...or is it the only one. Since gettting this game I have been addicted. This is a man here who has everything (PC,PS2,DC and GBA). Since getting this I haven't touched any of them (well okay, just the PC otherwise I couldn't write this).

Advance Wars has one of the best balances in units of any strategy games I have ever played. There is no chance of a tank rush because by the time you have enough tanks, you opponent has sent their bombers in to wipe them out. Your hugely powerful battleships sink beneath the waves after one or two attacks from a sub. The nice thing with this game is that no matter how powerful your unit may be there is always a cheap unit that can beat it. Never before have I seen such a need for co-ordinated strikes.

And once your throw the CO's into the games it becomes almost subtle in it's complexity. All this on a Handheld? Amazing, it certainly beats most of the big boys which is something even Mario Kart cannot do...
