Review for Dark Cloud

I was told that this game was the best Role Playing Game for the PS2 when I was at the local video game store in the mall. The employee was even kind enough to show me a video clip of the game, right in the store.

From what I saw and from what he told me, it looked like a good game. (especially for compared to every other RPG PS2 has to offer) So of course I bought the game, but little did I know the entire game was in dungeons!

The story line was horrid! Incase you didn't already know, a town is exploded by a big purple genie, but somehow a little fairy king manages to save all the peoples' houses in little orbs and scatter them across the world! (isn't that something?) So through-out the whole game you get to walk in dungeons, collecting stupid little orbs called atla.

In my own personal opinion this game was terrible. Don't get me wrong, I can credit the designers for a couple things; the attacking system makes the game more interesting (your weapons eventually break if you dont fix them), I like the characters (except the tubby boy with the hammer), and... well... thats about all they can get a pat on the back for.

The graphics are terrible and the story line is just pathetic. Afterall, what did we pay $300 for? Overall, the game is a waste of money and time, if you're thinking about buying it, I personally wouldn't.
