Disgaea_3-_Absence_of_Justice Introduction - Released back in August of last year, Disgaea 3 is obviously the third installment of the relatively unknown Strategy RPG series made by Nippon Ichi. It is another SRPG that is very much like Final Fantasy Tactics or Tactics Ogre. It followed a luke warm reception in America although it was a bit more popular back in Japan. If you enjoy Japanese style games, humor, or want a really addictive PS3 game that you can play for hours and hours that isn't Little Big Planet than check out this review and hopefully the game. If you are wondering why I didn't review this game earlier its because I just got a PS3.

Story - You are a adolescent demon who is going to become a "Hero" so you can defeat your father for destroying your video game system and losing countless hours of saved data. Your father is the overlord of the school you attend. The humor is dark and humorous where a "honor student" is the type of student that comes in late, is tardy and gives the teacher attitude. Hey, your a Demon.

Gameplay - Very precise controls allow for very efficient movement and placement. There are less camera issues that the previous games. You get 10 characters that you can place on a battlefield at once. There are several different classes, including storyline characters that can help round out your party as well. You learn skills by buying them which is much different than the previous games where you just learned them through experience. Each level has about 5 stages for you to defeat, including maps with mini bosses or different objectives other than killing everything. Maps can be altered by panels that can give special properties such as defense up 50% to colored panels around the map. Depending on how well you fight the round you get bonus items. There are so many ways you can fight a battle it is ridiculous, but there are few things more enjoyable than stacking every character you have into a totem pole of destruction, or chaining the destruction of all the special panels killing the enemies before they even get to you. Each map does require more planning than your average SRPG, considering each map can be very different. It may have the invicibility panel throughout the whole map. How do you kill an enemy when every panel on the map makes them invincible?

Graphics - Have you ever said "I just want a good game I don't care about the graphics"? This game is that. The graphics could run a PS2 engine easy. It normally wouldn't bother me but on a $400 system, It could have easily looked better

Game Length - Anywhere between 30 hours to do storyline and nothing else, to several months to do everything. You only need to be level 100 to beat the game, but why stop there when you can be level 9999. The side quest maps require you to be in the thousands. With easy leveling options that allow you to increase or decrease monster strength it easier than it sounds.

Audio - Sound acting is good but comical. You will notice that the voices all sound much younger than you might find, but the storyline usually follows older teenagers so its appropriate.

Overall - Its a 8 out of 10. Some decent missed opportunities but if you are looking for a good long game for the PS3 that isn't an fps than you definately need to check this game out. You can find it currently for 39.99 at Bestbuy or Gamestop.
