Many reporters are the envy of fans when it comes to playtesting or getting to grips with demos and the like at various Game Shows. As you may know the Tokyo Game Show is going on at the moment and the Destructoid website have reporters there and theyve posted a review of their hands on with Final Fantasy IV DS.

Heres a few choice comments that they made- read more by clicking on the source link:

-First off, recent magazine screenshots do not do the title justice -- Final Fantasy IV DS looks as good as you'd hope, and maybe even a bit better. The entire cast has undergone an extreme makeover

-Although the soundtrack has only received a slight upgrade from the original soundtrack, key events and video are accompanied by spoken dialogue. It's a nice touch, and along with the gorgeous pre-rendered video cutscenes, it leaves you wondering how they fit all of that content on a DS cartridge.

-All of the action takes place on the top screen while the bottom is reserved for things like maps and stats. Battles take place on the top screen while the bottom displays stats like hit points and active- time battle meters. Also, when an enemy is targeted, its vitals are also shown on the bottom screen under the party's stats.

-This demo was just enough to give us an idea of the visual changes applied to this classic RPG, and these changes seem like they'll do a good job of complementing the rich tale that Final Fantasy IV weaves. The characters all have a sense of individuality now, which should help with the large and diverse cast of this story.
