75%Nier Review
Nier is an out of the ordinary title for Square Enix. A 'Kill Bill' style blood bath and foul language set it apart from most other titles developed by Square. Nier has some potential but is brought to its knees by long boring game play, lackluster graphics, all accompanied by shoddy voice acting.
