INCREADABLE! There really isn't anything more to say, I mean the first time I saw this game I was blown away by how detailed and animated it was! The graphic are amazing and the game-play is just as good as Forbidden Memories. After all Duelist of Roses is the sequal to Forbidden Memories. Travel through the entire duel monsters world, while battling opponents and winning cards. You as Yami Yugi are once again called to save your kingdom from the evil mage, Seto. Explore many places and theres even a new feature, if you press buttones in certain places you can find secret cards. This is a exquisite game and it is very well made. It is worth buying and i highly recommend that all Yu-Gi-Oh! lovers should get it!

I have actually played a demo version while at E3 and I enjoyed it thoroughly. They only had enough to play 3 cards in 1 duel but from the response of the game, the graphics and the story I just thought it was amazing.
Its up to you to buy it when it is released but I know I will.
Ive been waiting for them to finish and release it for a nice long while.
Im about 20 and love the whole concept but hey thats just me.
If you like the cartoon and the other games at all then you should get a kick out of it.

After such great games as Forbidden Memories and Eternal Duelist Soul, you would think that a Yu-gi-oh game for a next generation sytem would be amazing. Well if you want to judge it by it's graphics, then Ok it is decent, but if you want to judge it on gameplay it might be one of the worst games I have ever played. I am a huge yu-gi-oh fan, I have all the US released games and ove 15 real card decks, and on top of that I am 25, say what you will about my age but I am not ashamed. This game is NOTHING like the real card game, the show, or any of the other games. You have to move your cards around the board like checkers and be right next to your opponents monster to attack it. Another thing is this leader thing, When you start the game you pick a deck, for each deck there is a leader, for example mine is Luminous Soldier. You use him to move around the board and summon you cards, if you opponent attacks your leader, regardless of your leaders attack or defense, it gets deducted directly from your life points. Another downfall is it is hard, I mean really really hard. I am all for a challenge but this goes beyond that, it is difficult to win, even against your 1st opponent, it also pretty hard to grasp how the game plays. It is far to difficult for kids. I would say one of my biggest problems with this game is that the codes on your real cards are 100% useless on this game, they are not compatible, not a single one. So all the hard work of getting a good deck with great cards don't matter on the game. The only really good thing about this game is that you can choose which side you want to play the game as in the beginning. White rose side which is Seto Kaiba or the Red rose side which is Yami Yugi. You play different ememies and you follow different story line depending on who's side you pick.
I had pre-ordered this game a good 2 months before it came out, anxious to play another great yu-gi-oh game instead I got a huge [expensive piece of junk]. Why doesn't Konami make a yu-gi-oh game that follows either the real card game completly or the show completly or at least a mixture of the two, I know the rules aren't consistant on the show and keep changing, but at least try. The other Yugi video games had some big flaws in that they too didn't consistantly follow either the show or the card game but they at least came close enough to make them enjoyable. Why won't they give us what we the true fans want. If you are a true fan of the card game, you probably wont like this game, yes it can be fun to watch your favorite monsters battle it out, but get Forbidden Memories for that.

I am a father of two kids and didn't realy understand the whole "Yu-GI-Oh" thing. I played the game with my kids and found it to be entertaining. I got to spend some time with my kids doing something that they love and learned a little more about them. I took the time to get to know what they like. I love the game now that I understand what is going on. I have become a Yu-Gi-Oh fan.

If you are looking for an accurate adaptation of the Yu-Gi-Oh card game, this isn't it. You'll have to look to the Game Boy Advance Yu-Gi-Oh games for that. However, once I got past the "what-the-heck" factor, I found this game quite engrossing and enjoyable.

The game bears only a passing resemblance to the card game. It has many of the same cards, and some (but not all) of them have the same attributes and powers. The game play, however, is totally different. Your cards have to move around the playing field, like in chess (or Dungeon Dice Monsters), and almost all of the cards can be used in fusions to make more powerful cards.

This is the real trick to the game, and since the fusions aren't very intuitive, the only way to learn them is trial-and-error, by watching what your opponant plays, or by looking them up on the internet ;)

Until you get the hang of the fusions, and accumulate a few more powerful cards, the game can be a bit frustrating. But once you get into it, it is just hard enough to keep you working without driving you nuts.

The graphics are nothing spectacular, and I found I turned of the 3-d battle scenes pretty quickly, because they got boring.

The game Yugioh The Duelists of The Roses comes with three Ultra Rare cards which are Alpha,Beta,and Gamma the magnet warrior.All of this cards are goin to be in handi in the future
because you need all of this cards to summon Valkyrion the magnet warrior which you need to offer Alpha,Beta,and Gamma in order to summon it.And yes it is a great game.
Alpha=ATK/1400 DEF/1700 4 stars
Beta=ATK/1700 DEF/1600 4 stars
Gamma=ATK/1500 DEF/1800 4 stars

I don't know much about the world of Yu-gi-oh other than my 7 yr-old collects the cards. So I bought this game for him for his birthday. This game is very hard for a kid. I've never played the card game myself, so I took the in-game tutorials and then started battling. It took me six games to beat the first opponent. Strategy is fun, now that I've learned the interface I will work with my son to help him figure it out. Overall I think it's a very good strategy game and watching all the 750+ monsters in 3d is cool. Anyway, don't buy this for a youngster unless you're willing to help them out a lot with learning the controls and strategy. Mike age 26.

I know that everyone has a different view on this game and i can understand that but it really isnt as bad as people are saying. Ok i admit that the beginning intro is really long but it is also helpful if you are a slow learner. It is cool to pick which side you want to be on, either yugi or kaiba. The duels are not difficult to understand and once you get them down you can work on stragety. The game features duelists from the popular tv show and it is cool to see they use the same strageties. Like the girl with the harpies lady. She has all of the power ups and traps like in the show. The graphics in the game are wonderful. The conversations are in 2-D but the duels are in 3-D and look awsome. They are like Pokemon Stadium. People dont like to say good things about the game because they dont like the difficulty but if you can think out your actions you will succeed. I enjoyed this game very much. It takes a while to beat so expect your money's worth. Once you learn to play it will be one of your favorite games. It is like chess but a lot cooler. Worth the money. Peace Out!

ok heres the scoop.theres a very LOOOOONG beginning(i mean long)like 1 HOUR!but its sorta worth it.its a whole new different battle technique and u need to developed strategies.i gave it a four because its hard!well,not just because of that but u cant control a CUSTOM DUEL(u cant customize a custom duel....?don't ask me ask konami)well im gonna sum it up.the music is ok,the graphics are ok,its fun and i highly recommened u rent it first!so u get an idea of the game.

of course i didnt rent it and i was thinking it would be normal dueling but with my luck it wasnt.So,rent it first and if u like it buy it,its a must have if your a Yu-Gi-Oh! fan.

I find this game addictive. As my son puts it, it's like chess for those times when you don't want your brain to cramp. It is essentially a board game, with features from chess, stratego, and checkers. But, because it is overlaid with a fascinating, if at first arcane, card game--which includes classes of cards with various powers that can be enhanced or fused with other cards--it presents for a wide range of interesting challenges. While it is hard at first, once you get the swing of it, it's ability to keep you entertained is seemingly endless. By keeping your deck value low (each card is assigned a fixed number of points, and for computerized opponents your total deck points cannot exceed theirs), you can create as much of a challenge as you can handle, pitting your ability to creatively position and "summon" game pieces (the cards) to overcome seemingly impossible odds. For that reason alone, the replay value is considerable.

If you like chess, stratego, and other thinking board games, give this a whirl. There is much to learn and much pleasure to be had.
