It's one of my favorite RPG's. You really should try it out. It has multiple endigs, lots of costumization, you can convince other demons to join your party, evolve them and fuse them into more powerful allies. You can fuse demons into main bosses that you have fought in the game. Dante is also available and he can be part of your party depending on which path you choose. The story is really top notch and the game is difficult at times.

If you have played Persona games then you will definately enjoy this one since Persona really has nothing going on compared to Nocturne. Good luck finding a copy though.

I LOVED it it is one of THE best RPGS on the PS2 but beware it is VERY different from your average JRPG (no happy story, no real heroes, ANYONE can become your ally, battles can be VERY tricky if you don't know what to do) and the game is brutally dark (creepy and depressing environments and situations 24/7 and the story is definitely not for people with close mind specially regarding catholic religion)

Remember to get Dante :D and evolve your poke...I mean demons :P

Yes it is worth hunting down for. There was a reprint a few weeks ago. You can find it for $30 on ebay. This game is what JRPGs is suppose to be. A deep, mature excellent story. You'll adore it's presentation of storytelling. The art style is mind-blowing. The level designs are some of the best. This is an orgasm to your eyes. The battle system is simple, but you need the intelligence. You need to strategize and plan your moves ahead. Don't expect to just using attack the whole time. The music is breath-taking. You'll remember this game for years, and enjoy it's hidden message and artistic ambitions. It's difficult though.
