Well this might just have to settle for the best DS game ever made. So great from start to finish and the cases just get better. The 5th case is epic and use's more of the DS's touch screen. All in all this game kicks ass. I do have the second one to play and I am now going to drop the first play reviews and go straight into a full review. If anyone actually reads these.10/10

From the makers of Final Fantasy and it did not disappoint, Took me 60 Hours to do most of everything, I still have outstanding side quests to do and one last hidden boss who happens to be a tough cookie. Levelling up towards the end is easy to do and most of the hidden bosses are easy to take down then you get to the backyard which proves to be a challenge and a half. I will kill that last boss if it's the last thing I do.
The story is fantastic from start to finish and can rival most Final Fantasy games but I just get the impression that Final Fantasy XIII will be so much better or maybe I just have high hopes of the game. Anyhow LO plays like Final Fantasy of old with Random battles and even the way you equip items. Levelling up and learning abilities is just like FF9 in the way you have to link Accessories to your immortals for them to learn new magic and skills. Also Immortals will learn more things off of your 4 mortal characters once they have levelled up enough to learn the spell or skill themselves mind.
Boss battles through out the game are mixed; some are easy while others prove to be a challenge, especially on Disk 4. Sometimes you are also plonked onto the world map without any idea where to go next. That is mainly my only bad points of the game, everything else runs smoothly and for those who want 1,000/1,000 achievement points will have their work cut out for them.

As I said below that this game does not feel like anything special however after playing more of the game the levels to get better and slightly more of a challenge unlike the easy easy first levels. Like Mario 64 there is a major problem with camera angles as you do not have two analogue sticks to change your view and have to keep pressing C or hope the camera stays where you want it too. Some places and wall jumps can be tricky as you can't change the camera while focusing with what is going on, on screen.
All in all Mario Galaxy is a fresh change but it still lacks something I can't put my feeling on and Mario has become even more annoying whenever he opens his mouth.
8/10
