Better than I thought!
I don't play PSP games so I have no idea what the other yugioh games were like so this review don't apply 2 tag force. However I will compare 2 Duelist of the Rose & Forgotten Memories which are both played on Playstation 2. I felt that Capsule Monster Colisum were too different 2 be compared 2 other Yugioh PS2 games because of its limited monster pieces & single direction storylines. It have been a while since Duelist of the Rose came out so it was exciting 2 see that a new Yugioh game finally comes out 4 PS2. Compare 2 PS1: Forgotten Memories, there are very little wasted monsters when you go 4 a ransom amount of cards as the rules 4 getting points 2 get stars were very frustrated & you often get gluts of weak monsters while builting the numbers of stars 2 buy stronger monsters. Some of the cards have very different functions when you had played Duelist of the Rose 4 a while so it can be confusing at first while playing The Beginning of Destiny. For a examples - The Duelist of the Rose have Rigras Leever as a Immoral Card - immune 2 Crush Virus. Rigras Leever was important 4 me in the game as it cause both me & the other Duelist 2 discard all cards when flipped up - after I made sure there were only worthless cards in my hand. In The Beginning of Destiny Rigras Leever changed functions a big deal. Now the card can't be flipped at the first play & its type is Plant/Effects & only removes 1 card from each player with each player choosing the card 2 discard so the useful of Rigras Leever decline 4 me in this game while other monsters previously worthless 4 me in Duelist of the Rose became more valuable in their uses.
Compare 2 Duelist of The Rose which plays only one on one, you play tag force, which can be both a blessing & a curse. The fun is picking the right teammate (you have 2 duel that person first in story mode - win or lose it doesn't matter the person will appear in free mode) & let the teammate shore up your weakness. The curse is that the teammate may make very stupid mistakes that have you cursing at the tv like 4 some reason the computer teammate loves 2 putting a weak monster that was on defense changed 2 attack mode & see more lp drained away when the opposite team attack that monster.
Star ranking is far very important in The Beginning of Destiny compare 2 Duelist of the Rose. In Duelist of Rose you can auto play Blue Eye White Dragon from the first play since there is no restriction on summoning it. In THe Beginning of Destiny which gets more complex later on - I will just explain the simple point - If you summon a monster on the first play, the card must have up 2 four stars on it - Blue Eye White Dragon can't be summoned in the first play it have more than four stars - instead you have 2 wait 4 two four stsrs or less 2 be played out first on your side of the field - on the third play of the game, the monsters are tributed (meaning they're out of the playing & in the graveyard) 2 summon Blue Eye White Dragon. There are monsters that can be summoned by only one monster tributed & other must require specific conditions 2 be able 2 be summoned.
There are much more 2 explain but I would rather let other people add more reviews.
Otherwise the game, Yu Gi oh GX THe Beginning of Destiny is intresting & kept me busy - already in two weeks of play I have 600 different types of cards & it's not even the weekend of the first week at Duel Academy - use free games often 2 build up dp (or gil, money) 2 buy more cards.
There are a few negative points 2 this game - For some odd reason some cards appear in your hands much more often - I believe that the game don't deal cards at random but are biased toward certain cards. The second & the most frustrated aspect of the game 4 me is you can't change a decision you made like putting the monster in defense mode when you want it in attack mode - it's easy 2 press a button by mistake & this is way before battle mode.

THIS was delayed?!
THIS was delayed?!
Seriously, how in the world was this game delayed? It is literally a remake of Tagforce 1 from the PSP. Talk about lazy. They took out several key elements from Tagforce 1 ( the free cards on the ground 4 starters) & didn't fix ANY of the issues of said game ( WHERE ARE THE FREAKING VOICE OVERS?!) & WORSE, the game has LAG now. HOW can a PSP remake have LAG on a PS2?! If you played Tagforce 1 then there is really NO point in buying this game, since you already beat it on your PSP & Tagforce 2 has a better card pool ( I mean really, they could of ATLEAST fixed that since they remade it but NOOOOOooooo). I take that back. The ONLY reason anyone that has Tagforce 1 would buy this is SOLELY 4 the packaged cards. & they aren't that great. I would rate this game higher, but, considering that I beat it on my PSP about 6 months or so ago AND the PSP is in all forms BETTER than this, I simply can't justify giving it a higher score. If you are new 2 the game, pick up Tagforce 1 or 2. Not only are they better than this right off the bat, but you also have the ability of connecting 2 the internet 2 making it even better. To sum this game up in as few words as possible: It's old when it's new, therefore it sucks.

Best Yu-Gi-Oh! Title 4 PS2 2 date!
this is an excellent game 4 both the novice & expert alike. it has an extensive tutorial that will teach you everything from the menus 2 the dueling system & even the gameflow structure chains & even combos! so this installment will be excellent 4 beginners in this aspect & as 4 veterans of the series well.
***USB CABLE REQUIRED 4 the psp/ps2 unlockable content such as card packs, & new cards***
there is a treat 4 you if you own tag force 2 4 the PSP & that's Unlockable content such as new cards, new card packs, & even a few really special cards you might remember from the past.
another nice inclusion in this installment is MULTIPLAYER! finally 4 2 players although, the book states tag teams of 2 on 2 but as of this writing I have not unlocked everything quite yet.
Now 4 a few gripes,
firstly this game is almost exactly the same game as "yugioh Tag Force 1" with a few exceptions & they are: you have 2 use a save point on the Main Map 2 save so no more PDA saving before a duel. also you will notice the random cards found lying about the island in the tag force installments is sadly missing here where getting cards is quite a bit harder without umd recognition (because it's ps2) & only a password option. trading with friends can be a hassle since you trade 1 card 2 1 card with a friend out of a 5 card selection you each pick so you have 2 do each card singly if you want 2 trade all 5 4 all 5. the story mode seems 2 follow the first seasons of Yu-Gi-Oh GX & has all the characters from jaden yuki & Zane trusedale right on up 2 crowler the shadowriders & quite a few other surprise guests. all in all this game plays well although a tad slower & choppier then tag force 1 or 2 but well done & the cards all work correctly sadly the rulings aren't always up 2 par but a blast 2 play & with friends playing along this will prove 2 be a blast 2 all fans of the series.
on another note: Monster animations during battle instead of more dueldisk animations would have been far better 4 this title.
Fun: alone it's good with a friend it's a blast! 5 Stars!
Gameplay: slower version of Tag force 1 but an excellent & fun game 5 Stars
Sound: jazzy tunes 2 relax 2 while you duel kinda sounds like they have the doors keyboardist. 4 stars.
Overall: while a few minor flaws bring my overall score of this game down it's just overall 2 me it's a blast 2 play especally with its rpg-esque style gameplay & yugioh! Card Playing it's about the best console yu-gi-oh game I have played so far. & it easily beats all the game boy advance titles as well. Fans of the series will think this a Must Buy & they would be right. 4 Stars
