 Rating: - The World Starts With You!I was like the many who were not too sure about this game but heard enough good things to give a shot. BEST MOVE EVER! I am over 50 hours into a DS game and i'm not bored after the main game is over! Everything about this game is unique and refreshing. After you beat the game there is still much to do and accomplish. The combat does eventually get a little repetitive but different. This is absolutely a must buy! Rating: - Wow! Amazing game!I have to say... this game is one of a kind. It can be extremely easy or pretty difficult, and it all depends on you. the combat system is pretty awesome. Using pins, though, kind of reminds me of using cards (like in kingdom hearts: chain of memories.) Still, the game is a fresh take on a classic genre. Though the plot is a little linear, you find yourself growing attached to the characters. And who could beat that music? I find myself humming it when I'm not playing! This is ...

Strange as it is, I haven't played much DS games but not for lack of games but just lack of funds. I thought I'd give The World Ends With You a shot and while I wouldn't say ... Read More Rating: - The World Ends if you don't buy this gameI'm not sure who comes to Amazon looking for advice on which games to get, but I can't say enough good things about TWEWY. It has, quite literally, the very best battle system I have ever played in an action RPG, not to mention one of the most demanding- in battle, you control characters on both screens at once, and though it may seem overwhelming (and in the beginning, it very well may be), you'll soon be chaining combos and earning pins at an astounding rate. Don't let this end up on ... Read More Rating: - Square Hits a Home RunThe first thing that struck me about `The World Ends With You' is the high quality of the production values. This is a one slick looking game. The next thing that hit me was how complicated the game is. I tend to prefer simpler RPG's like Paper Mario and the fantastic Mario and Luigi games but once you get past the moderate learning curve this is an awesome game. It's also a game the devilishly hard to put down. As with just about every RPG ever created the meat of the game involves battles ... Read More |
