Top 5 DS games no one plays

So, I thought it would be a good time to take a break from comics, and look at some games.

Of all the recent consoles, my favourite by far has to be the DS. Otherwise its the PS2 which i still use more than my ps3. Any console with an SMT game on it really....

Anyway, heres a count down of my top 5 DS games that you really should play, but probably havn't.

Not to borrow from GT or anything:

AT NUMBER 5

Lunar Knights (Konami)

This is a continuation, in a way, of Kojima's Botkai series. Its an action RPG set up very much like the original GB zelda. You have two characters, Lucien and Aaron. One controls darkness and the other light. This is a world of vampires and aliens. While not original, its all good fun and i heartily recommend it.

Number 4:

The World Ends With You (Sq'enix)

By far one of the best games on the platform, and possibly one of the best rpgs which dont have SMT in the title, of the past 5 years. Its an rpg with a twist. You control both bottom and top screens at the same time during battle, as the main character and your partner fight. While the combat mechanic is fresh, its the characters which make this a game above and beyond. Crazy maths dude shouting 'Zetta Slow' or whatever, or the excellent 'must...resist..emo...urges' say it all really.

At NUMBER 3:

Elite Beat Agents

Why havn't you played this? Or Ouendon?....there are no excuses.

Its a music rhythm game, you tap the circles in time in the correct numbered order (or slide, twirl, whatever) so the EBAs can dance to save who ever needs saving.

Is your Dog lost miles from Home? No problem! Dance can save them!

Is you casino being robbed? NO PROBLEM!

Aliens? NOOO PRRROOOBBLEEEEM

music ranges from the Rolling Stones, Hoobastank, Village People, Avril Lavine. All covers but great none the less. Personal favourite? Earth, Wind and Fire's 'September'

Number 2

Super Robot Taisen W

I can understand if you havn't played it. Its all in Japanese. Its pretty easy to play though.

Its a tactics game not unlike Advanced Wars mixed with Final Fantasy Tactics. Just shove in all the Anime Robot shows you can think of and thats it.

Whatever anyone may think, this game wins alone for having Red Astray and GAOGAIGAR in it....with the music and awesome planet killing attacks.

I played this for a whole year...most lvls take about 1/2-1hr and there are 52 of them.

think about it.

In at NUMBER 1

No surprise here i guess

Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor

Okay okay I know. I'm hugely biased towards anything which has either Atlus on it or Shin Megami Tensei...but these games are beyond any other RPG on any platform. Especially story wise.

This game plays like a SRPG, think FFT or Disgaea. Your an 'average' kid with his friends who get stuck in Tokyo during what at first seems to be a blackout. The Army cordon off the area and you try and find a way out. The influence of TWEWY is quite strong, with the game taking place over 7 days and major things happen every day. There is no exploration as such, and time passes in a strange manner but it makes sense within the game. There are loads of other people to recruit to your party, each have their own ending (i think there are 7) which drastically effect the way the game plays, who you fight and what you end up with on your next play through. I went the Naoya route the first time...no contest for me there.

Another fantastic part of the game is the fusion aspect. Think Pokemon but fusing two together...and theyre demons. There are something like 120 demons in the game each with its own strength, weakness and powers. Gotta fuse em all.

So if you havnt played these games, and one pops up in your local HMV or something for £10..go buy it. Now. You wont regret it.
