  Between its rough, unfinished feel and instantly forgettable story, there's little motivation to finish the game let alone replay it, and when the difficulty finally settles down, it drops too much, and the aggravating journey is already approaching its end. Last Rebellion is as hollow and soulless as its barren landscapes and empty gameplay.

  As it is, though, this game is lacking in so many ways that it is very hard to recommend to anyone, even as a weekend rental. I really hope for better things next time from Hit Maker and NIS, as the battle system has a lot of potential in the right setting and it’s the battle system alone that keeps this from a bottom dwelling 1 of 5.

  Last Rebellion simply doesn't need to exist. I would gladly take its battle system in another, full-blown RPG, but tucked into a painfully bland story and world, it ends up being nothing more than a waste.

  5.0

  Last Rebellion is underproduced, underdeveloped, unrefined, unpolished, and ultimately forgettable. And yet, it possesses the foundations of something, that originally intended to strike for greatness. It will be no David to its Goliath-sized peers, but sometimes being enjoyably adequate is all that's needed. Try playing it between more worthy games.

  Last Rebellion isn't a bad game. In spite of a presentation that feels phoned in, the gameplay is, in many ways, fresh and entertaining. As a boxed retail product, however, it simply doesn't cut the mustard. Fans of the publisher will likely have fun with the new ideas implemented into the game's battle system, but the package feels like an overpriced casual game.

  So, if you absolutely must play every RPG ever made then rest assured Last Rebellion won't kill you. But if you're only up for one epic adventure this year, then I hear Final Fantasy XIII and Resonance of Fate are both excellent choices, because no matter which way I look at it I'd have trouble recommending Last Rebellion to anyone.
