Editorial Review

The Game Boy platform (which includes the original unit, the Game Boy Pocket, and the Game Boy Color) came to market when most video game consoles had a life expectancy of just a few years. More than a decade later, the system is still going strong. How did the Game Boy successfully compete--and in some cases bury--an onslaught of faster, more powerful handheld and home console systems? Let us count the ways: affordability, a huge library of games that consistently made the most of the hardware's limitations, smart power management that extended battery life, and uncluttered controls. But perhaps it was the system's ultraportable design that allowed devotees to play video games around their schedule, making it the must-have system for kids and adults alike.

Now the Game Boy Advance (or GBA as people are already calling it) comes to us with power that would have been unthinkable back in the day. The portable's 32-bit RISC CPU runs circles around the former's 8-bit workhorse, allowing it to process program instructions much faster. What that means to everyday gamers is more intricate visuals, more simultaneous movement on the screen, and better sound. In fact, the often-annoying beeps and boops of old-school Game Boy titles are being replaced with digitized stereo sound. The extra processing muscle also means you can even network up to four Game Boy Advance units together, via the communication cable, for multiplayer fun off of one shared cartridge. Only two Game Boy Color units could link together, and each unit had to have its own copy of the game.

What's not being replaced, however, is the wide selection of Game Boy games. Because the Game Boy Advance system is backward-compatible, it will play its own line of colorful games--including such launch titles as Super Mario Advance, F-Zero: Maximum Velocity, Army Men Advance, High Heat Major League Baseball 2002, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, and Ready 2 Rumble Boxing: Round 2--as well as all of the monochrome and color games that have already been released for the previous Game Boy systems (nearly 500 in total). Players can view the older games in their smaller, originally square dimensions, or, with the touch of the shoulder button, expand the game to fit the GBA's larger screen. We tried enlarging the screen on a Game Boy Color edition of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 and found that Mr. Hawk was much easier to see.

When you first pick up the system, you'll be amazed at how lightweight it is. At fewer than 5 ounces and a little larger than a deck of playing cards, the system easily fits into a shirt pocket without any sag. The GBA's wider shape fits better into a wider range of hands. The former design too often pushed the left and right thumb knuckles together during gameplay. The new layout should be comfortable for all ages, and the center screen orientation makes it easy to see.

Game Boy Color owners will find the GBA's larger screen somewhat darker than they're used to, but that's because the screen is outfitted with antiglare technology. Like the old Game Boy Color, the color LCD is not backlit, so you need pretty good light to play by. Unlike that system, though, you won't be craning your neck and tilting the unit to see around the hot-spot reflection of the light bulb in your screen.

But you'll also notice the graphics. Sporting what's basically a redesigned SNES technology, you'll see things on the GBA that the big consoles do, such as scaling (making objects larger or smaller) and rotation effects--technological advances that will affect the look of everything from crossing a finish line to throwing a touchdown pass to crawling through a dungeon.

Some might argue that Nintendo could have tried to put even more power into this Game Boy Advance. After all, the 32-bit video game had its heyday more than five years ago. Perhaps, but after handling this new handheld, we're inclined to think that Nintendo wisely struck a balance between size, price, and power consumption. And considering how well the old 8-bit system weathered the decade's technological storms, we think the Game Boy Advance is here to stay, and we're glad. --Porter B. Hall

What Year do we Live in?!
The Advance has no backlight. You would think after Color, they would've put in a backlight. Visibility is horrible even in good lighting. Seriously, what decade do we live in? Get an SP, stay away from this one.

GBA = Portable Fun!
I bought this console on April/May with Yu-Gi-Oh! WorldWide Edition (SDD). This will entertain you for hours without knowing what time it is at all. You can use it anywhere. At home, at hopitals, during traveling, and lots more.The screen is a little more than 2 1/2 inches. The buttons look like the GCN only without the X, Y, Z, CAMERA, AND THE ANALOG feature. All you have are the A, B, SELECT, START L, R, and the Game Pad. You insert the game cartridge on the back of the console. I have to admit one thing, the graphics are not like the PS1, GCN, ETC. It only produces about 65,000 colors at the same time. But when you are bored on the go you won't mind the graphics. All you will care about is how much fun it is. The games are very expensive. They cost $30.00! With that you get 2 PSone games and they have better graphics. So make sure that if you are buying this console, read the online reviews before you buy the game. You will know if the game is good or not. Get this GBA today!

Great for everyone
I bought this for my 7 yr old daughter. She loves it! So do I. I haven't played any video games since the original Nintendo came out. The lighting isn't that great, but we got a light for it and she's gone through 3 pairs of batteries already. I also bought the a/c adapter. ... Read more

tizight
This game is one of the best games I have ever played for gameboy advance. It so exciting when you get 1st place in one of the races. when I first got the game I didn't think I would like it but when I started playing I really got into the game.

Fastpaced, but hasa few drawbccks.
I own this game and have raced all the tracks, but the problem i have is that, out of the five times i have beat the game, only 7 cars have opened up for racing. The game says there are 15 cars to chose from, but as you complete each race and come in first place, there are a few new cars that you have access to.My question is, how do you get the other cars to open? or are they really there? I have beat this game five times, and have gone back to each race to see ifthe other cars will be opened up, but no luck?

Very Good!!!!
I bought the GBA last August when it first came out with the original GT Advance. The game was excellent except the password part. Now I tried GT Advance 2 and it was fun!!! No more annoying passwords, to save you use the Battery Save feature. Theres also a new feature that lets you listen to your co-driver as he navigates you through tough spots on a trail. This game is cool!! ... Read more

Ecks vs Sever

Editorial Review

Taking the role of either Jonathan Ecks, hardened FBI agent, or Sever, trained NSA killer, players are immersed in a world of government conspiracy, high impact weapons, and first-person-shooter action. Players must survive more than 14 intense single-player missions through seven different locations, including warehouses, hotels, bars, and government headquarters. Gamers can immerse themselves in the dynamic story mode that changes based on whether they play as Ecks or Sever, or blast their way through high-adrenaline four-player action, including Deathmatch, Bomb Kit, Assassination, and Secure the Perimeter modes. A four-player multi-boot option is also available. Players master explosive weapons such as the Colt M16A2 rifle, Sig SSG 3000 sniper rifle, and the Heckler & Koch 40 mm grenade launcher. ...

GBA First-Person Shooting at it's finest!
Ecks Vs. Sever is the fifth best FPS for the GBA, and the 3rd released for the system.Ecks Vs. Sever was the first FPS I played for the GBA and was awed by how good the graphics and gameplay were.I had to keep reminding myself that I was, in fact, playing a Game Boy!Now 3 years later we have exactly a dozen FPSs available for the GBA and Ecks Vs. Sever still remains in my top 5!I enjoyed Ecks Vs. Sever more than it's sequel, Ballistic: Ecks Vs. Sever, because, all around, it's a better game.We have a great story, realistic weapons, real-word environments, and beautifully rendered enemy spirits.The game is awesome!

Amazing
I bought this game because I wanted a new experience from boring old "E" games. This game did the trick. It is awesome. Weapons are cool, graphics are great, the storyline is better than could have been hoped. I won't give it away, but I will say that the game pits the two main characters against each other, but they don't know they are members of a much larger plot. I love this game. I would advise it to just about anyone, especially FPS enthusiasts.

Ecks vs. Sever.......
Back when the Gameboy Advance first appeared, First-Person Shooters were released by the handfuls. Unfortunately, they've become something of a rarity these days. I think, in part, due to the fact that alot of them had experiences that were too similar and gamers grew tired of them. With the exception of Ice Nine and Serious Sam Advance later this year, we're probably going to continue to see a lack of them. Which is why I'd like to recommend Ecks vs. Sever. One of the more exceptional games that was released earlier on in the GBA's lifespan. The game centers itself around an FBI agent and a rogue NSA agent who are pitted against one another. Each must terminate the other in order to survive. Lil' do they know, though, that they are pawns in a much larger conspiracy. With 24 intense single-player missions, the gameplay changes depending on whom you choose to play as....making Ecks vs. Sever, virtually, two games in one. You can even link up with friends and play Assasination, Deathmatch and Bomb Kit...all the while playing with heavy-duty firepower such as the Grenade Launcher, Sniper Rifle, 'Jackhammer', or the M16a Rifle. The thing that impresses me the most about this game is how the AI reacts when you shoot at themand, if you shoot them, how they fall like a real person would if they were shot. I'll admit, it's the closest thing I've seen to 3-D without the game actually being 3-D.Sure, the graphics may not be all that great but who really cares when you're having fun?I wouldn't go so far as to call Ecks vs. Sever the closest thing to Goldeneye the GBA will ever see but I will say if you like games with that flavor or you like games with a conspiracy twist, Ecks vs. Sever will fit the order quite nicely. Too, for all you FPS vets, it offers a pretty decent challenge. Ecks vs. Sever is one exceptional FPS I highly recommend. ... Read more

Golden Sun
Average Customer Review:
Video Game (15 November, 2001)
list price: $29.99

Editorial Review

Golden Sun is the first original role-playing game for the GameBoy Advance to appear in the U.S. And despite perhaps a too-familiar story line,Golden Sun's jaw-dropping graphics, deep magic system, and uniquemultiplayer arena mode truly show that the Game Boy Advance is capable of aserious RPG.

Game developer Camelot (which also made the legendary Shining Force series forthe Sega Genesis, and, more recently,Mario Golf andMario Tennis for theNintendo 64) designed Golden Sun from the ground up to take advantage ofthe GBA's horsepower, and it shows. Sharp, vivid landscapes, detailed towns anddungeons, and awesome weather effects--it looks like a Super Nintendo game withsome extra zing squeezed onto a handheld system. Fans of Secret of Manaor Chrono Trigger will appreciate the feel of this game.

But the game's greatest strength is its magic system. Your characters each havetheir own latent psychic abilities based on one of the four elements of alchemy(earth, water, wind, and fire). The characters will be called upon to use theirindividual forms of telepathy and telekinesis to solve various puzzles in thegame. Also, you can collect Djinn (elemental spirits) and link them to yourcharacters. Not only can these Djinn be summoned in battle, they can alsobolster or hinder your characters' latent psychic abilities, give them specialattacks, and even change your characters' class. This system is similar toFinal Fantasy VIII's guardian system, though far more intuitive and easyto master.

Golden Sun employs a basic turn-based battle system, but it has amazingspell and fighting techniques that really take advantage of the GBA'stechnology. The game achieves a nice balance between flashy attacks and thebrevity of these same attacks--a lesson the makers of other RPGs should learn.Battles are beautifully and quickly fought, and don't overtax the gamer.

The game also has an addictive arena mode in which players can fight monstersthey've already encountered in the game. Players can also link up with anotherGBA (this feature requires another Golden Sun cartridge) and fightagainst another party. While it's not true a multiplayer option, it adds a greatreplay value to the game.

Golden Sun's weakest point, however, is its standard-issue story. Inessence: boy wakes up amidst disaster, meets stalwart friends, and rises to thechallenge to save the day (all while living up to the image of his dear departedfather). The story is a little stale, but the mechanics of the game transcendthis flaw and bring the gamer into a state of handheld nirvana. --BryanKarsh

Pros:

• Vivid graphics
• Deep, intuitive magic system
• Addictive multiplayer arena mode

Cons:

• A plot straight out of "RPG Story Lines 101"

Good...but too short
I know they're leaving room for a sequal, but I finished in about a week of real time, and I didn't play that much.Plus, since you're stuck in Lalivero after you beat the final battle, there's no replay value.Although it left me eagerly awaiting the second one, it also left me feeling a little cheated.However, overall, this is an awesome game.The storyline didn't bother me, because the number of sideplots the ever-altruistic Isaac and crew feel the need to indulge in kept things varied and fun.Overall, I highly recommend this game, but if you're getting it, buy Lost Age at the same time, or you'll be really mad when you finish.Me?I'm promising myself Lost Age as a reward after I finish Finals Week, and I'm counting the days.

Amazing game
This game is one of the best games I have ever played.

Music 4.5/5 pretty good music

Graphcs 5/5 amazing graphics the summons are awsome

GamePlay 5/5 very fun game

Overall 4.7/5

Overall

Any RPG loving GBA owner should buy this.
Created by a little know developer called Camelot (they made some Mario Golf and Mario Tennis games, as well as Shining Force before they joined Nintendo), Golden Sun is one of the GBA's more exceptional games.

Golden Sun has one major achievement it had for the GBA.It pushed the limits of the system in terms of graphics.While the visuals for wandering around seem rather easy for the system to create, the battles are a spectacular achievement.Even though the characters and enemies are shown as animated sprites.The sprites themselves are not much to write home about, but regardless they are quite convincing and suit the battle setup more than you might expect.The battle screen is sort of a "quasi-3D" setup.The background and sprites are 2D, but they are executed in such a manner that they look 3D.Not only that, battle effects, such as spells and simple attacks, add wonderfully to the setup.The only real problem I can see is that some spell effects slow down the framerates (how fast or smoothly it runs) noticably, but it's all handled so well that it doesn't even seem like a glitch, and out of sheer irony it adds to the effect of some of the spells.

The sound is a mixed bag.The music score part is excellent.Everything from the main menu music, to town themes, and the grand world map music is great both technically and melodically.If any songs do get on your nerves, they either won't last long or are done in such a way that you can tune them out while playing.Sound effects, however, are very standard.A lot of them are recycled so much that it's practically mind numbing.However, none of it seems completely out of place, and there isn't much that will hurt your ears, so that's something to be happy for.

The gameplay itself only has one real flaw in my opinion.The battles are too easy.With the exception of most of the boss battles, regular battles tend to be so easy that the thought of using the run option will never occur to you (they also go so quick that there's not really a time issue involved either).There's also an issue where, if you set all of your characters to attack one enemy and that enemy is destroyed, the characters that attack him later have their attack wasted.This really isn't too much of an issue, though, and Camelot was smart enough to make the character automatically defend if that should happen (which means damage to that character would be halved... though I think that only refers to physical damage).

The story has gotten a lot of bad press in my opinion.However, it should be noted that if you play this game, the story alone may persuade you to buy the next game, GS: The Lost Age (which is already out).While that's not particularly a bad thing, as the combination of the two stories is really awesome, just be aware of the extra expense that may cost for your wallet.Also, it should be noted that this game is a bit on the short side (roughly 20-25 hours), but that's still not much of an issue in my view (just so you know, the second game in the series is roughly 40-45 hours long, so that one is lengthier).

All in all, the game is quite fun.However, there are a few quirks that I mentioned above that may get on some people's nerves, so just know what you're getting into. ... Read more

Like Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, Tony Hawk 3 captures the look and feel of the big-console versions but transforms the concept into a third-person, mock 3-D game. This new incarnation keeps the original control scheme but brings in alternate career goals, new tricks (including the revert), and changing environments--they even include pedestrians--across seven global locations. Unlike the last game, however, this version allows players to link up for such multiplayer games as Trick Attack, Graffiti, HORSE, and Tag (one copy of the game per GBA unit and link cable is required). The roster of skaters features Tony Hawk, Elissa Steamer, Jamie Thomas, Rodney Mullen, Eric Koston, Chad Muska, Kareem Campbell, Steve Caballero, Andrew Reynolds, Rune Glifberg, Geoff Rowley, Bam Margera, and Bucky Lasek. ...

Excellent game!
In the best skating game on the gba, Ride as 13 top skateboarders, including Tony Hawk, as you pull off tons of tricks & combos in obstacle-filled environments. There are many different tricks so this isn't an easy game to master.
You can play in career mode, where you choose a character to do a certain amount of goals to beat the player's career, such as collecting the letters "S-K-A-T-E" scattered in each course. Once you complete a player's career, then try to complete all the goals to unlock another career slightly harder then the first one. Try to beat both careers on each player to unlock another course.
You can also play in free skate, which is just practicing. You can also play the tutorial where it teaches you the basic tricks.
You can also play 2 player mode, where you and a friend will link up and compete in several different events such as who can get the highest score.
The graphics and gameplay are great, and this game is tons of fun and filled with easy and challenging goals.

Trade?
this is a good game but you should borrow or rent it until you are should
but i will trade

Go Tony Hawk!
Okay, I'm going to try to explain this as calmly as possible. BUY THIS GAME!!!!!!!!! The levels are fun, the goals are challenging, but not impossible,(just the way I like em'!)the controls are easy to get used to,and the replay value is insane! I have at least 20 GBA games, but this is the topper! The only problem I have is the graphics. They're Not exactly great.

Gameplay: 5/5. There are 6 main levels of gameplay. Four are just goals, two are contests. There is one goal that confused me, in the suburbia level. WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD! It Was the find the secretTape. To do this, I thought that you had to get on top of the thin man's house. But you have to grind the house northeast of it. To do this, go into the northwest pool. Jump out of the North side, then grind the long red rail eastward. Jump constantly, or you'll lose your balance. Keep doing that. After a few seconds, you'll be grinding ona shed. Jump off it, grind the fence, and you'll have the secret tape! This next one had a much simpler Solution. Get a score of 300,000 in the LA level. To do this, simply grind the four trees near the beginning. You'll have the score in no time! Well, anyway, the gameplay is by far the best in any GBA game!

Replay Value: 5/5I've had this for almost a year, and I still play it nonstop! I'm not the least bit tired of it!

Controls: 5/5 When I first got this game, the controls were VERY difficult to get used to. It'll take some practice. But once you have it down pat, You'll agree that they are very comfortable.

Graphics: 2/5 Not much to say. They're horrible. I'll just leave it at that.

Like I said before, BUY THIS GAME! Despite the horrendus(I hope I spelled that right)graphics, you'll be in for endless hours of fun! ... Read more

Spider-Man: Mysterio's Menace is the first Spider-Man game to be featured on the Game Boy Advance platform. Set in New York, the game lets you assume the role of Spider-Man as you take on supervillain Mysterio and his illusory tricks. You must fight a slew of Mysterio's sinister conspirators and gadgetry to get to the bottom of the plot and free New York from Mysterio's mind-warping grip. Special attacks, multiple power-ups, suit upgrades, and old Spidey standbys (like wall crawling and webslinging) make playing as Spider-Man a fan's dream come true. ... Read more

This game was fantasctic
I got this game and it was great. But for people that are reading this who have a nintendo ds, listen up. If you put in the ds version of spiderman 2 while game boy advance wirsion of Mysterio's menace is in aswell, you will be able to unlock all of spidey's moves.

Spiderman Mysterio's Menace great game I recommend
Vicarious Visions and Activision , the greatgame companies who made Spiderman for thePlaystation and Dreamcast, once again teamup to make the successful "Spiderman Mysterio's
Menace" for the Gameboy Advance.

Out of all the portable consoles in history,the Gameboy Advance, has probably the bestlineup of games I've seen, and you can addthis game to that list.

------
Story
------

Peter Parker (Spiderman) is talking to hisgreat love Mary Jane, when he sees on the tv,that a great number of crimes are beingcommitted in New York.

Spiderman then must try to stop the criminalsand try to bring peace and safety toNew York City.Spiderman though will have his hands, as hemust fight a number of formidabble and familiarenemies that Spiderman fans will recognizne.
The lineup of enemies include "HammerHead", "Rhino", "Mysterio", and a gang machine gun happy gangsters and deadly ninjas.

Even making the game that more challengingis the fact that in several areas of the gameSpiderman must rescue a group of hostages.

Graphics 10:

Spiderman games have come a long way sincethe first Spiderman came out from ParkerBrothers for the Atari Systems.

From the Genesis system to Supernes, to Gameboy
Color, to the Gameboy Advance, to the Playstation, each Spiderman has constantlygotten better in the area of graphics.
The graphics in this game are gorgeous, wonderful 2d and 3d graphics are echoed throughout the game.

"Rhino", "Hammerhead" and others look likecomic book counterparts.There are really 3 great graphics area in the game, and they are done very well.First is the intro of the game which is excellently done with a nice blend of music.the intro looks extremely cool, because it looksvirtually an animation of the comic book.

The 2nd graphics area is stats screen. Thestats screen reveals in what area Spiderman is,how much webbing Spiderman has left, and otherdetails.

The 3rd area in the game are the missionand intermission screens.These scenes are all 2 dimensionally animated
in true color form and they look gorgeous on the screen.
Overall, I was not only suprised by the great
graphics for the game, but I was impressed.

Sound and Music: 7

The sound and music in Spiderman, just likethe graphics for the game are extremely good,in fact it was better than I expected!!!

Everything from Spiderman's "spider senses" to"Rhino" growl and killer attacks, all comewith their individual sounds.

Overall the sound in "Spiderman MysteriosMenace " is very well done.

The music is divided into different areas ofgame: The levels of the game, come with different tunes and soundtracks.

The stat screen in the game also comeswith it's own music.

The best music in the game, that I loved wasthe intro at the beginning, it mean it just really cool!! In fact, it had me jazzed upto play the game.

--------------
Control 7
------------

I was extremely satisfied with the controlsfor this game.

Unlike the Playstation and Dreamcast versions of Spiderman, which can get a bit frustratingthe control for "Spiderman Mysterio's Menace"is virtually perfect.

Wow!!!

Spiderman has a variety of moves, combos and
special abilities that can you do.

First is Spiderman's web slinging.

Simply by tapping the A button twice, Spidermancan swing from building to building with ease.You can also websling and attack enemies atthe same time!!!

This has many advantages of the game, asmany enemies are at angles, or high altitudesin the game.

Spiderman's combos, consists of a regular punch,
a superpunch, and a great uppercut. You also have a regular kicking, a sweeping kickand a great jump kick (which can you doas you are webslinging!!!!)

Pressing the Start Button reveals the statsscreen which reveals, the area Spiderman is, along with his web supply, the areas Spidermanhas completed, and the number of hostages
Spiderman has rescued.

Overall, I was very pleased with the controls.Activision and Vicarious Visions did a greatjob in this area.

-----------
Overall 9
------------

I gave "Spiderman Mysterio's Menace" a 10 because virtually all areas of the gamewere excellent done.

Activision has continually improved the Spiderman games that they done have done over years.There are also many challenging enemies in the game. I also like the fact, that game companies
included many of Spiderman's foes like"Hammerhead", "Mysterio", and "Rhino".

"Spiderman Mysterio's Menace" is just a greatgame, and I highly recommend the game toany Spiderman fan.

AWESOME!
This game is one of the best I've ever played.The gameplay is great, the graphics are amazing, and it is a game you can just pick up and play.The only thing I disliked was that I beat the whole game (and got all the power-ups) in less than 4 hours. ... Read more

Not cool
I myself am a die hard tekken fan, and i asked for this game for christmas one year. I was so happy, until i played it. The graphics are horrible for one thing (but what do u expect from GBA). Only 10 of the Characters are in it, but u can only play as 9 of them! They're Nina, Hwoarang, Paul, Gun-Jack, Law, Jin, Ling, King, and Lei, Hehiachi is the unplayable boss. If you are undecided, please DON'T BUY THIS GAME!!!!!!!!!!! thank u

Tekken Advance rocks!!
This game is really good. The graphics are good, the music is pretty good.One pet peeve I have; when you sidestep, the opponent misses you, but your view of him doesn't change (whereas in DOA3, you see your opponent's back).Also, it can get a little boring. You just fight the same people over again. Thankfully, you can change your strategy by studying moves in the practice room. Also, the music will repeat itself every minute or two, and some stages have the same music. However, these bad things on't really affect how awesome this game is. Over all, this game is great!

Great!!!!!!!!!!
