Customer Reviews of Dragon Warrior III

Best RPG for any Gameboy system yet.
In Japan the Dragon Quest series (known as Dragon Warrior in the US) has always been huge, every bit as big as Final Fantasy. US audiences haven't taken as strong an intest in this series (I beleive this is at large due to Enix US marketing strategies which have always been much better in Japan), it is still very strong no less. Of the original four Dragon Warrior games released for the 8-bit Nintendo, Dragon Warrior III was by far the best. The Gameboy Color remake is perfect, with enhanced graphics (in a few spots)m haven't finished the game so I'm not sure of all the changes, but so far it just feels like the original (now regarded as a classic game and one of the the most sought after preowned games for NES). If you're a fan of the original top-view Final Fantasy series, you will really enjou this game.

Great game for GBC/GBA
Wow. I'm impressed. I have played this game on the original NES and I must say this is definitely a step-up from the NES version. For those who don't know much about the game, this series (Dragon Warrior) is hugely successful in both the U.S. and Japan, and in Japan it is almost as successful as the Final Fantasy series. DW I+II, released last year, prompted Enix to go ahead and port DW III. I'm so glad they did.

First off, you can have multiple classes to your characters over the course of the game. The world is huge and the battles are new in that the monsters have animations, and so do your attacks. From what I have played the difficulty seems just about as hard on the NES version. Also the passage of time is incorporated into this game, as night and day pass, and people have different things to say depending on the time and some people will be out at night, etc.

I haven't found anything that detracts from this game. I'm only about an hour into the game, but I'm impressed with what i've played so far. It makes an excellent game to play on breaks and when everyone leaves the office (it can get lonely at night when you are the only customer service rep in the place ;)). I'm very impressed with this game and if you liked DW I+II and/or Final Fantasy (all of them) you will definitely go for this game. It earns every ounce of recommendation I can give.

A True Classic, and Alot of Game for the Price
For those gamers that were fortunate enough to have played Dragon Warrior III on the NES, this will be just a reiteration of what you already know - this game rocks.

Even in the face of today's modern graphics and effects, the scope, storyline, and gameplay of Dragon Warrior III still stand strong. The characters can be customized in numerous areas, and even retrained if they aren't working out - you can take your Lvl 40 fighter and make him a wizard, or let your cleric train as a merchant. The number of sidequests and the evolution of certain areas is impressive, and will give you 60+ hours of things to do. Best of all, the fighting system is so simple that even a novice can start playing and get hooked immediately.

This game gets my highest possible recommendation. For a fraction of the cost of a Final Fantasy game, you can get a game that will give you more enjoyment for a longer period of time.
