Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green (GBA)

...Pokemon. A worldwide obsession, the Pokemon games allow you the chance to become a 'Pokemon' trainer. You must travel across the virtual world, catching, training and battling Pokemon as you do so. There have been many, many Pokemon games spanning across all of Nintendo's systems from the Game Boy onwards - But this time I will be reviewing Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen, a remake of the original Red and Blue games. I should start by mentioning that ...
...if you want a certain Pokemon that isn't available on your version, you'll have to trade with a friend who has the other version, etc etc. As the games are practically identical there isn't really much point in buying both - it's much more fun to just find a friend that has the opposing one. The gameplay on Pokemon games is very different to most in that it really is up to the player. Though the aim of the game is to collect all of the gym badges, ...

Review of Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green (GBA)

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 ...
...order to chart how many Pokemon species there are in the world. 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 ...

Review of Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green (GBA)

...who are new to the Pokemon world. Those who are familiar with previous Pokemon games can skip the history lesson and go straight to the review if they wish. Introduction - The begining...... "Pokemon" (translated into english as "Pocket Monsters"), are creatures which look very much like mutated animals. In this fantasy world, Pokemon and humans live together in harmony. Some people play with pokemon, whilst some people, called trainers, train them ...
...Nintendo Gameboy. These were called Pokemon Blue and Red and like in the TV show the plot is similar, a young 10 year old boy begins his journey to become the "Pokemon Master" of the world, and on his way has many exciting adventures. The games were the biggest success Nintendo ever had since it first created Mario. Following this success Nintendo released 3 further games, Pokemon Yellow, Silver and Gold. Pokemon Silver and Gold introduced an additional ...

Review of Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green (GBA)

...the classic remake =) of pokemon Red and Blue. They were the first original hand held pokemon games and I enjoyed playing them very much to an extent where I would fall asleep in the classroom after staying up all night and get in trouble lol Pokemon was the 'in' thing back in the day. Pokemon Fire Red is a re-make of pokemon Red, with many imporvements including updated graphics, pokemon from the Johto and Hoenn regions to capture, The wireless ...
...should be noted that most Pokemon Fire Red releases today don't include the wireless communicator). Other features include improved sound, longer gameplay ( Once youve beaten the Elite 4 you can travel to the Sevii Islands) and a more detailed story line that will have you hooked from the moment you start playing. I paid £29.99 at Argos for this game, Way back in 2005 but you can possibly get it cheaper today on websites such as Ebay or Amazon. Some ...

Review of Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green (GBA)

Back in the day, when Pokemon Red and Blue came out, I had the Red and my best friend, the Blue. I remember it all now, phoning her up to tell her i'd caught a certain rare pokemon and i'll trade it her later for her 'dex but she must give it back! So serious back then :-P So now, 10 years later, I got wind that they had 'remade' them for the GBA. What a nice suprise to act like an 11 year old again and rush off and buy it, I even roped a friend ...
...extras still! Different moves for the Pokemon to learn, they can hold an array of items, and there are islands to explore! It was nice, reliving my experiences from back then, but the extras also kept it fresh. I don't know why I'm talking in past-tense, I'm still playing! ...
