Despite being a moderate Atlus fanboy, I have to admit that they’ve made some pretty questionable imports over the years. Their latest release, Baroque (PS/Wii), is likely to go down in the books as either too artsy to be accepted by the general populace, or just plain bad, joining its comrade Unlimited [...]
