i got this game on easter. so far it's the best game i've ever played! you get to pick between 6 characters: Toan: his weapons are a variety of daggers and swords. Xiao: different kinds of sling shots. Ruby: with mant kinds of magical rings. Goro: axes,hammers and other heavy weapons. the other two names i can,t spell but i'll try ;) onsgaga: spears and staffs. osmond: laser guns and machine guns.
you get to build many citys. I think there is 5 but i'm not sure because i havn't beaten it. All in all it is the best role playing game ever.
good stuff

yea, it was supposed to show up at launch. They delayed it, and it doesn't show from what i played. It wasn't fun, i don't know exactly what i didn't like, but it just wasn't something you want to play
World building = fun. Dungeons = crap. Weapon system = UGH!

Dark Cloud is a Zelda/Actraiser hybrid that seems to try too hard to be perfect on the town buidling part and neglects some things in the dungeon battles. For one, having to throw powder on your weapon to keep it from breaking is stupid. What idiot thought that idea up? Plus the weapon building system is long and complex and not really explained well enough. They should just have better weapons lying in treasure chests as you go along.

I wasnt planning on getting this game, but when i went to pick up Twisted Metal Black the store was having a sale if u get 2 games. So i got Dark Cloud. Im now wishing id got Red Faction or NBA Street instead.
I usally like RPG games, and im a big fan of the zelda series, but this game is [bad]. The story is completely [bad], and the gameplay is boring and repetitive. Do yourself a favor and dont get this game.

Firstly, this game was supposed to be a Zelda killer. This game is nowhere near that. Some people may like this game for reasons beyond me, but im going to guess that that number of people is small. The game starts out kind of fun, the first dungeon isnt tedious, and the georama (town maker) is fun to a certain extent. The first boss is too hard for a first boss, and while in the first dungeon, you will find out that weapons break WAY too easily. After you move to the second town, the dungeons get so boring that i had to quit. The dungeons are randomly generated, which basically means no cool zelda puzzles, or cool fight scenes. You end up having to kill all the enemies in the dungeon just for a little bit of fun, and that wears thin after a while. In all, stay away from this game unless you are bored, or want to rent it for a quick play on the weekend.
