So I guess you know that in Japan, they were actually Male Cheerleaders, not Secret Agents, right? Seriously. Only in Japan. Awesome (Cool game either way). |

I would go so far as to say that it is in fact one of the top ten greatest achievements in the history of human civilization. It is a life-altering experience. It is the bomb diggity.

Beat Writer Posts: 206 Joined: 12 Sep 2007 | Another upside: Ouendan is full of J-pop. |

Muckraker  Posts: 284 Joined: 9 Nov 2007 | Good point Razzle :) I got EBA too, and I even go as far to say that I liked their version of JJF better then the original, cause the speed is faster. Though, Im stuck with material girl on Sweatin', and I cant be bothered continuing now. |

The basic story, such as it is, is that you're a group of uh... secret agent cheerleaders. You go around to people who are having everyday problems and dance your ass off to encourage them to succeed. You play by hitting spots on the DS touch screen in time with the music, with a huge emphasis on precision of timing. It's horribly addictive, mainly because it's difficult and you really feel compelled to finish each song in that "just one more" kind of way that only ends because the red light on your DS goes on and you realise that you were supposed to go to bed two hours ago. |

Beat Writer  Posts: 195 Joined: 25 Mar 2008 | I'm afraid of Spin Markers. Seriously. Anything in any DS game that forces you to twirl your stylus around like mad, makes me fear I'd scratch my DS touch screen even more. Also, here's some J-Pop from the Ouendan games. Awkward when you see it on youtube, but it's by far one of my fav songs in the series if you actually play it in-game: |

Agents are GO!
Elite Beat Agents, in my opinion, the best DS game on the market. For it's quirky humor, and fun (if a little difficult) gameplay.
And I demand a sequel from Nintendo. Now!
