Pokemon Blue and Red Versions (GB) Reviews

Having both the red and the blue versions of the game I have found that they are the same except that they have different Pokemon to catch on them. I think this de-grades the value for money and if you havn't got a Universal Link Cable you cannot trade between Colour Game Boys and would have to go out and buy one! However I thought the ...  Read the complete review

Pokemon can be quite difficult when you first start but the further through you get the more the game reveals itself. It also starts to get easier. The object of the game is to collect all eight gym badges by battling pokemon trainers. Then you must try to get the ability to do things such as surf, fly, dig and flash to proceed to ...  Read the complete review

Pokemon is the biggest thing since sliced bread but i have found that the games pokemon red and blue can be, well boring. Sure they are good fun to start off with but i found that i just started going around in circles. Thus seeing all the same things again. Pokemon will just go into the past just like poggs, yoyos and footie stickers. I ...  Read the complete review

This is one of the most original games ever invented, its like a combination between the magic gathering cards and Zelda on the game boy. You play a boy who is trying to become a pokemon master. You travel across this world looking for pokemon and trying to catch them by using poke balls. At the start you are given a pokemon by proffeseur oak, ...  Read the complete review

The graphics are poor, like most game boy games, the sound gets so irrating that my gane is always turned down and the game is just too easy. I admit it is fun to fight your friends (or enemies) or trade the get the elusive few, but it is not that great a game. The game, surprisingly, is one of the best games to grace the 8bit screen. I would ...  Read the complete review

When I first heard of Pokemon I thought - Oh no!! Not another bad cartoon/battle crossover. Although this game has not changed my mind, it realy is quite a good game. You catch, train and fight your Pokemon till you are strong enough to complete the game. It does get a bit boring once you have completed it but it is still quite good. I would ...  Read the complete review

Pokemon IS the best game in the universe. Me and my friends have played this game for 200 hrs or more if you own a gameboy that means you own pokemon. An essential, very original and very addictive it is a master piece of gaming history (i hate the cards though) oh i just looove evolving pokemon. Any one who does not own pokemon should be shot. it ...  Read the complete review

red and blue are quite simply merchandising... squeezing every last drop of money out of the pokemon phenomena. This is the basic story of the game: James Lindley wrote: "Both Pokémon Red and Blue have to be the best games for the GameBoy and the most addictive games around today.

Both Pokémon Red and Blue have to be the best games for the GameBoy and the most addictive games around today. Your character is Ash from Pallet Town who leaves home to become a Pokémon master. You do this by catching wild Pokémon and then once they are caught you fight them in battles to improve them. On your journey around the world you come ...  Read the complete review

This could well be the most addictive game ever. You play Ash, and the aim of the game is to build up a collection of Pocket Monsters or Pokemon to take on the best trainers around. Once you have caught a monster you build up it's stats by fighting other monsters. It's an RPG at heart, but with a collecting twist. Quite simply once ...  Read the complete review

This game has probably done more for the sales of AAA batteries than the Sony Walkman and its many copies. For anyone who doesn't know the game, you must capture 150 different creatures as you walk around a landscape. You then train your captured creatures by engaging in fights with other Pokemon, either owned by computer-controlled ...  Read the complete review
