It is now time for my last rhythm-based game that I’ve recently got is my favorite of them all. The game Rhythm Heaven is a very unique and innovative game to come to the DS in quite a long time. In the game the objective is to use your stylus and either flick, tap or  hold it in sync with the music in order to receive a perfect from your conductor.  Unlike the first two previously mentioned rhythm games that have music we all know, this game has it’s own soundtrack that is very addicting to listen. To also add on to this amazing game, would have to be the mini-games it self. Each game has their own interesting use of what function or functions to need to utilize in order to get a Perfect in the end. I mean what other game has you plucking beets or in a choir trio singing to the conductor or slicing vegetables with Samurai swords. While the game is exciting it is also very challenging. Any type of gamer will have all kinds of troubles trying to beat these levels that the game will throw you a bone and you can skip this level entirely and do a different one. Among the games faults, this is a great game for anyone and should be known as wonderful addition to the system.

I give it a 9.5… it was short of 10 because of how hard it was in the end.

After my enjoyable experience with the Looney Tunes game I decided to try another Rhythm based game that I heard called Elite Beat  Agents. I was once again hesitant in getting this game, but I really enjoyed the last game I decided why not and I got it and enjoyed it. Unlike the Looney Tunes game instead to tap and drag you have to just tap, repeatably tap or spin according to the music you are playing. There isn’t much story except three agents, depending on which game you play, have to solve all kinds of dilemmas like a babysitter trying to keep her job and her football loving boyfriend or helping two movie starlets survive the wild or even helping a young girl with her Christmas wish… I will not spoil that one. The humor in this game is very top-notch and really makes this game work very well. Also, the game is never repetitive and it never gets boring no matter how many times you play it. My only concerns is that while they are enjoyable to play over and over they are considerable hard and even when you are on the first level of difficulty. Another reason is that, like in the Looney Tunes game, some of the songs just don’t along with the scenario. For example, “Sk8tor Boy” is being played to a guy driving a woman to a hospital to give birth to a baby… where is the connection to the song? Besides that, this game is very fun for anyone that loves rhythm based games and also a very challenging one as well.

I give this game a 9

Let me start off by saying that I am a big Looney Tunes fans for years I even have all the Looney Tunes DVD’s too. Now when it comes to their video games they are all just hit and miss with me like the Crazy Castles or the recent movie game Back in Action!, which were all not that great from what I’ve seen. This was my instinct until I came across a new Looney Tunes game that was a rhythm game with all the original characters we all know and love for the past fifty years. I will admit at first I was hesitant on getting the game since I had never played any rhythm based games in my gaming life, but soon changed when I first started playing this game. Right off the DS stylus, the game features all kinds of famous scenes from all kinds of Looney Tunes cartoons from Bugs Bunny to Foghorn Leghorn. The reason for re-creating these scenes is because the dim-witted Tasmanian Devil destroyed all the cartoons and you, the conductor, must help Bugs and his friends fixed the cartoons. I will admit this is a bit of a let down, but that makes up when you start playing the game. You have to click and either drag your stylus to go along with the music which is both creative and simple for anyone interested in rhythm based video games. The only problem I have is that the music in the game is not the “right” music for this type… I mean “Carmen” for a Foghorn Leghorn cartoon just doesn’t seem right to me at all, but some songs go very well with the cartoons like the “Barber of Seville” goes great with the famous cartoon Rabbit of Seville. My favorite part of this game would be the remixes that are in the game which is very well done.

Overall, it is a good game and I give it a 7.5

I thought it would be fitting to review this game since the new one came out. Anyways, this is a great sequel and also a great transition from the Gamecube to the DS. It maybe the same scenario just like in the first game but, they made it with several new features, more people and places to explore in this vast and “Wild World”… *cricket sounds*… ok then.. Not only that there is also online using Wi-Fi so you can visit other peoples towns and do just anything. It maybe like the first game, but it is still fun to pick up and play.

I give it a 9
