Claude, I'm not sure if you'd like it, but if you liked PSO this offline feels like Lunar meets PSU in a PSO game but online, this is just strait PSO.

Online mode is hardcore addicting stuff, not even gateway, this was made clearly to be addicting.

SNAP SHOT!

This is my impression, this is not a rating or review just a snap shot.

1. Music – The music is very nice, at times ambient at times discourse it really sinks in, there are times where they remixed PSU music in and I didn’t like that, I don’t want to be sold PSU, don’t even want to be reminded of it.

2. Graphics – Visual presentation is like Tales of Symphonia 2, where it’s passable for what it is. But definitely not bad, Sega did superbly with this game graphically.

3. Offline Content – All there, I’m not sure if I’ve explored everything actually but there is about 80 hours of offline play as there are three different stories.

4. Online Content- Again it’s all there, this is the best console online experience I’ve had well actually handheld experience, I’m putting this up against even PSN. Maybe because my standards were so low from all the years of Friend Codes suck. The game is meant for Online, without friend codes you can still play in free matches with up to 4 others. You can check off the areas you’re willing to go to and difficulty and the game will find others in queue with identical prerequisites and it doesn’t take very long… for me anyway.

5. Online Content With Friends – This is where the game shines, the chatting works great if you are keen on the idea of drawing emotes with words attached. You don’t have to draw them all the time, I’ve had a few people steal my emotes V_V. Anyway the game allows you to add other players without inserting Friend codes on the fly (just 2 clicks). After that the game pings you when players get online while you’re doing runs. So if you’re just doing free runs cause no one was online the game lets you know they are on and their connections status (lobby, waiting for party, doing run). In the end the online is great. You can trade items and all that good stuff and keep in mind this is a DS game.

6. Game Play – It’s PSO if you don’t know what that is… I can’t describe it and keep this short so I’ll just say picture Diablo 2 minus the devil and the totally gothic climate. The game has around 80 hours of game play in it minus the tower which is a time black hole (it sucked the sink in it).

Your theory on eternal tower won't work cause you have to beat it on hard before you can get super hard!

I just picked this one up last night, pretty sweet, it's kinda hard lol but I'm playing by myself and lack good equipment.

Maxwell ahoy!

Whats your FC and nickname. ^_^, the good thing about the DS is I have it on me all the time now. I can pull you into some higher level places so you can catch some levels.

Darn it that is epic fail for me, I still can't beat Dark Falz, I almost did then accidentally jerked the DS cartridge and froze.

Ok going to be online in an hour or so if you want to play chris.

Im at work...won't be able to play with you until Friday night

I know Words of Wisdom is also playing this.

I'll post up my friend code as soon as I take it online which might be a while since I'm the type to play a game singleplayer/local a while before going online.
