Elite Beat Agents (DS) Reviews

Elite Beat Agents is a brilliant rhythm game that will keep you playing for hours on end. Taken from a popular Japanese game involving dancing cheerleaders with superpowers ( don't ask) us westerners got the epic translation of the Elite Beat Agents; a crime fighting trio that solves problems with song and dance. The whole game is brilliant fun. ...  Read the complete review

Elite beat agents is an action adventure rhythm game for the portable Nintendo DS gaming system. It is a port from the Japanese version - Osu! Tatake! Oendan! which was introduced first on the Nintendo DS. A year after that, the answer for the other half of the world was "Elite Beat Agents" - with new stories, songs and graphics. ...  Read the complete review

Don't buy this game for kids, I implore you - unless you have kids with fantastic rhythm or who won't get frustrated fast. Essentially Elite Beat Agents is a rhythm game where you tap circles on the screen to the beat - however it isn't that simple. You need to do they in the right order, for the right amount of time and only when the ...  Read the complete review

My other half bought me this game after I had read reviews on how fun and different it was for the DS (at the time it was anyway) and well, I agree, it is different! (unless you class the not long released rhythm paradise!) The title screen is presented in a 3d style, you can scroll around the 'earth' as it were and select people from ...  Read the complete review

Elite beat agents is for anyone who likes rhythm games, it doesn't involve any special equipment like dance mats or plastic guitar accessories, but earphones are advisable (you can use any kind of normal earphones with the DS). There are a selection of songs, and the player uses the stylus to tap numbered circles to the beat of the song that is ...  Read the complete review

This game is brilliant and fun to play. Uses a very simple idea of tapping in tune with the song and also some other movents on screen. You command the "eilte beat agents" who help people out with their dance power. The stories themselves are shown in a very canny manner and are funny. Despite the simple gameplay the game is ...  Read the complete review

When I bought this game I had no previous experience with rhythm games and I heard this one was described as a bit eccentric, not for everyone's taste, but if you take the plunge it would be a lot of fun. This was pretty much true. The game is controlled with the stylus and requires you to tap and slide in the correct location at the correct time ...  Read the complete review

Elite Beat agents is easily one of the most addictive games I've played in a very long time. The gameplay is simple enough, there are several missions, each tells a different story and during the mission you simply have to tap the screen when promted, usually to the beat of the music or along with the words to the song. The stories ...  Read the complete review

Now this is a game worth buying for the DS. It is a lot of fun, the music in it is great, it takes a while to get into and it is far from easy. The idea is to press or hit the screen in tune with the music. The more you do it on time the more points you build up through combo's. After you complete a level another one unlocks with a ...  Read the complete review

Elite Beat Agents. This game is a English version of the Japanese sensation that swooped Japan by storm! The Songs featured on this game are very mixed. With Fast and Slow paced songs. This gives the game the different touches and dynamics making it a hard game to master. However, once mastered, it is one of the most enjoyable ...  Read the complete review

This game is not what I expected it to be. I saw a review show of this game and it turned out to be something completly different. I was expecting this to be a crime solving agent game but in fact its similar to a dance game where you must push the buttons to the beat of the music. I did like the game although it was a little bit simple. ...  Read the complete review

Whatever the problem: be it trying to make it big as an actress, get a pregnant woman to hospital on time, fending off a zombie attack or simply asking your boyfriend to go steady - the Elite Beat Agents are there to help. The head of EBA, a retired army commander capable of seeing every event in the world on some gigantic screen somewhere, ...  Read the complete review

I've always been quite a sucker for any kind of dance / music co-ordination game. Back when Dance Mats first appeared, I was delighted and instantly addicted (much to my girlfriends amusement!). The same with Singstar (or 'Wailstar' as we call it!) and of course Guitar Hero. The only real limitation of these games is the set up, and the additional ...  Read the complete review

Recently, rhythm games have become gaming's hot commodity, with Guitar Hero leading the way on home consoles. That franchise recently (and somewhat predictably) made it to the DS, but a far more addictive rhythm game has been available on the system for a while now - and it doesn't come with a wrist crunching peripheral. All you need for Elite ...  Read the complete review

This game was on my radar for a long time. Then I saw it at MovieTyme for just £12.99 so I bought it. The delivery took a while, but it was worth waiting due to the price. It has a 12+ rating (should be lower, maybe ages 7+) and has 1-4 player multiplayer modes too. The game itself is one of those dancing games. You know, tap on the ...  Read the complete review

You control the Elite Beat Agents. These agents are in place to protect those in trouble but they're not just any agents, oh no, no guns, explosives etc. These agents will save people through the power of dance. As the game begins you select people in different areas of the world to help. Once you have selected them a small bit of ...  Read the complete review

Elite Beat Agents had me skeptical at first. "What is the point of tapping circles to music? How fun could that be?" I debated whether to get EBA or another game, and finally chose EBA. I am very happy I did. Game Informer Magazine, a mag I normally trust, got it all wrong. I didn't detect any problems with the reaction time. The songs ...  Read the complete review

I got this after taking a sneak peak at my friends- it looked awesome and indeed, it is- This game way exceeded my expectations! This is a music/dance game with really lovely, upbeat songs that might inspire you to jump up and dance to (hehe). It's totally original and basically, what you do is you save the world by helping these Elite ...  Read the complete review

Elite Beat Agents is a game for the Nintendo DS. Unfortunately I don't own one of these, but my little brother does, and he recommended Elite Beat Agents as a game I might enjoy. And I must say, he must know me well! The basic premise for EBA is that you are a secret agent who needs to save those in need through the power of song. Each ...  Read the complete review

Having never been a fan of the DDR series or the other various dance games, I was pretty surprised at just how much I enjoyed Elite Beat Agents. The premise is simple - people all over the world are in trouble, and it's down to the agents to save them the only way they know how - through the medium of dance. You tap and drag your ...  Read the complete review
