A great translation with some nice bells and whistles, but the inconsistent AI and lack of Xbox Live really hamper this title.
The game itself doesn’t offer anything more than what you get from the paper card game. But with Dawn Of Destiny, you don’t have to spend the cash that it would take to acquire the over 1,000 cards available in the game by hitting up your local card shop.
The biggest problem is that Dawn of Destiny restricts your freedom like a galactic despot. [June 2004, p.132]
The entire point of the Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise is to incite adolescent jealousy, gamesmanship and spending, and while fans of the series might find something to appreciate in this title, casual gamers will not. Skip it. [June 2004, p.80]
The 3D graphics give a crisp look to the fighters, but the actual battles are too short to fully enjoy—though it does move the game along briskly.
The lackluster visuals, an unsophisticated setup, and tepid pacing render it more curiosity than keepsake, even for series die-hards.
If there had been Xbox Live support it would have at least given you some live players to compete against, but still would be a boring card-dueling game with too many confusing rules and a bland presentation.
