Crystalis

I personally loved the game! I have to admit it gets frustrating sometimes, but keep trying. But in what RPG do you get to ride a dolphin? Or use a spell that changes you into another person (Well, I haven't played any). Overall, if you own a GBC, and like RPG's, GET THIS NOW!

As any gamer over the age of fourteen knows, all of the best games were made for all of the old systems. Modern games waste too much time trying to look pretty and sound cool. I do like that, but I play games mostly because they're fun, and this game is just that, and still managed to have some of the best graphics, music, and quests of its time.

Some people say that Crystalis is better than The Legend of Zelda. I say that those people drank too much Kool-Aid. While Crystalis is an excellent adventure/RPG it does not measure up to the greatest adventure game of all-time. But the fact that it is even close tells you that it is an extremely fun game that should be picked up by any adventure game fan.

Finally, Crystalis is very fun. You can save your game in two slots and play the game another time. You should get around 50 hours out of this game if you don't use walkthroughs or stuff like that. Believe me, I've only scratched the surface to this great game. If you can find it, GET IT!! One last note. The bosses and enemies on Crystalis are AWESOME, especially near the end.

Despite some flaws, Crystalis is a fun game. Worth buying if you loved the NES game and want to try a "remixed" version of it. If you have never played the NES game, buy this or borrow it from a friend. I would recommend it for a long flight, or a nice dose of -albeit tainted- nostalgia. Crystalis is one of those great little games you need to try at least once.

Anyway, if you were too young to remember The END DAY, as most gamers and Internet users seem to be…. Be…. To seem.… Then, maybe you’d prefer to play Super Smash “Bros.” Brawl, or some other modern hype-fest. If you can appreciate a Xenogears of the 8-bit era like Crystalis, however, you should definitely check out it!
