4.0 out of 5 stars Culdcept Saga is totally addictive fun, February 6, 2008

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Culdcept Saga (Video Game)

I got a copy of Culdcept and can not put it down. The game is a mixture of board games and trading card games. I never really liked trading card games as a kid, but for some reason the concept really grows on me here. I have played about 4 hours so far, including some multiplayer. The game, simply put, rocks. It combines all the luck of rolling a die with the strategy of building a deck of cards. I am totally hooked. I hope the graphics would be better since its a 360 game, but for my $40, the game is worth every penny.

This review is from: Culdcept Saga (Video Game)

After having played the PS2 version, I was extremely excited when I found out that they were going to make one for the 360. It's basically the same game with some added features, and that's EXACTLY what I would have wanted.

Some people may find it slow-paced. Think of this as a board/card game, not a video game.
Some people may find the voiceovers/plot horrible. This is not a game you play for the story, but for the pure gameplay alone.
Some people may find the graphics subpar. This is not a game you play for the shininess.

If you can get past that stuff, you have a serious gem on your hands with Culdcept Saga.

When i was a kid i was really into collecting Pokemon cards. Then yu-gi-oh came around and i was collecting/creating decks with that. I am now 21, and when i found out about this game i knew i had to pick it up, and i am not disappointed at all. The online community is amazing. You don't get your singing kids, loud abrasive screaming idiots of cod4/halo 3. There is an unlimited amount of depth in this game. There are endless amounts of decks you can make from over 500 cards to collect. This is must buy for strategy fans, and collectors alike.
