Beyblade Metal Masters

Beyblade Metal Masters 

 

Beyblade has become huge lately. It has the potential of rivaling Pokemon one day. The concepts are vastly different though. Beyblade revolves around spinning tops. Players launch them into a circular bowl, where they knock one another around. It is fun to do in real life. But inside a video game? It sounds pretty boring.

Beyblade Metal Masters is way more exciting than I ever thought it would be. I mean bashing around tops, where does that get fun? Hudson Entertainment made it a lot of fun. There are various powerful attacks the player can enact in Beyblade Metal Masters. Players can smash the other top (err sorry Beyblade) until it has no more life. Or knock them out of the stadium. Knocking them out of the stadium can take some skill.

The characters have an anime look to them, and the front cover tells us there are more than thirty characters from the TV show. The Beyblade bump into one another and drain health. Take away all the health and it falls apart. The powers come in a variety of different ways. I thought the violence would be worse than it is.

The music in Beyblade Metal Masters is powerfully orchestrated. I enjoyed quickly knocking someone out of the stadium. There are a variety of characters in Beyblade Metal Masters. Some of them have colorful things to say. To me that is the main downside to this game. I could have done without their language.

Beyblade Metal Masters contains a lengthy amount of unlockable content. There are characters, parts, and more. Beating the arcade mode with a three man team is just the start of Beyblade Metal Masters. Two family members can enjoy Beyblade Metal Masters in single card download play, and multi-card play.

I was shocked to find there is a lot of strategy to Beyblade Metal Masters. In fact going in fast and furious is not always wise. Some opponents will circle around and tag you. I learned to adapt to the other players - especially the computer ones. Beyblade Metal Masters is a little on the easy side, but I see this game as being for kids seven to eleven.

The main lessons in Beyblade Metal Masters are to battle hard, and work diligently to save the human race. The fighting is done with Beyblades so I see that as safer than using animals, or directly fighting. I would like to see sequels to Beyblade Metal Masters in the near future. This Nintendo DS game honors the franchise in a way that fans will appreciate.
