This game is a Fantasy harvest moon game meaning you can farm for crops and kill monsters at the same time. Although the combat is not the best it helps make the game what it is. For example when I played harvest moon DS for the first time I thought it was boring of course I was younger then but that does not matter when I first played this game I thought that the combat helped it become less tedious and more about managing your time so that you can level up faster, get a Girl friend, and defeat the bosses and at the same time farming to get better crops and more money to full all of the things you do.
So here is how it started a Gold sheep monster fell from the sky and a girl which you will find out is called Shara finds it and helps him because she is nice (I don't trust her) to cute sheep monsters because they are cute. The next day in the bed where the sheep monster was there is now a boy that looks like the sheep monster but is a human. So he sneaks out and finds her near a huge tree. Shara gives you a Tree house (I am not joking) to live in because nobody lived in it for a long time and it has a large field under it to farm. Then a quiet girl comes to help Shara which after that you call yourself Micha after completely destroying the forth wall. Monsters attack you and the Quiet Girl will run to Get The blacksmith's help and it leaves you to kill the orks with your hoe even though she has a Higher level than you and a short sword but it pays off because the third character you meet The dwarf Gaius that looks more like a elf than a dwarf gives you a weapon to use to fight of the monsters and after that you meet all of the crazy people in town.
So almost of the characters are funny from Sofia and Sherman talking in opposites just the right amount so that it will be confusing without the color coded not like this and the blacksmith Gaius Is the most focused blacksmith and Without Raven the Quiet Girl at the beginning he will work for a whole week without rest and he makes legendary weapons that cost your whole First year of income to buy 3 weapons and some times more than that. There are only 2 (or 3 if you play the Right way I did) people that are not crazy in one way and one of them is the main character Micha.
The combat in this game is simple. At first you mash the A button and dodge attacks by dashing but when you get good at a weapon you hit harder and get more attack options like the dash and charge attack and after that you can get and doing the simplest thing can help you like being well fed and being well rested. You can get magic and combat abilities in the game by buying them and some of them are amazing my favorite one is called Axle disaster (Micha calls it rotating strike) and million strike the first is not a spin attack but a rotating attack that thrusts you forwards as a fast rate dealing a lot of damage and the other one looks the best on the spear and it looks like you are thrusting it once but dealing damage at the extended range rapidly (I mean a lot of damage). One more thing about the combat that the max level that you can get is 10,000 and the max stat count is 65,535... that is a lot.
Now on to the farming. You start with little money and a lot of weeds rocks, and dead trees. The going is rough but with a little work the plot of land under your huge tree you can plant some pink Turnips in the ground and later find out that you need to rotate your crops and how annoying it is but if you work hard enough you will prosper and have a lot of money.
Game play: 8/10
This game is perfect for you if you like farming in
harvest moon but think it is boring sometimes.
Multiplayer: ?/10
The locale multiplayer looks fun but I never played
it because I am the only one that has the game in my area. D:
graphics: 6/10
It is a DS game so... it is not the best
Story 7 or 6/10
Unlike rune factory 2 this does not have much of a
story although when it has story it is very good but
only expect story in the first year. If you want the
best story do Ravens requests.
Music: 8/10
The music is amazing here is some examples. music 1 Music 2 Music 3.
Okay the last one came from Rune Factory 2 but I think it proves my point
Total: 8/10
It is one of the best games on the DS and if you can handle
harvest moons farming you can handle this and if you can't
then get used to it because you need it or get Rune Factory:
Tides of destiny.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
This game is the first video game that I saw and played. This game is the game that started it all for me. When first I played this game I was roaming around the world of hyrule. I thought how do I play it, what do I do, how did my Dad do it, and why does the scary music play at the big monsters (I was 5) I ran from everything that harmed me. Then after that when I started playing it correctly I went through the game without the internet (except the water temple that was hard) and after I beat it It was the 2 game I beat the other was super Mario Galaxy.
So now Let me tell you about the game. You start out in a village full of Kokiri or people that look like kids but are in fact ageless but you the swiss army knife link with a huge bag of holding are not a Kokiri but a Hylian that was found in the woods being hold by his dead mother so the Kokiries helped him and his adventure begins when a z-targeting Fairy Navi came to link saying to go to the Great deku tree but an annoying Kokiri Mido is blocking the way because it is to dangerous because you don't have a sword and shield but when link gets them he moves out of the way but it turns out that he is right When you get attacked by deku buds or weeds that are dangerous only when you move to them or give in to their power and have them eat you because you are too weak to defeat them (in that case you are a wimp at every thing in life) so the tree said thing that you want to know and you go inside to destroy the thing in the poor tree but it died after that :(.
So as I said Link can carry a lot of stuff and is a human swiss army knife and he defeats all of his foes by exploiting there weakness and he do not need that annoying fairy to help him Find the foes weakness do you have a huge fire dragon in your volcanic mountain? No problem Link can defeat it. Have a giant pig monster taking over all of your kingdom? Call link at www.link_help_me.com. so this game has a lot of puzzles that you solve to go farther in the game. Almost all of them are fun (except the whole water temple (not including dark link)). So I told you about the game now let me tell you the numbers.
game play: 8/10
The game play is good and it is the first 3D Zelda game.
story: 7/10
The story is different that the other Zelda games
and like the first Zelda games Link never said anything.
Music:8/10
The music got remixed a lot.
controls:9/10
The game has good controls.
characters:6/10
They where just there to be there unlike Zelda in the LoZ SS.
total: 9/10
This may be to high for what I scored the
other things but this game is what started it
all for me and it is a good game.

mini guide: Super Smash Bros Brawl: how to be good at SSBB
This is a mini guide about how to be good at ssbb so lets start. Before you can do anything you need to know the controls for the controller you are using and change it if you need to. Then play the game beat level 3 computers until you know the character you want to play now you can start learning these things.
First dodge, dodge, and dodge it may not seem like the most important thing. But it is people. In this game follow this rule: dodge the attack and you counter attack. There is a couple of times that me and my buddy played this game and we stood still for 5 seconds until one of us tried to get the jump on the other and don't forget to use the shield if you need it.
Second know how to recover from a fall and edge guard I should have put this first but I didn't so if you do get hit a lot (and you will sometimes) you will fall of the map and then you lose a life. If you fall and you don't know how to recover from it you will die so in order to recover on a normal character you need to jump 2 times and use the up special. Some characters can use the side special like Ike (I wanted to say that) so if you see a move that can be used for recovery use it. It will confuse the opponent.
Now edge guarding is a lot harder. You need to make it so that your opponent can't recover. So here is how you do it. One way is to go on the ledge and stay there. If the opponent doesn't make it to the ledge he dies. If he can make it over it then you are open. Another way is that you can use pit's shield and when the enemy uses their up or side special they will be deflected. Then it will be to late. The other harder thing is to go to the enemy that is in the air and hit them so that they fall to their deaths. There are 2 ways to do that. One is to just hit them the other is a meteor smash. Meteor smash is when you hit them in the way so they fall straight down.

The Legend of Zelda: the Wind Waker
This game is a LoZ game and has the biggest world in a Loz game. But most of it is water :( And the game can be a little easy but it is still fun. And that is all it matters. (warning: the sailing may be boring so sing a song about being a sailor on a open sea or something. The song that plays can really help and because of it I liked the sailing in this game). The game has 49 islands (I think) and some are lame and others have cool things in it like 1/4 of a full heart for your life thingy and one has a thing that makes your magic bar 2 times bigger (very helpful for the last boss). So here is the story you are a Little 10 year old boy link named after the legendary hero that saved a magical kingdom named hyrule. But when the beast that was sealed was released the hero never came. So after saving a pirate girl named Tetra Link's sister was kidnapped by a giant bird and Link left with Tetra to save her.
Now more about the game play. You are a ten year old kid okay you have a shield but I never used it so I don't know how effective it is. There is a move called parry (more like dodge and counter attack)
When you press the A button at the time the thing attacks you dodge their attack and counter attack their back. In fact that move is required to beat the game and is better than blocking. Link can do that because he is small and agile and his enemies are 2 times bigger than him or larger. Don't forget Zelda has a good personality in this game (If you don't know Zelda gets kidnapped and acts like a spoiled kid (in most of the games she is)). So lets get to the numbers.
game play:8/10
This is the first game that link used a boat.
mutiplayer:7/10
One person can be tingle and the other can be
link tingle cant affect the world normally but he must
use the money in this game to do things like make link levitate
for 3 seconds and throw bombs from the sky.
graphics:9/10
The cel-shading that the game uses make the game look
different people who make video games
now want to make the game look as realistic as they
can And I think this is one of the best looking games of
all the gamecube games (this is my opinion so you might think differently).
story:8/10
The story is really cool, that is all I can say.
replay:5/10
If you restart you get a cool camera you (not link) can understand hyrulian and you don't get the hero's cloths.
total:8/10
This game may have been turned down by a lot of LoZ fans but if they had played the game they would have loved it so if you are a person that don't like unrealistic graphics here this with computers today you can perfect any art or Graphics in a video game or any thing.
(now it is time to find a game that I don't like)

team fortress 2
Team Fortress 2 is a game that you shoot at the other team. But this is not a cod ripoff. In fact as the game said it is a game involving team work. The engineer makes a mini base so that the team that his is on can restock. He also makes powerful defenses that can destroy almost everyone that tries to destroy it or go past it. The spy can cloak and destroy all engi buildings and can back stab, instantly killing someone. The heavy has a mini gun that can compare to any mounted gun, other than the engineers sentry gun at the third level. He is really slow and has a lot of health. The scout has a scatter gun an can run really fast. But has the lowest health. The medic can heal with his medigun and can also over heal giving the person 100 extra hp. He can give himself another person invincibility for a short amount of time with the heavy. They can be really powerful and the only way to stop them is to kill the medic. The best one for the job is a sniper. Although the sniper is considered the worst class, he can help change the battle. He can use the sydney sleeper so that the enemy he hits with it will have mini crits done to him every shot for 8 seconds. Everyone in the game can bring down a heavy really fast with it's affect on him. This game has 9 classes so you never get bored of it.
total: 9/10
This game has funny weapons like the Holy Mackerel and the lollichop (I have the lollichop) and the best thing about this game is that it is free yes 100% free you only need internet and a Okay computer to play it. Although you can buy weapons for real money it is a small amount like $1 per weapon. But it is a better deal to buy Mann co. supply crate key as the things you get are strange or if you are lucky an unusual hat that is worth a lot. Some people will pay you a lot of in game money or real money to have you trade your hat to them.
So with a lot of maps and classes and different ways to play them this game will not get boring for a long time. So here are the numbers
replay ability: 10/10
The game is a online first person shooter and has trading so it never ends.
multiplayer: 10/10
This game is all Multiplayer.
story:7/10
This thing has a story you can find it here.
game play:9/10
I have played cod before and I think it is okay but this game you need teamwork and if you don't have a good team you will lose unlike cod an it has no kill/death thingy.
characters:8/10
All of the classes have a personality.
total: 9/10
This is a good game and it is free to play go and get it.

Tale of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World
This is the Sequel to Tale of Symphonia and I can't do a review about it without telling things about the other game so
So here is how it started. In Palmacosta the town was in fire and a war between Lloyd under the command of the church of Martel (very strange) and the Vanguard of Sylvarant. They killed many people and during the fight the Vanguard where chasing a girl with a red crystal ball and a boy in lab clothes saves her. Then, he found his parents almost dead and was told by them to go to his aunt and uncle in a diffident town not to far called Luin. As you may guess Lloyd killed his parents (or did he not) and the town calls Lloyd, Lloyd the great or Lord Lloyd because he helped restored the town and donated the most to restore it and he is the one of the people that saved the worlds from destruction. Well the boy as we found out is Emil Castagnier and he is a wimpy boy. So that is how it started so let me tell you about the game play so it has the Flex Range Element Enchanted Linear Motion Battle System (or FREE LMBS and the game is not free) so it is different than Tos (Tale of Symphonia) one Emil has cool aerial combat because of it at the max you can hit up to 10-13 times in the air if you (if you have the skills) in the at the start he can only hit 3 times per combo. Elements also affect the battle if the battle field has a dark element Emil is stronger and heals slowly and dark magic is also stronger. You can capture monsters and use them in battle. Some have 3 times more hp than you. So monsters are good for holding back the things you are fighting. Then your spell casters can cast spells. They have very powerful affects an can do a lot of damage. Judgment, although not a spell but a angelic skill, can send bolts of light and can hit every target. (I said can it can miss every target also). The most important people are the healers. Although monsters can heal you and most are as good at it. So here are the 2 main healers Raine and Marta. Marta will be on your team almost all of the time. Her healing spells heal one person or thing at a time. She can deal damage using light spells and is good melee attacks. Raine is only on the team some times. She can heal all of the party and do it really well. In the beginning of the game you can have someone cast a water spell and when you do a attack called the Unison attack with Raine you heal all of the party to full health. With her you can tank the fights that you have when she is in the party (that is why Emil can't use water attacks until the very end of the game.
So lets get to the numbers.
Story: 8/10
The story is good and Kratos is the game's narrator and don't forget the game has 3 different endings. One is sad another is really sad and another one is perfect (and I mean really perfect(and in Japan the really bad ending is super bad )).
game play: 8/10
The game play is different that Tos but the old tactics with Lloyd will be the same (well almost).
characters: 8/10
All of the old characters are in the game (with different voice actors :( ) except Kratos (If you played Tos you know what happened to him) and the new ones are great like the Sadistic girl Alice and her partner (aka voluntarily slave) Decus and of course the main characters Emil and Marta (wait this game story no it can't be...).
Music: 7/10
It is the remixed version of the Tos sound track.
controls: 7/10
The controls are good.
reply ability: 6/10
You can continue a game + and play on the hardest mode.
total: 7/10
It is a good game but not as good as Tos.

The Legend of Zelda
This game is the first of the Legend of Zelda games and one of the hardest. Unlike most games for the NES this one can save its data so you don't need to speed run to beat the game. I was not born when the game came out. The only first thought about this game is that my Mom got the white sword and the blue ring before defeating the first boss and got the magic sword at the 3 dungeon. And that I died so many times that I can't count anymore so here is the story.

So the left handed hero " link " went to save Zelda from " Gannon " with his wooden sword at his hand.
The gameplay is great and I thing that the legend of Zelda is the best game for the NES. So lets get to the numbers.
controls 9/10
They work perfectly with the game.
gameplay: 8/10
This is the first open world video game (I think) so you can travel the world and find a lot of things .
story: 6/10
I can understand why this did not have a lot of story to it so .
replay ability:8/10
You can do it diffidently almost every time .
graphics: 8/10
The Graphics are good I like 8 bit graphics.
total:7.5:10
This is a good game but I have never played
it when it came out so I never got to play the older
games and compare it to them so here is a person that
has played the game before my time.
Older person:
there was no other game like it in its time
