That said, at its core the game is quite good. I was constantly checking all my cards before making a move, so the game moved at a snailвЂ™s pace. Rather, in this DS game you have to tap a card, and then tap вЂњDetail.' After you go back to the main screen and look at another card, youвЂ™ll forget what the first card did. Part of the problem is that, like any electronic translation of a physical game, you cannot just look down at your card to see what it does. Character cards have so many special abilities and numbers that itвЂ™s incredibly hard to keep track of who can do what and when. And it seems like all 500+ cards have about 20 different attributes. The game includes over 500 individual cards, faithfully translated from their physical forms to electronic duplicates, so I can only assume that the entire FMA CCG is in FMA: The Trading Card Game. Predator systems of yore, and even those canвЂ™t compete in terms of pure complexity. The closest thing I can compare it to is the old Star Trek/Aliens. It makes the Pokemon CCG look like Go Fish. The Universal Fighting System (UFS) game has nothing on this. The FMA CCG is the most complicated CCG IвЂ™ve ever played. The card game has fizzled since its source material tipped its hat goodbye, but since I've played others with a level of dedication some might call obsessive, I was eager to try this one on for size. Various expansions were released throughout the animeвЂ™s run, with another celebrating the movie's release. I was unaware that FMA had spawned its own CCG (perhaps I shouldnвЂ™t be surprised), but after doing some research, I learned that the physical card game was introduced to our shores around the same time the American anime hit Adult Swim. I love the Pokemon Trading Card Game on the Game Boy Color because it allows me to play the game without going broke at the comic shop.

I have previously been disappointed with the poor video game adaptations of this series-two on the PS2 and one on the DS-but I was intrigued when I learned of an FMA collectable card game (CCG) for the DS. I could tell you all the reasons why, but thatвЂ™s not why youвЂ™re reading this review.

Full Metal Alchemist (FMA) is my favorite anime series.
