Now, I am going to cause a small problem right now... I really have a high disrespect for todays version of Yu-Gi-Oh. Last thing I recall is that now we have monsters that can be pretty much immune to everything unless you play your cards right, back in the day... everyone had a chance to win, the only way you knew you would lose is if you had nothing to defend yourself with. Nowadays, we have so many cards with so many BS effects... that even the older cards are no longer worth having anymore, everyone wants to be with the XYZ and all those other annoying attribute type of cards.

No offense to anyone who likes todays modern cards, but seriously... it's become so much of a hassle, that if you don't have the right cards that perfectly go against the other guy... you will lose without even a chance of hope in your game. I... being the person that I am, still have all my ORIGINAL Yu-Gi-Oh cards, back when it was Yugi, Kaiba, Joey, Tristan, and all the others. For todays version of Yu-Gi-Oh, most of the cards aren't even FLESH & BLOOD, but instead some sort of robot you can put together to make a super robot... wow, aren't you guys original or what. (That's called sarcasm...)

Anyways, before I continue to insult todays really screwed up version of Yu-Gi-Oh, let me brings us back to an older time... back when the cards really had a heart, and back when the challenges were both fun and well... challenging. Now it's not even fun for many of us, and it's not even challenging... and if it is challenging, then it's probably because we're not people who have an obsession with robots like todays generation.


Graphics- 9/10
Now, for being a PS1 game... the graphics on this game (as well as "Duelist of the Roses") are absolutely amazing. They are so well balanced and so uniquely designed, that even when you aren't trying to win, you might spend most of the time admiring the cards or the playing field. Unlike in "Duelist of the Roses", your playing field doesn't get animated or anything... but you can press the SELECT button to see an animation of how your monster attacks. It's really interesting to see how that most of them have basic attacks, but some of them... their attack is so epic, it makes you want to play the guile them while you watch. No seriously, find a monster with a really awesome attack and play the guile theme... doesn't it just go together or what?

Sound- 9/10
Mut like the graphics in this game, the sound is also absolutely thrilling to hear. With the various styles of music, ranging from modern types of music... to ancient types of music (such as Egyptian for the past, or techno for the future)... the music choice is definitely interesting and may cause you to want to turn up the volume a little bit more. Then, adding onto that splice of excellence... you have the unique sounds of the attacking effects, the sounds of two cards LITERALLY fusing together (which looks really cool, and which I spent most of the time trying to see what cards fused with what).

Addictiveness- 9/10
I'm not going to beat around the bush for this, but for me... this game couldn't be any more addicting if they tried (unless they combined it with "Duelist of the Roses", then it would be perfect in my opinion). With so much you can do in the game, so many different choices of cards (about 1000 cards to choose from... I think), and so many different enemies to come across... you honestly won't know what you're up against until you finally go fast to face. I have even encountered that one bug loving character, and even in the past... he does love bug cards, but he has a tendency to use FIENDS and DARKS.

Story- 9/10
To be honest, I don't entirely remember the story... but I do know that you start out as Yugi wearing the Millenium Puzzle, then somehow you get transported back in time as the Pharaoh, and have to fight to reclaim your kingdom. Then after that, I believe you go back to being in the modern time era where you are fighting in Seto Kaiba's Tournament, and it just keeps on jumping you around. Otherwise, since I don't remember the full story, I do know that the story will definitely keep you on your toes and make you more curious about how this all started.

Depth- 9/10
As I have said above, there is so much to do in the game... anything from dueling against a computer, to dueling against a friend (yes you can duel against a friend I think, but you have to be honorable and look away from the screen when it is their turn), and you can even do a campaign or free play. You can spend your entire game going through all the cards and reading about them, watching their animations, and more.

Difficulty- 9/10
This game is actually a little more difficult than "Duelist of the Roses" (for PS2 I think...), this one is a little more limited and there aren't as many options when it comes to card outcomes, there also isn't that many cards as there is in "Duelist of the Roses", but it does provide a very good challenge even in the beginning and an almost impossible challenge once you get through towards the end. As you progress it will become harder and harder, then after you beat the game (or while you are playing the game), you can also do free play, which the level of difficulty changes with which enemy you choose to free play against. Most of the time, I chose to free play against Kaishin or whatever his name was... simply because this game removed the whole "sacrifice" and "tribute summon" ideas. You can summon anything at any level that you want, just as long as you have that card... the only cards that cannot be normal summed are fusion and ritual monsters... everything else can be summoned with ease, no matter what level it is. When playing against the hardest enemy on there (for the Egyptian times), he will generally summon monsters with at least 2500 ATK and 2000 DEF.


It's a game worth trying and I recommend you play it some day, then after you play it... attempt to play "Duelist of the Roses", you will see the major differences between the two.

Nice review! The layout was a little hard to read though. Also you said "I think" a little too much. ou can always google whatever you want to find out.
Lol. I agree there are too many effects in newer cards. I think they are fun though if both players have good cards.
I give this review a 5/5. Keep up the good work!
