THE GOOD: Many new Pokemon adds a little more fun to the game when you find a new one and attempt to capture it. The story line is alright but doesn't match up to the story lines of other games such as Harvest Moon. The graphics are good compared to versions such as Blue,Red and Yellow. The many new features such as running shoes and the Premier Ball (Even more balls have been added) have a positive effect on the gaming experience. Creativity in the gyms and landscape and top notch graphics encaptures and satisfies Pokemon addicts and the casual Pokemon fan. The new features on the bicycle (Now you have the choice of two!) adds something. The ability to trade between Fire Red and Leaf green adds another layer of depth to interaction with fellow players. The addition of the Pokenav (As seen on the television series) gives you access to you're map and how many ribbons won in Pokemon contests and other achievements such as an addition to the...
THE GOOD: Great Graphic Introduction of Berries New 2 v 2 Battles Contests New Pokemon Fairly Good Story Line A New Evil Team Battle Tower
THE BAD: Few Pokemon From Older Versions to Catch Internal Game Problems No Day/Night Some Confusing Parts of the Game
SUMMARY: Pokemon Ruby is a great overall game, but is probably worse then the previous generation, besides its graphics. Like the previous games Ruby has its own region, which is Hoenn, and there are 8 Gyms, The Evil Team(Magma), the Elite Four, The Champion and your rival to beat.
Some new improvements from the old games include contests, which are not easy and take some practice. These contests make the game last a bit longer, and there are rewards for beating them. Berries are used to make Pokemon compete better in these contests and blending berries with your friends to make poke-blocks and then versing them in contests is a...
THE GOOD: •Excellent Graphics •Choice of Gender •Built in game clock •Beauty Contests •Many hours of game play •2 on 2 battles •Many berries
THE BAD: •Very challenging at some points •Annoying music •Not many Pokemon from older versions •Internal game problems
SUMMARY: Pokemon Ruby is a great game overall. The game takes place in the Hoenn region where there are many new things to do. In the Hoenn region, there are 8 Gym leaders to fight and defeat, just like the previous games.
In addition to collecting all 8 Gym badges, Nintendo has included Beauty Contests. There are many new additions to Pokemon Ruby that trainers have not seen in any Pokemon game before. New kinds of berries growing on trees, the berry blender and even 2 on 2 Pokemon battles.
This game revolutionizes Pokemon games like no other Pokemon game has before.
THE GOOD: -Lots of new Pokemon
-Much better graphics than the older versions
-Catchy music
-2 on 2 battles
-Beauty contests
-lots of random events and an ok plot line
-more legendary pokemon then the last games
THE BAD: -Like most of the other pokemon games, after you beat the elite four, there's not much to do
-They took out a lot of the pokemon from the older versions
-The game can get a little too frusturating at times with their puzzles
SUMMARY: This game can only be described in one word in my opinion: interesting. This game has lots of stuff to do and it will most certainly take hours over hours to see all of the stuff this game has in store for you. There's lots of places to travel to, and their atmosphere of the game is pretty cool. The places you go are fun to explore in, from a volcano to the desert, and even under the sea. There's also a lot of new things to do such as...
THE GOOD: - More pokemon - Longer story than the others - 2 on 2 battles - Cool moves - Nice Graphics compared to the previous pkmn games - You can continue after the game itself is over - You cant easily breeze through it - You can capture Groudon
THE BAD: The game is still too traditional and it lacks being unique in its own way. Limit to catchable pokemon as usual.
SUMMARY: Overall, Ruby is a solid game. Just like the other past pokemon games, the entire goal of the game is to defeat the Elite 4 and become a ultimate pokemon master. Can it get any more traditional than that? No, it cant. Thats one bad thing that happens with this game because its mostly the same thing, which definitely brings down the overall quality of the game.
But look past that and you'll see a beautiful game with lots of things to do, and a lot of fun attached to it. The goal of the game, as stated before, is to become a pokemon master, and...
THE GOOD: 2 on 2 battles. More Poke'mon thingies. Longer.
THE BAD: After beating the Elite 4, there's barely anything to do. It's quite repetitive. Not all the Poke'mons are there. Uhhh, the move they use does the same damage all the time.
SUMMARY: Lastability: 7/10. God, you should see how hard the Elite 4 are. Also catching the Legendaries can be hard dagnammit. Graphics: 7/10. Hmmm, that's kinda the only other thing I liked about the game, but it's stillll boring. Sound: 3/10. If I ever hear one more Poke'mon entry sound, I'm gonna bust my SP apart. Seriously, they try to pop your ears out. Gameplay: 5/10. Well, it's simple. You walk around, catch Poke'mons and battle trainers and Gym Leaders, which I consider dull and repetitive. Overall: 2.7/5.0 Doing the same thing for like the 7th/8th installment is just plain rude.
THE GOOD: The good features of this game include: Two-on-two battles Brand new pokemon New types of pokemon. Specific things I.E. Team magma Groudon Team aqua being the allies.
THE BAD: The bad features are: Some of the pokemon seem ridiculas It can be a bit puzzling
SUMMARY: The graphics onthis game are amazing and so is the sound track. The game will blow you away fromstartto end as you begin your journey through the world of hoenn. You will also battle against team magma, wich is specific to ruby. You can also choose to be a female or male, a downside to the game is there is no night and day. The clock changes to am or pm but it doesnt change night or day.Puzzles may get annoying at times but it just adds to the fun with you will get from this game. I would recomend you buy this game and get its equal saphire.
THE GOOD: the graphics are really good,the sound is good(the effects),lots of Pokemon to collect,lots of items to use also and it can be sort of challenging.
THE BAD: it is just another Pokemon game with new characters,the action is so repititive,it is for a younger audience affter all.
SUMMARY: Hey guys and girls! Just playing Pokemon. Now i know what youre thinking"Another Pokemon game?" Lets start of with the good.The graphics and sound are really well done! But this game is so repititive all you do is battle...run...catch...run...you get my point. It is fun for a while. But this game is so short and EASY!!!You will probably beat it in maybe a sitting or two. Overall i will recomend this game to Pokemon freaks out their but just be warned it is for a young audience therefor it is pretty easy.
Pokémon Ruby & Sapphire, the third installment in Nintendo's extremely successful Pocket Monsters series.
Does it live up to the hype? Let's find out!
Setting
Even many of us who preferred pokémon not for its story, but for its gameplay, like to see a good believable story along the way. Ruby & Sapphire deliver much more than expected in this category...
Atmosphere
The first and most important part of its setting is the Atmosphere. By that I mean how real the game feels. Well, this game certainly delivers on that more than the previous games did... NPCs react to events; if a cataclysm has occured, they AIN'T GONNA BE WALKING OUTSIDE LIKE NINNIES. And their doors'll be bolted shut too.
Towns are no longer restricted to always having a gym and at most 2 houses. The World Map is sprawling, and you'll constantly find yourself revisiting certain cities - I actually found it fun to do so, rather than FLY around, for once - and ignoring...
THE GOOD: * Great graphics * Great story * Pokemon
THE BAD: * Way to many battles * To many caves/forests
SUMMARY: If you like Pokemon you should play Pokemon Ruby because, this is the best Pokemon game ever! I would recommend this game because: In my opinion, it has the best GBA graphics ever. You don't just fight wild Pokemon, but trainers and Gym Leaders. You collect gym badges. You pick if you’re a boy or a girl. You also collect and trade Pokemon. You can bye and sell items. There are two-on-two battles, and regular battles. You can use a game link cable to battle with a friend. You can have a secret base, and you can decorate it! This game has weather conditions like rain and sunshine. I think anybody can enjoy this game. This game is Rated E for everyone.
