Sony PlayStation 2 Dragon Quest VIII: Journey Of The Cursed King, Model 662248905013

Enix's internationally popular Dragon Quest saga continues in this 3D adventure for PlayStation 2. The game tells the story of a spiteful court jester who finds a magic scepter and unleashes a terrible curse, turning peasants into thorns and nobles into wild beasts. Players take the role of an unassuming castle guard who is somehow spared by this curse, although it seems to have afflicted nearly everyone else in the land. To save the kingdom, the hero must recruit allies, explore the countryside, and battle the many enemies that stand between him and his quest. Combat is turn-based, and players can customize the ways in which individual party members fight. The North American release of Dragon Quest VII features additional cut scenes and voice acting not present in the Japanese original.

Features:

• A traditional turn-based battle system with jaw-dropping graphics merges the old with the new.
  
• Cut-scenes feature voiceovers bursting with wit and charm—added exclusively for the North American version!
  
• A totally revamped graphical user interface makes the classic Dragon Quest gameplay even more accessible—another feature exlusive to the North American version.
  
• Individual party members' behavior can be customized for optimal battle performance.
  
• Party members deploy awesome attacks and spectacular spells in stunning 3D.
  
• Enhanced music and sound effects stay true to the Dragon Quest series while providing a fresh listening experience for North American users.
