    Possibly the best Pokemon game yet.

    As most people know this is almost the same game as 2007's Diamond and Pearl. It's basically the 'director's cut' of those games.. However it is freaking great Director's Cut! Now.. I don't reccomend this to casual Pokemon fans that already have Diamond and Pearl, but If you are either:

    A. A Harcore Pokemon Fan
    B. Someone who missed out on Diamond or Pearl

    Than I whole-heartedly reccomend this game! The Pokemon aren't as great as the earlier gens, but the deceptivily deep battle-system and the vast world make this a great game.. You could dump hours upon hours onto this game.

       You don't need them anymore...well maybe for the exclusives in those versions but that is the extent of your need. Platinum is a much needed fix on the games, improving an incredibly slow user interface that made an average Pokemon Battle last 5 to 10 minutes instead of a minute and under.  The difference in that speed is truly mind boggling and more so that Nintendo let the slow user interface of Diamond and Pearl release into the wild.  Other changes present involve the battle tower like the ...
