    DS #3902: Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor (USA)

    As gemini said, it's a different beast. I think rather than "what is better?" it's more "Is this worth playing?" To that I'd say yes. I'd say that this has much stronger story and character than Disgaea. Disgaea always seemed to me combat system 1st, everything else is second. This is in my...

    DS #3902: Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor (USA)

    Wow, I'm really enjoying this game. First off, I love the presentation. Sure the enchanted game console/handheld concept isn't the most original, but it doesn't make it any less fun. I really like all the colorful dialogue, and how learning the game system is integrated into the process...

    DS #3652: The Dark Spire (USA)

    Personally I like the lack of visible hard numbers for things like say weapons. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that a longsword is probably going to hurt more than a short dagger. The game isn't obtuse, you just are trying to rely on crutches that modern gaming conventions have...

    DS #3652: The Dark Spire (USA)

    Well said patomime. Not for the instant gratification type that have no definition of depth of gameplay.

    DS #3652: The Dark Spire (USA)

    Well back on topic to the game, I love it! I'm an hour in and having a blast. I read an interview about how surprised the localization team was about how much text there actually is. It actually makes a huge difference, particularly if on classic mode. I'm still using Modern, but it's nice...

    Gaming Mahjongg recommendations

    Kidou Gekidan Haro Ichiza: Gundam Mahjong + Z I'm not terribly sure about the wi-fi options, but damn is the game fun. It's basically an SD Gundam joke story framework where you play mahjong to resolve situations. There's loads of collectible mecha and other craft from the Gundam universe...

    DS #3512: Suikoden Tierkreis (Europe)

    Y'know the more you ignore the trolls like that, the easier it is to piss them off. They want to rile you up and defend your position. You're putting more effort into it then they need to set you off. Just let it go. Since I don't give perfect 10s to any game (reserving for perfection I may...

    DS #3512: Suikoden Tierkreis (Europe)

    I can confirm the problem Sudo was talking about. Happened in the same area. I'm not sure it's a matter of the multiple languages. It's almost like the elaborate language they used in Japanese pushed the translator to take an extra dialogue box or two to flesh out what they were saying into...

    DS #3499: Rittai Picross (Japan)

    Brilliant game, and I love how intuitive the tutorials are. The little animations after every clear are a wonderful touch.

    DS #3512: Suikoden Tierkreis (Europe)

    Well the dub is flat out terrible, but actually I'm liking the fact that the music is gone from the general gameplay. I wish more titles had the oppotunity to shut it off.

    ROM Hack undubing avalon code

    Well in Suikoden I see \data\rom\ex1\sound_data.sdat Debating whether I should also change ds_data_hed.sdat and ds_data_vow.sdat as well. *edit* And of course the movies too...

    Gaming NDS & Wii Titles: 16th to 20th March 2009

    Yeah, damn shame about the other SRW not being able to come to the states. Anyway, lots of good stuff coming, though honestly I could care less about GTA. I had fun in Vice City back in the day, I think I'll leave it at that.

    Gaming NDS & Wii Titles: 6th to 13th March 2009

    Avalon Code is actually a little worse than I had hoped. Enchanted Folk is so-so, but liking it more than Animal Crossing. Rittai Picross is freaking addictive as hell. Even in Japanese, the tutorials that go over the various game mechanics were VERY intuitive. I already cleared Easy and...

    Gaming Avalon Code Topic

    Take the fire code from the flower that the game forces you to do, and place it with a weapon. Make sure the background shows flames. If you add in Ice or something else you risk making it a "Mixed" weapon. Now that you have a flame weapon, swipe the torches. Sure for max points it says to...
