I've only played DQ8 and it kind of sucked if you ask me. The characters were no fun at all, (Especially the king DX), the plot didn't develop that well, the music is uninspiring and uses pretty much the same tune in every song, the gameplay is like a 2.0 version of FF1, and..... yea you can tell from my post that I didn't like it.

You played any ?

Well,I have only played DQ8 too, the only thing good about it was the monster arena. I kinda liked the battle system, once you got some cool moves. I did think that some of the characters were really funny but overall the game kinda stunk.

I thought the graphics were pretty good though.

Its hard to believe that FF and DQ were rivals. FF blows it out the water.

I bought DQ today for £15 and I'm quite enjoying it at the moment, the only thing that's irking me is the fact that the main character never speaks.

I could never get into it, and I played it for about 20 hours.

It's had really good reviews and I can sort of see why. The battle system is really basic though.

DQ8 wasn't all bad, though. I actually liked most of the characters and the gameplay was okay. What I didn't like about the game was that the storyline was too cliche. I sometimes like cliche but I was hoping for something else when I played that game.

Oh and as for the hero not speaking, Link never talked either but I LOVED the Zelda franchise.

Never played Dragon Quest. Don't think I will either, doesn't look all that amazing to me.

I got bored after I finished with the Monster Arena.

I haven't got to the Monster Arena yet, but if it's as good as people make it out to be then it'll be a welcome addition in my eyes. This game has got me hooked at the moment, I played from yesterday evening until the early hours of this morning.

if DQ8 is what i think it is, here in UK its called DQ - journey of the coursed King... and if its the same one, its an amzing an deferent game, its not like FF games obviasly, you cant compare, just like KHs... its deferent and very coloufull game.. Im playing atm and so far no complaints.

Need to give a chance :)

my question is, couse i like it so much, and aparantly its actualy the best selling series in Japan, more than FF, is there any new dragon quests coming out on PS3.. couse i know theres for Wii and DS... stupid runing games like that, couse now il have to buy a Wii to play it lol but hopefully they will releace one for PS.
