First, I want to point out the description is wrong. This game, alternatively known as "Duel Masters: Cobalt", is about five young duelists (Rusty, Luc, Rebecca, Flynn, and Trey) handpicked by notable anime character, Knight, to partake in the Five-Colors Tournament and stop the evil Widow and her gang from stealing brand new cards. It is a lot more awesome than it sounds, as the method of making new cards in the game is through a ritual that connects the human world and the creature world, creating a portal that links new creatures on to brand new cards.
Second, as for my greatest memory- where do I begin? Literally one of my favorite PS2 games of all time. I remember getting it and feeling surprised by the amount of original characters in the game with only two being from the anime, and one of them is a secret character you have to unlock in the arcade mode by winning 100 duels. My top 3 characters within this game will always be Trey, Luc, and Flynn due their deep story narratives on inferiority, being framed for cheating, and straight up covert events. I have always wanted either a remake or an updated rerelease with more cards, as the card pool for this game is incredibly limited but makes up for it with some of the best creature animations you have ever seen on the PS2. I don't think there is anything on the PS3, PS4, or any of the other consoles that hold a candle to how awesome this game looks. And this was all done by an American team, no Japanese developers involved, yet incorporates some incredible anime-style character designs that you just can't get anywhere else. Arguably, it is even better than the other Duel Masters games over on the Gameboy Advanced. Seriously, I would buy this game on my Switch if I had the chance.

Valkyria Chronicles 2Valkyria Chronicles 2 is a sequel to the critically acclaimed tactical RPG Valkyria Chronicles on the PS3, which was released exclusively on the PSP (PlayStation Portable) system. The game takes place two years after the conclusion of the original game and takes you back to the epic adventure set in 1930’s fictitious Europe. In this sequel, you play as a group of young Gallian Military Academy cadets who find themselves plunged into a bitter civil war when the newly formed Gallian Revolutionary Army stages a coup. As the drama and battle unfold, you will experience stories of friendship, love and growing pains during a time of war and revolution.
The 'CANVAS' engine originally developed by SEGA Game Studios Japan for Valkyria Chronicles has been fully redesigned for the PSP system. This incredibly distinctive engine will power over 20 new distinct and visually stunning environments where you will have over 200 different missions to explore. For the first time ad-hoc Versus and Co-op multiplayer gameplay will now be available. The 'BLiTZ' battle system has also been re-designed to offer players the freedom to strategically move around the environment and attack enemies using real-time controls, something never before seen in the tactical role-playing game genre.
This game adds some new unit classes and the ability to upgrade or change classes. It also changes the battle system to include multiple map areas that are unlocked as you take over enemy bases revealing more of the battlefield and allowing you to call units into that area.Action Fantasy Historical Warfare
Valkyria Chronicles 3: Unrecorded ChroniclesSenjou no Valkyria 3: Unrecorded Chronicles, usually referred to as Valkyria Chronicles III, is a tactical role-playing game developed and published by Sega for the PlayStation Portable. It is the third game in the Valkyria Chronicles series and was released on January 27, 2011 exclusively in Japan. An expanded version of the game, subtitled Extra Edition was released in Japan on November 23, 2011. The game features an opening song Moshimo Kimi ga Negau no Nara sung by Japanese singer May'n.
Occurring in the same time frame as the first game, Valkyria Chronicles III is a side story that follows the exploits of an unwanted and castigated Gallian Army squad during the Imperial invasion of 1935. Contrasting the previous games' bright outlook and recognition for their protagonists, Valkyria Chronicles III explores the themes of being outcast and the search for redemption. As described by its catchphrase, the game tells "The tale of nameless soldiers who, on the verge of despair, changed history."
The game was the first in the series to not officially be translated into English by Sega. However, an unofficial fan translation for the Extra Edition was eventually released in December 2013.Action Fantasy Warfare Drama

Valkyria ChroniclesSet in a fictitious continent reminiscent of the 1930s, Valkyria Chronicles depicts Europe divided in two and ruled by two super powers: the Empire and the Federation. The Empire has set its sights on invading a small neutral country called Gallia, situated in the middle of the two superpowers territories, in an attempt to secure invaluable natural resources. Within this struggle a hero named Welkin, and his fellow soldiers of the Federation's 7th Platoon, are fighting back against the invasion and the Empires attempts to unify the continent under its power.
During the ensuing war the Federation discovers that the Empire possesses a secret weapon, known as the "Valkyria" - an ancient race with special powers thought to exist only in legends. With this new discovery the fate of the Federation's ability to turn the tide of the war, and the hope for a better future, hang in the balance.
