A completely horrible game

Advantages: Good characters.
Disadvantages: Bad everything else.

Marvel: Ultimate Alliance. The title sounds really good and hearing what it was about, which was about taking control of numerous of your favourite hero characters from the Marvel collection and then battling out with the classic villains. Sounds rather fun, but let me tell you, it’s not. Well at least not from the GBA view, I have not experienced the other versions, but I don’t really want to having experienced this. This is possibly the worst game ...
...The story itself is very dull and boring, it is to do with the masters of evil and plotting explosions, the typical cartoon hero game scenario. However this one hasn’t really been thought about much and comes across as very boring and the cut scenes are bad as well, making you skip them after a while. The narrator / guide is very annoying as well and doesn’t seem to want to let you get on with the game at times. It is very much of a start and stop ...

Slow-Pokemon Game

Advantages: Auto-mapping, random dungeons
Disadvantages: Awkward item management, poor speed-up function

...personality quiz to determine which Pokemon the player is - the story being how did this change happen? - and then you get to pick a team mate whom to form a rescue team with.

However, the slow interface meant I won't be hasty to return to further play the game. ...

Gotta catch them all!

This is one of the video games for the Game Boy Advance. Pokémon games are role playing games (RPGS) and are developed by Nintendo.

...the way you will come across the bad guys: Team Magma and Team Aqua who are both trying to destroy the world. Aqua are going to do this with a legendary water Pokémon while Magma using a fire Pokémon. The game also adds lots of new Pokémon so your quest to catch them all will become a little bit harder.

Review of Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire (GBA)

Pokemon Goes Old School.

Advantages: Great remake, fun gameplay, over 250 different Pokemon, addictive
Disadvantages: Never going to catch 'em all.

Pokemon is a worldwide smash hit. And whilst many people think it has gone out of style there is still a huge cult following in Japan, the U.S.A and a suprisingly healthy Pokemon community throughout Europe, being especially popular with youngsters and RPG fans alike. This game has included wireless adapters for the GameBoy Advance so that players can trade and battle without the use of a lead, making this game very good value for money. The aim ...

It is also the player's aim to train a team of six Pokemon to high levels in order to beat other Pokemon "Trainers" and "Gym Leaders (stronger trainers) and eventually the "Elite Four" which serve as the main bosses of the game. Along the way the player makes new friends and rivals, including frequent battles with your own rival which you meet at the start at the game, and the evil "Team ...
