Wild Arms 3, known in Japan as Wild Arms Advanced 3rd (ワイルドアームズ アドヴァンスドサード, Wairudo Āmuzu Adovansudo Sādo?), is a role-playing game developed by Media.Vision and Sony Computer Entertainment for the Sony PlayStation 2 video game console, and the sequel to Wild Arms and Wild Arms 2. Sony released it in Japan and North America in 2002 and Ubisoft published it in Europe in 2003.
It is the first game in the Wild Arms series in which all party members are able to use ARMs. It was also the first console role-playing game released in the United States to use cel-shaded animation. It replaced equippable armor and weapons with 'Personal Skills' via Guardian (Mediums) invocation.
Famous quotes containing the words wild and/or arms:
“We would not always be soothing and taming nature, breaking the horse and the ox, but sometimes ride the horse wild and chase the buffalo.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“On a flat road runs the well-trained runner,
He is lean and sinewy with muscular legs,
He is thinly clothed, he leans forward as he runs,
With lightly closed fists and arms partially raised.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
