Advantages: Great graphics and longevity. Online capabilities are excelent. A very fun game. Disadvantages: Battling gets monotonous after a while; Not worth getting if you have Diamond/Pearl already
For any fan of the pokemon series, Pokemon Platinum is an amazing and brilliant game to own. This game is the third installment to the games Pokemon Diamond and Pearl and has many more features. The storyline is similar to the other two games and to every other pokemon game which is to fight through a building filled with trainers from an evil organisation. The battles here are monotonous and not very difficult to win. This aside, the game is brilliant in terms of gameplay with many pokemon to catch and a lot of legendary pokemon to keep you busy trying to get them. Even after the game is beaten there is a lot to do, train pokemon, catch them all, battle with friends, it could never end.
The graphics of this game are stunning. The Nintendo DS' 3D capabilities are really put to good use everywhere in the game and for a handheld game ...
Advantages: Longevity, fun, depth, better than previous installments and Diamond and Pearl Disadvantages: I can't put it down, maybe not for those already with Diamond or Pearl

As I just can't afford the prices of new books, my library must be loving me as I'm taking out more books than ever at the moment! I've mainly been getting my ideas from Amazon and the recommendations it gives to me based on what I've rated on there, and Platinum was one of these books. Again, I managed to get a copy from my library and I've finally finished the book so here is my review of it, at last!
Platinum focuses on the lives of 3 women all scorned by one man and how their lives were ruined by the evil Yuri Khordinsky. Frankie is a computer-whizz, but due to something that happened to her at home in South Africa, she's now a stewardess on board Pushkin, a yacht owned by rich businessman ...
