The best in the Disgaea Series
The first thing to notice is that the graphcs have been rescaled for the PSP and look amazing for it. Although the game is solely a 2D sprite affair, the environments that are in 3D as well as the rescaled intro video (with the song "Sinful Rose"), really show how perfect this series is on the PSP as apposed to the bigscreen during the PS2 days. I feel that this isnt the strongest musically with the key track being Sinful Rose, but our favorite tracks return such as the song that plays for Rosenqueen stores and the theme song to Disgaea 1. There is also Japanese vocal track and English vocal track with tons of voiced dialouge.
Mechanically speaking those that have played Disgaea no what to expect. Disgaea 2 Dark Hero Days is an SRPG in which you can create more characters in different classes, level them up to level 9999, level up their items to level 100, and carry out many more numerous modifications to your hearts content. There are virtually no limits to creating the ultimate team and those who do will be heavily rewarded in the end, and endend game. Implementations from Disgaea 3 include the magichange system, in which you can move a human character and mosnter character together and get the mosnter character to transform into a weapon. You can now double magichange into a more powerful combination.
Storywise, the main story can span anywhere from 20 hours to 100 hours depending on one likes to level up their characters and enemies to get maximum experience points from them or to just rush through the standard mode and then play through the alternate storyline mode (which can actually be unlocked from the very beginning with a series of button presses). There is also promise of future DLC that will add other characters in the Disgaea storyline to this game as well for people to train, which is all forthcoming.
I found and still find Disgaea 2 to be a great entry for the Disgaea series on the PSP. My plan is to level several characters to 9999 just for the sake of trying to do billions of damage, it will be aweosme! There is no reason to not own it if this is your type of game. If you have played Disgaea 2 on the PS2 originally it is time to step up to this version, the bonuses, changes, and alternate storyline mode are worth it for this game.
