.co.uk Review ------------- The first thing you'll notice when you get Legend of Dragoon, is that it comes on 4 CDs giving you the possibilities for hours of gameplay. As introductions to games go, this is pretty darn good, only one minor problem, make sure you save the game as soon as you have the chance. If you don't you'll be sitting through the (rather long) intro again as there is no way to skip it. Once past the intro, you'll be presented with an RPG of sorts (similar in some fashions to the Baldur's Gate games on the PC). You take the role of the main hero and the storyline unfolds in a relatively linear fashion to begin with, leading you to new places and to meet new people (some of whom will join you in your quest) but once you have the hang of the gameplay, it rapidly becomes more open and you are free to do as you wish. The battle sequences will either be the main-stay of the game or the most infuriating thing you'll ever come across. Taken from the 2D environment into a 3D battle arena with turn-based combat. You (and any companions) have the chance to attack enemies, use magical attacks, defend or retreat. You will gain items and experience points dependant on the outcome of these battles and your warrior(s) become stronger and more skillful as they gain experience. If you like RPGs or if you've never tried one before, give this a -you'll love it!--Andi Flower Manufacturer's Description -------------------------- Take Dart, a brave young hero.
