Aug 27, 2020This game for a casual fan or regular gamer is about a 6/10
Graphics aren't bad for PS1 as it's a game released near the EOL. The game's difficulty will be hard if you do not possess a lot of knowledge about yugioh.
The story is just ok nothing terrible but nothing spectacular. This is a good game for any PS collector looking to start deep diving after obtaining all the classics. -
BahenFeb 24, 2004Good title, for what its worth. It is somewhat deep and has longevity. Only thing bad is its difficulty for a beginner. BTW, you don't need to BUY cards if you WIN them. (or us a second memory card if you are a cheater.)

PaulOct 26, 2005Unbeleivable the story line is amazing well worth geting the only downfall to this game is the 3d mode but it is ok for a ps1 game.
-
-
JustinL.Oct 19, 2002Yes of course it is a good game has good graphics but not that good on it's sound but other than that it really puts me to a challenge.

THANKS:yours truly CEAL203.

BlueEyesUltimateDragonOct 25, 2006This game has class. You can expect the unexpected. You'll never know what wil happen next so buy this game now if you had the guts.
-
-
OzzyoAug 23, 2005It's almost imposiible to beat the medow mage leader beacuse it is impossible to beat all of his gate gardians and you need 999999 to get a good card and 5 starchips don't cut it!
-
-
RyanB.Mar 14, 2003This game freaking sucks like HELL!!!! becuase there is no way to get 999999 starchips no way to beat seto in the tournament no way to get any good cards becuase they cost 999999 starchips the graphics suck in this game if i could i give this game a -0

VaughnV.Aug 1, 2002This game was a waiste of time and money, i should have gotten MONKEY BALL!!!
-
-
CristhianC.Mar 13, 2003Well i give 4 to this game because i think needs more graphics, more dinamic in the battles and only presents the cards in a realy bad way i mean it looks simple.
-
-
DragonKnightofFinalFantasyFeb 15, 2004Zzzzzz Snore ZZZZZ Wha oh um.Oh yeah the game sucks real hard it completly suc-Zzzzzz uh sorry it's boring Ya see it ha-Zzzzz ugh what is up with Konami man they should just forget about Yu-gi-oh! and stick with Castlevania.Don't buy this game there is nothing good about it.
-
-
JoeJ.Jan 10, 2003It's cool , but it needs a lot of work ....Can we say , "Graphics!!!" So Nitendo... Has better.
-
-
StillMr.ChimpFeb 19, 2003This game is lucky i gave it a 2.u start out with horrible cards and it takes sooo long 2 get good ones.and the graphics suck.
-
-
Jose'BullsApr 17, 2003i like this game much but this is the stupidest game i really played!i'd thought it'd be like the game for gameboy color.Although,i do like it,they could let some high cards slip in my hand.
-
-
JoshH.Jul 6, 2002I love This Game It Is A Bit Hard But It Rocks!!!!!
-
-
TJGamefreakAug 2, 2002Great! I would give it a 100 but the scale only goes up to 10. I never miss an episode of the t.v. show. I would recomend this game to anybody who likes to watch the cartoon.
-
-
DonaldS.May 2, 2003I give this game a 10 because it is a challaging card game. It takes care of my spare time when I got nothing to do. It keeps you guessing what your opp. has. so this game rooccckkkk!!!!!
-
-
MarinaL.Nov 8, 2002This game was cool. You would have to be a true yu gi oh fan to enjoy it. If you don't like yu gi oh then you obviously won't like the game. I can't wait until the game on PS2 comes out!
-
-
ScottR.Oct 2, 2002I have had no problems with this game the only problem i had is figuring out all the fusions. Just look them up online and u got fusions other than that i liked the game.
-
-
KatS.Jul 1, 2002Everything perfect, except for the fact you can ONLY play 1 card a turn!

MikeSep 30, 2002Not amazing, not horrible. It's a good game. Although the lack of effects(why the hell did you give me 3 Man-Eater Bugs if he can't kill a card with his Flip-Effect?) can be bothersome, as can how they go from relatively weak Rex Raptor to Weevil tossing down a Jirai Gumo(2200/500) and attacking without a chance of halving his own LP...
-
-
BobH.Mar 18, 2003I love it though i can't get all the cards!!!!!!!!
-
-
CraigM.Mar 7, 2003This game sooooooooo rocks i've been playing this game for 3 months thats why i gave a 10.
-
-
StuartM.May 16, 2003It is the best game ever.
-
-
IkhwanK.Oct 28, 2005Very bad ending but i"m happy to play this games.
-
-
RyanH.Mar 4, 2005Because the cards cause 999,999 starchips does anyone know how to get infiniti starchips does anyone know how to get good cards of except for dueling the medow mage.
-
-
RickW.May 3, 2005I gave it a 9 because it's nearly impossible to get 999,999 starchips. i only get really good cards when i'm battling the meadow mage (i got 3 meteor black dragons from him :D). not enough to beat seto's ultimate blue eyes though...

DemonS.Nov 17, 2002While this game is excellent for those who follow the anime or card game, I wouldn't recommend it to the casual gamer. It's greatest flaw is the need to duel repeatedly and repetitively for star chips and new cards. However, it provides an intersting bit of backstory for the characters in the show, and allows for great versatility in deck creation.
-

NateV.Jun 3, 2002It's TITE!!
-
-
CassandraL.Jul 11, 2002I just started playin this game but so far its pretti kool...=( still dont get the fusion thing...
-
-
MayaIncaJul 17, 2002Nerve racking, fustrating,..you want to pitch it!!..then u learn some combos beat a few guys, get into the story... and u cant put it down!! Patience IS a virtue with this game.. and it pays off in spades!!

SilverpearlJul 2, 2002What do those reviews think they're saying!!! This game rocks!!! (duelling with Pegasus makes me so frutrating! He has all those trap cards...)
-
-
A.J.Jul 31, 2002This game rocks I beat it 1 and can't do it aging i almost got all the cards.
-
-
NickD.Jul 30, 2002This game is a masterpiece for those smart enough to understand it. You can play for hours on end without getting tired. The magazines suck they play the game for 5 minutes and rate it. You must truly get into this game to enjoy it.
-
-
TylarH.Jul 31, 2002I love this game i just need to beat peaguses.
-
-
SonglengH.Jul 7, 2002Love the game. Bad part is that the card combo and riutil get kinda confusing.
-
-
VengellaB.Jul 9, 2002This is the best game I've ever played!! I give it 3 thumbs up!
-
-
NolanB.Aug 29, 2002This is such a sweet game!!! I like the graphics, every thing about it!! And I just got the game yesterday!!!
-
-
MatAug 30, 2002I think its a good game, but u can only put one card down and u dont get monster effects like man eater bug's, and if u dont know what the card does then ur screwed because they dont tell u the exact thing but i think its still a great game.
-

OMG>:(Aug 8, 2002

BrianM.Aug 9, 2002I think this game kicks serious @$$!!

NickB.Sep 9, 2002I think this game rocks the house and i played it for 2 weeks now and i'am about done with the game.
-
-
XenonWaveJan 17, 2003This game is one of the best games for the ps1 that i've played on for a long time the only hard part is seto in the moden wold because he allways manages to bring up another blue eyes white dragon and take my deak out.
-
-
JohnS.Feb 13, 2003This game is fantastic, of course as long as you know what you are doing. A little difficulties here and there but we wouldn't want it to be too easy now would we.
-
-
PeterL.Mar 1, 2003I give this game an 8 because this game takes 2 long 2 get 999999 stachips and when u use it here it goes again duelin ur way 2 999999 again.
-
-
peterCullumMar 10, 2003i love this game i can't wait till the next one comes out
-
-
CHRISP.Mar 20, 2003It is good but it would be better if u could walk around.
-
-
kitusdeciusaridiusApr 25, 2003It's a quality game, but ill give it a 9 because getting 99999 starchips is HARD! ps does anyone know the 3 cards needed for the cosmo queen and tri horned dragon rituals?
-
-
JeromeL.Apr 5, 2003I like this game but it's wayyyyyyyy impossible to get all of those starchips.So I Choose an 8 for my choice.
-
-
MarceloS.Jun 4, 2003The best one. I bought it to my son and we have played it for hours with no stop. Great!!! Marcelo Seravat (Brazil)
-
-
AdamB.Aug 2, 2003If you do'nt like playstation games, you should try your luck with the real cards first.
-
-
DalzielB.Nov 10, 2004This game is really cool.To get twin headed thunder dragon fuse a thunder and a dragon, to get meteor.b dragon beat the meadow mage in the free battle for over a 100 times trust me!!!!!
-
-
GustaveF.Oct 9, 2004The game is really cool, especially if you play the trading card game also. It is a good variation, faster, more combat and less effects and the best, NO tributes are required!!! It is indeed hard to get good cards if you do not have much patience (I defeat each adversary in the free duel mode 50 times at least. Trust me, it is kinda boring). Good to play for one hour a day.
-
-
AhmetZ.Jul 4, 2004Fight with low medow mage to get meteor b. dragon 3500/2000 (i have 3 of them)

AaronK.Oct 24, 2005I neeeeed a cheat any starchips cards for mothing anything plz.
-
-
JoshD.Oct 10, 2002Ok, It is not fair to rate this game if you haven't played the card game and don't care for japanesse anime ok game good for the card players.
-
-
MarkP.Nov 28, 2002A very good game, I havent put it down in the last week. If the music was better and the cards were cheaper to buy (i.e. most good cards/combo cards cost 999,999 starchips, e.g Blue Eyes White Dragon) then it would be brilliant but hopefully the PS2 version will correct these bad points.

BasketBaller69NguyenDec 20, 2002The game is pretty cool but the cards cost too much. I think it is impossible to get the cards so why bother putting the cards on sell. :( Besides that, the game is pretty good.
-
-
MarioM.Oct 3, 2002It´s amazing when you play it you can stop it.
-
-
RanmaS.Jun 10, 2002I've read the net mags's reviews about it and I can clearly state that this game rocks, undoutedbly more than Pokemon TCG did on Game Boy a few years ago! I'd recommend it to hard-core gamers mostly though, as again seeing the reviews and playing the game, I can say the difficulty is set high and the average hop and go player might get bored...
-
-
JoeJul 16, 2002This game rocks. It takes some time to get good at it but after you get the hang of it this game rules.
-
-
JakeJul 18, 2002I just started playin the game and it's fun dueling.
-
-
BryanM.Jul 4, 2002This game is great.
-
-
Z_LotFezzerAug 4, 2002I have info on a few awsome card combos. like twin headed thunder dragon all you need is 1 dragon 1600 attack or over then you combine it with an electric type you can also use a lower lvl dragon by combining it with 2 electric types or 1 metal type then the electric its very helpful when you got a mountain in play.
-
-
PuffyK.Aug 6, 2002If you like anime and see the cartoon, then the PS game turn indirectly into crack-coccaine. I'm hooked on a I-V
-
-
BMc.Aug 9, 2002Why not? yu-gi-oh! is like my favorite show and i just got the game a few weeks ago. i'm catching on to the strategy, and my friends like it too! so damnit its hella good!
-
-
V.V.Sep 10, 2002Great.
-
-
M.E.Sep 16, 2002You have to try this game out. If you like Yu-Gi-Oh you will enjoy all the different cartoon monsters being depicted in card/3-D form. Don't get your hopes up however because this is far from an actual Puzzle/RPG game. Be patient and logical and the fusions will come to you, but do not forget to read the instruction book!!!
-
-
VaughnS.Sep 21, 2002For one thing yes it does tell you Mat (press triangle) and it does suck that they don't have effects. Overall it is a good game but (like the show) they don't follow the rules of the true game completely. But like I said it is pretty good and deserves a good 8.
-
-
yosondon'tknowJan 6, 2003I think the game is good but the 3d graphics suck!!!!!
-
-
HeathL.Jan 7, 2003Very difficult, yet so much fun.
-
-
BraydanFeb 25, 2003It is ttttttttthhhhhhhhhhheeeeee best game.
-
-
AlexP.Mar 21, 2003This game ROCKS but it is nothing like the things in the show. I would be better if you could walk araound and had a choice of deks.
-
-
JamesE.Mar 24, 2003I think it is cool you get to battle monsters and combined.
-
-
AndrewS.Mar 27, 2003It's a good game, but it's very frustrating when you lose! I also wished they used the intro to the show at the start! Does anyone know how to get 999,999 starchips without having to go through an almost infinite amount of free duels?
-
-
JosephR.Apr 1, 2003I liked this game alot but I don't think I'd want to try and beat this game again.It was very hard though very cool at the same time.
-
-
LukeH.Apr 15, 20039 because it's to hard to get brilliant cards, otherwise brilliant!!!
-
-
TimothyI.Apr 19, 2003I'd say it could be better if you can walk around. also, it would be better if you got to choose a deck like pegasus' deck.
-
-
DazP.May 1, 2003This game is amazing its real cool apart that the rare card like BEWD is 999999 so the only way u can get them is by beating good duelist that y there 999999.
-
-
FranciscoC.Jul 26, 2003It's a good game but I think Yu-Gi-Oh! The Duelist of The Roses is better because it got better grapics.
-
-
FrancisG.Oct 19, 2004The game ROCKS. But it is hard to get 999,999 schips and their is not much strategy at the game.
-
-
KurtK.Feb 28, 2004This game took me forever to beat but i finally did.By the way does anyone know how to get infinite LP for Action Replay? Thanks.
-
-
TahmiD.Apr 19, 2004To have infinity starchips then when it says push start ener x,x, o,o, up, down. IT must me completed within 10 secs.
-
-
DarylT.Apr 28, 2004very good..give me gameshark cheats for yugi yo..
-
-
JonS.Jul 19, 2004This game is ight. If you like dragon cards so much keep fighting Meadow mage I already got a Meteor Dragon,Metal dragon, but i also got a Dark magacian from the desert high mage, if anyone finds a code for infinity starchips that will work cause the one on here dont work at all Tahmi D. so im out peace.
-
-
KingOfGamesAug 9, 2004Great game!play it all the time!!only drawback is the starchips..they give out to few for what the cards cost!i beat it,but im still confused on Rituals..over all it took bout 2 years to beat it.
-
-
TPubSep 21, 2004Best One I have seen yet.
-
-
SamuelW.Sep 21, 2004It is really cool.
-
-
Yu-Gi-OH!MasterSep 4, 2004This game is great, lots of paper to print off and arange all the Fusions, but it was worth it. This game can be beat without the 999,999 StarChips Cheat, with the list of fusions.
-
-
GloogP.Oct 7, 2005This game is good once you get good cards. What is the cheat for infinate starchips? The real one! Tri, Tir, up, up, circ, sqr, up, down w/e doesn't work!
-
-
EdwardP.Apr 4, 2005This is one of the best games i ever played, but it is so hard and it's hard to get starchips because i need 9999 for blue eyes white dragon.
-
-
MartynH.Jun 2, 2005I have time wiserd + dragon + moutins and a dragon boost i got a 3400 dragon and i beated 10 people and how do u get 999999 starchips if eney one nows tell me plz.
-
-
AbdallahZ.Sep 17, 2005It is the best game i ever seen the monsters and the magic cards and the trap card they are coooool !!!!!!
-
-
Modern TCG fans will probably either love it for being simple and different, or hate it for being old and unlike the current game.
-
Daunting difficulty and narrow appeal...There are teeth of mine I'd pull with a pair of pliers rather than play this card game ever again.
-
I would ultimately recommend this for either someone who has played the card game before or someone who has a lot of time to go through and write down or memorize the card combos and fusion results, since everything is trial and error.
