final Fantasy Theatrhythm is a celebration of that music, using faux-RPG elements and rhythm gameplay to bring even the most bitter of devotees gleaming with nostalgia.
If you've ever played Elite Beat Agents (or Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan) on the DS, Final Fantasy Theatrhythm will be very similar. Circles slide across the top screen, and you tap, slide and flow with the rhythm of the music to gain points and high ratings. There are three different kinds of "stages", but they all play the same. The Field Music stage uses easy-going overworld songs to start things of simple. The Event Music stage has memorable cutscenes or moments from the series, and the Battle Music stages all have the quicker, more upbeat battle songs. Even though each is presented differently, they all use the same gameplay of tap, slide, and hold touches on the bottom screen.
Unlike most rhythm games, Theatrhythm is rather generous when it comes to hitting the mark. The ratings ranges from "bad" to "great", with "critical" being the highest possible. Missing one causes your hit point bar to drop. Getting criticals does not require absolute precise timing, as you can be a little early or late and still get the critical. It's bizarre for a rhythm game, but great for players who just want to enjoy the music and not have to worry about performance all the time. This isn't to say that the game is easy by any means. The basic courses are quite simple, but once you unlock the challenge mode and try the same songs on Expert and eventually Ultimate, high grades do not come as easily.
Tying all of the music gameplay and tapping together are RPG elements. You create a party of four characters from the main line of Final Fantasy games (the same cast as the Dissidia fighting games). Each has different stats, hit points, and special abilities. These can slightly affect gameplay. For example, Zidane from Final Fantasy IX can move further ahead during the field stages and has a higher chance of finding items, and the Warrior of Light deals a lot of physical damage during the battle scenes. Completing the songs earns each character experience points, letting them level up and improve stats and learn new abilities. The abilities are all based on performance, too. Casting a Thunder spell requires a number of "good" ratings in a row to cast, and the Steal ability has a 10% chance of happening every time you defeat an enemy.
The Battle Event music stages are the most entertaining, because they are vaguely classic Final Fantasy battles. Every successful note hit has that character in line attacking with his or her melee weapon and dealing damage their enemy. The amount is a complete mystery, as it just says "damage!" next to the enemy letting you know that you hit. It's a bit superficial, but at the same time, defeating enemies gets you new items to equip your party with, or if you're really lucky, crystal shards to unlock additional characters.
Of course, none of this would be any fun to play if it wasn't for the beautiful music. One of the coolest parts of Theatrhythm is going down the line of Final Fantasy songs and witnessing first hand how gaming music has improved and evolved. It's absolutely incredible that so many songs have stood the test time and are truly classics. It's difficult to play Terra's Theme or Within the Giant and not have memories forcing your lips into a smile. If the music wasn't enough, the charming chibi characters and impressively compressed clips of classic gameplay running the background are more than enough to melt your heart.
The game can be "beat" in about four hours; beat in the sense that you see the end credits. That would only scratch the service of unlockables in Theatrhythm. Challenge mode let's you attempt the basic courses in the Expert and Ultimate difficulties, while the Chaos Shrine provides a different challenge altogether. The Chaos Shrine has 99 two-song challenges to unlock, each one with varying rewards and up to three bosses to battle. You do not know the songs going in, so you cannot pick the ones you know you are good at it. At the same time though, this can cause the repetition of some songs numerous times in a row. Plus, the Chaos Shrine can be played cooperatively with up to three other players in the same room. And if the Chaos Shrine isn't enough, you unlock several dozen collectible cards of characters, a movie theater mode, and a jukebox to listen to the music.
Any person that has even a moderate amount of appreciation for Final Fantasy will find things to like Theatrhythm. While the gameplay itself is simple, it's rather addicting, and the number of hidden songs you'll discover give Theatrhythm the ultimate "just one more song" mentality. It's difficult to put down, even if the repetition can get to the best of you some times. There is already new song DLC available for purchase, with more promised in the future, to help stave off that repetition though.
It's an absolutely fantastic way to kill a few minutes of down time, but prolonged play sessions can cause boredom. Still, everything about Final Fantasy Theatrhythm oozes charm and nostalgia, and is a worthwhile purchase in the right hands.

This game is really fun, and it's great to be able to listen to past songs, even if there's only a few. I'm late to post, but I still wanted to say.

My biggest complaint is that it's taking me way too long to find the Indigo Shards to unlock Locke. I don't need more yellow shards, dammit!
CupOfYasakani
I just wanna try to play Overworld!! OVERWORLD.... did anyone get that song yet?
NY_Knux
Got this game yesterday, its actually STUPIDLY fun for some reason, I'm not even sure why. The characters are adorable, the music is great, obviously.
How strange, I missed this game at PAX East, I didn't even know they were showing this game until after I got back home.
Lipnox88
Terrible reviews like this are why I barely come to screwattack anymore. You should just remove review scores if there going to be this inconsistent.
Arlek Orjoman
Please elaborate.
Lipnox88
Kid icarus deserves higher score. but many things just dont make sense.
CupOfYasakani
Yeah, if that person said they didn't follow. I didn't get you either JUST from the second time. plus 7.5 is not bad and it's still worth buying. It's not like its a 5.5>. Plus it just seems like you would oppose everyone's opinions just from looking at your post.
Lipnox88
it was a quick response I just think the review scores shouldn't exist.
NY_Knux
Two different genres. Thats like comparing the review scores of New Super Mario Bros to Killing Floor. It makes no sense.
Grustein
I've spent almost 3 hours just playing the demo, so I'm buying this as soon as the stores opens on monday.
supermatt64
I'll get a used copy and see if I like it.
JxL
Just wondering if anyone thinks this will price drop pretty quick? I want it but don't wanna pay full price...
CupOfYasakani
Doubt it, this game is good decent price and worth playing with friends and street passing.
Chance XD
um no. It is pretty good and it is selling at a decent pace. Its going to stay at $40 new for a while to come most likely.
The Street Fighter
fun game and it feels like a tribute to all the final fantasy games
Sir_Luna
Absolutely love this game!
Kaepora22
Love this game so much. It helps me look back at the games and appreciate the random bits of magic they brought to my life (plus any game with an Onion Knight has my seal of approval).
DXKramer
I have never to this day played a game like Elite Beat Agents...until I picked this game up.
I am enjoying this game. Already beaten the FF1 and FF4 music. Going to work down the line now. Cannot wait to see what videos they use for the other games.
Louzon
This is what an anniversary game should be, in my opinion. Not a re-hash of an older game or a compilation (although those aren't TOO bad), but a new idea that makes you think back to the entire series, and brings back memories and smiles. This game is great for that...first time through the FFIV section of this (which was the first RPG I ever beat, and is still tied with FFIX for my favorite in the series), all the little scenes behind the event section just had me smiling, and feeling bad for little Palom and Porom, and the entire emotion of the game came rushing back, all in that few couple minutes.
ShinyTotodude
Cool! Final Fantasy IX was the very first one of the series that I played and after that one I enjoyed nearly every of the series and that one surely always is special to me in some way. Need to play the PSP version again sometime. X3 Also, Theatrhythm Final Fantasy is a supercool game! I need to get an eShop card soon to download some extra songs. (-^.=.^-) ♪
kaidoku
Why can't square make actually good games like this one FF13 (AND 13-2) Sucks mainly because its not a "Real RPG" Heck its not even a JRPG (Dragon Quest 3 and FF4 is a JRPG, FF13 is not) I mean the best game that i've recently scene that came out from Square is KH3D, and Dragon Quest 9
stevemacQ
If Final Fantasy XIII isn't an RPG, then neither is Mass Effect because that's a squad-based shooter and Call of Duty's online mulitplayer has leveling up systems like RPGs.
What does it mean for a game to be an RPG? What make everyone think RPG can be grounded down by specific terms, longevity, choice-making, leveling up. XIII has at least two of those. If XIII goes down, then I think it's fair to drag every other RPG down with it. I will tear apart the Final Fantasy fanbase and anger fans if Square-Enix does remake Final Fantasy VII because I they don't deserve one.
stevemacQ
I'm glad Square-Enix is getting a few things right in this time and glad FF fans still maintain a little bit of faith. A little is better none at all.
Insane Shane
I love Final Fantasy but I hate it when they have to make the characters all cute looking and stuff. But I'll still be getting it since I'm a fan. Good job on the review.
CupOfYasakani
KH is similar like that at the time when Coded came out.
abINC88
They had to otherwise the character models would clash way too much, I did wish they made the faces look more like people rather than cats but oh well.
SincereSuperman
Character models would clash? What about Dissidia?
abINC88
Oh, forgot about that game >< Well that's what the reviewers said :P
hypercombo64
i love this game! looks like im gonna have to use new images to put in my blog cuz i have practically the same ones haha. this is a good game for anyone who's been a fan of the game for a while. the music is beautiful
Foxdark22
I like the concept because rhythm games, but I've never liked FF games that much...
And no mention of DLC...
Jared
Oop. You're right. I'll amend that in right away.
