Accessories: Editorial Review: Product Description: Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner guides you through thrilling episodes of action and intrigue, as you learn the incredible secrets of the Soulless Army! Raidou Kuzunoha is a private detective in Japan's Taishou Period of the 1910s and 1920s, but he's much more than just a well-dressed crime scene investigator; he also has the power to capture and conjure demons to do his bidding. Take control of Raidou and his otherworldly companions, guide them all through! Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Not badI've rated this game highly although compared to the other games in the same series it's probably the weakest. But it does hold a lot of fun. The story sems to be touted as a deep dark mystery in official descriptions but I found it very sparse and not gripping at all. Basically a young man called Raidou is a "devil summoner" who can control demons and he uses this skill for good. He is hired by a detective to seek out some missing girl and of course this trail leads to a threat to the whole of humanity, ... Read More Rating:  - Take one devil from column A and another from column B...After enjoying Nocturne immensely I was warned off of the sequel Digital Devil Saga. After playing through Devil Summoner I'm beginning to suspect that this advice was faulty and that I need to find a copy of Digital Devil Saga. This is a very nicely done game that mixes Japanese culture and history with a series of mounting challenges and a complex battle system that involves everything from sword work to demon summoning. Plenty of entertainment to be had. Raidou Kuzonoha is a high school ... Read More Rating: - The Gumshoe's LamentTo avoid becoming stale, Devil Summoner, the fourth game with the Shin Megami Tensei name to be released on the PS2 in three years, had to change its focus. The other MegaTen games for the PS2, as well as the PS1 spin-off series Persona and the gameboy's Demi-Kids series, were all challenging turn-based, dungeon crawling RPGs. Devil Summoner, while retaining some of the characteristics of previous MegaTen games, has largely scrapped tradition by throwing out the strategy-heavy turn-based system for a more ... Read More Rating: - Despite being a short game, Devil Summoner is another good helping of SMTBeing the 4th SMT game for the PS2, SMT: Devil Summoner is probably the easiest spinoff of the core series that which players can get into. And here is why: Rather than relying upon a traditional turn based RPG battle system (or the innovative press turn icon system that SMT: Nocturne started), the battles in the game are all action oriented. They are all in real time, and there are no turns involved at all. You also have the ability to of course summon demons during battle and have them aid you ... Read More Rating: - A new look for the MegaTen franchiseWhile Shin Megami Tensei Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs the Soulless Army isn't actually an SMT game, it is a member of the franchise. It is actually part of a family of spin-off games in the MegaTen series that is just using the SMT name to establish connections between the different series in the franchise finally appearing in America. While not too many people are familiar with the games past, this one takes the series in a new direction. Devil Summoner is the first game in the MegaTen franchise ... Read More |
