Great turn-based RPG

DragonQuest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King, is a great RPG for gamers to play. It has great game-play, graphics, story line, voice actors, and battle system. This RPG has some awesome humor moments that will make you laugh and keep you involved in the storyline from the beginning of the game all the way to the end. This game is worth the price you will pay for it. This game has 80+ hours of game-play, stunning cut scenes and many mini games that make it a must own for the PS2. This is re-playable anytime and it will be a classic for this series in no time.

Having played DW games since the NES days I had a fair idea as to how the controls would handle. The character movement is sharp and the response time for the commands is just right. I found that the controls have a fluid feel and the menu and such is well laid out. The Menu has been redefined and it takes some getting used to but after a half hour it was like second nature to me. Controls Rating = B+ Next up Visuals. The game looks beautiful. This is some of the best cel-shading I have ever seen in a game. The look and feel of the world is breathtaking. One of the neat features is the ability... read full review »

One of the best RPGs of '05

This is one of the greatest games in since the Dragon Warrior series began!!! Top notch graphics, and hours upon hours of gameplay. A MUST GET for any series RPGer, or someone just wanting something to take up a lot of time! :)

Great RPG

I loved this game. Lots of great storylines. Great graphics. A great RPG. Ranks up there with Zelda in my book. Doesn't require great reflex skills - all mental.
