Yes, must buy.

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #2 on:** February 11, 2008, 02:42:04 PM »

I dunno if I'm ready for this sort of gameplay all over again, and my gf bought AW:DoR too so I don't need it for multi.

If it had a bustling online community it'd probably be worth it though. I'm definitely waiting for impressions (and downloading the demo)

I am skipping the new AW on the ds, i never go online with mine anyways. This might be fun.

Best gameplay of the series

I hated the other ds one because....

too much fucking reading.

I hear the new one has that in spades. PASS.

Fuck, maybe I should return Advance Wars.

FUCK I OPENED IT EVEN THOUGH I HAVEN'T PLAYED IT

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #10 on:** February 11, 2008, 04:24:54 PM »

The game rules, don't regret

AWDS2 is sweet, music rocks hard and theres plenty of jfaggotry lulz if youre into that sort of thing. the game is identical to AWDS1, dont let the fancy new units fool you

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #12 on:** February 11, 2008, 08:37:01 PM »

Which is a good thing, since the balance was totally fucked in 2 and DS.

And the Navy was useless in 1, but it is not in DoR.

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #13 on:** February 11, 2008, 11:08:02 PM »

Yea, pretty stupid.

Like I said, I'll either get it for online or wait 6 months.

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #14 on:** February 15, 2008, 12:43:54 AM »

Anyone?

demi · « **Reply #15 on:** February 15, 2008, 12:45:20 AM »

Got to the third mission in the trial and the distance between the buildings and how slow the units move was offputting. I didnt feel like being at a stalemate all day. No thanks.

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #16 on:** February 15, 2008, 12:47:14 AM »

fuck

There's no animation skip? Or you mean their move range was low?

demi · « **Reply #17 on:** February 15, 2008, 12:48:09 AM »

You didnt play it? Well, I dont think I'll tell you now.

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #18 on:** February 15, 2008, 12:49:13 AM »

Lost Odyssey + night class + Valentine's. Demo is d/led tho

Thanks for not putting this on the Japanese Marketplace MS Xbox Japan! You are the best!

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #20 on:** February 15, 2008, 10:33:11 AM »

Isn't it up to the devs to translate it? I saw someone saying that it'd probably never be out in Japan because it's Sierra.
