I leaned the hard way
This is a really fun game, and the graphics and sound are great... only problem is that is is not GBA SP compatible (I don't know about regular GBA). It loads fine and looks good, but because it works on a motion sensor chip, and GBC cards point down, and GBA SP cards point up, up is down and down is up, and right is left and left is right. You COULD learn to compensate for this, but what a pain!
Great Game!!
I got this game and it is GREAT! The tilt control is awesome and it is very straightforward. Ten stars!!!

Tilt N' Tumble - Continuous fun!
Kirby Tilt N' Tumble is now considered a bit of an "older" game now, but I decided to write this review up anyway, being the experienced gamer with this one game that I am.So, thanks for reading, and I hope this helps you. Read more

the most addicting game on the planet!
Dragon Warrior Monsters 2 series is by far the best RPG available.The play value alone makes up for the "primitive" graphics and sound. It never gets boring, it is far more satisfying than any of them "Blackjack" or "Tetris" cheapies played by old ladies on the bus to the nearest casino!
Dragon Warrior Monsters 2: Cobis Journey
Game is worth buying. Legend of Zelda Series is better.

A Disgrace to Harry Potter Games
I'm sorry but I really do not like this game. I got it hoping it would be even a little like its gamecube counterpart, but it wasn't. It was extremley confusing and I still have no clue how to do the spell things, even now. I have gotten stuck at Aragog and have no freaking idea how to get past him. And what are those blue rock things????? Everytime I got near one I'd have to fight an elf or something, which lowered my energy so I couldn't beat bosses. This game is so hard and so stupid I feel it's a disgrace to the other Harry Potter games, which were all very good. If you have another system, get this game for it, but if not, consider something else. DO NOT BUY THIS!!!!!!

great game
this was a fun game better then pokemon thats for sure i beated this game 100 times its so easy and fun i think you would like it too.

hello! get with it!!!
This is the best game I have ever played.If you like Pokemon Ruby or Saphire you will love this.You gain attacks and get levels to help you.The ice attack is the best.I would reccomend this for 8-12 year olds. ... Read more

Not for new users
My 5 year old daughter received a gameboy advanced with this game for her birthday.She tried playing it, after I read her the instructions but soon became frustrated.For a kid who has not had much exposure to video games this is not a good first game.I had a lot of fun with it but it does not "guide" the player, so you need to be able to read (and remember) the instructions.

Surprisingly good GBC fare
The fourth installment of the long running Alone in the Dark series makes it's GameBoy Color debut, and the results are surprising.For being an 8-bit GBC game, the graphics are awesome, even reminiscent of Konami's GBC version of Metal Gear Solid.Besides the great graphics and sound, the only glaring problem with the game is that it is incredibly easy to get lost in the game and the enemies and puzzles are taxing.Not to mention the game has virtually no replay value once you beat it, no matter how much of a survival horror fan you are.Despite that though, as far as the genre goes on the GBC, there is this game and Resident Evil Gaiden, and Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare is noticibly superior.All in all, if your still playing your GameBoy Color, this game is definitely worth checking out, and from the looks of things it's most certainly better than the upcoming movie.

Alone in the Dark New Nightmare for GBC Great game
Alone in the Dark The New Nightmare is based on successful, horror games by Infrogrames (which has been making games over 15 yrs). Alone in the Dark review
Alone in the Dark has awesome graphics(pre-rendered backgrounds) but the main character Edward could look better. He is comprised of only three colors, and sticks out from the background like a sore thumb, but enough about Edward. The game has awesome color rich environments, although the game lacks in sounds and music the gameplay and graphics make up for it. One other bad thing about this game would be the battle sequences, you cannot aim worth a darn and sometimes end up wasting alot of ammo, but... This GBC game overall is a awesome game, and I would recommend it to those who like survival horror. ... Read more

Great Game
I have played all the commander keen games, and I'm glad they made a new one. This was a very fun game, and commander keen fan's should try out this game.

I didn't know there was a Game Boy version
I haven't played the GameBoy version, only the PC version. It was so much fun, however, that when I was a little kid I played it on my computer all the time. The only dissapointment was that you get killed if you get hurt just once.

As Wolverine, you're on the run for your life. Your nemesis, Lady Deathstrike, is building a weapon that can turn your entire adamantine skeleton into liquid metal, claws and all. You must battle it out with three of your archenemies--Cyber, Sabretooth, and Lady Deathstrike--in order to destroy the weapon before it destroys you. Use Wolverine's bestial rage when you need a powerful attack, but be careful not to deplete all your health. Your mutant powers must be harnessed and used wisely to be effective. Go beyond simple running and punching: utilize claw attacks, lightning-fast uppercuts, and squat attacks to knock opponents out. As Wolverine, your mutant powers and metal skeleton are regenerative, making you difficult to kill, but you're still under the clock. There's no limitless life in this world. ... Read more

MAJOR dissapointment. For this pain, I need special ointment.
This is a piece of trash. The graphics and gameplay are horrible, and there are very stupid sound affects. Also, Wolverine is utterly disrespected and so are the villains Sabretooth, Lady Deathstrike, and Cyber(all of whom are cool)This game is junk. If you like X-Menstuff, stick to games like Wolverine's Revenge, and steer clear of this thing.

the worst
I don't know what these people are thinking.If they want to make a good game so a lot of people will buy it, they have to be using different systems!This game dos'nt look good when you're playing it.these graphics are a joke.And all the old X-men costumes!I being a huge X-men fan was throughly dissapointed.SAVE YOUR MONEY!!!!!

Average run of the mill side scroller
The only thins that sets X-Men: Wolverine's Rage apart from other side scrollers is the X-Men license itself.Strip away the fact your playing as Wolverine, and you've just got yourself an average run of the mill side scroller with nothing special attached to it.The game's 13 levels are relatively short and not at all too challenging, and the gameplay gets very repetitive after a while as well.The graphics are nicely animated, but the characters move around a bit jerky, plus it would have been nice to have some added super villians other than Cyber, Sabretooth, and Lady Deathstrike.All in all, if your an X-Men fan and own a GBC, give this game a try, but all others should leave this on the shelf. ...

Another TUROK game for GBC....But this one's Pretty Good
I recently purchased this game a week ago. I must have played that game 4 hours before I needed a rest,the game is very entertaining. The graphics were very impressive,especially on the GBC.The point of the game is kinda weird,but that doesnt affect the gameplay.It istrue that there are only 4 levels in the game,that may sound pretty shortbut trust me,its not.Each level is split up into 4 or 5 differentparts(when i say parts,I mean backround setting changes,baddies andsuch.Sometimes you will find yourself trying to beat one of the partsreally fast because of the scrolling screen. One of my favourite thingsabout the game is the variety of weapons u can get,and whats even better isthe weapon combining feature,where u can take two weapons u have andcombine them 2 make a more powerful one. Over all,Turok:Rage Wars is an A+game. The -1 star is because once you beat the game a few times it will getboring,but that will take a while anyways.GREAT GAME!

Turok 3 Rage Wars for Game Boy Color
This Game is great for game boy color. Although not like Turok for N64. In this Game you acquire many cool items like the mix kit which alows you to mix weapons. The game is in vivid color.I have to admit the bladelauncheris really cool.The only downside is that you might get annoyed by themonsters after a while.All in all if you enjoy Game Boy shooters and don'tknow what to buy this game is perfect for you. ...

Computer is definetly better.
When I put this in my Game Boy and started playing it, I thought it was fun, but soon very boring. Once you get past the paramites and after you kill the first slig you encounter (with your wits, mind you, not guns) , it was impossible! If you get to that first part, I'm sure you'll share my confusion. And, as the title suggests, thecomputer game version is much better then game boy. Some games just don't deserve to be put onto a smaller platform. ... Read more

Collector's items
The Tomb Raider franchise has had its ups and downs, so the three forays onto the miniscule Game Boy proscenium are understandably received with eyebrow raised.The first Tomb Raider for Game Boy Color (simply called Tomb Raider) was an immense surprise, since I did not expect to see Lara Croft rendered in such convincing animation.Reviewers seem to give that game high marks, and I have to agree - the game is playable, and actually fun.Then this one, Curse of the Sword, comes along.The animations are nearly as well done as the original, but seem slightly stodgy, as though some of the subtlety has been dropped out in favor of clarity.GBC TR1 sometimes hides items behind the scenery, making them hard to see; GBC TR2 actually blinks the medipaks and other items with a white flash, making cognitive skills hardwon in the first game unnecessary in the second.But what is done well, is done well.By contrast, the Game Boy Advance offering in the series, Prophecy, has bad graphics - Lara Croft is a cartoon who runs like a dork, with unvarying 90 degree leg bends like a swastika.The GBA character is not Lara, but an idea of Lara utterly lacking charm or nuance.The GBC characters, by contrast, transcend their tiny frames with brilliantly conceived animations that actually suggest a human being, or at the very least, the Playstation or Macintosh Lara viewed small.These are all collector's items.

Excellent game
I found this game to be almost as enjoyable as the first Tomb Raider game for Gameboy Colour. The action was plentiful, and there were some interesting puzzles to work through in the process of getting through the game. Tomb Raider
This is one of my favorite games. You start out trying to get from room to room, looking for your gun. There's limited places to go without your gun, because you are not able to get buy the police. This game is perfect with the difficulty levels-they are not to hard and not to easy. I highly recommend this game. ... Read more

Spiderman Game Boy
my 12 year old son bought this with Christmas money.He loves the game and it has renewed his interest in his 3 yr. old Game Boy....wanted to get Game Boy advance but we discouraged.Great seller, fast transaction

Not as bad as one would think
Before Spider-Man became a box office smash and became everyone's favorite hero, Activision changed the way super hero licensed video games would be by releasing the surprisingly great Spider-Man games for the PS1, N64, and Dreamcast.Eventually a GameBoy Color version would be released, and while it's nowhere near anything great, it is surprisingly solid and challenging.The graphics are typical 8-bit side scroller fare, but are colorful and well animated.Controls are simple and the enemies (especially Venom) are very challenging.This game is also surprising in the fact that it is more solidly realized than any other 8-bit or 16-bit home console game that was nothing more than a repetitive beat 'em up with a comic license attached to it.All in all, those who only have a GameBoy Color and are fans of the web head should give this a whirl.

The best Gameboy colour game.
It is too hard but it is still miles ahead of anything else on the Gameboy colour. I am not that good at hanhelds but I manged to get pretty far in the game and I have beaten Venom, The Lizard, Hobgoblin and Venom again. I am now fighting Venom a 3rd time and have found I can't beat him. The birdds are also pesky too. But it helps that the better you play the more points you get which gives special moves which makes fighting a hell of a lot easier. I have had a lot of fun with this game and as soon as I learn how to beat Venom again I will no doubt have more fun with it. ... Read more

Beautifully frustrating
Rayman has traditionally proven high quality graphics and sound, and despite some great limitations on the Game Boy Color system, Rayman still delivers the goods. This has to be one of the prettiest carts out there, and its music actually sounds half decent considering the materials it has to work with. Rayman is also one of the better side-scrolling platforms available for the system, but it doesn't come without a gripe or three. The password save makes it less convenient to pick up and play anytime you want. Later levels become very frustrating, also. Imagine having your controls reversed through an entire world or being followed in every footstop by a "dark Rayman." Games need challenge, but not to this extent. Remember, Game Boys break very easily, and Rayman does everything it can to promote that.

A REALLY fun game
I thought Rayman was sooo fun. It had really cool grafics. Some times it was really hard though.For me Rayman never gets boring.If you dont already have it get rayman!!!!

Great Game Boy game, great graphics for GB!
I am suprissed that this game doesn't get as much credit that it deserves. The graphics are some of the best I have seen on the Game Boy, and the game is great. If you enjoy Donkey Kong Country, and Super Mario Bros. Deluxe, this will be a great addition to your game boy library. IT is a great platformer that should not be missed. ... Read more

Not what expected
It's an okay game, but I'd recommend it for gamers who are 10 and under. The graphics are pretty good for GBC and the gameplay doesn't have any big flaws. I really enjoyed seeing the Lego world on my gameboy. The only major thing I didn't like about the game is the ending. When I got there, I didn't even know that I was finished and it only took me an hour or less. I'd recommend buying the original LEGO Island for PC, because it is more in-depth and has lots of modes of transportation. For example, you can ride a motorcycle, a bike, an ambulance, a jetski and more. The only two flaws are that you can't walk outside the paths/roads and you don't really get to fly the chopper. You should get the LEGO Island PC version for kids 7-13 and Lego island gamboy if it's for a 6-10 year old.

Not sure if it was worth the effort...
It is a great game, the graphics are incredible and my son really likes it, HOWEVER, it took me 3 weeks to install -- and I'm pretty good with computers! The system requirements also seem VERY high, so be sure your computer can run this game.

A Good One
This is a colorful game with interesting characters.It requires a lot of thought and exploring, with a small strategy requirement.The levels are big and full of friendly villagers, multiple enemies, and you will occasionally see characters such as the horse, Devon and Cornwall, and Merlin the magician appears in almost every level to help you prepare to battle bosses.A lot of time is required to get through the game, considering most problem-solvers aren't easily uncovered.Certain bosses require certain strategies that take a few losses to finally figure out, such as the giant plant.
Awesome!!
This is my favorite Gameboy game of all time.The fighting is minimized and the puzzles are maximized.Perfect game for me.

Extraordinary
Lara Croft on the tiny screen does some amazing things in a mighty small arena -- in the first half dozen panels of this sidescroller, she walks, runs, somersaults, jumps, grabs, pulls levers and shoots (with her magic Hollywood Special pistol that never runs out of ammo) scorpions, bats and snakes, and saves game at the first Silver Crystal to come along, with another crystal tantalizingly visible just beyond reach.It truly is amazing.The effect is like reading the Classic Comics version of Tomb Raider 3 -- lots of temples and jungles action, and every plot point and traditional Tomb Raider gimmick represented (or at least suggested) in the frame.Don't get me wrong, it's not a movie (even the "movies" are comic-style panels with dialog between still frames), and the graphics are primitive -- but Ms. Croft is rendered with character and flexibility intact.We get sucked into the game almost immediately, putting the GBC Tomb Raider (aka "The Nightmare Stone" but the 4-color printed paper label on this dark green transparent gamepak just says "Tomb Raider") in the same company as Link's Awakening.I was delighted to collect this, and even more delighted with the unexpected level of play.

Just received the used game it was in mint condition. Great but challenging
This game is really good! It is challenging, but come on no one wants a five minute game! I have beat the game once, but it is has a nice length, so I can play again without being bored.Read more

3.5 stars - better than people say it is
The Castlevania series is, without question, one of the greatest two-dimesional side-scrolling platformer action game series of all time. Unfortunately, the series had its share of blunders, too, one of which being the first entry on the Game Boy - the game had an extremely slow character, jerky play control, and virtually no replay value. Fortunately, the second Game Boy entry renewed my faith in the series having potential on a portable console. Circa 1998, this (the third Game Boy Castlevania), featuring Super Game Boy enhancements, was released. How does this measure up? Read on for my review of Castlevania Legends. Not all that good
I got a chance to play this a few years back, and to be honest, I didnt like it. I felt the gameplay to be VERY SLUGGISH, and just outright boring. Where did they go wrong?
You play as a chick. Okay, that's the absolute best part of the game. The music is pretty good but the play-control is very sluggish. The game just seems too shallow. I hope Sonia returns in a game that can do her justice, after all, she IS the very fisrt Belmont (according to Konami) generation-wise. ... Read more

You play as Little Nicky, the doltish son of Satan, in this side-scrolling Game Boy Color release based on the Adam Sandler movie of the same name. Players must leave the comfy confines of hell for a quest that leads them through 14 levels of running and jumping gameplay. Fly, possess others, demolish obstacles, and burp fire--all with your evil ray. Play mind wrestling and whack-a-pineapple as you explore a variety of minigames. You'll also be able to play like the devil in a wicked game of basketball that's based on a scene in the film. ... Read more

Not bad
Over all its a difficult game that follows the movie pretty closely. Many of the same jokes and content from the movie is here. Im surprised they put some of th ethings like the guu with the boobs on his head in, and hitler dressed as the maid, complete with his catch frase holy sh*t. Even the opening seen with they guy looking in the window at the girl is still here. The game itself is a side scoller like mario. you just have to manuever the levels and ususaly do somtheing. It is hard though, very hard. If they game play were better im sure it would have done better. im surpised it got a teen reating for strong language and sexual themes. Its not bad just a little hard and a little boring.

Adam Sandler Rocks
Adam Sandler is awesome! This is tons of fun. U can: If you liked the movie you'll love the game!
This game is a direct adaption of the game during the introduction. The storyline (same as the film's) is that Nicky's father (Satan) is going to retire so he plans to pick one of his 3 sons to take his place as ruler of Hell.Adrian and Cassius (Nicky's other brothers) have high hopes for winning, while Nicky hopes not to be picked.The father decides his sons are not ready to take over Hell so he will reign for another thousand years or so.Adrian and Cassius, enfuriated by this, travel through the firegate to Earth.The gate blocks souls from entering Hell so the devil begins to deteriorate.He sends Nicky to Earth to bring back his brothers before he fully disappears.

Great game, looking for a sequel
Judging from the hours my 7-year-old son has put into finishing all the levels of this game, I'd have to judge it to be the perfect video game. It's not an action game but a puzzle or logic game. The two of us played together on many screens, moving the ramps and tiles to make the players get from one point to another. One review complained about not being able to interfere with the characters as they are running the course, but it seems to me that this is just like computer programming. You set up the system then watch it run to figure out what goes wrong. Then you move some stuff around, maybe even reconceiving the whole plan, and try again. The logic skills it exercizes are evident. We played on the PC, not the nintendo, but our graphics were great. Maybe the Nintendo port is lousy, but it's a shame if it is, because this is a great game. I'm looking for a sequel.

My son literally said this game is (...)
After we read the directions ect., my son, who is 8, went to his room to play this new game.In a matter of a few minutes he came to me to say that this was (...).I was offended by his review, but after he left for school, I tried it myself and have to agree.He enjoys Super Mario and Mario Tennis.
