    A game unlike any other.

    The story of Ico goes something like this. Ico, a boy born with horns is brought to a castle by some men to be imprisoned against his will as it is said that children born with horns will cause great disaster. An earthqu... Read Full Review

    Great, but doesn't live up to the original.

    Final Fantasy Tactics Advance

    Great, but doesn't live up to the original.

    Final Fantasy Tactics Advance was one of my most highly anticipated games before its release. Seeing as Final Fantasy Tactics was one of my favorites on the original Playstation, I just had to play this game. Well I p... Read Full Review

    Under-rated.

    Digimon World

    This game's actually pretty under-rated. I spent hours upon hours training up my Digimon to be the best. It really was fun truthfully. Although some graphical issues mar the experience, not to mention you don't really kn... Read Full Review

    Sora, Donald and Goofy are back. Who are these new foes they face? Can they find the king and Riku?

    Finally, the 2nd instalment is here. After spending many nights on Kingdom Hearts II, I come with a verdict. This game is splendid. The story picks up after the events of Chains Of Memories for the GBA. Now if you did... Read Full Review

    Not as good as Up Your Arsenal. But it's still a great game.

    I have to say Deadlocked continues to hold the Ratchet & Clank series with such high quality. Absolutely loved Up Your Arsenal, here in Deadlocked though gameplay elements seem to have been cut back. You don't have Clank... Read Full Review

    Onimusha: Warlords

    It's okay, nothing special.

    Onimusha's nothing special really. I'll just keep this short. It's a hack & slash game. The gameplay mechanics are simple and easy to grasp. You can't jump or do anything flashy like in Capcom's other franchise, Devil Ma... Read Full Review

    Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories

    An okay GBA game that's essential for bridging the stories between Kingdom Hearts and the upcoming Kingdom Hearts II.

    First off, Chain Of Memories is pretty compelling when it comes to the storyline. That's good. You want that bit to drive you when you're playing the game so you don't get bored. The gameplay involves cards. I'm g... Read Full Review
