Rating: - wish i had it
this is one of the best pokemon games ever but get this! i dont even own it. yeah, im serious. my best friends do. ive play it with them all the time.heck, if it wasnt for me, they wouldnt have any purified pokemon right about now. you get eevee, but the great part is you can evolve pretty soon. i love jolteon myself, so that was a good part of the game (my friends have an espeon, which sucks in my mind.) but yeah similar but better than colliseum. great game for all pokemon fans and non fans might take intrest in this game. its kinda confusing at first,but once you get the hang of it its perfect!
also in vs duel mode, there are all sorts of pokemon that you can use! so buy buy buy buy spend spend spend! oh yeah did i mention BUY THE GAME! DO IT MAN! YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO! SO GET THIS GAME!
Rating: - I'm a grown up kid
OK...I'm a grown adult, but I love this game. It's basically a RPG/strategy game. Not really hard like a Final Fantasy, but tons of fun. Graphics are great, but the music does get repetitive after awhile.
Rating: - AWESOME
My mom is letting me review this game. I got this game and loved it! I am 9 years old and would recommend this game to any other kid who likes pokemon and video games. I play this game at least once a week.
Rating: - Awesome Follow Up to Colosseum
My son loves Pokemon, both cards and video games. He plays several games on the Nintendo DS and has Pokemon Colosseum for the GameCube. He was able to pick right up with Pokemon XD and thought it was even more fun than Colosseum. I definitely recommend this game for any Pokemon lover.
Rating: - The Colosseum Upgrade
Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness is almost identical to Pokemon Colosseum, except for several changes were made to make the game much more interesting and fun to play. For example, the graphics are improved, battling has been slightly altered, and you have a new character to start out the game with. As with any game, this game has its pros and cons.
Pros:
- A wider choice of Pokemon to use throughout the game
- Straightforward storyline
- The problem-solving and puzzle parts of the game are not too difficult to figure out
- Much better graphics
- Easy controls
Cons:
- Battling can become monotonous
- Not too much depth to the storyline
- Not a whole lot to do after the game is beaten
- Not much appeal for replayability
In all, the game is good, but there are a few minor and occasionally irritating drawbacks that affect gameplay. However, depending on how big a fan you are of the Pokemon franchise, these drawbacks can be overlooked.
