It's a very good title, but one that requires a lot of patience.
It’s not easy to dislike Project X Zone, not only for its popular characters but also because it can be fun if played in small amounts, maybe a chapter a day.

Devoid of tactical depth and exhaustingly repetitive - yet somehow still entertaining and enjoyable, if taken in moderation. [Sept 2013, p.76]

One of the most beautiful games ever. It is enough that it has many wonderful stories and characters. Until now, no new part of the series has been released.

Engaging visual with interesting crossover concept, however, held back by its repetitive gameplay and mediocre story

Project X Zone shows how crossover games should be done, celebrating the rich history of Namco Bandai, SEGA and Capcom, while making all the included characters shine.

As much as I loved Project X Zone, it's not for everyone. The story is incomprehensible. It can be pretty repetitive. And those lacking a strong attachment to Capcom, Namco Bandai, and Sega's iconic characters might want to stay away. That said, this is a love letter from Japan that just any RPG fan should seriously consider checking out.

This game. It's odd, but good. Essentially, the game is a crazy mix up of Namco Bandai, SEGA, & Capcom characters that allows for a lot of variants in combat, that can create various scenarios. In addition, the game has plenty to offer in terms of fan-service, references, and the story is pretty good considering the standard set by most cross overs is pretty low. Finally, there's the music. It is amazing. While all of it is 16/32 bit it does the originals justice. Over all, it is pretty long, being around 45-50 Hours long. So it deserves a 10/10. Here's hoping the sequel is just as awesome.

Though simple, the game still gives you enough challenge to keep you playing.

Capcom, Namco and Sega deliver a new world record in pure fan service. Although the strategy parts and fighting could be better, this is still well worth your time and highly recommended for old school gamers.

Project X Zone forgot to put the 'tactical' and 'strategy' in tactical turn-based strategy. It lacks depth, which is a shame for a game that could've scored big. It also isn't challenging varied enough, but the great characters manage to alleviate some of those issues.

When Project X Zone arrived, I was eager and immediately threw it into my 3DS expecting a glorious time. When at last I finished it over seventy hours later, my stance had become a mixed bag.

With the wealth of RPGs, and even great SRPGs, that have arrived on the 3DS in the last several months, it would almost be unconscionable not to recommend one of those games instead of Project X Zone. Fun combat and screaming Tekken characters can only take you so far.

Great game, very addictive, and as far as I know it is not necessary to compare with the super JRPG's... I think this is like a mix between Final Fantasy Tactics and the Combo-like moves from Tekken, SF, KoF... Well done, and very fun for the old school gamers. Recommended 100%

Project X Zone is a shallow Fire Emblem turn base RPG. It's big selling point is the Sega, Namco and Capcom team up with its popular characters. Why this game disappoints is that it mixes the genres of a fighting and shooting and put them into a RPG which sadly doesn't fit cause it limits them to a few moves.

Boring, repetitive, large amount of characters (this works against the game because it wants to introduce every single character) bland "rpg" style with stupid way to do "combos", bland story that tries to get every single character on board without a really good story. definitely not recommended.
