A lot of people screwed up in 2008 and missed Valkyria Chronicles. A delightful little strategy role-playing game, Valkyria Chronicles merged third-person shooters, anime cutscenes, and hardcore strategy gameplay into one watercolor PlayStation 3 package that many loved and a lot skipped. Now, the sequel is upon us and it's a PSP exclusive. Valkyria Chronicles II is a bit more light-hearted than the original and predictable in places, but it's an amazing game nonetheless.
If you missed the first game, Valkyria Chronicles II is self-contained enough so that you can jump right in without an issue and have a blast. If you loved the last title, you're in for more of the stuff you dug and a whole heaping batch of fan service.
Valkyria Chronicles II picks up two years after the first game. The duchess of Gallia has revealed herself to be a Darcsen -- a dark-haired race that's viewed to be less than equal by most -- and this has split the country. Some stand by her, while others have splintered off into a rebel squad that's caused a civil war. With the Gallian army stretched, the cadets at Lanseal Military Academy are charged with picking up the slack in between classes and training.
