I have a DS too
With games of course:
-Battles of Prince of Persia (meh... It's fun... 6.5/10)
-42 Game Classics (<---- REALLY GOOD... It are card games, board games, etc. in a game cassette, which you can play with buddies who don't even have the game cartridge... It's nothing revolutionary or overly impressive or something... It's just great fun... It's pure fun in a 2 cm x 2 cm plastic square... 8/10)
-Hotel Dusk: Room 215 (<--- REALLY GOOD!!!! This is close to being a master piece...
It's some kind of mystery novel-ish, film noir-esque game, with a great storyline, GREAT CHARACTERS (who are CHARACTERS, not just plot-advancers or something...) and GREAT DIALOGUE... It's like talking to real people...
You even have to hold the DS like a book (sideways... so that the top screen is the right screen and the lower screen is on the left) (I'm left handed, by the way... The right-handed option probably swaps the screens the other way around)...
You ONLY use the stylo to control stuff, and you even have to use the DS itself to solve puzzles (For example: one moment in the game, you have to turn over a box on the right/top screen... And how do you do it? You close the DS, and open it again, and the box with puzzle pieces has turned upside down from the right/top screen, onto the left/lower screen, so you can read what's on the backside of the puzzle pieces)...
The graphics themselves are really cool, the environments are in full colour, but the characters are black/white, with the occassional slight hair coloration or a red glow around the character to indicate uncomfortableness...
It's an almost novel-like mystery detective story, with a well thought-out plot, extremely lifelike characters and dialogues, and refreshing graphics...
Score: 11/10)
Really guys:
BUY HOTEL DUSK!!!! IT'S ONE OF THE BEST GAMES YOU'LL EVER PLAY!!!
You won't be disappointed... Unless action, guns and mindless slaughtering is all you care about...
