I had never heard of this game and I picked it up at EB because i saw it for 10 bucks and its made by Atlus. It seems to be rare but with no demand from the ebay auctions I looked at. Anyone know if this game is good? worth my time? Any feedback is good. Thanks

its not rare, theres lots of copies around that no one wants.
i havent played it, but it had the misfortune of comming out at the same time as suikoden 3, kingdom hearts, and grandia xtreme.

kingdom hearts is the game it is most often compared to. i never played kingdom hearts, i have played dual hearts and didnt like it at all. If you can get past playing as a 8 year old, and that the whole premise of the game is going into dreams and farting around, then maybe you will like it.
I guess it is a bit uncommon, but it isnt rare or valuable or anything.
if you want a hearts game, get steam hearts for the saturn or turboduo :D

ALways wondered how good this game was. Never thought it was very rare or uncommon since most of the used stores around me have probably 2 or 3 copies lying around for abou $8-12.

I had it and played a couple hours of it. Its not terrible and the puzzle system is interesting but all in all its mediocre.

I too have seen it around at GS or EB and some people told me it's rare O.o.. but with the comment of it being not wanted seems to me like ICO or something. I've never played any of the two games, but whenever I see it for around 10 makes me want to buy it or soo...
It doesent look very good to me

Wow, I guess I'm the only one who really enjoyed it. I think if it hadn't released up against Kingdom Hearts it would have done much better, but it's a very similar game play-wise. The dream aspect reminded me a LOT of Alundra. All in all it's a very fun game, and I recommend picking it up if you see it cheap - it's definitely worth a try.

well ico is worth every penny, should be in every collection.... but thats why i pikced up dual hearts, 10 bucks, 9 bucks after edge card so it was a good deal for a game id never seen before, hopefully its worth the 9 bucks

I agree with you, it really was a good game. The premise of jumping in and out of dreams is pretty cool, even if it has been done before. I found it to be better than Kingdom Hearts

I got it a while back for about $20 (along with SkyGunner) and I actually dug it for a while. The game was actually pretty funny at some parts, and I think you either have to fight or rescue Santa Claus. Good stuff.

I thought it was a decent game. Not as good as Kingdom Hearts, but still fun.

That's because it was developed by the same company as Alundra (Matrix Software). It's not a sequel, but it definitely feels like a spiritual successor to the first Alundra game.
