GameBrink (http://www.gamebrink.com/) takes a look at the rare XBOX 360 J RPG

Anyone thats read a review of an Idea Factory game, whether its a review of a Spectral Force title, a Spectral Souls title, or a Generation of Chaos title, would have a good idea going into Spectral Force 3 Innocent Rage for Xbox 360 that the game is not going to be all that good. Idea Factory games are basically the equivalent of doujin or unprofessional homemade games except they have just enough money and exposure to get them actually released on consoles. That doesnt necessarily mean the games are terrible (wella lot of their games are), it just means that the games dont tend to have the shine or gameplay depth to stand up to the big company RPGs and that in order to enjoy them one needs to go in not expecting much and Spectral Force 3 definitely holds true to that concept.

Talk about pre-release hype. Ouch.

I was excited for this title at one time, it being the only announced SRPG title (that I know of) for the 360. Then I had the misfortune to spend my hard earned money on the steaming pile that is Generation of Chaos for PsP, and learned what to expect from Idea Factory.

I am quite interested in Chaos Wars (also by Idea factory), but that is only because it has characters from Gungrave...and Gungrave rocks.

I almost bought this nearly a month back, but then I saw the Famitsu score: 22/40.

Ended up buying BFME2 instead and it has been a lot of fun.

I don't really trust Gamebrink's reviews. They totally bashed Chromehounds in their review and gave it a very low score.
