From the Review: "While many games these days are toning down the difficulty, simplifying mechanics, and lowering the barrier of entry for the expanded audience and "casual gamer," the Disgaea series remains the polar opposite of this movement. Bafflingly complex, arduous, and full of bizarre Japanese quirk, it is exactly what we mean when we talk about a "hardcore" game. It's also one of the best strategy games around, absolutely charming, and a great value for your gaming dollar since it is a near bottomless well of gameplay. As I've said before, if I only had one game with me on a deserted island, I'd want it to be a Disgaea game"
