I personally find games with kanji easier, since it's less brainwork to work out where the word breaks are meant to be, plus once you know a fair amount of kanji, you can start to understand new words without knowing yet how to pronounce them
Yeah, Kanji rules.
I don't know why, but there's a certain nice feeling using lots of Kanji - probably because it feels so comfortable writing words with one single sign, and it takes up a very small space as well.
