Well...the first one was the best...So I would say go with that one...but good luck finding it. You would be better getting the PSP one in that case...

If you get the first one, you'll probably wind up ordering it online from somewhere.

Well, it looks like you've got three flavors to choose from:

Disgaea: Hour of Darkness for Playstation 2
Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness for Playstation Portable
Disgaea DS for Nintendo DS

They're all available on Amazon with the PS2 version going for about $20 and the portable versions each going for about $28.

You've got options, yo.

They re-released the original PS2 one as a greatest hits version, so it's not too hard to find now.
The PSP one is pretty much the same, just with more features, like Etna mode, records keeping, an extra character or two, etc.
The DS one apparently has yet another special mode, but has dumbed down graphics, severely limited voice acting, and lags like hell, from what a friend tells me.

It's probably best going Dis1-Dis2-Dis3 so you get some of the in-jokes, though Makai Kingdom, Phantom Brave, Rhapsody, and La Pucelle Tactics might be needed to understand all of the cameos.

I might pick that one up eventually...but with all the cycles I have on my other Disgaea games...It would seem weird starting over without much to go with...I would like to see how they use the touch screen in it though...That would be the only reason...

hmm i think i might go for the PSP one... the graphics on the PSP are fairly good, plus that etna mode sounds interesting

The DS version has that too, doesn't it?

Anyway, be sure to name all of your characters after us. :wacko:
