Invest in a better version of R-Type
If there was ever any doubt that R-Type II was nothing more than a slightly different version of R-Type then R-Type DX should lay them to rest forever.
BEST ARCADE GAME EVER!!!
I LOVE THIS ARCADE GAME YOU ARE IN A SHIP KILL ALIENS ITS good and you battle huge bosses lots of color and get new attacks with powerups and hundreds of enemys BUY THIS GAME IF YOU LIKE ARCADE GAMES!!!

Bad game for people who aggrivate easy.
It rules unless you get aggrivated easy. Then I'd suggest you'd sell it or don't buy it. Here's a quick tip: When you have a pod always collect the power-up unless it endangers you. ... Read more

Complete each level to dress Barbie
This game is for the advanced user.Each level is required to be completed to win fashion accessories.All activities become more difficult each time you play (i.e., collect falling jewelry, match floating tshirts, string necklace jewels, catch shoes in bag, fill bottles with perfume drops).You must complete each game to completely dress Barbie and advance to the secret level to win a surprise accessory.

Even being a HUGE barbie fan, i don't reccommend it.It gets very boring, and kepping track of multiple passwords isn't a favorite of mine.If you still are interested, rent it first!

Pretty good
It's a little same thing over and over. But I have to admit, It's addictive. It's good I recomend it .My fav game on it is the necklace maker.I think this game is good for ages 7 to 77 if a little gal wants to share the fun with Granny! ... Read more

's ok
I got it off a friend with no instructions but it was really easy to start.I played the easy level and i thought i was going to get through it with no problems until i got to a level when i the 'thing' on the skateboard disappeared every time i tried to get a certain deck.I managed it in the end though i think this games fixed or something cos i cant find anyway to control speed and so can never get to the required deck in the given time.Its like running for the bus with a sore leg.You go slower than you think you should be able to and just as you get to the bus stop, the bus pulls out.may be good if you've got good gameboy control.but if your that much of an expert you wont want to play it.

Best Game
This is the best game for gameboy color!!!!! you have to buy it!!!! you do amazing tricks with the tech deck guy that is outragous!!!!!! So buy this game (...)!!! youll be addicted to the best skateboarding gamefor your entire life!!!!!!!! if you dont believe me then play it, then youll seeeeee that it is the best game!!!!

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

Good game. I got a lot of items, and I beat the whole game.
Beyblade Fun
This game is based on your control and how good you launch your blade.You may have trouble with the controls, it can be difficult.The bigger the space the easier it is to get to the checkerboard square.It is fun but challenging to play this game.Try to collect more blades so that if someone wants to battle your blade you have more blades to choose from.

Not even the biggest Beyblade fan should get this...
First off, I'm a huge fan of Beyblade, but I have to say this is one of, if not THE worst game I have ever played. For one thing, this is suppposed to be Beyblade V-Force, and the characters all have their old Blades from the first season. The sound effects are awfull, the "bit-beast attacks" are plain and boring, and the graphics look like a mediocre Gameboy Color game. Most of all though, the gameplay isn't even fun, it's not even good for passing a couple of minutes. I feel Atari totally missed the whole concept of Beyblade, instead of it being a battling game, it's more like a boring version of Super Monkey Ball. If you want a real Beyblade game, try Beyblade GRevolution. It's pretty short, but it still has the same feel as the show, a lot of nice customization options too. ... Read more

The classic games of the 80s are back!!!
I brought this game sometime between 1995-1997. I wondered at first what this game was so i did a little research on it. It turned out that back in the 80s, before the Gameboy era and the NES, there were games alled Game and Watch. Each Game came with its own handheld system. They were widely popular back then. Now they're back for a whole new generation that missed these games. In this first edition, there are Oil Panic, Fire, Octopus, and Manhole (the modern version my personal favorite). This game was great. The graphics on the Super Gameboy was awesome and the music that accompanied it was great too. Your goal is to obtain five stars in each mode (easy and hard) in each version (classic which are the originals and the modern which are the updated ones).In all you have to get 100 stars in the entire game. Once you accomplish that feat, (it took me 2 whole years to do it)there is a special ending (don't wanna spoil the surprise), so ya'll find out for yourselves...

Why Aren't There More Games Like This?
I was first truly introduced to the world of Don Bluth in 1992 during a vacation to Disneyworld. In the hotel's basement was a relativley large and eclectic arcade.Wedged between Mad Dog McCree and Space Pirates was Dragon's Lair, probably the first truly interactive movie to ever be placed in an arcade machine. I became utterly fascinated with the game, though not having the patience to genuinely appreciate it. Before that, the only thing of Dragon's Lair I had ever even heard of was the Television series (though I remember the few episodes I saw being somewhat boring and non-descript, nothing like the game). Dragon's Lair is the most quintessential "cross-platfrom" game ever conceived; its original format on Laserdisc, then onto Arcade, to PC, to DVD, and finally, to GameBoy Color. (I believe there were even Playstation, Saturn, and Sega CD editions of the game, but I must admit that I am uncertain, and apologize in case I have genuinely left them out). Gameboy Color Does Good With This Title
I didn't think it could be done, but the orginal was shrunk to fit the gameboy color.I personally liked it and I will tell you why.First starters, its a great version of the classic game.I loved the arcade game, I was never really good at it, but I loved it.I was a little kid when Dirk first hit the scene and I was blown away by the animation and interaction.True, it is not a conventional video game, it's more eye candy and quick acting one button hitting moves, but this is the best of them.Dirk The Daring has been around for 17 years and they are still converting over to play on newer systems.Another reason I like it, it plays quickly.Let's admit one thing about about the Gameboy Color, it's not looking to dazzle you with graphics or sound, it's a hand-held game system to pass the time while you are traveling or hanging out (for older players anyway).I don't like getting really involved in my Gameboy games, I leave that to my Dreamcast, PS2, or PC games.With Dragon's Lair, I can pop it in, play for a bit and shut it off.Sometimes I don't play my Gameboy for weeks or even monthes at time, and playing some games (like RPGs or adventure games) I loose track what has happened or I forget the password to the next levels.All and all, Dragon's Lair is not for everyone.The real people who would enjoy this one would have to be the fans of the old game.New players may be a little confused about the gameplay and the odd pauses in the game.The fans familiar with the game will remember the pauses and obscure lag time, but we liked the game none the less.If you really like the game, then the only thing left to do is buy the DVD version. DVD version is the best translation (if not better) and it's relatively a cheap game...

Amazingly Faithfull, but....
Wow... Dragon's lair in your hands ! Of course, I think this game will only be appreciated by those who played it in the "old arcade days" , and will probably not create a new wave of fans. This being said, I think the GBC version is just amazingly faithfull, taking into consideration the potential of an 8 bit mini-console. Two things makes it a little bad though...First the sound effects were highly reduced (probably to make the visuals better) and the "game play" is way too fast,new players will have a hard time figuring out what to do. But, I'm 33, and I grew up in the 80's were a quarter could actually make a difference (Arcade wise) and I believe that Dragon's Lair GBC is really great ! ... Read more

It stinks!
I'm a gamer and this game is one of the worst I've played. The graphics are horrible and the action isn't there. it is exeedingly frusturating unless you get cheats. I payed $14.00 for this game and it's not worth it. It might be good for a six year old, but I'm thirteen and I did not enjoy this AT ALL! It's not worth the money,my advice is, don't buy! Hope this is helpful to you.

Attractive, but it does have one major drawback
There is too much lag time between the buttons andthe character's movements.If you don't press thebuttons "just so" you spend alot of time messing up. It is an attractive game to play once you get thehang of it, but it does take a lot patience.

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

Warlocked
There are two sides that you can play on: Queen Azarel's army in which you control human knights, elven archers, and grunts(little humans that do work like mining and chopping down trees,) or Emperor Zog's army which consists of beast warriors (instead of human knights,) skeleton archers (instead of elven archers,) and goblins (instead of grunts.)You can also gather wizards to aid you, and build essential farms to feed your troops.Also, if you find a dragon egg, you can have your troops carry it back to your Main Hall (your base) and it will hatch in about one minute.Even when you beat the game, you will find yourself coming back for more strategic fun.

Buy it
...This game is awsome and my guess is the guy in the last reveiw doesnt know how to play a strategy game. This game has every thing and is a great because it has mini games(poker, and slider) if you get tired of the main game. It would be better with more missions,its still a great game. But you may want to wait and get Wizards which is the sequel to this game, which will be on game boy advance.I cant wait.

A fair reveiw
Hi i have been gaming for a while and i enjoy all types, since most reviews afther say the game is awesome or horible, but i will give a fair review.But to start I would like to say i would give this game a 3.5 but there is no half of a star rating, but i felt that the game wasn't good enough to be awared a 4 mark. Warlock is a neat little rts and is fun to play while travling, be sure to bring extra batteries! this game can get addicting, but it's pathetic when you compare it to other rts's like age of empires and startcraft etc. But you have to think. This little pak did pretty well and i enjoyed the game very much. You have to read the manual for a bit and practice the controls for a bit. But once you got those the game becomes easier to understand. The graphics are like 1980 ones but you can make things out, which is really all a games needs to have. Sound is good, and music changes during the battles, so it creates more of a mood. When you selecting on one of your troops (1 of 4 posible types) they give a little grunt that you can hear to know that you selected one. The game is really easy at first but it gets hard, you'll find yourself planning your attacks more carefully. Each game contains wizzards that have special abilities. and everytime you beat a level all your troops,wood and gold are put into a chest called "the War chest", after you completed one races game (there are two Humans [good, can use knights elfin archers and grunts] and Monsters {bad, can use wariors, skeleton archers and goblins]) niether has the any advantages over the other, but i found the humans quest easier then the monsters. Any way i would recomend this game to any one who read this reveiw and wants the game. But you may want to rent it before buying, so you spend less money. ... Read more

Parents- Please Read
This review is not to critique the game and say if it's fun to play or not.I'm writing as a parent of a just-turned-6 year old boy who was loaned this game.While it is rated "E", and you may think it's safe for your kids like "Finding Nemo" or "Cat in the Hat" which are also rated "E".This game is VASTLY different.If you love your child and don't want him or her to see images of Spider-Man being ambushed by 5 gangsters with machine guns in the opening minutes of the game, then I'd suggest you pass on this one. Pack spidy up for the academy arwards.
Spider man is fun for me tell you get to let's say the 4th level.But It is a good game.The most challengeing level is the 2nd one.Here you can try to get out a collapsing building.Just remember to watch out for the bad guys.The sound is awsome.Unlike Pacman collection you can save your score and save the game.The color is nice exept in a dimm room It's hard to see without a GBA worm light [And I can see frogger in the same room].You need a plan to get into level 5 [which I haven't figured out yet] because you need stratgy to get to level 5 and keep your helth up. Kids under 6 probaly need to wait a year or two. In this game you can live the movie and have a ball.

Cool
I got this game for my birthday and I love it. Action, Villains, dying, absolutely no getting past Kraven The Hunter, But still. I like this game a lot, but I like the movie Better. Although it's rated E, it has more violence than Samurai Jack, rated T. I'm sorry that I couldn't make this longer, but like I said, I'm only up to Kraven The Hunter. But still, it's fun. Well, that's it. I hope this review has helped you and encourages you to get this GBA game cartridge. ... Read more

This game lets you re-enact your favorite Dragon Ball Z battles by using high-intensity fighting cards to protect the universe. You can build custom decks from five unique card types and position your characters to move through level after level of combat. Start out as Gohan, train against Piccolo, then battle Nappa, Vegeta, and Frieza. You can even attain multiplayer and trading status, if you're fast enough, brave enough, and strong enough to defeat your enemies.Read more

There should be another version of this game which features a mode similar to story mode in which you assume the role of villians, not good guys. It should also have movie modes where you can be good and/or bad which allows you to play through sagas from movies such as "Tree of Might".

SEQreview
The game is great(for those who know how to play). Beam attacks work best on an opponent when in the air, so if you dont want to get killled by one, do avoiding or get on the ground. Now, for what I REALLY wanted to say. There should be another version of this game which features a mode similar to story mode in which you assume the role of villians, not good guys. It should also have movie modes where you can be good and/or bad which allows you to play through sagas from movies such as "Tree of Might".

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.

BOOORING GAME DONT BUY!!!
My mother purchased this game for me on my 15th birthday.I absolutely love the movie so I thought the game would be awesome.WELL IT WAS NOT!!At the time my mom paid full price, thirty dollars.I WOULDN'T BUY IT IF IT WAS 90% OFF THE PRICE!All you do is drop chicken feed and watch the other chickens eat it and follow you LITERALLY!The game tries to make it interesting by having you try to get passed the gaurd dogs and not get eaten, but it still stinks!!!You do the same thing EVERY LEVEL!Drop feed, have the other chickens eat it and follow you to the end of the level!If you put the feed to far apart you lose!If you use up all of your feed before the end of the level, you lose!There's a certain distance you must use to place the feed in order for them to follow you.ONCE AGAIN THIS GAME IS BORING AND DO NOT BUY IT!I literally played it twice and never did again!Hopefully this was good advice for you not to buy it because this information is true!

Avoid.
I do not like this game. It comes from a developer with absolutley no history and plays out to be a complete waste of time. The graphics are very bad, especially compared to the Game Boy Advance version. The controls take quite a bit of practice, and the trick catalog is serverly limited. There are only 4 freesytlye courses, where you might enjoy grinding your way down a vast assortment of rails. The games only real fun lies here, as nothing else will ever bring you back. Good for at least an hour, but you will never pick up this game again. If you need some handheld sonwboarding, try the Game boy Advance version of this, or try MTV Sports: Pure Ride Snowboarding on the Game Boy Color. Put this at the bottom of your list for BEST GAME.

Pretty Lame Game
The low-resolution, mostly 2D graphics are rather un appealing.The game opperates from a side view, 3rd-person perspective; much different from most console snowboarding games.Overall, gameplay is simple and boring; nothing exciting or interesting about it.It seems the only goal is to do tricks, which look very unimpressive, given the poor graphics. easy as 1,2,3.
