Pokemon Blue and Red Versions (GB) Reviews

I have bought pokemon red and have found it pretty good and much like the Zelda games, enjoyable. I don’t regularly buy gameboy games (as of their such bad graphics), but for this I made an exception for this one. In the game you play a boy called Ash who is trying to become a pokemon masters (as you all know from the t.v series). ...  Read the complete review

Forget the terrible cartoon, the dreadful film and the crappy Taiwanese merchandise, this game is good. If you can see past all the periphery rubbish and live down playing a game that is aimed at kids, you won't be sorry. You take the role of Ash, a young boy, and you mission is to find and capture all 150 pokemon (151 if you count Mew, an ...  Read the complete review

Pikachu! Bulbasaur! Jigglypuff! All of these are really stupid names. Who the hell comes up with them?!!? Pokemon is the latest craze in the GameBoy world. It is all about Ash, a young Pokemon trainer who tries to become the best trainer in the world. Team Rocket make it difficult for him, but there is also another task which Ash must ...  Read the complete review

At first I wasn’t too fond of the childish idea of the game (I’d seen the TV series). But convinced by a friend I actually bought the blue version of this game. I was very sceptical when I started playing this game targeted at the young ones, until I caught my first pokemon. Now I’m the proud father of 119 pokemons and I check on ...  Read the complete review

By now you have allready got or played one of the several different versions so you will know that the aim of the game is to become a Pokemon Master. You can do this 2 ways: -Defeat the Pokemon league or -Collect all 150 Pokemon (there are 151 though) (the first option is easiest I think.) There are loads of variations of ...  Read the complete review

All the hype surrounding Pokemon is actually based on a genuinly good game. The Pokemon games present a top down 2D RPG world in some ways similar to the likes of the Gameboy Zelda game. Essentially Pokemon is a RPG the mission being to win the Pokemon league and collect all the Pokemon you can. Marketing aside (you need both games to get all the ...  Read the complete review

I think this game is a good laugh with some weird looking Pokemon and about 50 people who all look the same and have the same name. For small children this game develops their minds without them knowing it as they try to remember all 151 Pokemon names (which I admit to knowing) and learning new words such as evolve and de-evolve. The Pokemon are ...  Read the complete review

After playing this game for hours on end i can safley say that this game rules.Pokemon blue is the best, even though after at least 48hours i hadn't found all the pokemon but my charmeleon had evolved into charizard and i using a link had swopped sandshrew fof blastoise.I could go on forever talking about my game but i won't bore you i ...  Read the complete review

I think that Pokemon is a very good game, although it is getting a bit old now. I have got all 151 pokemon, the last 5 were very hard to get. You probably know, but the whole idea of pokemon is to be a pokemon master. Two ways: Complete the Pokemon League, in which you have to beat the Elite Four, who are Lorelei, Bruno, Agatha and Lance. ...  Read the complete review

What else can be said about this game except, amazing. This is a game which can be enjoyed by all ages, not just little kids. The idea of this game is to catch and train 150 Pokemon, some harder to catch than others, and then use your Pokemon in battles against other trainers - even your friends! This is another brillliant game for the Game ...  Read the complete review

Yes, everyone has heard of gay Pokemon now but is it actually any good? Well it depends who you are; if you are a young kid then probably you’ll love it. If however you are any older you will probably just wonder what all the fuss is about. The graphics are what you would expect from a Gameboy. The storyline is boring the game play is ...  Read the complete review

Well I dont hate this game but I most certainly fail to see what all the fuss is about.Isn't this game just a hype machine prying on young children's(and their parents most likely)pockets?? I have played the game often as my younger brother is a fan but personally find the game ANNOYING!!! The endless battles disrupt the flow of ...  Read the complete review

These are the two games that have spawned a multi million pound empire ranging from clothes to toilet roll. Yes, and why is there a mini empire? Most other games haven't got whole shops devoted to them, or theme parks. Why this game? Well, it's non-negotiable. These two games made history they're so good! The storyline - good, no. of ...  Read the complete review

Well i can`t okay. :0P Many hours spent playing this game have resulted in me collecting a grand total of 31 Pokemon...think i need some practice (or tips! - this is what comes of not reading Games Mags anymore). The most important thing of course is the fact I ENJOY playing the game. For those who`ve spent the last year asleep, the ...  Read the complete review

this is without a doubt the worst game i have ever played, and believe me i have played alot, whats the deal with walking around a little planet catching stupid mammals and then pitting them against each other in a competition which can only be described as unfair and cruel. whats the deal keeping fully grown adult creatures in so called ...  Read the complete review

The thing I like best about my gameboy color is the fact I can play Pokemon Blue. Considering it's a game for children and I'm 28 I guess it doesn't say much about me! But it's dead addictive and sufficiently challenging! I must say though that the ending is a bit disappointing, I reached it far too quickly and it ...  Read the complete review

The idea of this game is to fight Pokemon to make your Pokemon stronger. This will make them evolve into stronger Pokemon. You can also catch Pokemon that are in the wild. You can battle with your friends so the stronger your Pokemon become the more chance you have of beating your friends. This game is very addictive and takes after ...  Read the complete review

Well, I am 20 years old, and bought this game amid the hysteria surrounding it when I entered my local games store. And I have to say, what a great game. I have to say that I am a great fan of games that follow in the style of the Final Fantasy series and this one does that style of game a great deal of justice. The size of the games ...  Read the complete review

After all the bad publicity about Pokemon I would love to know what the fuss is about. As a mum of 3 perhaps I shouldn't be playing gameboy games but have all you parents who have nagged your children to get off that game only to be told "..but I'm in a battle!" ever tried it. In case you don't know the object is to ...  Read the complete review

The company Nintendo have wasted their money on this game. The game is very addictive the first time you play, but becomes less interesint the more you play. The graphics are basic, and need improvement, especially in fighting scenes. The storyline is fairly simple, and the gameplay is terrible. The sound and names also need to be ...  Read the complete review
