Alex Rider : Storm Breaker GBA version

Advantages: Story(only for the fans of Alex Rider)
Disadvantages: Lenghty, not so good graphics, same boring things to be done over and over again.

...give it a try. I havent played the game on the Game Boy Advance, but I have a computer version of it called Visual Boy Advance, hence I just download all the games of GBA and play them on the computer. I had read the book first, loved it, watched the movie, loved it, hence I downloaded the game as well, didnt love it that much. The game isnt exactly that tough to play, but you'll get used to it. In terms of graphics, its not that great, its not even equal to the clarity of Harry Potter games. The sound is only enjoyable as you play the game, but the game is almost endless, especially to those who dont even know who Alex Rider is. As in terms of difficulty, its fairly easy to master, just that you're supposed to do the same things over and over again. So I just want to end by saying that this product should not be bought by anyone who...

Review of Alex Rider: Stormbreaker (GBA)

GBA Advances to another level

Advantages: Longeivity, Nice Graphics, Pure Gameplay
Disadvantages: The hours you'll waste on it

.... THey also show the battle scenes, which get boring after a while, but they can be turned off. The sound is quite good, best thru a pair of headphones. Playability and gameplay is up there with Tetris, this game will also last you ages. Overall, this game will last you ages, it is gaming excellence, part with your cash and go get the GBA's most original and addictive game. S...

Review of Advance Wars (GBA)

Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire-best GBA's RPG game

Advantages: very detailed and colorful
Disadvantages: somewhat difficult/complex

...I have played pokemon's GBA games long long time ago, since the version of red/blue and then yellow followed by crystal/gold and now it's sapphire/ruby. All of them are kind of RPG games-role playing games, begin with main character, can be a boy or a girl. Main character is named by you and you will control him/ her through our the game. In this version-Ruby/Sapphire, after chosing your character, you will then be introduced all the instructions about the game and introduction about the game's world( It's different from our world though^^) by a professor a called Birch who is studying about Pokemon(pocket monster). Afterward, you'll have to face a difficult situation, chosing one of three Pokemon in three Pokeball to rescue the professor from wild-dog Pokemon named Poochyena.Those three are Treeko, Mudkip, Torchic which comes from three...

Review of Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire (GBA)

... GBA ...

Advantages: Cheap, good range of games, second hand games readily available cheaply, good battery_life, backward compatibility
Disadvantages: Not hi-tech these days, can be tricky getting the screen in the right position

...on Amazon for about ?65 new, though availability of the GBA new will no doubt reduce as Nintendo try to promote their newer models. I got mine (er? my wife's, I mean? of course?) second hand for ?60 including 3 games (Mario Kart Super Circuit, Road to Westlemania - well it was thrown in for free, I didn't actually want it - and the Gameboy Colour version of Super Mario Bros). Which leads me to another two pros? 1 - Backward compatibility - if you have a load of Gameboy / Gameboy colour games already you don't need to throw them away - you can still play them on GBA. They won't be enhanced in any way of course but you can still play them. 2 - There's a thriving second-hand game market out there for GBA, which is just as well since new games range from about ?15-?35, which I think is a bit steep for a handheld game. Multiplayer option...

Review of Nintendo GameBoy Advance

Mario returns to the GBA

Advantages: Great graphics, Wario, fantastic racing sim
Disadvantages: Few

...Why did you buy your Gameboy Advance? Was it to look cool? Was it because it looked, in the words of Jamie Oliver “Pukka” or was it because you wanted to play the best games? Well, if you wanted to look cool, go and buy some new clothes and listen to hip hop (because it is modern day cool), if you wanted it because it looked like a Jamie Oliver word, get a life. BUT, if you wanted it for great games, you sure have made a great investment. Speaking of great games and great investments- Mario Kart. A super GBA game and a fantastic investment. You can’t go wrong in buying this, that is if you haven’t already used your brain and bought it. Let’s take a closer look. Mario Kart Advance is just basically an update of a extremely popular SNES version. All your favourite Nintendo stars are here: Wario...

Review of Mario Kart Super Circuit (GBA)

sex borism

Advantages: um...
Disadvantages: pretty much everything

...Another book emerging from my suitcase post-holiday. Only this one I really wish I hadn't taken with me. It jumped into my hand in the half asleep tour around the airport bookshop, I'd read one of his previous novels, and though it was dubious in places, decided I might as well give a second one a whirl. So it was that 'Platform' by Houellebecq came along to Egypt with me. For those of you who spend less time in bookshops than I do, Michel Houellebecq is a contemporary French novelist. His books have half naked ladies on the covers. This perhaps was reason enough not to be reading it in my strongly Islamic Uncle's house. Unwisely, when my younger cousin asked if he could read some of my books, I assured him he could pick whatever he liked from the pile. He chose 'Platform', which I had not yet read... When I came to read it myself...

Review of Platform - Michel Houellebecq

The Shape Of Things To Come?

Advantages: Bangers throughout
Disadvantages: Nothing specific

...?The Platform? was released in 2000 and was the debut album from Dilated Peoples, a West Coast Hip Hop crew consisting of Evidence, Rakaa and DJ Babu. The LA act were seen to follow on form the same sort of direction that Jurassic 5 and Tha Alkaholiks pushed on in LA specifically as they come with an esacpe from the Gangsta Rap that the Hi Hop of the area was known for (and had been competed with solely by Oakland acts prior to this when The Pharcyde, Souls Of Mischief and Digital underground had before through the nineties. 1. ?So May I Introduce To You?(Intro) 2. ?The Platform? After having DJ Babu cut things up on the turntables, you see that they finally get into things here and show what direction they will take the music with this titular track tot he release and it find that Babu comes with even more of the DJ premier-esque DJ...

Review of Platform, The [PA] - Dilated Peoples

Platform perfect?

Advantages: Bright, crisp graphics, entertaining gameplay and massive longevity. Multiplayer function.
Disadvantages: It is rare I say this, but I can find none!

...Super Mario 64DS is a conversion of an old N64 classic. As a cutesy platform game it is an ideal conversion for the DS. With its simple controls, dual screen and wireless multiplayer possibilities the DS is ideally suited to this style of game and perhaps this is why Super Mario 64DS is by far the biggest selling DS game currently available. As with all platform games there is little in the way of plot. The old adage of "princess goes AWOL" familiar to all Mario fans and indeed generic in all platform games is repeated here as the evil Bowser has taken her hostage. However, a clever twist is that Mario, his brother Luigi and an unlikely ally in the evil Wario have been captured and are trapped in the princesses castle. It is up to Mario's pet dinosaur Yoshi to release them so they can combine forces and defeat Bowser, saving...

Review of Super Mario 64 DS (Nintendo DS)

A platform to success.

Advantages: Fast trading, reasonable charges, good phone help.
Disadvantages: Only display mid price in their portfolio pages

...site where I have an account to monitor prices and to do research A quick point on quoted prices. The bid, offer and mid prices quoted are not necessarily what you will get/pay for share trades. Market conditions at the time of the deal can vary these. Also the size of your trade will impact on the price you pay/receive. How much? For normal buy/sell transactions you will pay £9.95 plus the Government imposed stamp duty. This seems to be an average price with some trading platforms charging more, some less. To me, going for the cheapest transaction charges is not necessarily the only consideration, as less than quick transaction times could potentially cost you a lot more than the couple of quid you might save on the transaction charge. Be aware that there may be a higher charge for phone trades, although if...
