Intern Perry is here with another review, this time of the new DS Pokemon title, Pokemon Platinum. Reading his review seems the game turned out very favorable overall. Go to source to check it out in full.

Catching them all is as much of a bitch as I remember—only now there’s about a gajillion more Pokemon to find. There are the usual lulls in gameplay, but at the same time it’s still pretty freakin’ addictive. I honestly can’t put the game down.

My advice for dealing with this issue: do something else while you play (watch a movie, eat lunch, work, etc.).

Overall, not much has changed with the basic formula, and “Platinum” could easily be swapped out for the word “Plus”. Still, it’s nice to see Pokemon evolving with the times, and all the flashy new features are very welcome—and yes, there are a lot of them.

    I lol at the title, this game has probably turned off more pokemon gamers if anything.

    Especially the ones who bought D/P 2 years ago.
    Honestly almost all of these improvements were present in emerald, and they take it out in D/P for more money.

    *please be most pirated ds game, please be most pirated ds game*

    Stick it to nintendo, pirate Pokemon today

    Like every other game, just a bit more obscure and not as good as the old ones since you can't get Charizard in game without trade/import.

    That about sums it up.
