Good representation of the movie

Advantages: Very good animation
Disadvantages: Can be a little to difficult

The Lion King has become one of my favorite Disney movies with its combination of cute and loveable characters and gripping storyline. It was inevitable that this movie would spawn an action computer game. The game Lion King is a two-dimensional platform game. The idea is to move along, jumping into trees, avoiding various wild animals, collecting stars and amulets and finally fighting the level bad-guy at the end. (This varies between jumping ...
...this affects your chances against the end of level bad guy.) Most of the levels are very similar with a combination of trees to jump, water to avoid etc. The only real difference being that it gets more difficult to navigate to the end of the level as the jumps get trickier and there are more wild animals to avoid. The animation, sound and graphics. The animation of the enemies and your character are excellent. The characters move with realistic ...

The Title That Got Away From This (Formula) One

Advantages: The challenge mode, battery backup, car damage, link-up?
Disadvantages: Slowdown, inferior challenge mode.

...is a similarly titled game, F1 World Grand Prix (note the lack of hyphen makes all the difference) available for the Dreamcast, PlayStation and PC. I've played the PlayStation version which I thought was awful (2/5). Take care when dealing with the F1 game naming circus. Yes I messed up the Ciao product suggestion! ** Jacques Villeneuve does not appear on a number of games around that time including this one because of his contract with the FOCA ...

Review of F1 World Grand Prix (Game Boy)

Pokemon - Gotta Catch 'Em All!

Advantages: Fun and addictive
Disadvantages: Poor Graphics and music

...is successful sequel to the Pokemon Blue and Red versions. However, unlike Pokemon Blue and Red which were the start of the Pokemon franchise and inspired the future series, Pokemon Yellow was inspired by the series. So anyone familiar with the original generation of the Pokemon series will understand what I mean. You will be able to pick up that many of the characters and Pokemon have changed there appearance to match the animation and most notably ...
...Unlike the other Pokemon games you do not have the option of choosing your starter Pokemon. You will be required to keep a Pikachu Prof. Oak has just caught and keep him happy. Although sounding rather unfair initially, seen as though you may want a Squirtle for instance, it offers a couple advantages. You are able to collect the regular starter Pokemon rather early, once again following the series, but they do tend to be at a much lower level. ...

Review of Pokemon Yellow (Game Boy)

Old, Addictive but still Very Good

Advantages: 151 pokemon to chose from or collect, Long storyline keeping you occupied for a long time :)
Disadvantages: Sound and music is basic, and graphics are square.

...the attraction of levelling my pokemon and defating gym leaders. The grapics isnt too good, but when you got great gameplay and nearly everything is interactive the graphics doesnt ave to be excellent. In my opinion the only thing i do not like is the fight scenes and how the pokemon move rather madly. I have enjoyed hours of gameplay on this and completed it about 6 times never with the same pokemon, got 151 to chose from making there so many paths ...
