This is one of the best (if not the best) RPG on ps2.
I've played this game so much it's had me hooked for 4 years now since it's release in 2003.
it has an amazingly funny storyline although not immediatley, until you get further in the game is where most of the humor is at.
it has a very cool level cap and if you're good with numbers you can get all the way the Lv9999 which is the highest possible. you can also level up your items and gear so that they get stronger along with your characters that you unlock & create when playing thru the game.
it's got incredible replay value to it. it's very easy to pick up and SOOOOOO addictive lol if i do say so myself.
the one thing that most people won't understand is the price for it. you can only find it used in some places and it'll still be at $44.99. the reason is because the game sold so many copies you can barely find em anywhere and just about everyone likes it.
if you can find or if a friend has it try the game out and see if you like it. I know i did .
I've played disgaea 1&2, and I own the port on the PSP. After playing that game, my entire gaming experience and perspective has been changed forever, I can't wait for #3 to come out on ps3, even though I don't own one, but I'll find a way to play! Go Disgaea! WooT!!
