Pokemon White for DS

Introduction
I was actually going to review Pokemon SoulSilver, but Pokemon White came out a month ago, so I decided to review that.  This game is actually better, even though pokemon cannot follow you.
Gameplay
This game has 150 new pokemon.  The pokemon are actually moving in the battle, and seasons in the game change every month.  Isn't that cool?  Yeah.  After you beat the game, there are more places you can go, including a city that entirely changes depending on what game your in.  You have to beat the Elite 4 before you get the Legendary, though.  And at one Gym, the leader finds some fainted pokemon at the top of the tower.  You then have to fight many trainers with hard pokemon.  When you get to the top?  She says that it's all better.  Then you ring a bell.  NOT WORTH IT.  Also, the pokemon at the 8th gym are easy, but then there is a huge level change in the Elite Four.  Only with help from Global Trade Station that I got through.
Global Trade and Final Verdict
Now, this has a couple of flaws.  Like, one Lillipup level 1 for a level 100 Zekrom?  NO.  I offer every thing at the other kind of GTS, and they don't like anything. 

I still think this game is awesome.  If you are a pokemon fan, buy it. (If you haven't already)

Top 5 of 2010

Introduction

OK, I think it's good to make a "Best of [insert year here]" at the end of every year.  I know that I haven't reviewed some of these and some were before 2010, but These are the games I thought was cool.

5th place
In 5th place I have to say...  Pokemon Soul Silver (DS)!  It takes some Nostalgia into gaming (Other than Super Mario All-stars and Sonic 4).  Also, YOUR FIRST POKEMON IN YOUR PARTY FOLLOWS YOU!  That's something that even Pokemon Black and White (That I will review when it comes out) doesn't have.  Also, The Poke walker!  It's a great excuse to get outside!

4th place

Surprisingly, It has to be ROBLOX (Internet).  (See what I mean? This was made in 2006.)  Even though there are Idiots infecting the place, If you can find a good server, this game is really fun.  Also, what other Virtual world can you change your BODY MESH?  Only Free realms (Also reviewing later) is what I know of.

3rd Place
This is, Surprisingly, Sonic 4.  The Graphics are awesome.  It was still not the 16 year wait, but it's still cool.  You can do Homing Attack now, too!  Also, You can remember the bonus levels in Sonic 1.  It's here, too!

2nd place
This is TOTALLY Earthworm Jim.  No, not the Sega Genesis nor the SNES, I am Talking about the DSi Version.  This has all the features of the Genesis and SNES combined, plus a Camera feature where you can get 5 Plasma Shots!

1st place
The Best Game of 2010 is...
Super Scribblenauts!
What is better than this?  You can make anything with any adjective!  (There are some limits, though...)  You can now move using the Plus Control pad!  Some of the main levels are stupid, but even the level editor makes up for that!  You can make a lot of levels like some of the Main levels!

Also, I think it's good to show something cool, so...

On Super Scribblenauts, Insert an "Invincible Green Fast Mech" for something cool!

Super Scribblenauts for DS

Intro and Gameplay
This time I am here to say: yes.  Two days ago, I got Super scribblenauts, I was shocked.  Ever had problems with the original Scribblenauts?  In this game, all those problems are taken and fixed
Anyway, In this game, you are Maxwell again.  You can move using the control pad and write adjectives in your words.  That means you can make a Contagious Fire-Breatheing toad or a Giant zombified toilet.

Story mode
  You play as Maxwell and a variety of different characters, and you solve puzzles to get to the Starite.  One is which:
If Girl + Zombie = Zombified girl,  then Mermaid + Bird = what?  The answer is a winged mermaid.  But some are Really stupid.  For an example: If ghost - sheet = invisible ghost, Man - clock = what?  The answer is New Man. 
But, there is a cool new debut of the create-a-tron.  You put items in to make something. For example, one level asks you to make a snowman.  You put in some snow, a carrot, a scarf, a top hat, and some gloves.  It sends out a snowman, and a Starite.
Another Great debut is the fashion show.  There are for judges.  You have to wear something to impress all 4 of them.  For example:  The Judges are a king, A Basketball player, an irish man, and a cheetah.  If you look closely, the Cheetah is Polka Dotted, and the king wears a crown, so you can put on a Polka Dotted Crown.  A basketball player plays basketball and the Irish man likes green stuff, so you grab a green basketball.  You pull the lever, and go on stage.  If all the lights are green, you get the Starite.

Final Decision
If you are good at vocab, get this game.  If you are not, get this game and a dictionary.

Sonic Unleashed for Wii

Intro
Don’t you miss the days where Sonic ran across a 2D stage?  The days the games were actually GOOD!?  Well, you won’t find that in this game.  What you will find is a game made of poison. 

Game play
In this game, dark energy turns sonic into a “Were-hog.”  It sounds like Sonic turns into a pig at night instead of a wolf-hedgehog thing.  Also, we have already seen this before from Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.  Anyway, Sonic falls down to Mobius and meets Chip, basically a copy of Midna from Twilight Princess.  Then you learn about Dark Gaia.  I remember an Internet Ad of a store called Gaia.  So, you go to the temples and collect Emeralds.  You learn that Chip is actually Light Gaia, which sounds pretty stupid to me.  After collecting the emeralds, you fight Dark Gaia.  Chip (or Light Gaia) brings together the temples to Fight.  But how can 100,000 year old temples combine to create a powerful robot?  Anyway, them Sonic turns into Super Sonic to finish off Dark Gaia.  That is pretty much the only “cool” thing about the game.

Epilogue and Final Decision
After you beat the game, you can collect sun and moon coins to access areas, which can unlock power-ups and more missions to collect more coins.  I don’t know what happens next.  I quit playing because of the lameness.  So don’t play this game.  You will be sorry.
(P.S.
Sonic colors is coming out soon, which is basically a copy of Super Mario Galaxy.  This can’t be good.)

Duck Amuck for the DS

Intro and Game play
This time, I am reviewing Duck amuck for the DS.  This game is about torturing Daffy, from lighting a bomb instead of a candle for him to texting insults to him.  The game differs from easy games to difficult ones, but most of them are easy!  Like Daffy says, “And there’s no challenge!  And they’re always hitting you in the head with-” So then you start a really hard mini-game, WHICH ALWAYS SHOWS UP!

The rage meter
In this game, Daffy has a rage meter.  If you get it all the way up, you win the game.  Plus, there are unique mini-games differing from low rage, medium rage, and high rage.  In the low rage, you can play a normal mini-game.  In the large range of medium rage, you play that really hard game I mentioned earlier.  In the high rage, you have a stylus duel with Daffy.
                                                                     
Final decision
If you like torture, this is the game for you.  If you are an animal-abuser-hater, don’t play this game.

 

Portal for the PC

Intro
Welcome to the Aperture Science Aided Enrichment review. Your Specimen has been processed, and we are ready to begin the critique Proper.  Deploying review in 3… 2… 1.

Intro (continued)

This game is called Portal if you haven’t read the title.  You are probably thinking: Darn, this is a PC game.  I will have to download it from the internet and I will probably get a virus.  That is not true.  This game is in a virus free disc available at stores.  Now GO AND BUY IT NOW.  The game is the best game ever.

Game play and graphics
You play as a girl.  You are in Aperture Science for testing.  You go through the test directed by a robot named GLaDOs.  The good part of this game is the Portal gun.  With it, you can create 2 kinds of portals. (Blue and orange) If you step into the blue portal, you go out the orange portal, and vice versa.
The graphics are also great, but why must you play as a girl? And HOW CAN THIS WORK ON A 2008 COMPUTER!?

Internet sensation and final decision
You probably know the phrase: “The cake is a lie!”  That comes from this game.  Now, GO TO THE STORE, GRAB IT FROM THE SHELF, AND BUY IT NOW.  Trust me, you will be GLaD you did.
(Portal 2 is out!  I haven't got it yet, but I will.  Then I will write a review.)

Zwinky on the Internet

Intro
This time I will be reviewing Zwinky, from a website on the computer.  It made me cry inside. 
Your room
You start out with a bed, a dresser, a chair, and a desk.  Who would want a bed the size of a locker and a purple desk?  Some people would, but not much.

Looks
There is a variety of clothes, but it’s not worth it.  When did the Nintendo DS FLOAT IN MIDAIR?  Why is part of the Teddy bear removed?  It’s why the looks are bad.

Walking
This is the worst part of Zwinky.  Your avatar is FORCED to stare at the screen.  Even if you are walking backward, you still stare at the screen.  And you don’t even walk!  You just float from place to place.  Also, you can “walk” through walls. 

Emotions, toolbars, and decisions
When you use emotions, the only things that changes is your face.  When you cry, the flood of water is in your few inch square. 
When you think it can’t be worse, it is.  There is a toolbar with many links you do not want other than Zwinky.  Plus, if you disable that toolbar, it disables your Zwinky account.
If you are a boy or a girl, age 0 – ∞, this is not the game for you.
