Has anyone played this? I got it for Christmas, am going to start playing it today. I imagine it'll last me until the end of my winter break. :p

From what I've heard, it's supposed be more of the same, just with better graphics and refined mechanics. Not to mention having nearly every character from the entire series available as DLC, or so I heard.

*goes to play* :D

I need a ps3 .. i wants that game D;

[Suzerain of Sheol]

Well, maybe they'll end up porting it to one of the handhelds. ^_^

Also... 925 MB update before I can play? o_O

[Demonskid]

I hope so.. though Disgaea 3 didn't get put on the psp as far as I know ;o;

I have Disgaea 2 though

[Suzerain of Sheol]

Mm, yeah, the PS3 games might be too much for the PSP to handle.

Also, this game is awesome! :D

I just love the way it rewards any amount of playtime you put into it. You always feel like your guys have improved even after just half an hour of messing around in the item world or something. Makes it rather addicting. :p

jelly ono

who are the main characters x3 dk must know

[Suzerain of Sheol]

So far, I have Valvatorez, a former vampire tyrant who lost his powers in a promise he made long ago (he has a thing about not breaking promises...) and is obsessed with sardines, believing they'll give him back his powers. Fights with either spears or swords.

Then there's Fenrich, his werewolf steward and second in command, who is just an all around snarky badass, but he seems to have a hidden agenda of some kind. He uses fists or axes.

And, the main antagonist so far is some girl who failed to become a prinny when she died, is convinced she isn't dead and is instead dreaming, and wants to exterminate prinnies for some reason. Her name is just ???? at the moment.

[Demonskid]

Ah so none of the reoccurring characters yet.. =(

[Suzerain of Sheol]

Axel just showed up... he's apparently the jailer of Hades now. >_>

[Demonskid]

OMG Axel! I .. found him ANNOYING in 2 x'D but he was still funny <3 the poor thing

[Serra Britt]

I really do want this game, even though I can't possible put the time into it right now. I am such a huge Disgaea addict it's not even funny, I have invested at LEAST 300 hours into each of the first three.

I thought I saw some familiar people on the cover, maybe I was mistaken?

[Suzerain of Sheol]

It's my favorite out of the series so far. Absolutely amazing. The whole thing is just so wonderfully streamlined. The story is original, too, and flat-out hilarious at times.

Only recurring character so far has been Axel, who at the moment has spread a virus that is turning everyone in Hades into clones of him. >_>

[Serra Britt]

Sounds like an Axel-y thing to do. The storyline always makes me laugh in Disgaea, it's what first pulled me into it.

[Suzerain of Sheol]

My favorite aspect is how the 4th wall just doesn't exist. One of the story characters has the class "Supposed Final Boss". How awesome is that? :p

[Serra Britt]

Yes, that's one of the best parts of Disgaea I think. Like how many of the class names in the third one got screwed around with for storyline purposes :3

[Suzerain of Sheol]

One thing I do like about this story is that the demons really do act demonic. They say and do really awful things without even thinking about it. The story is simultaneously absurd and more grounded than it's ever been. And Fenrich, the Etna of this game, is a cold, cold character. Manipulates people into getting themselves killed like it's nothing.
