Description
Better known to American as Dragon Warrior 8, Dragon Quest VIII brings the long-running RPG series to the PlayStation 2 for the first time. In it, players are able to capture monsters that inhabit the battlefield. These beasts differ from the creatures you'd normally encounter in battles, as they have special names and abilities unique to them. Once a monster has been scouted, it's added to a growing arsenal of creatures that can then be assembled into teams of three for use as support characters in battle. Outside of using these monster teams in combat, players can also use them in Dragon Quest VIII's "Monster Battle Road" tournament grounds. Other new additions to the series include full day and night cycles for towns, first-person conversations, and the ability to look around the 3D environments.

    The story of this game is top notch and the gameplay is perfect. The story starts out with an evil wizard stealing a staff from your palace and places a curse on your palace and you are the only one who survives unharmed. I know that is a vague description but I dont want to ruin too much of the story for you. The story takes off from there as you meet interesting and deep characters fighting in a good battle system and exploring a HUGE world. The battle system works alot like Dragon Warrior 7. You start off in a first person view and then you pick your actions. But the main difference from 7 is that once you pick your action you get to see your character in action making for some beautiful moves. The only real problem I have with this game is that some players may find it too difficult while I never had that problem I know some people who did. If you are looking for an RPG with old school flare with new school graphics then check out Dragon Quest 8.

    DragonQuest VIII is a great RPG for gamers to play. It has great gameplay, Great graphics, Great story line, and better then average fighting technique. This RPG has Humor that at times make you laugh and the storyline will keep you involved from the beginning of the game all the way to the end. This game is worth the prrice you will pay for it. This game has 80+ hrs of gameplay, stunning cut scenes and many other things that make it a must own for the PS2. This is is replayable anytime and it will be a classic for this series in no time.
