What a bummer. We were all excited when we saw the first screens of the DS version of Puzzle Quest: Galactrix attached to IGN's preview. Then we had to go and read the preview."Galactrix will feature the same multiplayer modes as Challenge of the Warlords. That means the Xbox 360 and PC versions will be playable online, and the DS will include local multiplayer." And just like that, our dreams of Puzzle Questy Game Nights disappear like four contiguous red blocks.
This is less of an issue, of course, for people who have friends outside of the Internet, but we were really hoping Infinite Interactive would bring online play to the platform that made Puzzle Quest a household name (for certain values of "household"). And the screens do look nice.

How lazy of the developers, and I WAS looking forward to this game too.

Not surprising, considering the first... but damned disappointing. Still, I much prefer the DS version of PQ to the other versions (just prefer the interface and small screens), so I'll probably still get this. I just REALLY wanted online multiplayer for once!

I'll probably get it for the ds, despite no online. Honestly though, Infinite Interactive is wearing me down. The PSP version of the last game had bugs and glitches. If anything, they had better find compensation through this game.
