"Disgaea: Hour of Darkness"

I noticed that a lot of people have been talking about this game recently and I thought that it would be good to have your opinions of it. Lalakersrule says that he has clocked up 800 hours on it so either it is very very addictive or Lalakersrule is extremely sad. ;-) Anyway, I was looking through the latest issue of Official Playstation Two Magazine and I saw a preview of it and to my horror it only had a quarter of a page when GTA: San Andreas had six pages on it! So I looked down and saw why. 2D graphics!!! I know that it has sold millions in Japan and other countries but I never thought that it would have Two-dimesional graphics. I am not saying that graphics are the most important part of a game but I expected a game that had sold so well to have at least half-decent graphics for god's sake. But I still think that after so many good reviews there is quite a large chance of me buying it when it comes out over here.

So what do you guys think of it? I don't want people saying stuff like 'oh yeah, it sounds good'. I want people who have imported it to give me a first-hand review and help me out.

Thanks in advance,

Wakka.

Nope, you have 14 episodes each of which have around 5 stages. That's the main game but i find i spend more time in the item world just levelling everything up

I'm definetly getting it when It comes out over here!!! ;-)

Does it tell you how much percent you have completed it?

You can capture enemies so i'm doing a bit of pokemon at the moment :-D

That sounds cool.

Quite happy today, finally managed to capture the last of my dragons so now i have a army of level 50 Dragons ready to cause mayhem and destruction on everyone mwhahahahaha

My number One would be Shining Force 2 for the Sega Mega Drive. I racked up at least 1000 hours on that game. It was absoulety amazing.

1 or 2. Depends what mood i'm in when it comes to rating Sensible World of Soccer

Note: That is not a cue for someone to create *Your top 100 games of all time* topic. We have enough of the bloody *rate this* topics as it is

Not in your top 100!??!? Wow that is so weird because I really enjoyed it. In your top 100 what naumber would Disgaea be?

Well like i said we all have differing opinions that's what makes the big choice of games a good thing. Personally i wouldn't rate FFX or X-2 in my top 100 but that's just me. As long as you enjoyed it that's all that matters

I wish I had access to those games. *Sigh* I am missing out on so much............

I really enjoyed Final Fantasy X and thought it was truly amazing and thoroughly enjoying. I loved it and was addicted for hours on end.

I think that Final Fantasy X 2 was better than the original and I rate Final Fantasy X 2 in my top 25 games of all time.
