Review of Summon Nights: Twin Age

SNTA_logo

This game is set in a world where everything is caused by Spirits, the official language is cliché and all names seems to be just a bunch of scrambled letters thrown together. Everyone also dress worse than in Final Fantasy X, and no one seems to have put any care into either the character design or the voice acting.

Smash64 Characters: Pikachu

Pikachu, all our most hated annoying yellow mouse from Pokémon… Who doesn’t know him?
Pikachu goes from being useless junk of a Pokémon to being one of the most overpowered characters in SSB64!

What I’m reviewing here isn’t actually Hour of Darkness, but rather the DS port Disgaea DS. There is also a PSP port with the lame name Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness. I couldn’t get my hands on the PlayStation 2 original.

The best description i can come up with to describe this masterpiece is: Take the Final Fantasy Tactics series, make [...]
