DRAGON QUEST IX
Yes, I know that may seem unfair to have two Dragon Quest in the same list, but read and you will see that (not only) is not my Fanboy ... Dragon Quest IX is a jewel not to miss in your collection if you have a DS.
Well, for starters, forget the other Dragon Quest IX playtime. Yes, even the characters were designed by Akira Toriyama (the Dragon Ball, not how many times I can put this without being annoying), the music was composed by Koichi Sugiyama (which has always done the music for Dragon Quest) and script and the world made by Yuji Hori (which has always written the screenplays for DQ), but their form of keys numbered DQ series is quite original.
This time you are a guardian angel in a small town in the mountains. You are learning the basics on how to protect humans (who in turn will pray and thank your good deeds) with your mentor Aquila. The task of all Celestrians (los angeles) in the world, doing good deeds for the gratitude of human material takes shape, the call to be offered to Benevolessence Ygdrassil at the observatory, the floating city they live Celestrians.
sufientes Offering Benevolessence the tree of life, the task of Celestrians in this world will be over, and may ascend to another plane of existence where one can rest in peace forever ... and after millennia of being together the energy of appreciation of humans, the day is near, but a terrible tragedy at the moment of truth you remove your wings and your immortality, and will make you fall into the sky. Your new mission, find the way back to the observatory, and find out what happened to the Ygdrassil, which will take you on a unparalleled adventure around the world, where they fix many ills, where ladies will be rescued, and terrible battles will be fought ... Typical Dragon Quest.
What separates him from others is its gameplay. The game was made with the idea that your other 3 friends were connected through local wireless connection, each with their avatar, and enter into battles in turn, complementing each other with the skills gained in their individual game (by the system vocations, you can change them whenever you want). For this reason the characters you use in your game are characters created by yourself, so do not have a back story, no special reason to join. They join because. That detracts mucha fuerza a la historia, que en lo personal la considero la mas debil de toda la saga.
Pero sigamos hablando del gameplay. Ademas de la cooperatividad entre tu y tus amigos, el juego semanalmente descargara en tu tarjeta de juego aventuras secundarias para enriquecer la experiencia y alargando el juego durante horas y horas. Tambien tiene una tienda online que se actualiza todos los dias (cada semana con un tema diferente) y en la que compraras items especiales con la moneda del juego. Armaduras especiales? SI! Armas super poderosas?! Tambien!
La conexion con otros jugadores tiene otras ventajas, como la adquisicion de mapas de grutas llenas de enemigos y tesoros especiales, with special bosses at the end of each. The termination of a cave map gives you another and another, and so on, stopping only when you choose so.
For fans of the acquisition of equipment returned alchemy pot, where to mix 2 or 3 items you can create a more powerful or more beneficial effects when battles. The possible results are more than 300 and you will enjoy searching for recipes and items needed for forging equipments.
To make matters worse, the presentation is outstanding. This shows the great power of our little DS. Beautiful 3D graphics, both of the main characters as enemies and are always very well animated. Speaking of animations, high-level skills as Kafrizzle, Giga Slash and Disco Stew is impressive.
Anyway, the game is a typical Dragon Quest until you connect with friends or the internet. The searches (and guest characters from other DQ! Yay!) Will be downloaded to your DS until July this year, so there is still much Dragon Quest to enjoy, and I can say, is the best RPG's that have appeared in the last 6 years, not only in DS ... course, the best I will save for a few more days. Ah ... yes, and you can dress your little monkeys as you want (with the hundreds of items available!) and see the changes on your screen and your friends! that another reason you want!
ELITE BEAT AGENTS
In five games in which the music has blossomed ... not, snot (that is, many ... I guess! Kallens!), Nintendo of Japan decided to bring a strange game but for DS (consensual platform for this type of game) called Elite Beat Agents. Not your typical game music as the desperate and uncomfortable Guitar Hero On Tour (my dedooooos!), But boy, is not your typical game either in its concept. 
are a subject of a strange organization called EBA, who travel the world helping to encourage people with problems in normal life (from babysitters they can not do its work until a little girl who misses her father died on Christmas) dancing to the rhythm of songs licensed for the game specifically. And good songs! "Walkie Talkie Man" Steriogram (one of my favorites!), "Sk8er Boy" Avril Lavigne, "Material Girl" Madonna, "September" by Earth, Wind and Fire, "Survivor" by Destiny's Child and the final boss to the tune of "Jumpin 'Jack Flash" by the Rolling Stones.
Sure, they're all remixes or arranged for the frantic pace of the game, but the arrangements are very good. Times while in my gym trainer put some songs from the game in my classes to encourage my girls. That time ...
Well, the game basically is "touch and scratch the screen in rhythm to the beat of the music." If it sounds sappy, but the challenge is very high (several types of constraints) and if I say, entertaining to the extreme. The actions vary from song to song, but basically what you do to end the game. You get combos by drawing on the screen correctly, and obviously the trick is to survive the song (many errors and out) and get your best score.
The story is perhaps the second strongest point, on par with the music. You see, on the bottom screen is where striped while others see your dancers to do the job as well as you do yours. It is a distraction, yes, but not a very strong. While in the above screen, depending on how well you go, animations unfold characters that are trying to help with your music. That is where you manage to connect with the characters so very special.
As I said, there are simple stories, sometimes nonsensical, and others that are very touching. The facts leading to the last boss and in particular the "last battle" are great fun, and are at the level of things like "Independence Day" and an even more exaggerated at Dragon Ball. Yes, the humor is the order of the day, but carries so well that adds a epic the "script" ... and you know what? the net made me want to play again ... if it is not a Guitar Hero (which was originally at the beginning, right now, meh) but this game managed to open a little hole in the shape of DS in my heart.
