Best DS Games of 2007 Highlights

      • IGN: The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass Review 9.0
      • Hardcore Zelda fans will find this to be an easier experience than previous handheld efforts, but when looking at the total package it's easy to see that amidst the "classic vs. touch" arguments and "hardcore vs. casual" debates that will undoubtedly arise, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass is truly an amazing product worthy of praise.
      • 1up.com: The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass Review 8.0
      • The dialogue is expertly accomplished, with Nintendo's "Treehouse" translation team doing its usual bang-up job, and it weaves nicely with the dramatic, panoramic cut-scenes that show off the game's impressive graphics engine.
      • IGN: Bleach: The Blade of Fate Review 8.5
      • Whether you’re a fan of the Bleach series or not really doesn’t matter when it comes to Bleach: Blade of Fate. Treasure went all-out in developing a DS fighter that plays, acts, and looks better than any of its competition, and it shows, as Bleach is hands-down the best fighter on the system.'
      • IGN: Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings Review 8.3
      • What Revenant Wings offers, however, is the next step in the story, complete with some inspiring music, beautiful visuals, impressive CGI, and some innovative RTS-like gameplay.
      • 1up.com: Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings 8.0
      • Thanks to some tough (but never unreasonably frustrating) battles, a healthy dose of fan service, and a quality localization, Revenant Wings is a thoroughly enjoyable hybrid.
      • IGN: Planet Puzzle League Review 9.0
      • You'll be hardpressed to find a larger list of features in any handheld puzzle game. The fact that you can play this online is only one of the many fantastic reasons to grab a copy of this game.
      • Planet Puzzle League GameSpot: Review 7.5
      • If you break open a nice, big combo, you'll dump giant blocks on your opponent's pile. And if you work certain item blocks into your combos, you might reshuffle your opponents' pieces, freeze up one of their rows, or simplify the colors on your own board.
      • 1up.com: Planet Puzzle League Review 9.0
      • Planet Puzzle League features a variety of modes ranging from the Endless marathon to Garbage Attack (in which players attempt to transform indestructible blocks into normal colored pieces), an embarrassment of riches in terms of head-to-head play and ultimately a high level of general excellence all around.
      • IGN: Lunar Knights Review 8.2
      • "Lunar Knights retains a lot of the elements that made the Boktai experience so much fun, and opened things up by taking out the sun sensor that essentially tied a hand behind gamers' backs."
      • GameSpot: Lunar Knights Review 8.4
      • "With a lengthy, engaging story, great production values, and loads of interesting gameplay touches, this is an action adventure game that's worth the challenge."
      • 1up.com: Lunar Knights Review 9.0
      • "Lunar Knights is easily one of the finest games to date for Nintendo DS. Like the bard said, it plays just as sweet by any other name."


      • IGN: Pokemon Diamond Review 8.5
      • "After ten years of Game Boy Pokemon catching and battling, the core game mechanic still holds up as an addictive game design -- tons of strategic depth and gameplay that's incredibly rewarding; it's one of those games that offers an enormous sense of accomplishment for even the littlest things performed."
      • GameSpot: Pokemon Diamond Review 8.5
      • "Diamond and Pearl do what the Pokémon franchise has always done best--deliver an accessible and highly addictive role-playing game experience."
      • 1up.com: Pokemon Diamond Review 8.5
      • "Pokémon's real draw has always been linked battles, so it's fitting that this is where Diamond and Pearl's biggest improvements lie."
      • IGN: Sonic Rush Adventure Review 8.0
      • "Dimps and Sonic Team continue to prove that 2D is the perfect canvas for the Sonic the Hedgehog design. Sonic Rush Adventure is an improved and worthy sequel to Sonic Rush, definitely the game to get if you haven't already made the leap with the original title."
      • GameSpot: Sonic Rush Adventure Review 8.0
      • "Great level designs, fun, hip-hop-infused soundtrack, dynamic blending of 2D gameplay and 3D graphics. Sea-travel levels break up the action."
      • 1up.com: Sonic Rush Adventure Review 7.5
      • "The levels pull out all the stops, incorporating practically every 16-bit Sonic gameplay mechanic short of lock-on cartridges."
