This game is like nothing you've ever experienced.
Graphics: The graphics in The World Ends With You are very stylized. They are fun to watch and have good effects during combat. I have nothing to complain about.
Game Play: The game has a weird way of controlling you can control both players at once, but you don't have to and I don't. You can put the player on the top screen on autopilot so you don't have to worry about them. Over all pretty good stuff, so good in fact that I grind even though I don't have to.
Sound: the sound in this game is amazing. The voice acting (what there is of it) is spot on and the music is great. The soundtrack is composed of j-pop and some j-rap. I love the pop but I'm not so big on the rap. Over all though very fun to listen to.
Story: The story is a bit slow to draw you in but when it does it REALLY does. Lets just say the main character may start out as a jerk but half way through the game you'll really like him and loath another character 50 times more then you ever loathed Neku.
Over all I highly recommend The World Ends With You it's a great game and well worth the $40 entry fee. (Play the game and you'll get the joke.)
