Product Description:
Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King continues the mega-hit turn-based role-playing strategy of Dragon Quest - the worldwide hit, now available for Americans to enjoy. You're the last survivor of King Torode's army, and the king and his daughter have both been transformed. As his final warrior, you must track down the evil jester who stole his powerful scepter and caused this tragedy. The full-orchestral soundtrack, completely renovated GUI menu system, new battle abilities, and improved animations will take your breath away, while the living, breathing anime world offers a wealth of new places to explore. An epic tale of friendship, bravery, and adventure awaits you on the grassy fields, snow-capped mountains, and restless seas of Dragon Quest VIII.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Beautifully rendered cell-shaded bliss.
This is the first Dragon Quest to make its appearance on the PS2 and quite a debute it is. You control a precocious young scamp named Hero who is in search of a way to reverse the spell that has plagued his world. You will recognize the characters as they were designed by the creator of the Dragon Ballz and are cell-shaded to produce that true anime feel. The game also includes a playable demo of Final Fantasy XII...though I bought mine used and never got it. Anyway, let's take a closer look at why ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great old-school RPG

Mind you, I loved Final Fantasy VII, but I'm getting tired of playin the same story with the same ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King
This is a riviting, fun game. Challenging and hard to put down once you starts. Time just slips by. Thoroughly enjoy it. I wish they would make more of this type of games for the older systems.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - I guess I should read product info instead of just box cover
Nathan A. Webster "Musical anti-snob" has a great critical review, so I won't say anything more on the actual game set-up, especially since I played the game through about, well let's say just the first couple of battles one must go through in the instructional introduction. I changed the game disc at that point, and this now sits up in the stack of my things that I will probably never do anything with ever again, except to put them in a box when I move them to my next home.

I totally ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Very fun game!
