Atelier aris; Good premise, broken game.

The reason i gave this game a one is because of the fact that it seems to be a broken product. The game freezes during the transistion between chapter 11 and 12. The game overall was very enjoyable, yet any form of a broken game, isn't worthy of a rating higher then a 1 as this is unacceptable in today's industry. I tried the game on 4 different PS2's, all of which ran the game flawlessly up to the transistion part I mentioned and then it just freezes; my last time attempting it, the transition loaded, but it loaded a image of Viese sitting on her table and not moving whatsoever and then it proceeded to crash. I've checked the disc for any form of scratches and their are no visible scratches, whatsoever.
SO i send this game back severely dissapointed that the developers allowed a bug like this that makes the game unfinishable,I am also aware that their is another bug like this on Chapter 20 as well. I am generally skeptical to blame game's for the reason of freezing, but after reading various messageboards, it seems that their are critical bugs galore among the game.
Gust & Atlus, thanks for dropping the ball.
