  • And on my right, you’ll see Golden Sun: The Lost Age

    Jun 26 '03
    Pros: story, vivid visuals, nice sound, fun to play
    Cons: only 4 actual characters used in fighting

    Summary: Making an entrance into the world of portable gaming was a little late for me, skipping the GBA and going straight to the Gameboy Advance SP. My first game with the system was Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire, though there was one game that I had been ... read more

  • Something for every RPG fanatic...

    Dec 13 '03
    Pros: Dive into a fantasy world filled with magic and pokemon style pets.
    Cons: Ends too abruptly. Leaves you wanting a lot more.

    Summary: Golden Sun (GS) is a video game for the portable game console, GameBoy Advance (GBA). I could praise it, but I'm not going to. It does have flaws, you know. Every old school role-playing freak should have his (or the rare her) eyes on GS and its ... read more

  • The Sun feels good in my eyes

    Dec 05 '03
    Pros: djinn system, battle system
    Cons: gets boring after a while no replay value

    Summary: One of the few RPG's on the Game Boy platform nowadays (pokemon does not count it is simply horrible) and it holds true in its name. After beating it I decided to review it to make sure it did not get all lame at the end as many RPG's do. I can safely ... read more

  • The Sun Shines Bright: Golden Sun for the Gameboy Advance

    Jun 28 '03
    Pros: Classic 16-bit RPG gaming returns.
    Cons: Nothing really worth mentioning.

    Summary: While Role-Playing Games (RPGs) may have gained mainstream acceptance during the 32-bit era of gamin ... read more

  • Camelot's golden child

    May 31 '03
    Pros: Total package
    Cons: Too much open-endness

    Summary: Ok, so I’m a little slow… but I’ll be darned if the game gods didn’t bestow a bit of providence my direction anyway. I was late jumping on the Golden Sun bandwagon when it first hit the shelves. In fact, I didn't even start playing the ... read more

  • Every thing is clear, the sun is golden - Golden Sun

    May 29 '03
    Pros: battles are fun, story is interesting and engaging
    Cons: only four characters, Djinni can get annoying

    Summary: I was a little late when it came to the Gameboy Advance scene, though I had my reasons as to why I never got around to buying the original Gameboy Advance. Actually, there was only one reason, and that was because of the dark screen and multiple ... read more

  • Golden Sun; The adventure begins

    May 06 '03
    Pros: Graphics, plot, characters, use of humor, saving feature, somewhat challenging puzzles, battle system, button configuration.
    Cons: Battle music gets repetitive, long dialogues, sleep mode virtually useless, almost never any items dropped.

    Summary: When the game first begins, falling boulders from Mt. Aleph are destroying your hometown of Vale. The mountain is said to hold Sol Sanctum, the resting-place of the four elements holding back the power of Alchemy. The villagers back in town are using a ... read more

  • Golden Sun : The Lost Age, no longer lost.

    Apr 16 '03
    Pros: Huge game, best graphics on GBA, Great music, new and old flavor
    Cons: Confusing due to unexplained things

    Summary: I grabbed this game just today. It was standard price, $30. It's the sequel to Golden Sun, the first RPG on the GBA. I must say it appears to live to to it's predesecor. The first Golden Sun was on a 64 mb cart. That was pretty big. But GS2 is ... read more

  • Golden Sun is the Best RPG on GBA~

    Apr 05 '03
    Pros: Great Animation, Good Story plot, Great Puzzles to solve
    Cons: Puzzles difficult without walkthrough, limited usable characters

    Summary: Golden Sun (GS) was the first GBA game I got. Or rather... I bought my Gameboy Advance after I played Golden Sun (on an emulator). Yup! I'm one of those cheapskates who play games on emulators, but GS is just sooo good that I went out to buy it. ... read more

  • Can't wait for sequel

    Mar 27 '03
    Pros: A GREAT GAME THAT LASTS AND IS QUITE ENTERTAINING WITH A GOOD PLOT!!!!
    Cons: screwed up sounds when characters talk

    Summary: This is a very entertaining game that binds the gamer with the beginning and pulls them into a thickening plot. The game has some dumb entertaining characters with an controllable character name that has a very good ending and well-worth your time. ... read more

  • Journey Around The World And Forget Your Big Important Quest

    Feb 24 '03
    Pros: Graphics, summons, music, puzzles
    Cons: Can't hold enough items, random encounters get annoying, characters forget about their main quest

    Summary: RPG's have been my favorite genre for many years. But lately I haven't really played any that have been really good. Golden Sun caught my eye sometime early last year and when I got my GBA for Christmas, GS was my first thing to get. Everything I read ... read more
