Since it is my 17th birthday today, I figured that I would review one of my all-time favorite games:" Pokémon Yellow: Special Pikachu Edition". I liked this game so much, I asked my dad to get it off of Amazon.com as a birthday present. Anyway, on to the review... Graphics score an 8 because they have been somewhat improved since Red and Blue. One example of this is seen in the improved frontal sprites (back sprite remain the same, though). Sound gets a 9 because although the sound is inferior considering the platform (Gold and Silver vastly improve on this), the music is unforgettable. Addictiveness gets a 10 due to 2 simple facts. Firstly, there's so much to do (about 10 hours worth), and secondly, there are quite a few side quests to engage in as well. Story gets an 8. I will not reveal it here because if you've played a Pokémon game, chances are, you already know it! Depth gets a 9 for reasons of which I've already discussed in this review. Difficulty gets a 4 because, as long as you train your Pokémon regularly, you'll do fine in the game.
