Some time ago I first heard of Elite Beat Agents and although I'm mainly a RPG player and I never played any music game that I liked, I decided to give it a try. To my surprise, I loved the gameplay and I even begun to like some of the tracks later on. I decided to import Ouendan because I simply wanted more. I wasn't into any sort of Japanese music but I remembered that I loved the soundtrack from The World Ends With You because it was so well fit into the game and I just started to love it because of the general greatness of TWEWY. Now after a few weeks with Ouendan I must say that it's simply one of the best games that I've ever played. The tracks are all amazing to play, with great rhythmic patterns and catchy melodies. I loved some songs right from the beginning, other ones I eventually began to love when playing them on higher difficulties. Out of 15 tracks, in my opinion only one is slightly weaker, the rest are all great, and some are just amazing. Songs from Ouendan are much more enjoyable than the ones from EBA both in terms of catchy melodies and great marker patterns to play. I highly recommend this game to simply everyone, because even if you would never have liked the tracks from the game when hearing them on the radio or from a cd, you'll just like them here because they are so enjoyable to play.
