This Game Rocks!Oct 31, 2004
I've rented this game, (and still playing it) and it is super awesome! It's lots of fun! Here's a summary:
You play as Yami Yugi and Yugi who are now in a new tournament on an island, sort of like Duelist Kingdom, except it's not run by Pegasus. There are four stages in which you fight five people per stage. You can buy monsters at the entrance hall, but usually you win two from each duel. The game is NOT like the card game like some people think.
Your monsters work like this:
Light beats Dark
Dark beats Earth
Earth beats Thunder
Thunder beats Light
Water beats Fire
Fire beats Wood
Wood beats Wind
Wind beats Water
You start off by picking your symbol, which is a crystal, statue and color combination. Your crystal is either one of the elements and determines your starting monsters attributes.
The games starts off reletively easy, and Joey Wheeler is your first match. It is where you learn the basics of the game, and what happens on certain areas of the bored and how certain things affect your monsters.
There aren't any life points, except on your monsters. The goal of the duels is too destroy your opponents symbol, or to destroy there monsters, and as you go higher into the game, the numbers of monsters on the field may vary.
Right now I'm on stage three, and I'm kind of having a hard time with it, since it's much harder than the first two. I've beaten two of the duelists so far.
The graphics in the game are pretty good, but hey, it's definitely not SquareEnix stuff, but I give Konami their props. During dialog throught the game, they use the American Dub voices to read it, and make the characters talk, and it really isn't so bad. It gets annoying sometimes though when Yami Yugi or your opponent are all like, "I'm gonna win!" or "It won't end like this!"
I personally, love this game, but it's up to you if you wanna play it or not. Just giving you my opinion. I give the game a 10/10.

In ancient Egypt, one boy unleashed the power...!Aug 21, 2005

Get ready for a great Yu-Gi-Oh! thriller packed with rivalry voiceovers, intense action and fun! This game is similiar to chess in most aspects - you have an army of familiar Yu-Gi-Oh! monster pieces and you go up against an opponent with them. Either destroy all of your opponent's monsters or his/her fabled crystal piece to win the duel! Basically, its a tournament where you play as Yami Yugi as you take on familiar opponents such as Mai Valentine, Rex Raptor and Weevil Underwood and use many different monsters like Dark Magiciuan, Kuriboh, Blue-Eyes White Dragon and even Exodia! During duels, you're monsters may evolve and fuse into more powerful ones and use special abilitys to take control of the duel! There's a versus (2P) mode and a shop owned by Solomon Motou, Yugi's grandpa where you can buy monsters to improve your capsule deck. There's voiceovers where both characters shout at eachother like in the cartoon and make comments about eachother's skills. This is a very fun and addictive game and I reckon you MUST get it!

A pretty cool game, once you get used to itOct 20, 2005

The only trouble I had with this game is that the controls and attacks are very different from "Yu-Gi-Oh! Duelists of the Roses". However, once you have adapted to the changes, it becomes a lot of fun. TIP: Be sure to select monsters with excellent movement/attack range (for quick strikes), and/or great durabilty (for a slugfest). I've only been playing it for a few days, but I love it! My rating: 10/10.

IT IS SWEEEEEEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Feb 23, 2005
this is the best yugioh game created! I had a tough time with weevil( only because I didnt get the new monsters grandpa unlocked at the entrance hall ) I also had a tough time with mai, the stage 3 and king coliseum pegasus, shadi, YAMI marik, YAMI bakura and king coliseum ishizu. I won the game! dad won too!he had a symbol of DARK and got summond skull, kuriboh, needle ball, feral imp and skelengel a level 9!!!!!!!!!????????in king coliseum, he got to bring out dark lord exodia!!!!!!!!???? it has 450 pp and once, he attacked senjingen who was a 440, exodia obliterated him in 1 attack! since he is a creature of DARK, I attacked blue eyes( light ) it did 169 points of damage to him! when you win, you get red eyes, fortress whale and ogrus leever for you to crush opponets in either free battle mode or versus mode.

A great game for fans and non-fans of Yu-Gi-Oh!Nov 29, 2005
This game is a great game for everyone, I'd say about age 6-12. My cousin is 4 and he can't understand it that well so younger kids might not have as much fun. I will be honest with you. I don't really like Yu-Gi-Oh! that much. Although this is one of the most fun games I've ever played. I love the fact that they used capsules and statues instead of cards. Plus they used 3-D boards so you feel like you are playing a Yu-Gi-Oh! type chess or some other board game. Over all I give it 2 thumbs and a foot up.
