Description

The game is fully tested & guaranteed to work. It’s the cartridge / disc only unless otherwise specified.
Baten Kaitos Origins takes place 20 years before the first Baten Kaitos game. The hero, a blue-haired young man named Sagi, was sent to assassinate the Emperor but found the job had been done for him. Blamed for the death, he’s now on the run with two friends – a robot named Guillo and a young woman named Milly. Explore a massive world filled with memorable characters and bizarre creatures. There are more than 600 different Magnus cards in Baten Kaitos Origins, some of which have truly fantastical properties. Players can acquire cards in many different ways, including trading, buying, winning as spoils of war or by creating them themselves.

Ive had this game for a couple of weeks now and I agree that this is everybit superior to the original. With only 3 characters in the game it makes leveling a breeze and the interaction between Guillo and Milliarde is comical, leaving poor Sagi in the middle of an argument. The graphics are absolutly beutiful, the voice overs are 100 times better (no talking through tin cans into the mic) but my only complaint is the battle system. One plus they got rid of the round wasting "Shuffling the deck" the only down sides is the one deck per party some times you have a hand full of cards and cant use them because a character is either afflicted with a status ailment or dead. so you have to discard alot or take a beating till something good pops up. The elemental weapons have also been turned into equip magnus, and the SP combos can only be done in acending order now. and the timer for grabbing magnus is quick you have to be fast to get the cards you need or that character is passed. Indeed buy this game once you get the hang of it, its great.

This game is prequel to one of the best role playing game on the gamecube called Baten Kaitos Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean. Both games have the unique real-time card based combat system. Both games have epic story with amazing twists and great characters. Both games can be considered amoung the most beautiful games on the gamecube and they both have excellent soundtracks.Baten Kaitos Origins is a prequel to the first game and you really don't need to have played the first one. If you play this fresh you will benefit from the fresh perspective and if you have already played Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean then you will get a different perspective. I recommend both games for anybody looking for a great RPG on the gamecube. Both games provide well over 60 hrs of gametime.

The sequel to Baten Kaitos, this game is a great addition for fans of that first game. You have real time card strategy action mixed in with an epic storyline.It's fair enough to say that some people will love this game and other people will not feel the pull of the gameplay style. This is a *strategy* game. If you are a shooter fan, wanting to jump immediately into shooting and killing enemies, you will probably be disappointed. You can spend literally 15 minutes walking around talking and gathering before you're even allowed to enter into your first combat. This is a game that requires patience and dedication.For people with that time, attention and desire for strategy, they'll get everything they could ask for. Your characters move in real time as you play and attack, their swords flying, their wings moving. Your organize your cards and play them for the maximum effect.In the world around you, world-shaping events are taking place, and you meet a number of characters, roam through landscapes, and explore this world. It compares with Final Fantasy and other similar games, but with a card base.The sound is reasonably good, with epic, energizing music pulling you into the gameplay. I found some of the voice actors to be uninspiring, but you find that in most games of this type. You're not expecting drama quality acting.I would recommend people play the first Baten Kaitos before moving on to this one. That way you get a feel for the series and style, and really get a full appr.

The vendor "classic games revisited" send a game well packaged and new.This rare game is the last of my collection, i want to obtain.Before, i have already played the first captivating opus.I like this game style : it's like a book or something strange and beautiful ,an adventure far from the reality, and a game system very interesting.

this is the second game of the baten kaitos saga but the history takes place 30 years prior to the events of the first game.This game is very good, the combat system is difefernt now and harder to use but that make the game more challenging.This game is much better thant the first because it has a lot of things that the firt didnt have like "New Game+"where you keep all your magnus in gathering(thank god), secret bosses and more submissions.If you play the first game you may want to play this too because it explains the background of what happened in lost ocean

Baten Kaitos Origins is the prequel to 2004's Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean. (Playing the first Baten Kaitos is recommended but is not required to enjoy this game.) Origins was published by Nintendo in 2006 and was released with very little fanfare, which is too bad, because Origins is easily one of the best RPGs on the GameCube. This game improves upon its predecessor in almost every way, from a refined combat system to a more open-ended gaming experience.Origins is a Japanese RPG, employing a lot of the conventions typical to the genre, including experience points, leveling-up and a 17 year-old male protagonist. The game is lengthy, offering a good 60-70 hours of solid storyline - including a few notable plot twists - spiced with countless sidequests.What sets Origins apart is its combat system, which eliminates many of the flaws of standard RPGs. First off, there are no random battles in Origins, allowing you character to often avoid combat if needed. Secondly, Origins employs a fast-paced combat system that merges active time combat (i.e. Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy X-2) with a dynamic card-style system that involves stringing attacks together in real-time. The term "card-based" may turn off some gamers, but this is not Yu-Gi-Oh... Origins uses a fast-moving system that forces the gamer to think on one's feet and make quick decisions. It proves a fantastic change of pace from plodding menu-driven RPGs of old, requiring a lot of strategy and plan.

I was so happy when I saw this in the store, I had no idea they made a prequel! But yeah, you might want to play this first before going to the second one, just so you have a better background on the legends and how the lands came to the sky.But this one is HARDER and more FRUSTRATING!!! You might need a guide for this if you get stuck...especially at the beginning of the second disc. But this game really is awesome, with humorous characters, even younger supporting characters and great new cards to use! Its not quite perfect as the next one, since the next characters are a little more likeable, but this is still a worthy installment! I hope they make another at least, these games are addictive!!!

If you are a fan of the original Baten Kaitos, then you will enjoy this as well. Great story, familiar gameplay (although combat system is modified, I wouldn't say it's any better/worse then before).

i have been a fan since the original Baten Kaitos and could't wait to get the second game. this new title vastly improves on the first game. those gratting voice dialogue is actually a lot better in this game, the graphics are extremly gorgeuos and even the new battle system is fun once you get used to it. the game is a prequel to the first, were in this game the main character is Sagi, who works for the empire. when he is assigned to assasinate someone, he unexpectanly finds there already dead and he is framed for the crime. now he must clear his name with the help of the android Guillo and the gental Milliard. whats diffrent from the first game is unlike the first, you only have three playable characters and there is only one deck for all players. the battle system is also a little diffrent but still keeps true to the original, this time incorperating more combo attacks but what i love is that they got rid of that pointless shuffling the deck thing, thumbs up. the story line is also a bit darker then the first one, through out the game i felt really hopeless and that i could not stop it. the plot also fills in gaps left unanswered in the first game. another feature is the ability to upgrade magnus cause in this game your provided only a handful that you can upgrade through out the game and make even more powerful magnus. you can also compete in the collisuem were your playing skills can be put to the test. also, i really, really, REALLY hope they come out with a third Baten.

Love this game. Owned it when I was younger. It has such an interesting battle dynamic along with impressive graphics and a nice story line.If you like games with story, beauty and originality this one is for you. This and the first Baten Kaitos were must haves for me.

this is a must have, must play, easily one of the best games I've ever played. I've never played a game where the story was so well told, even if very confusing, I still don't really understand the story, but I swear that you'll rarely come across a game where the story is told so well.

Bought this because I loved the first one. The combat system takes some getting used to, but it's really fun once you get the hang of it. With improved gameplay overall as well as much better voice acting, any fans of the first game should really pick this up.

Baten Kaitos Origins is one of the most addictive RPG games, but unfortunatly it was released during next generation consoles and no one played it on GameCube!It was really worth trying and believe it or not: Its story is even better than Final Fantasy.

The story only gets more captivating in Baten Kaitos Origins. I absolutely adore this series, and this "prequel" was nothing short of what I expected. Very very pleased. I can only hope this series gets the recognition it deserves so that more will be produced!Beautiful music, beautiful timeless graphics, and a beautiful story. Love.
