Video Game Reviews of Disgaea DS
Customer Review: The First Disgaea Ported to the DS
Summary: 4 Stars
This game is, in essence, "Disgaea Hour of Dakrness" From the playstation 2 ported over to the Nintendo DS. While i always loved this game for its unique appeal and anti-hero cast, anyone who is looking to get the same experience as the original should be warned so they won't be dissapointed:
The graphics have been reduced from their original quality to something that the DS--with it's relatively low capabilities--can render. It can even skip a few frames of display (aka. lag) in heavily crowded Item World Maps.
Second, the game's music, which was incredibly brilliant in the original has not been directly ported, it's bitrate is now something like a hybrid between the venerable midi and a normal mp3. So it sounds dull by comparison.
Thankfully a few features have been added to the game to make it more interesting, like new secret characters, levels and Etna mode (where you play through Etna's campaign.)
Overall the experience is very close to the original, even though I miss the great music a quite a bit. If you keep the above in mind your play through should be a good one.
