Gaming Game Suggestions

[Domination]

i'm in the mood to play an RPG and am sort of wanting to delve into the Dragon Quest universe. I've never played a dragon quest game all the way through, and i think the only one's i've played at all were 1 or 2...possibly 3. like, the much older, simple graphic versions.

so my question is this. of the current (particularly recently released) DQ games - which comes more highly recommend? I guess it comes down to DQIV vs DQV. unless there is a better one that is somewhat recent (i just don't feel like playing something with NES graphics right now).

thoughts? thanks.

DQV.... Theres the wagon which allows recruiting of monsters as party members and you can marry one of the three girls

.... Plus I love the story.

For DQIV..... I didn't like it though some others did. You have 5 chapters to paly through, in each new chapter your level is back to lv 1 because you have a new character.

Genre: Platformer, Action, Shooter

Exceptions:Yoshi games, NSMB, Castlevania games, Kirby, Bangai-o. (I've beat these or have tried them).

Additional info: If its homebrew, I'l give it a try as well. And Domination, back off with Starfy man!

Thanks guys

Other additional info Just any, but preferred english

RPG: Your "FF", does it include FFCC games? If not, go try them. And Avalon Code, a refreshing new concept in an ARPG game. And of course the Rune Factory games. Farming and ARPG together.

Platformer: Mario duh, you didn't mentioned it. And Henry Hatsworth, hybrid between puzzle and platformer.

And sorry I dun play rhythm games, I suck at them.

RPG - Suikoden Tierkreis (if you can survive the voice acting you will learn it's an addictive and awesome game)

Rhythm - The only game you didn't mention is Daigasso! Band Brothers series (it's in Japanese so you might need a translation). Also there's homebrew with good choices like VideoGame Hero and DsDsR.

Request:
I'm looking for a game that takes place in high school, or deals with high school life. It would be even better, if it were an adventure/mystery game (something in the vein of the Phoenix Wright series).

Time Hollow fits this bill, but I've already played it. Anyone have any other recommendations?

 

[Platinum14]

Genre: graphic novel

Exceptions: Hotel Dusk, Phoenix Wright series

Additional info: N/A

Thanks.

 

[Kabukistar]

Platinum14:
Try "Time Hollow"


EDIT: Also, if you have a flash cart, there's a homebrew program called "Visual Novel DS" that lets you play a number of visual novel games that were originally for PC.

Other Additional InfoI'd like an RPG with not an INSANE amount of random battles. A cool soundtrack would be nice. Also an anime style would be nice too.

CONCERNING ANIMEs AND RPGs THESE ARE THE ONES THAT GOT MY ATENTION
Try Naruto RPG 2 and DRAGONBALL KAI SAYAJIN RAISHUU if you don't mind japanese
but if you want english there's NARUTO PATH OF NINJA SERIES

 

[KingdomBlade]

The ones he said are pretty much the only ones with anime style but if you want one that is REALLY good, go for KH358/2 Days. Since you can just run to the next door without the heartless bothering you, I think that would be good.

 

[Domination]

Those are anime games, not anime-styled games to be precise.

If you want anime styled RPGs.

ARPG: Avalon Code. Rune Factory 1/2 (Harvest Moon with ARPG factors)

Turn Based Battles RPG: Suikoden Tierkreis (kind of), Shin Megami Tensei (TB battles, but SRPG grid movement)

 

[Technik]

What are some popular-ish games for ds?
I have some spare cash laying around and i'm thiking of buying a ds games

 

[Wintrale]

Turn Based Battles RPG: Suikoden Tierkreis (kind of), Shin Megami Tensei (TB battles, but SRPG grid movement)

To be honest, I think Devil Survivor is strictly a Strategy RPG. Why? 'Cause it's no different to any other SRPG where you move a unit and select an attack for them to use (just like in FFTA2, Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon, Disgaea DS and a bunch of others). The only real difference is that you select attacks for three people rather than just one and that, if you choose your attacks wisely, you get to attack a second time. It's basically an SRPG like FFTA2 with a few differences that make it stand out from the crowd.

@above Definitely pick up this game. It's bloody incredible. Well worth any DS owner's money.

 

[clegion]

yeah this is the second game i bought, the first was metroid prime hunters, the rest .....flashcart

Genre RPG
Exceptions FinalFantasy III, IV. Already tried: Avalon Code, Suikoden Tierkris, Chrono Trigger, Dragon Quest A few more but can't remember
Other additional infoI wants one~. I have tried multiple ones, but their story lines aren't good. I play the games for a while, and then I just get bored. But the only games that got my playing were Final Fantasy III and IV.

So far, those are the only games I am looking for. But then again, here's something else:

Genre Multiplayer (xDD. Doubt it is a Genre)
Exceptions MarioKart, Mario Hoops 3 on 3, Jump! Ultimate Stars Already tried: Mario Party DS, Jump Super Stars
Other additional infoYay multiplayer! Just so that, if I go to places, I can enjoy a game with a few friends. Has to have download play.

Wow you played a lot..... Well, try Black Sigil. May be hectic, but old school, kinda like CT. And.... Pokemon? Not in your list. Oh and the Mario Luigi RPG, suprisingly fun. And theres Dokapon Journey, its a board game based RPG.

Go to the multiplayers essentials list

. I'm not really sure about download play though. So maybe otehrs can recommedn some.

But then Bleach: Blade of Fate is good and has download play.

I'm not sure about download play for these games since I don't use it, but I liked them.The ones I have played are Dokapon Journey since its board game styled. And of course Bomberman 2 on classic battle mode. And Call of Duty. Not bad, the game. Also, if you liked Mario Kart, try My Sims Racing. Quite simillar, but with plenty of customization.

 

[Splych]

A few more I can't remember... Haha. Pokemon fits in there. I tried the Mario Luigi Partners in Time, but waiting for the RPG to come to NA. Don't wanna spoil anything for myself

Bomberman 2. I gotta get that. I used to have it on my DS, but took it off since I reformatted without backing up. All shooting games IMO have bad graphics on handheld consoles. So I prefer to play them on the consoles a home. PC, 360, PS3 and Wii.

Thanks for the help
