Its Diablo + Gauntlet + Square/Enix production values!

Im currently level 17 and im in the DESERT fighting MONSTARSSSSSS. I chose the mage type character and currently favor the bow, but the sword is still great for chewing through the enemy.

The gem system is really cool and adds a lot of variety that is somewhat lacking in the available equipment. For example the gem that adds a shockwave to my sword combo, or the gem that adds an extra bonus to my FURY MODE. I also like how the size and alignment of the gems requires some thought when youre arranging them for your character.

You can also create new gems at the gem shop from what youve found in dungeons, and you can get some nice ones from missions. I am hoping there are some gems that affect my bow cause the bow rocks. It even has some AUTO AIM so im not trying to line up directly below or to the side of an enemy. The game just figures out who the fuck im trying to shoot. The bow also has that cool Stun magic secondary

See I hope when the main page gets up you start doing things like this for it, that would be awesome.

You really get people interested in the games. I'll check it out MAF

I still want to get Clubhouse Games, and there are a couple of games that have come out that I want (Tetris and Sonic), plus I am definitely going to get Children of Mana, Final Fantasy III and Castlevania somehow.

DS ftw.

cubicle47b · « **Reply #7 on:** November 03, 2006, 01:02:05 PM »

I bought it and am fairly underwhelmed so far. I've only played through a couple dungeons, though, so maybe it'll get a lot better.

edit: It is pretty, though.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #8 on:** November 03, 2006, 01:02:55 PM »

Anyone who hates it is a dumb and just yearns for Secret of Mana which sucked anyway. This is dungeon hack n slash baby!

cubicle47b · « **Reply #9 on:** November 03, 2006, 01:04:40 PM »

Oh, shut up. I knew what I was getting when I bought the game. It's just not as fun to me anymore. It just makes me want to play Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance again.

edit: Or Alundra, I could go for some puzzles.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #10 on:** November 03, 2006, 01:05:56 PM »

U SHUT UP!

Alundra roxxed

Loooks like a download for me. Thanks.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #17 on:** November 03, 2006, 06:38:25 PM »

OMG LOOKS FUCK AWESOME

Diablo you say? *giggles*

Alas, I probably shouldn't spend $40 on anything right now. I'll spent $15 on a god damn haircut tomorrow, and maybe go to Gamestop and see if they have a Wii. But...I'll probably wind up getting this godly looking game.

I haven't bought a game since...New Super Mario Bros...I think. I don't remember

That's what I want to know. I know you can play wirelessly with friends a few feet away, but could me and MAF explore dungeons and kill MONSTARRRSSS a million miles away?

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #22 on:** November 03, 2006, 09:13:17 PM »

Haha White Guy thats awesome. Also PD, its 30 bux.Its just local ad hoc wireless, its supposedly really good tho. I just single player it tho, I love dungeon crawling.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #23 on:** November 03, 2006, 09:20:00 PM »

Stupid Gamestop has it at $35, as does Walmart. Where ever you live must be bargain land $:-\$

I might pick it up. But, I know I shouldn't buy anything...damn. And I want the first GBA Fire Emblem, which is only $20 :'(

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #24 on:** November 03, 2006, 09:21:56 PM »

Gamecrazy I think?

As long as you dont have some bizzare hope that its like Secret of Mana and understand its a hack n slash rpg with gem customization and loot and missions and a main story you'll be happy with what you get.

Most everyone who doesnt like it are dorky nostalgics lol. There really isnt anything else like it on the DS right now.

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #25 on:** November 03, 2006, 09:30:22 PM »

This will be the first Mana game I've played lol, so no worries there

I'll pick it up tomorrow maybe, and just get a haircut next week

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #26 on:** November 03, 2006, 09:31:34 PM »

Himu · « **Reply #27 on:** November 04, 2006, 12:37:54 AM »

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #28 on:** November 04, 2006, 12:38:59 AM »

Legend was great. Secret of Mana was shit.

Well you can bank on the accuracy of the information ive provided. But if you expect me to somehow channel my subjective JOY into your experience thats your own fault ;P
