Pokemon White Version Review
Now I know what you're thinking, "Smappy, we know you used to take a lot of drugs, but Pokemon too? What kind of monster are you?" (Actually, yes, that's exactly what I was thinking - Vader) and I don't have a clever response to that question. Pokemon Black and White is the latest in a long line of games about children leaving home to enslave cute cuddly creatures called Pokemon and make these pseudo-magical animals fight for their master's fame and fortune. For Nintendo, the franchise is basically like printing money. Pokemon is a wonderfully deep, yet remarkably friendly strategy role-playing game. I'm not going to delude myself into not believing this is largely marketed to children, but it certainly offers enough for a gamer of any age to enjoy the experience. I kind of like the friendly atmosphere the game has because if Pokemon were to ever receive a gritty reboot it would be nothing but unadulterated nightmare fuel. The most iconic Pokemon, Pikachu, is a rat capable of shooting lightning bolts, which is not something I would like to see angry. The game starts with a greeting by lady Doctor Professor Juniper who asks what your name and gender are.
Pokemon White Version
Though there are minor additions with each consecutive Pokemon iteration, change isn't something Nintendo and Game Freak pursue when creating the popular monster-catching games. Pokemon White is one of the latest dual releases in the long-running series, and while this entry doesn't exactly shake up the basic formula, it offers enough innovation to capture longtime fans all over again, reel in newcomers, and present itself as a legitimate sequel to the series. Initially, the game throws you a curve ball by throwing you into two battles right from the get-go. Once you get past these obstacles, you engage in a series of events that all feel familiar. You say goodbye to your mom, meet the Pokemon professor, receive a briefing by said professor, and head off into the region of Unova. If you've played Pokemon games in the past, these events probably bring back memories. Overall, the setup of the game and even the actual progression greatly resemble previous entries in the series. One big change, however, is the dark nature of the story, which revolves around Team Plasma, a group of villainous crusaders who are out to take trainers' Pokemon away in an attempt to liberate them.
Pokémon Black & White
First generation elitists of Pokémon will be disturbed to note that in this latest installment, 156 new Pokémon have been introduced. There’s a reason we never hear “Gotta catch ‘em all!” anymore—with a current grand total of 649 pocket monsters around, it takes a lot of dedication to catch even half (let alone remember all their names and types). But with a fresh new set of adorable starter Pokémon and many new features, it’s hard to resist a new adventure in the newly introduced Unova region. click to enlargeIf you're fan of Pokémon, you know the drill—you start at mom’s house, meet up with “friends”, and get to pick a companion from three Pokéballs presented to you by a local Professor. Only this time, the Professor is a woman (finally!) and you sadly don’t get to name your rival a four letter word. Out of the three starters, there are the typical water (Oshawott) and grass (Snivy) types, as well as a fire-fighting type to choose from. I choose to quietly accept that there is only one dual-type starter because it is ridiculously adorable, and “Tepig” is a clever name.
Pokemon White Review
One of the cool things about Pokemon is that there's a new audience every year. Current fans are so young that I feel like a creeper every time I go to a Pokemon event. This new audience is part of the reason Pokemon hasn't had to change much of its formula over the past decade and a half. Still, developer Game Freak has taken note of what fans want, and Pokemon Black and Pokemon White improve in ways that longtime fans have been begging for. If you never caught Pokefever during the last four Nintendo handhelds, we have a Pokemon history article you can check out. While Pokemon appeals to a younger demographic, fans stay true because it's a really solid series of RPGs with a lot of depth. Pokemon Black/White Opening Behind the Scenes What's up with all these black lines? Where's the rest of it? Head over to Jack DeVries' blog for the story on why you have to wait for our full review. Game Freak didn't decide to turn the series on its head, and Black/White remains formulaic. You still play a 10-year-old kid who doesn't seem to have a Dad. You still get a grass/fire/water Pokemon from a world renowned Pokemon professor who happens to live in your tiny, three building town.
Pokemon White
Game Freak has spent years building upon a money-making gameplay formula that involves engaging countless critters in addicting rock-paper-scissors style battles on a quest to catch ‘em all. Though the basic mechanics of the franchise have been effective, Pokemon fanatics have been clamoring for the series to evolve for years. While the latest franchise entries, Black and White, don't necessarily make any major leaps in innovation, they do take steps in the right direction. Professor Juniper kicks off the action by sending our matured protagonist on a lengthy adventure to complete the Pokedex, battle trainers across the expansive Unova region, earn gym badges, and ultimately become the Pokemon champion – pretty much standard fare. While veteran trainers might be put off by some of the explanations on how to catch and train Pokemon early on, the action quickly picks up with the introduction of Team Plasma, a group bent on the liberation of Pokemon and releasing them from the selfish demands of their trainers.
Pokemon White Version Review
From the moment you befriend your first Pokemon at the start of Pokemon White, everything is reassuringly familiar: the scientist who sends you out on your adventure, your first encounter with bumbling bad guys Team Plasma, and the stories of a legendary Pokemon that will either save or destroy the world. Some tweaks have been made to the visuals and online functions, and a couple of new battle types have been introduced, but these changes are so small as to be insignificant compared to what Pokemon White borrows from previous games in the series. Original it isn't; yet despite the formulaic nature of your journey and a disappointing storyline, the engrossing battle system makes fighting and catching one of the many new Pokemon as addictive an experience as ever, and it's lots of fun too. There's plenty of time to catch 'em all as well, with a vast world to explore and tons of side quests and postgame content that's a pleasure to play through. Not messing with tradition, Pokemon White begins with you being summoned to the lab of a local Pokemon professor, who this time is named Juniper. She asks you and your two friends--Cheran and Bianca--to help with her research by becoming Pokemon trainers and cataloguing the many species of Pokemon for listing in the Pokedex.
Pokemon White Review
I was recently asked my most anticipated game of 2011. The answer? Pokémon Black and White. This response was met with looks of bewilderment and disgust, gradually evolving into a chorus of laughter - I'd chosen a children's game over the likes of Uncharted 3, Mass Effect 3 and Skyrim. But as a big RPG fan, the most hardcore eastern offering of 2011 is arguably the new Pokémon. It hasn't been too long since I retired SoulSilver to its box, however, and the sting of losing in the first round of the 2010 national Pokémon championships still lingers, was I really ready to wave goodbye to another two hundred hours on a new poké-adventure? The endorphins swimming through my veins after finding the sleek black cartridge that had appeared on my desk alluded to a resounding yes.The start of the game presents you the age-old choice of three Pokémon: Snivy, the serpentine grass starter; fire pig Tepig; and Oshawatt the otter. After making your choice, you're handed a Pokédex from female professor Juniper and then leave the small town of Nuvema to make a name for yourself in the Unova region.
Pokemon White (Preview)
After more than 10 years since the original Pokémon titles first hit Japan, the franchise has shown no sign of slowing down. Game Freak’s remakes of Gold and Silver were evidence that the classic collecting mechanic and rock-paper-scissors style battle system hadn’t lost their luster. Still, Pokémaniacs have anxiously waited for the franchise to take steps in a fresh direction, and with the upcoming releases of Pokémon Black and White versions, these loyal fans won’t have to wait much longer. Pokémon Black and White versions immediately show off the fifth generation’s new direction with an animated cutscene. An uncharacteristically dark scene reveals a crowning ceremony for a mysterious young man with no supporting details as to who he is and the role he’ll play. The scene then jumps to a more upbeat scenario with the signature Pokémon theme song as the words “Hope,” “Dream,” and “Discovery” flash on screen, all the while expansive new environments of the Isshu region and images of a ton of new Pokémon just waiting to be captured are revealed. With a quick introduction by Pokémon expert Dr. Araragi, you’re free to explore the bustling new world.
