User Rating: 10 | Pocket Monsters Emerald GBA
Some of you are saying, so what the heck? It's just a remake of Ruby and Sapphire, which I've played, and I don't need this. You're wrong. Okay, so I got this game a few weeks after I got my GBA, and I instantly liked it. Even the first lame battle against the Zigzagoon seemed exciting, as I had no other game like a Pokemon game. Afterwards, it was just fun collecting badges and battling trainers, Fighting off Team Aqua and Team Magma. I discovered a game like no other when I played this. Now for the basics: The graphics aren't in the least bit crappy, and some of the Pokemon animations are cool. The gameplay is not as active, but it still keeps you very involved. Even though it was just a game, I found myself cheering for my Pokemon. I like the compositions, but some of the attack sounds are just annoying. This may be an expensive game, but it is well worth its value, as it contains hours of fun. Anyways, I was a little dissapointed after I beat the Elite Four and it said "The End". But, one advantage to Pokemon games is that even after you beat them, there's still more stuff to do. Now, I have completed the Hoenn Pokedex, and many other things, bu I still usually can't go a day where I feel like playing video games without playing my Emerald. This game, in the near future will be acknowledged for its greatness, and named a classic. Anyways, for all you people who don't have this game, YOU HAVE TO GET IT! Trust me on this one, its an instant classic, perfect from the very beginning to the very end.
