-TNC

 

[XwolverineX]

Other - PSP


But my favorite DS games is : Mario and Luigi : Partners in Time

 

[Axid]

PSP= ooverhyped by Son00bs and overpriced crap

I would go with either Mario Kart & Metroid Prime... but all of the ones you posted are soooo good

 

[TNC9852002]

I was considering MaLPiT too..

Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow is a must. I've been playing that straight for a month and almost have 100% on the main game and I am almost done with the side game.

Were you already a Castlevania fan, Geki?

[CrypticOne]

Castlevania.

YOU SHOULD BUY 'OBLIVION'. YOU CAN SET THE BOX IN YOUR LAP, SO YOU'LL HAVE SOMETHING SUBSTANTIAL TO REST THE 'DS' ON.

Ummm...

Depends on what kind of games you like.

I've got:
Brain Age
Tetris DS
New Super Mario
Markio Kart DS
Touch Memory
Sonic DS
and an import called Daigasso Brothers

Love every one of those games for different reasons.

If all you have right now is NSMB, then I'd suggest something WiFi enabled, IF you have a wireless router so you can enjoy the online play.

If so, get Tetris DS or Mario Kart. Both are WiFi-enabled, and both are probably the best versions of their franchises so far. Haven't enjoyed a Tetris game since Tetrisphere on N64...this game rules!

If WiFi is not available to you, get something like Castlevania. I haven't played it yet, but I can tell by the talk and by the videos I've seen that I'll be owning it pretty soon. Looks incredible.


OH! And if there's a Circuit City near you. Go. There. NOW. We have tons of games for every console (except X360) for only $8.96 each! This includes a few fun DS games like Ultimate Spider-Man and Touch Memory. I bought Touch Memory for the $9, and it was definitely worth it for only that much. Not much replay value, but the puzzles and the way you have to utilize the DS to solve them are some of the best puzzles I've seen in a game before. So yeah, if it's only $9 get it.

Castlevania, have you checked out some of the gameplay videos? When you fight a boss, and all the bosses are pretty awesome, most filling the screen, you have to 'seal them away' by drawing symbols on them.

Awesome? Yes.

Same here.

Tetris. Without a f'ingizzle doubt. Tetris.

Overhyped maybe, but underrated aswell.

You are right, instead of earning a -20% approval in my book, I should change it to something more realistic...0%

I never thought we'd ever agree on something.


But, I really never understood the PSP hate. Daxter, Sphyon Filter, Lumines, Pursuit Force, MLB '06 the Show, Exit, Mega Man Powered Up, etc are all great games for PSP. And MGS:PO, GTA:VCS, TekkenR, FF:CC and Loco Roco are all on there way.

 

[TNC9852002]

Have any of you played Polarium?

-TNC

 

[Axid]

It's fun, but meteos is much better.

 

[TNC9852002]

Aren't they two different kinds of puzzle games though?

If that's not the case, then how do they compare to Tetris and Magnetica?

Also, the thing I've noticed, is how Polarium is dirt cheap (roughly $10), compared to other puzzle games (roughly $30).

I wouldn't say I was a fan. I enjoyed Castlevania III on the NES quite a lot when I was younger, but that was the only Castlevania game I played before Dawn of Sorrow. After I beat the main game of DoS I got Symphony of the Night for $18 used at a Mom & Pop game store and I am enjoying that as well since there are quite a lot of similarities.

In addition to Castlevania I would recommend Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney.

It's different, but it's fun.

And Trauma Center

 

[Future Prez]

You can't forget New Super Mario Bros. Although the main adventure can be completed quickly, the challenge of collecting all the star coins and getting to all the worlds surpasses the main storyline. Also, AC:WW isn't a bad choice.

 

[Indiglo]

Did you even read the first post?

 

[TheGrayGhost]

Metroid Prime: Hunters. It is THE DS game.
