    Konami would do well in scouting out a new development team to handle the next Yu-Gi-Oh! game. With the last couple being workmanlike but unremarkable efforts, it's difficult to shake the feeling that without an overhaul the star of this particular CCG is only going to fade further. And that would be a pity, because the core card game remains one of the most strategic that we've ever seen.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is just good but lacks of voice acting. Legacy of the Duelist is probably the most satisfying Yu-Gi-Oh video game I've ever played. I played the GBA games back when those were big, and this game is much more detailed (and has over 6,000 cards to collect). You also get to relive the duels of all five generations of the Yu-Gi-Oh TV series (Duel Monsters, GX, 5D's, Zexal, and a little bit of Arc-V). But I don't really care about any of those except for the original Duel Monsters series, since that was the one I grew up with. It covers a decent amount of that show, but not as much as I had hoped (the Noah arc isn't there at all, and I think there's a bunch of other stuff missing too). That said, most of the battles you care about are there from the beginning of the show up through the Battle City season. You can either use the story deck or your own custom deck for each duel, and you can even play as the opposing side if you want (giving you a chance to use Pegasus' deck against Yugi, rather than the other way around).

I was 10 years old when the show and cards had released. I had fell in love at first sight and continued to play for 3 years. I had quit for about 6 years and then came back and the love is still there, even though many of the mechanics had changed. I do not like how the way 5ds turned out. But anyway, the game itself is great and has from what I believe all of the cards minus some new ones. The minor complaint I do have is the lack of the new arc not being included, it is nice that the cards are there though. A few of the great adds are the reverse duels which add quite a lot of replayability and the challenge modes. There is also a lack of tag duels in the game which bothers me because they were in the last one. I might be able to understand that they removed it because people wouldn't play the other modes added but tag duels was a big thing. It is still a great game none the less. I would have given it a 9 if it had a tag-duel mode. Expand

Pero perfecto para los amantes de este juego de cartas. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Would be a lot higher if the game had a tag mode and the AI didn't cheat. The card unlocks is okay for me because I'm used to the other yugioh games with this concept but the AI is really bad. I dueled Jack 5 times in a row just to see if he would pull the same cards. All 5 times he pulled 3 dark holes and a raigeki on the first turn. Expand

    The largest and most fulfilling feature in Yu-Gi-Oh of the last generation on the PS3 and Xbox 360 was Tag Dueling.

    There are no Tag Duels
    The largest and most fulfilling feature in Yu-Gi-Oh of the last generation on the PS3 and Xbox 360 was Tag Dueling.

    There are no Tag Duels in this game. This is unacceptable.
    Whether this game was made by a different company or not is irrelevant. I normally expect game series to move forward with their designs, and add to themselves. Instead, they have just flat out removed solid features of the game.

    Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist has taken a big step backward, and unless you like playing card games alone, you should not buy this game.
