Game Overview

Now, a small band of freedom fighters struggle to end the long, dark night of Daein's oppression.

Expert Reviews

60/100

score

With a terrible plot and an unforgiving difficulty level, Radiant Dawn is best left alone by anyone but the most hardcore of strategists.

65/100

score

Those who have stuck with the franchise for a long time will likely consider this score to be too low; and more power to you. But my judgment is coming from someone fresh to the series, and I found only little enjoyment out of playing it.

80/100

score

If you're looking for an entertaining, challenging, traditional strategy game, look no further, as Fire Emblem is as good as it gets. Just don't expect anything more than Nintendo Gamecube presentation, visuals, and control for $50.

"Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn" For Nintendo Wii. Thank god it's over.

While I still have faith in the series, this will go down as one of the worst gaming experiences... I've ever had.
