www.hardcoregaming101.net/timeeternity/timeeternity.htmThis ambitious PlayStation JRPG from Imageepoch seeks to create the dream of a truly interactive anime, but falls apart on almost every conceivable level. The Japanese wiki Game Catalog ranked this very highly as one of the Kusoges of the Year from when it came out. Its section even mentions that it was localized and released in North America and got an equally poor reception over here. I've been buying up some of the PS3 games that I missed before they start getting expensive, so I grabbed this for less than $15. It seems like the sort of game that was super ambitious but was just completely hamstrung by development realities. Some of it is obviously budget; on this same site, it mentions that the enemies onscreen are limited just by the PS3's memory.

Was this game terrible enough that it didn't warrant a cursory glance in Weekly Kusoge?
Yeah probably.

Wasn't this the one NISA officially apologized for localizing? Or was that Last Rebellion?

Wasn't this the one NISA officially apologized for localizing? Or was that Last Rebellion? It was Last Rebellion and Ar Tonellico II. EDIT: for the sake of not having to skim through the entire interview, a transcription: "Once we got Last Rebellion we realized it was not the kind of title we should release in the United States because of its quality. I feel really sorry for our customers because we released that title. That’s why I told Nao (PR Manager) we have to release the announcement for Last Rebellion, but never push that title. We cannot say it’s a really great title. We felt really sorry, but we had no choice to release that."

Back when news of this first broke my first thought was "oh lord it's a modern Sega CD game."
