Golden Sun : My Most favourite game!!!!!!!

Advantages: Amazing story, amazing characters, graphics, puzzles etc.....
Disadvantages: A little lenghty, a little tough near the ending

...Golden Sun Overview Golden Sun, I must agree has been the best game that 'I' have ever played in my life till now. Its just amazing. I loved the whole conept and just loved the story. Its just too good. The way they have involved the fighting scenes, the encounters, the mystical creatures, and the characters is just really very commendable. Story It starts with you, Isaac (name can be changed before the gameplay), waking up and then realising that there is some weird earthquake taking place in your village. Later you find out thats it sorta like a volcanic eruption, taking in a very sacred mountain. This story deals with some of the people of the village having a very sacred and rare power called Psyenergy. This psyenergy helps them do different tasks...

Review of Golden Sun (GBA)

Golden Sun = Golden Game

Advantages: Nearly -Everything-
Disadvantages: Random battles and Sounds can get annoying, also long talk scenes.

...Golden Sun: The Lost Age (GBA) was a long awaited sequel to the smashing success that boosted standards for all handheld RPGs, Golden Sun. Golden Sun TLA is set after Golden Sun 1 (in Weyard), apart from you control Felix, seeing what happens after the splitting of Venus Lighthouse. Eventually later ingame you might up with Isaac's crew and use them for battles and extra Djiins. [Backround Information] In Golden Sun, Isaac and friends set off to stop Satouros and Menardi from lighting all four elemental lighthouses, or the world will end. They manage to light 2 of the lighthoues but end up getting killed. The lit Venus lighthouse causes and island (where Gemma, Sheeba, Felix, Krade and Alex just so happen to be) to drift away onto another continent. Golden Sun TLA follows Felix's story of lighting the lighthouses. [Characters...

Review of Golden Sun 2: The Lost Age (GBA)

A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY

Advantages: Content, Depth, Graphics, Longevity, Challenge
Disadvantages: Occasionally tedious. Sounds somewhat repetitive.

...Once I had been given a Gameboy Advance in the Summer for my Birthday, I knew pretty quickly I'd want to be playing an RPG (role playing game) of some description. Some searching found the title 'Golden Sun', meant little to me, I mean the only two RP's I'd come across before were the Zelda's and the various Final Fantasies! Golden Sun looked good, it had rave reviews, and apparently some of the best graphics to date on the 32 bit Gameboy. Trouble was, I couldn't locate it in the shops, and once I'd seen this game on the 'net, nothing else would do!! According to sources it had been released, just was very hard to come by, and so to Ebay I travelled, and promptly purchased a copy for a bargain £25.00 boxed and 'as new'! Golden Sun is a very traditional style of RPG. If you have never come across the genre before then suffice...

Review of Golden Sun (GBA)

The Golden Age of Gaming?

Advantages: Great Storyline, Cast and Visuals, Totally Engrossing
Disadvantages: Long conversations and lots of statistics parts may put some gamers off

...Sadly this is not a review of the local takeaway, but it is instead an assessment of an RPG for the Gameboy Advance. So all those expecting a review on Kung Po Chicken and Duck Lap Lap, all look away now.... Still here? Great. Because I'm about to detail to you one of the finest RPGs I've ever had the pleasure of playing. Golden Sun, as I've said is an RPG (or role-playing game for those unfamiliar with the terminology) made by a company called Camelot (No relation to the flawed Lottery company I can assure you! :)). The basis of the story is that Alchemy is the basis of all things in the world - in this case a world known as Weyard. Alchemy itself is split into the four elementals of Fire, Earth, Wind and Water with everything in the world being made up of a combination of these four things. Of these four elementals there are four...

Review of Golden Sun (GBA)

Golden Gaming

Advantages: beautiful graphics, excellent music, addictive gameplay
Disadvantages: it ends far too soon

...Any gamer worth their salt is bound to have heard of the illustrious Squaresoft - the creators of the (in my opinion) the much over hyped Final Fantasy series. Golden Sun, you may know, is nothing to do with Squaresoft - but Chrono Trigger was - and what a game it was. Never released in the UK - it was an old-style console RPG that simply blew my mind away. Fantastic game play, an engrossing story line, and a mammoth quest all equalled an unbeatable game. I have to admit I was very disappointed by Breath of Fire - the other RPG game on the GBA - its learning curve seemed to steep and it seemed I had to die a thousand deaths before I even got anywhere. The combat system was old and annoying and in the end, I took the game back within a week. Golden Sun is basically everything BoF was not. The game begins with a time old...

Review of Golden Sun (GBA)

Golden Sun is a golden game

Advantages: the best game I have on my GBA
Disadvantages: It took me 32 hours to complete it

...Price: £35 Players: 1-2 Developer: Camelot/Nintendo Publisher: Nintendo Golden Sun is definitely the best game I have on my GBA (and I have loads of games on my GBA including Super Mario Advance 2). It’s the first original RPG to grace Game Boy Advance and one of the most intricately designed and monumental Japanese RPG’s I’ve ever played. A large part of Golden Sun’s magic lies in the way the plot becomes the driving force that keeps you adventuring. You play as Isaac, a young alchemist who sets off to solve a small mystery that evolves magically while playing, becoming one of the most gripping and emotional fantasy sagas I’ve ever seen. The incredible visuals and soul-stirring soundtrack (you MUST use headphones while playing! Well that’s what I do) also help totally immerse you in...

Review of Golden Sun (GBA)

The Golden RPG

Advantages: Addictive, amazing graphics, good storline.
Disadvantages: Too hard in some parts

...Alchemy- the power to manipulate the building blocks of reality-Has been sealed away for generations. This ancient science has been hidden deep within Sol Sanctum and protected by the small village of Vale. Which lies at the foot of Mt Aleph, home to Sol Sanctum. Now however, the seal has been broken, and the Elemental stars, the jewels that channel the power of alchemy, have been stolen. Stories tell that the master of alchemy knows no limits to his power and can attain everything his heart desires. Using the four jewels, someone is trying to light the elemental lighthouses and release the power of alchemy upon the world of Weyard!? Golden Sun is a very traditional RPG. It has an amazing story line that will keep you occupied for hours. It has amazing graphics even though it?s on a hand held console. This is nothing like Pokemon...

Review of Golden Sun (GBA)

Golden sun

Advantages: cheap, smells so good
Disadvantages: none I can think of

...As I cannot afford to buy expensive perfumes with all the top brand names and fragrances, I believe I can still get the same quality of fragrances with body sprays. At their low prices and vast range you could easily afford to buy any type and try them out. Or alternatively you can take of the top of the bottle at a shop and smell it. If it takes your fancy then buy it. Some sprays maybe too much when you smell it, but once you spray it, it can become milder as it wears off. This spray on the other hand is not too over powering and stays at the same level throughout the day. This golden, metal bottle has a white spray nozzle. In this bottle, we have the perfumed body spray, which has the smell of sweets and honey, which can be a bit sickening, but this is the best body spray which I have bought before. This body spray also has...

Review of Revlon Charlie Gold Eau Fraiche Eau de Toilette Spray

Golden Opportunity

Advantages: Great graphics, story and addictiveness
Disadvantages: Difficult in many places

...GBA games don't come much harder than this, i'll tell you that. Golden Sun is an RPG, where you control Isaac, a young lad about to embark on an adventure(sounds familliar)to save the land(I think I've heard that somewhere). Even without originality, Golden Sun starts off with a gripping storyline and start to the Game: The volcano overlooking Isaacs town is errupting, and you have to help other towns folk escape as well as yourself. After this, your adventure begins, as you leave the town and enter a sprawling overworld, where random creatures attack you(a la Pokemon) and you have to fight the beast yourself or use wierd creatures called Dijin to fight back(again, inspired by Pokemon). Throughout the game, you meet and interact with people and let them into your party. It's an absolutely massive game, with a high difficulty level...

Review of Golden Sun (GBA)

Golden Sun; The Lost Age Rules the Roost

Advantages: Very kool graphics, very long gameplay, sleek sounds, great gameplay
Disadvantages: None

...The Lost Age I bought this game as soon as it came out, last year, after only just completing the magnificent GS1. This game is amazing, here's my review; Graphics: Stunning, this is the first GBA game whos graphics don't make me want to return the game after playing it for 2 minutes, the battle seens are nicely done. There are effects that are quite impressive for example, if you run, felix' coat flusters in the wind, if you stand behind a block of ice, you can see your distorted image on the screen, little things that make oyu proud of owning Golden Sun 2. Audio/Sound: The audio of battling can get on your nerves, but I'm not going to nag about that when everything is is beautiful. There's a different tune everywhere you go, the BGM in one town might be happy and cheerful, while in the other, sad and grey. Gameplay...
