5-0 out of 5 stars Great for what it is.
Cons: the menus could be a bit more intuitive, and it does play at a high level for someone who isn't a pretty serious chess player (even the weakest players on the weakest setting).

Pros: challenging to good players and people trying to improve their game.I'm not beating it very often, but I am getting rid of bad playing habits.Once you get used to the menus, there really is a lot to this program:different AI opponents with various playing styles, tutorial stuff, and a few hundred classic games to review along with some chess history, and it saves your game if you need to put it down.

I also like playing chess on my GBA and can get in a couple of games a day just by carrying it in my pocket and taking it out when I'm not doing anything (waiting in line).Also nice to have a chess computer that I know isn't going to break.

3-0 out of 5 stars Good little chess game
I like this game but there is room for improvement. First, the AI is really tough--even the lowest level opponents are probably too tough for the casual gamer. Second, the chess tutor section is pretty poorly done, in my opinion. Good points about the game include the graphics and the play control. It also lets you redo all the moves of a game, which is good for learning.

2-0 out of 5 stars It needs a manual or game guide
Fun but hard to figure out how to get to earn chess sets. It needs an instruction manual

5-0 out of 5 stars The GBA chess game for serious enthusiasts.
Chessmaster for the GBA is a better choice for real enthusiasts
than Virtual Kasparov.It was released several months later, and its obvious than Kasparov and its obvious that this game fixed some of the shortcomings.

Some very important features this game includes:
A true save feature instead of Kasparov's antiquated password system.
Ability to undo moves.Helpful for when you want to experiment strategies or simply make a silly mistake.
150 classic matches from real masters.its takes a few seconds to load, but gives a fantastic lesson in strategy as a game actually unfolds.
Ability to choose different pieces.A bunch of them are useless (like dog theme pieces) but several are excellent to play with and give nice options.
Tutorials on moves, strategies and notation.I find the notation tutorial to be especailly helpful for players who want to learn more detailed strategies from books and other sources.Great job including this!

I do agree with some of the other comments ofr this game..the difficulty is a bit high for novice players or children who aren't the next Bobby Fischer, but for enthusiasts who want a chess challenge at thier fingertips this is great.There isalso a comment that selecting pieces takes several clicks to register.I never encountered this problem, the game plays just fine.

4-0 out of 5 stars A strong Chess program for the GBA
I have both Virtual Kasparov (VK) and ChessMaster (CM).I wish I could combine the best features of both.

First off, CM plays at a much higher level.Whereas most of the VK personalities make occasional blunders, very few of those in CM do.This means that you really have to earn your wins against CM.Youngsters and novices (below say 1300 ELO) are likely to get walloped by most of the CM characters.
Also on the plus side:CM reports the moves in standard algebraic notation (VK does not) and allows infinite undo and redo.CM also contains a large library of famous games for review.
On the minus side, as the previous reviewer comments, I find I frequently have to press the arrow keys several times before CM acknowledges my move (and then frequently shoots past the piece I'm trying to pick up).This is quite annoying.
Also, CM does not automatically record the board position (VK does, which is useful when your batteries suddenly run out).CM also expects only a single user (VK records board positions and preferences for up to three different users).
Choose CM if you're a strong chessplayer or are looking for a real challenge.Choose VK for youngsters or novices. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Really Great!!!
This game is really fun but challenging I've played it at least 4 times and had to look at a walk through every time! You'll see all the hams you know from the show and even different hamsters. You save Bijou in the beginning by driving a boat but how to get it working you'll see buy the game as you and Bijou save love for all ham hams in 6 fun challenging levels

5-0 out of 5 stars tinglie! koochi-q! i Smoochie it!
I got this game for christmas from my parents and i've played it ever since. i is kinda
hard to beat but easy at the same time. i've bet it three times now but it is fun all the same. I needed cheats every once in a while. it is one of my three favorite GBA games; harvest moon: friends of mineral town, hamtaro: ham-ham games, and last but not least, Hamtaro: ham-ham heart break.
thank-Q!Bye-Q!

5-0 out of 5 stars I LOVE IT!
I love this game so much! Hamtaro is my favorite show! It was fun playing it for a really long time and the game lasts awhile, but then I beat it and there is nothing left to do on it. That's why I don't play it anymore. But it was fun while it lasted!

5-0 out of 5 stars Great Ham-Ham game
This game is so fun because you can go to differemt places that have hamsters that don't love each other any more. You have to restore thier love. This evil hamster named Spat is trying to stop the hamsters from loving, and only you can stop him. You can even learn more ham-chats as you go to other places. As you go along, you will find rocks, acorns, and sunflower seeds. There are more challenges as you go farther into the game. If you have this game, then I hope you like it. If you don't have this game, then you should try it, I think you might really like it.

5-0 out of 5 stars the best game ever!
this is the best game ever!even if the game is a bit hard its still like, so cool!l8r! ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Barbie Groovy Games
Barbie Groovy Games is a very entertaining game, but it gets boring after a while.First of all, I would have to say that this game is centered on young girls, as do most Barbie games.The graphics definitely present a girly theme.But, this is not your average Barbie game.There is no designing of Barbie's wardrobe invovlved.This is not another poor excuse for an action game where you have to manuver Barbie around with limited skills to use.This is a collection of fun mini-games to play by yourself or with a friend.
Many of the mini-games teach girls problem-solving and logic skills, which is very good.But, be aware that this is not a game that will have you hooked for months.It is just a fun little game to play with a friend.Listen to the words a friend.If you have more than one friend over your house this game will not be a good choice because only two people can play at once.I have summarized my review in the following list of pros and cons.

Pros:

It is one of the few games centered toward young girls.
It is more fun than the average Barbie game.
It teaches girls problem-solving and logic skills.
It is pretty entertaining, sometimes even to older girls.

Cons:

Boys will probably not want to even go near it, never mind play it.
It gets boring after a while.
It is not good if you have more than one friend over.

5-0 out of 5 stars Very entertaining and exciting for a 4-year old
We received this game yesterday and my 4-year old was a little frustrated at first because there are so many games, but once we maneuvered through it together, she easily got the hang of it and is already playing all of the games. She gets very excited when she "wins" and I think this game would be just as entertaining for an older girl as well. Having nine games, they can move onto another when they get bored with or master one. Great game, and at this price would make a great inexpensive gift!

4-0 out of 5 stars Good one for the younger kids. . .
My 6 year old daughter loves to play it.The only problem is that my 3 year old son is constantly trying to borrow it from her!!Great games and easy to play.Highly recommend for the 8 yrs. and under crowd.

4-0 out of 5 stars Really Easy Game for Young Girls
I bought this for my niece for her birthday. She loved it. I checked with her yesterday and she still loves it. Her mom says that it is an easy game for young girls that has longer gameplay than most. It is similar to the Mario Party game series; but with cute graphics and Barbie. I thing it was a good purchase. Great price too.

5-0 out of 5 stars My 6 year old daughter loves it!
The variety of fun games keeps her interested when we're on long trips.The graphics are nice and she likes to be able to play against Barbie and her friends. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars It wasn't as good as others
nancy drew... is genius! but having the computer games was good enough. now its for gameboy and it just wasn't as exciting as a lot of the computer nancy drew games. overall i'd say, from a 13 year old, this game, buy it for your computer.

4-0 out of 5 stars COOL!!!!
THIS GAME IS AWESOME!!!IT'S NANCY DREW LIKE YOU'VE NEVER SEEN HER BEFORE!!SNOOP ALAROUND THE MANSION,TALK WITH ALL THE SUSPECTS,UNCOVER THE SECRET OF PAST IN THE MANSION,AND DISCOVER WHOSE CAUSING ALL THE 'ACCIDENTS'.THIS IS ONE OF THOSE GAMES THAT KEEPS YOU ON YOUR TOES!!!

5-0 out of 5 stars A Fantastic Game
My daughter who is 11yrs old never gets a chance to play on the Playstation, due to her older brother always hogging it up.So I looked into getting something for her and Nancy Drew has opened up a whole new world for her and me. It started out being her adventure and turned out to be mine as well. She loves the games and the challenges it gave her.We have done all of the Nancy Drew Series, including the new one Island of Deception.I can't wait for the next one.We highly recommend getting the whole series for any little girl looking for serious challenges.Be sure to have your pen & paper ready for clues!

5-0 out of 5 stars All PC Nancy Drew Titles
My 11yr. old and I play for hours on these Nancy Drew mystery games. They can require you to put on your thinking cap but they have sites that give helpful hints if needed. My son enjoys these games and even gets his sister (7) involved. I highly encourage any child to play and master these games. You can save at any point in the game so you can leave and come back whenever you like. They also have a very historical educational quality to them.

3-0 out of 5 stars it was good but not as good as the computer games
the games was good, but very hard to play.you had to finish a chapter before you could save and if you did anything in the chapter that was ahead of its time and quit, when you typed in the password it wouldn't be done, so you would have to do it all over again.overall it was a good game but i would reccomend playing it on the computer instead!!!!!!!!!!!! ...

5-0 out of 5 stars So Fun!!!
This is my favorite video game! You get to mix your own cds, change the girls outfits, have them dance and so much more! Don't do level hard-extreme because it's impossible to do.

4-0 out of 5 stars Great Fun!
Girls Night Out is a really fun game! You get to chose Mary -Kate or Ashley for your dancer, and your set of difficulty. You have a closet where you can chose the clothes you want the player to wear, [shoes, pants, shorts, shirts, and even hats,] and you can even change the color of the clothes, from red to black! You unlock clothes, songs, [the songs last about one to two minutes and don't have words] dance moves, and sounds! The game also has this thing called Jam, where you can kinda make your own song with the songs ans sounds that you unlocked!
To be honest, this game is really fun! And really, after you buy it, you will be glad you bought it.

4-0 out of 5 stars I loved this game
This game is all about girls of course. I am a huge FAN OF DANCING. And Britney Spears i have her dancing game to i don't like itas much as i love GIRLS NIGHT OUT. So go out and buy this game u will be glAD you did

You can dress them up, with close you unlocked, make music videos, create a remix to songs, can practice your moves and try them on the dance floor!!When your done with all the levels, you'll see your charecter danceing to a song called London Triump. They makke this game so it's not for babies but not so hard!! Trust me. This game is COOL!!!

Amazon.com Review

Three months have passed since the Internet crime organizationWorld Three was defeated by Lan and his virus-busting pal, MegaMan.exe. Just as the world begins to feel safe, a new threat rears itsdigital head: an evil Internet syndicate called the Net-Mafia Gospel.Will Lan and Mega Man be up to this new challenge?

The gameplay of Mega Man: Battle Network 2 is almost identicalto the first game--it'san isometric RPG with a kickin' battle system. You spend half the timein the "real world" as Lan, and the other half in the Internet as theantivirus program Mega Man.exe. Solving puzzles and getting power-ups(and, of course, fighting baddies) are the core of this game.

The crowning glory of Mega Man: Battle Network 2 is its battlesystem. The arcade-style battles are still in real time, but there aresome significant changes since the first game. Mega Man doesn'tautomatically regain his health after a battle--he needs to findspecial chips to fully recover. Also, there are now four battle stylesfrom which Mega Man can choose (heat, aqua, wood, or electricity)depending on the type of chips he collects. These chip types affectMega Man's effectiveness against different enemies. The battle screenshave also changed; unique terrains now make battles more varied. Andnow there are more than 200 chips to collect!

The plot in Mega Man: Battle Network was a little shallow, andseemed geared toward a younger crowd. While Battle Network 2 isalso rated E, it has a darker, fuller story--and with an enemy like theNet-Mafia Gospel (which has to be the coolest gang name I've everheard), the story becomes a compelling enhancement to the game.

Mega Man: Battle Network 2 comes through with some refreshingrefinements to all the good features of the original game, making it amust-have for any Mega Man or RPG fan. --Bryan Karsh

Pros:

  • Mega Man changes appearance depending on which battle style headopts
  • Players trade chips via link cable, or fight a friend for theminstead!

Cons:

  • The story may be confusing if you haven't played the first game

4-0 out of 5 stars It is...acceptable*TA-DOM*
No for real folks,this game is really fun,I was just playing around!now,I played this game shortly after I played MMBN1(mega man battle network part 1),and I thought it was great,The story starts with Lan and megaman.EXE,Lan just had to run to school because he was late(again).When he gets there his friend Dex tells him about this thing called'the square'so Lan and megaman.exe go to the square and become City nettbattler.then later on they find out about this new net mob called'Gospel'.As you can see so far from the story,this game is COOL!!!PROS:New battle chips,great new story,'style change'(gives mega man new powers),and new subchips!(power ups)CONS:The game gets really hard after you beat this one part in the game about Shadowman.Ya see that people,I can only think of one thing bad about the game!this game is a good buy but don't pay too much for it,I mean its good...but its SHORT,VERY SHORT...

5-0 out of 5 stars ALL ABOUT MY FAVORITE GAME
I must say when i got theses game i was shaking. In this megaman adventure u get to have a style change. EVEN the bad guys r kool except airman. U even get to have way more battle chips then in megamanbn1. What mostly suks about these game is that u don't get to vs sharkman or woodman or even skullman. But in megamanbn2 u get to vs snakeman shadowman gateman and... i told u enough navis. U even get to go 2 netopia. it seems that bad navis is every where. The coolest navie of all time is bass. even though he was fake.

5-0 out of 5 stars MegaMan Battle Network 2 Rocks
This is a very good game.When I first played it was at school on my friends gameboy advance sp. It might be the only MegaMan game I have played, but it is still an !!!!!AWESOME!!!!! game. I suggest you to buy this !!!!!AWESOME!!!!! game and have alot fun playing this game.

5-0 out of 5 stars greatest game ever
this was one of the best games capcom has ever come out with. it's different from any game i've ever seen. i play megaman games alot and was geting tired of the same levels, bosses, enemys, and expecialy the two-d field. then i got this game and so far it's my favorite megaman game ever. it's a cross between final fantasy style and free style, my favorite types. so thats why i gave this game five stars ...

Amazon.com Review

Continuing the time-honored tradition of repackaging old console games, the Lunar RPG series has come to the GBA with Lunar Legend.

You play Alex, a young boy who hopes to one day be a Dragonmaster like his dearly departed hero Dyne. One day, a wizard named Nash comes into town, and needs an escort to a nearby shrine in the woods. You, your childhood friend Luna, and your flying cat-like pet Nall accompany Nash to the shrine, and your adventure begins.

Lunar Legend is an indirect port of a 10-year-old Sega CD game. The locations and characters are the same, but the dialog has been significantly shrunk to fit on the cartridge. This is a minus for true Lunar fans, since much of the story is lost. However, even with "Lunar Lite," you get a very satisfying game.

The game play is standard RPG fare: You walk around, randomly attack monsters, explore dungeons, and talk to villagers in various towns for quests and clues. The battle system, like most RPGs, is turn-based, and has some nice additions like the "Arts Gage" system, which allows special attacks after your character makes enough attacks during a battle. Lastly, you can collect cards throughout the game, and trade them with friends via link cable or sell them in various shops. Strangely, that's all you can do with them. It would have been nice if there was a mini card game of some kind.

The graphics in Lunar Legendare spectacular--on par with Golden Sun. The sound is top notch too, though the Luna's singing can get a little tiresome.

If you're looking for an easy RPG experience, or would like to relive part of the classic Lunar Series, give Lunar Legend a shot. You won't be disappointed. --Bryan Karsh

Pros:

  • Amazing graphics
  • Funny cat-like sidekick
  • Trade game cards via link cable
  • Great story
  • Simple, yet fun battle system

Cons:

  • A shadow of the original CD version of the game--may upset true fans of the series
  • What use are collecting cards, if there is no mini card game?

4-0 out of 5 stars First RPG Game I Played-
Besides Poke'mon (which isn't a /rea/ rpg thing --) This was the first RPG I played. I had gotten it Christmas, when I was 9. It took me /3/ years to beat. I put it down after I couldn't beat the final boss. It's incredbly fun to play though, great grahics and awsome characters. (Go Nall!)

3-0 out of 5 stars A decent RPG, especially for the RPG starved GBA
There isn't anything particularly amazing about Lunar ... the graphics are amazing, but the story is just alright, the battle system is pretty much standard fare. And yet despite all the medicority of all the individual parts Lunar still manages to be a fun playing experience.

The gameplay pretty much follows a linear path ... you talk to people in town, they direct you to the next dungeon, you fight a lot of random battles, you make it to a boss, you beat him, you go back to the town to get praise and directions to the next town in distress. Pretty standard fare. There aren't any side-quests, no real item custimization (other than the normal weapon and armor sellers), and you can't even customize your party (people come and go at various points in the story).

And yet, somehow Lunar manages to still be a solid game to play. While it won't leave you awed at its greatness (like FF Tactics Advance) it still won't leave you feeling cheated either. It's not the greatest RPG out there for the GBA, but it has some intangibles that do make it a quality play.

5-0 out of 5 stars Lunar Legend truly is a Legend
If you want an RPG for your Gameboy Advance besides Golden Sun that can actually stand up to those found on the console then Lunar Legend is the RPG for you!While it isn't nearly as good as its release on the Playstation or even Sega CD it is worthwhile for a handheld.

The first thing about Lunar Legend that's cool is that for the GBA the graphics look great! The game doesn't lag much and it looks smoother than most GBA games do.It reminds of the look it had on the Playstation... only better suited for the GBA.

Lunar has a typical storyline that isn't too hard to follow but it has been reveered as a classic.What makes the story interesting is not the way it unfolds, but its characters.Without a doubt Lunar has characters that you may not like at first but over time you grow to love them.The characters are extremely well developed and you get time to know these characters.

The game features random battles and much like the console RPGs, have you going from place to place.The random battles are nice but this brings about a problem for Lunar.The game is relatively easy. Most battles won't take long but the random encounters become tedious because they don't take long and they're too easy.

In battle you can have your characters select commands such as to attack, use magic and the like.The battle system is fairly easy to learn but again the game is too easy.Even the bosses in the game are easy.For someone who played the Playstation or Sega CD version they may find the game to be dimmed down a bit too much.

The sound in Lunar isn't special really.It can be rather annoying actually.The spoken dialogue isn't too bad though and it really brings out the essence of the game.Unfortunately the story isn't dragged out by full motion anime cutscenes like before since the GBA isn't really capable of doing such a thing.The dialouge is also humorous and constructive and again shows why the story is so engrossing.

Lunar isn't really a long game though.It's rather short.In fact it can be completed in 15-18 hours.The game has extras such as an art gallery and collecing a 150 cards but nothing extreme is offered.

Overall, for the GBA this is a great RPG to play.It won't keep you busy for several hours or weeks on end but on a trip its nice to have along.

The Good
+Awesome Graphics
+Good storyline
+Loveable characters
+Easy to learn battle system

The Bad
-Can't say the same for the sound as the graphics
-Short game
-Too easy
-Not very many extras and such to keep you busy
-While the storyline is good it isn't original

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent RPG
When I was new to RPG's, I wasn't really hooked onto them. Then I bought Lunar Legend for my Gameboy Advance SP and I was immidiately taken in by the amazing story! The story is about a young "country boy" named Alex who wants to become a Dragonmaster. On his quest to do so, he travels with Luna, a songstress who is his close friend, Nash, a young "sorceror" who is a bit snobbish. Jessica, daughter of one of the four heroes, her boyfriend Kyle, a rogue bandit, and Mia, heir to the magic guild. On the journey Luna is kidnapped by the Vile Tribe, along with other Songstresses. As Alex tries to quicken his quest to become a Dragon master so that he can save Luna.

The gameplay is fun and entertaining. The battles have several options to choose from, which include manual or automatic. I prefer the manual to improve stratigic skills. The towns are fun to explore, and keep you well equipped (so long as you have money of course, which you obtain from battles). And in all it has about 30 hours of gameplay. I strongly reccomend this game to any RPG fan, or to any new RPG fans.

4-0 out of 5 stars great game but not so challenging
this game is pretty easy to beat(especially the last boss),and the characters talk way to much,but it has a good storyline.
*challenging 8/10
*long hours of gameplay(compared to the other games that I have played on the gba)7/10

5-0 out of 5 stars Great game!
In this game, using frogger-like gameplay, use frogger's abilities, make your way through puzzles and unlock even more abilities. With coins, you can buy things at a shop and get many tips in the town.
Fun and brain-teasing game!

4-0 out of 5 stars Frogger with plenty of style
I really like this game.The graphics are cool.Actually my favorite part are the characters.It starts off a little slow but once it gets going, it's hard to put down.The levels are really neat.It's classic Frogger but with a twist.It has cool hidden stuff sort of like Animal Crossing.The grappling hook and other stuff that Opart can do are cool.It gives Frogger cool new abilities.So far, it's pretty fun.I recommend it to anyone that likes Frogger and puzzle style games. ...

4-0 out of 5 stars Its Dis-tastic
this game is awsome. You can play as 5 of your favorite disney characters. With Three awsome modes

challenge cup
exhibition
practice
This also has 14 great! power-ups to help you out, and there you have it tune in for the next inside disney with almore cato.

4-0 out of 5 stars Very Good GBA Football game
Even as an adult, I like this little game.With Madden 2004, the players are too small (as there are 11 on each side).This game only has 5 players on each side.You can see the holes to run through better.Also, you can actually have a running game with this game.Plus, for the kids or if you just want to add fun, you can add the magic and mines options to spice up the game.I much prefer it over Madden 2004.

4-0 out of 5 stars A Great Game
Even though I didn't like the disney characther for this game, it was still a great game.Any children would have a blast with this great football game made by Konami.

4-0 out of 5 stars Well...
Well... It's not to what is expected of football (BACKYARD FOOTBALL GBA written all over it!) Passing is tougher, running you can use greatly, and WORST OF ALL! THIS GAME looks just like BYFB, WHAT WAS THEY TINKIN' YO? Dis ain't good "uh tall"!!! ... Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars This game is why M-K & A are suing the developer-It stinks
Got it for a 6 & 8 yr old & even my husband & I are unable to "beat" the computer players. It has no option to not let the computer play. It is very frustrating & we are ready to pitch it.

5-0 out of 5 stars It Is Ok
I have this game and I love it the only problem is that there is no Rock Climbing, No mini Golfing, no triva, and no drivers test like people say. I still love this game no matter what because you still have to do all the tasks and you have to get a good grade. You also have to watch out for cars. I really like this game.

4-0 out of 5 stars Worth the price!
This game is the best! The only hard part about it is the cars but once you get used to it you'll get it.

4-0 out of 5 stars Very Challenging
This game is challenging. You have to watch for cars in front of you. I have to play a level 50 times in order to go on. I'm a challenging girl, so buy it. It's fun!

5-0 out of 5 stars THIS IS AN AWESOME GAME!
This is so awesome! You get to do different things for other people! You can get tickets for going the wrong way and hitting someone! I LOVE THIS GAME! It Is Really Really Cool! ... Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars Bab game.
This is the worts game I ever played.

5-0 out of 5 stars Awesome game!!!
Army Men Op Green is a fantastic game, with realistic sound effects and great explosions.The plot of the game is excellent, and the missions' diversity is a relief from other games with the sole purpose is getting a key-card and escaping the level. The interaction with things is cool, especially driving the vehicles. This was my first game for GBA, and it really set a high standard which will be hard to top.

5-0 out of 5 stars AWSOME!!!! (especially if you're an armymen fan)
This game is sooo coool! I have always loved the Armymen games, and now I can play all the time. Make sure that before you play, you go to options and make the control B. This allows you to move around wherever you want. It is also cool if you turn off the music and just play with the noises while wearing head phones. It's kinda hard to drive the vehicles at first, but you'll get the hang of it.I just got this 2 days ago and I havn't been able to put it down...It also has good re-play ability, I like to go back to the earlier levels and make sure I kill everyone of those little tan guys! Speaking of the tan guys, they're really smart. Lol...They follow you and stuff. And watch out for the kamakazis(sp???) They run up to you and then blow themselves up!Buy this game now! You definatly won't regret it.

5-0 out of 5 stars A five star game
Army Men: Operation Green, is one of the best Games for
Game Boy Advance.You can use 7 weapons, Bazooka, Flamethrower, Grenades, Knife, Minesweeper, Rifle and M-60.You can also drive Half-Tracks, Cargo Trucks, Jeeps and Tanks.The graphics are some of the best, and the controls are also good.
If I were you, I would buy this game. I hope this review helped you.

3-0 out of 5 stars Disappointing but solid
I was somewhat disappointed by this game, as a longtime Jazz Jackrabbit player and Jazz Jackrabbit 2 (an infinitely superior PC game) addict. It's a solid platformer, but lacks the personality and humor that makes Jazz Jackrabbit games traditionally excellent. I was unable to bring myself to finish the game, in fact, in the first few sittings. Still, as long as one does not get their hopes up too much, Jazz Jackrabbit is a great game. But try its distant PC cousins first.

4-0 out of 5 stars Great game but WAY too short
I got this game because i remember playing the originals on the dos when i was about 5. I really liked them and i couldn't believe that Jazz Jackrabbit was really back. So i was at Costco one time and they had a bunch of gba games for $$$$ and i saw this one, so i got it. Well it is extremely fun, has great graphics and sound and music, but it is too short. I beat it in about 2 hours or less. But it was still fun and it is great to take on trips because it is fun and not confusing. If you like jazz jackrabbit, get this game. Otherwise get something like metroid fusion or something.

5-0 out of 5 stars It's Back Man!
Man! I'm suprised they actually put this game on gba! I haven't played this games since I was, like, three. Well, I hope it's as good as the original...

Jazz Jackrabbit by JALECO is returning, and I remember playing the old skool games, they was sweet cho'! And JJ3 looks just as promising, you shall not be disappointed!

1-0 out of 5 stars Wow this is craptacularly awful...
If there's one thing I loathe it's not getting bang for my buck.I have to say I feel completely ripped off having purchased this game.I'm a big fan of NBA Jam and NBA Hangtime and I thought it would be cool to have this on my GameBoy Advance SP.The first time I fired it up I thought "This is awful."I put it away in disgust.I've since tried to play (and like) the game 2 more times but I am in awe at how gawd-awful the graphics and more important the gameplay is.And like another reviewer mentioned I bought this game because of the positive reviews posted here on Amazon.com.Methinks there're people with a wicked sense of humor who enjoy the company of misery or it's one of the marketing folks from the makers of this putrid NBA Jam 2002 "port" or whatever you want to call it.I would'nt even give this crapfest 1 star but I can't post this review unless I select a rating.I give it a " -1 star".You have been warned.

3-0 out of 5 stars Not fair!
Hey, I appreciate the effort of making an NBA game but it's not enough, there has to be more than one basketball game on GBA. I think that they should make NBA Showtime or NBA Street or NBA Live on GBA. These are some of the best basketball games on different systems. On N64, I loved NBA Showtime, I'm sure that there are many other people that want to see this game on GBA. On PS2, NBA Live and NBA Street are the best basketball game on the system. If I had the chance to make video games, I would make all of these game for GBA. If you think that I am right and want more basketball games on GBA, write reviews to tell them this!

1-0 out of 5 stars Junk!!!
Didn't have in stock, yet advertized for it

1-0 out of 5 stars Arrrrggg
This is definently THE WORST BASKETBALL GAME EVER!!!!You can't tell wich playor is wich, the play is SLOPPY,you can make a shot from anywhere not to mention you can get up to 9 points at mid court!

1-0 out of 5 stars DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY
i really like basketball i have one for every system exept gameboy and gameboy advance i thought it would be cool but if you are the kind of person who wants a realist game this is not the one for you first of all you only get to use two players on the court the people can make a basket from anywere on the court just about all the time and the people jump to the celling and instead of stealing the ball they trip you or push youover but if you do not want a realist play agaist the rule games this may be the game for you ...

Amazon.com Product Description

LEGO Bionicle is the story of the Bionicle and the island of Mata Nui before the Toa. Before time was ever recorded, the Tohunga, who inhabited Mata Nui, weren't able to live on the island in peace. But a brave Tohunga, they were told, would come one day and restore peace. The Tohungas prophesied that this mighty Tohunga would bring the Toas back by recovering the six Toa stones.

LEGO Bionicle is an action-adventure game in which players become that brave Tohunga. You will complete several quests in six areas so you can discover the stones that will summon the Toa. Along the way, there are more than 20 levels of traps, puzzles, and adversaries to face. The six multiplayer Tohunga athletic games also let you play with friends.

Players customize their Tohunga characters much like they do the toy line. You can choose masks as well as biomechanical limbs and torsos. The game even syncs with your Bionicle toys. Enter codes from the packaging and you'll gain access to secret game-enhancing features.

Visually, LEGO Bionicle offers a top-down perspective, and its vertical and horizontal parallax scrolling makes the gameplay more interactive. Best of all, the game takes full advantage of the Game Boy Advance platform, letting you link up to four GBA units so you can play with friends. ... Read more

2-0 out of 5 stars Zzzzzzzzz...
This is a bore. Why would anyone waste 40-50 on a GBA game like this one?! The object of this game is to retrieve all of the 6 Toa Stones and participate in pathetic mini games.I don't like this game.The last part of the game is impossible.Spend your 40-50 dollars on one of these games below:
Super Mario Advance
Advance Wars
Golden Sun
Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising
Golden Sun: The Lost Age
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past

3-0 out of 5 stars Not the best...
First off, the graphics are nice. Some of the parts in this game are challenging, which caused me to kick my dog and yell loudly. You have to be a villiager. No toa.:( It's not so bad, but some lack of effort to make a game is visable. I suggest getting it at a low price, so you don't feel cheated like I did.

5-0 out of 5 stars Havn't played the game but I know what it's about.
I finally got this game.I bought it on ebay.This the prequal to the Bionicle Online Game 1.A lot of people really don't know what Bionicle is really about. Bionicle is a world of robot people. There are six different villages. Each village has there own Turga (Leader) and Toa (Hero). The character you play as is really Takua but you can name your charcter anything you want. You can also make your character's arms, legs, and head any color you want.You can make your character's body parts be geeen, purple, blue, red, yellow, brown, or black.You can unlock all kinds of mini games too.You can unlock Koli foot ball mini game and five other games.This is a really cool game and I'd recommend it to anyone who likes Bionicle.

3-0 out of 5 stars an ok game
its an ok game. i dont really know what to do. i made it to the underground place.it stinks you have to be the earth villager. save your money and buy a GC AND sUPER MARIO SUNSHINE. see my review on THe other bionicle matoroan adv.

4-0 out of 5 stars The third toa stone
Okay, ill start off by saying to get te third toa stone you just use the drill to go undergroung when your at the big scourpion and then pop up from undernath him. Its hard to do but he only takes 2 hits. ANYWAY this game is okay. Graphics are good, and all but that backwards summersoult he does when he lands on a bush or something-awful. that little thing single-handedly lost the game a whole star. if you love bionicle and just want to feed your passion for it, then get this otherwise, dont pay retail. ...

4-0 out of 5 stars Very enjoyable!
After starting out with JLA Chronicles, I was a little leery of trying something new. This one is much better. The graphics are much better and the character movement is flawless. The only downside I'd give this game is the fact that Flash's speed can only be used a little before having to recharge (what else is this character good for besides running super fast? Why penalize us for using his gift?). The character selection is the same as Chronicles, but this is more of a side-scroller than the "a little from the top" screen of Chronicles. It's really cool to get to fly as Superman through Metropolis--even though that is only a small part of the gameplay. All in all, the replay value of this is good, and any fan of the JLA cartoon series will love it.

My suggestion to these game programmers...take a look at the X-Men games and give us more characters to choose from next time. Don't limit yourself to the cartoon only. The JLA has had dozens of members over time (some cool, some lame), and you could really make some great additions to the lineup next time. How about Green Arrow, The Atom, or even Plastic Man for that matter? Impress us.

3-0 out of 5 stars A bit more than average super hero game
Recently video games based on a comic or movie license have been in both ends of the spectrum; very good or godawful.Midway's Justice League: Injustice For All is based from the cartoon (not the comic which also features Aquaman, Green Arrow, and Captain Marvel) and is pretty average on just about every level.You get to play as Superman, Batman, The Flash, Wonder Woman, Hawkgirl, Martian Manhunter, and Green Lantern and fight your way through 12 stages.Characters can be switched during levels which consist of fighting regular not much thought put into cookie cutter thugs until finally facing a boss which you must find keys to unlock the area he is in.All of the characters are rendered nicely and each of they're respective powers are here and nicely done as well (Martian Manhunter's moving through walls has been brought to the small screen with grace) but just about everything else is just average.If you take away the Justice League license you'll be left with just a run of the mill action platformer, but hey, this game could have been a lot worse.All in all, Justice League: Injustice For All may not be the best game for the GBA, but fans of the comic or cartoon should give it a look. ...
