Pokémon HeartGold/SoulSilver

games4life's Pocket Monsters SoulSilver (Nintendo DS) review

Was it good?

I have to say that I've only played Soul Silver, so maybe I can't make a full review but I thought it was okay. It seemed to just to be a newer version of Crystal. The graphics were cute, that was the only real difference I saw and the Pokemon. I worked my up through the game and I was bored, I think it may have been possible to make it better. For instance, instead of making it the same old story line for Crystal why not change it a bit. The makers may have wanted to let everyone see Crystal in a newer form but since they did that I'm sure they  could have changed the storyline more. They could have added a twist to the plot at least that would surprise players! Hopefully Heart Gold is a little more different and unique enough to pique the interest of players to be absorbed for quiet awhile :)  I feel that Soul Silver was a nice little game, kind of boring even as far as pokemon goes but it's good for anyone who is a fan of pokemon.

It isn't often that a single game can shape an entire generation. For some, it was Pac Man or Pong. For others it might have been Super Mario Bros. or The Legend of Zelda. I grew up when Pokemon was that game. We were the target demographic, the legions of Pokemaniacs who would eat up every bit of merchandising, rave about the cartoon, and spend all of our parent's money in the process. Looking back however, I realize how many left their experience after Red and Blue, never venturing past their ...
