    This game was pretty bad but its kind of addicting. On the other hand the show is almost the opposite: I'm addicted to not watcing it.

    Excellent game to play! Very addictive...think it should have a little more surprises and action, and tougher opponents. Game play can be faster with the help of pressing down the 'B' button. I figured that out awhile ago; it helps a bunch. I also thought that the beginning of the game could have been more exciting, but overall, a pretty good game! : )

    Well i give this game 9. This is the greatest yugioh game i have played so far but unlike the other ones it takes forever for 1 turn. each duel takes close to half and hour thats way to long. people want to make their move and be done. this game has super images. i thought they would never show the real card it self but boom there it is.

    Enjoyable game but to make it challenging they allow it to 'cheat' instead of giving it good AI. In the later duels the opponent obviously knows when it cannot attack a face down card. Knowing the game has to cheat is a little disapopinting.

    This game is great! It beat dark duel stories and forbidden memories, the only thing that is annoying is that sometimes the battles are boring and the thing always asks you "do you wish to play a quick play magic or a trap card?'' that can be annoying sometimes. It's good overall.

    This game is okay if you are a yu-gi-oh fan but it is kinda hard to beat rare hunter, arkana,umbra and lumbris, strings, and marik and it is always hard to get good cards and there are to many packs to pick from and they allow only 60 magic trap and monster cards in your deck which is hard to decide what cards to put in your deck when you have over 800 cards like me.

    It does give you the closest thing you can get to playing the card game without sucking your bank account dry, and the card game really doesn't need much added to it in order to be fun.
  3. 80
    I was amazed just how quickly I caught on to the rules and effects of the cards in the deck. While I would have been more comfortable with a tutorial option, the game's so simple to understand it almost doesn't need one. Almost.
