This game just proves that Square enix isnt running outta ideas, i give this game a 8.9
Its fun and keeps you interested straight to the end. The combat is fun and the attack customisation makes you want to train and keep doing it till its full power !
The Music in this game is spectacular compared to other ds games, it actually sounds like music instead of you poliphonic sounds you ussauly get.
And even voice acting at the start and end cutscenes and little "Yeahs !" and "whats !?" keep you knowing who is talking and make you kno how the character is.
This game has provent he DS to be more than another generation handheld, they utilize it perfectely.
I mean WHAT ELSE are you going to do if you have to screens ? puts a map ther? maybe ther stats ? NO you do what square does best and uses everything to maximize anything !
Battle system genious, i mean it, annoying at first pwnage at end. Lemme explain what i did, i had it ther i did auto play, then i took it off started to press left and right occasionally, when i got joshua i tried to multi task by sneaking glances to check on him, and by the time i had beat, i actually hit the combos i needed ! Hard but fun to use once you get the hang of it.
Graphics yes ther sprites but if this was 3D could you imagine how much things would be left out ? I say appropriate for the game, and the cutscenes and dialouge parts where fantastic, i found myself drawing fan art after i finished the game !
Length and game story. Good game length and story was smart and kept you wanting more, i clocked the game in 2 weeks, but a good well spent two weeks. AND even after you complete the game thiers alot more !
Gameplay-Good battles, good adventure field (or world ?) 8
Story-Fantastic keeps you wanting more and more but left you annoyed alittle. 7
Graphics-Sprites but good enough for the game. 7
Sound-Fantastic best DS music ever ! 10
Overall-Good game kept you wanting more very unique and has alot to offer in such a small -package. 8.9
