Well here is a game worth the time. Pokémon has finally moved into 3 dimensional figures. I would like to compliment this game for being a fun expect on the matter. This game has many other ways to surprise me . Pokémon Stadium, and a awesome great game which has the ability to let you play Pokémon in 3 d.  Unless you've been living under a rock for two and a half years you've heard about the Pokémon craze. Nintendo has released hit after hit of Pokémon games with many more on the horizon. This craze comes to the Nintendo 64 in the form of Pokémon Stadium; a game in which you once again battle Pokémon, but in an arena type environment. While this is a new and good way to battle your Pokémon, and the game isn't just battling, I just found something very amazing, and hard hitting/ hardcore battles. This is a nice game. Well let me get started with this review .

Graphics: 10
The first thing that almost everyone wants to do when they plug this game in is to start battling either the computer or a live enemy. The one thing you will notice right away is that there are several differences from the Game Boy's combat system. The two main ones is the fact that you gain no experience from any of the battles and that you cannot use any of your items in battle. Another thing that people will have to get used to is that during most events, only three of your chosen six Pokémon may be used in battle. With this in mind, several of your strategies may need to change so you don't need to count on certain things. With these changes in mind, the fighting scheme is exactly like the Game Boy games, except in 3-D. That  is really some of the great things on this game. Now I know most of you are used to 2 D figures this game makes big differences. 

Sound: 8
The music in this game generally remains in the background and you hardly notice it. While this means that it doesn't really have an annoyance factor, there also isn't any stellar compositions to make this game memorable to the ear. One thing that can get annoying however is the announcer. With a very limited words of speech, and continual comments throughout every single action, it certainly is a nice option to be able to turn this guy off. So yes basically, I would say the music isn't half bad, but the thing that can get highly annoying, if how the announcer says things that the ear does not need to here.

Addictiveness: 7
This game unfortunately doesn't have a whole lot to offer in originality. You can take pictures of your Pokémon, but the views and backgrounds are quite limited. If you have a Pokémon that you want a picture of and it's in Pokémon Snap, take it there and you'll have a much nicer shot. The mini-games aspect of Stadium is enjoyable, but somewhat limited in my opinion. These games could have used some extras in them such as choosing different Pokémon, choosing different backgrounds, or even more mini games. One of the things that I did like in Stadium however is the fact that you can find out a lot more about your individual Pokémon and their attacks. Learning exactly the accuracy and power level of an attack is a definite good thing. Still however in my opinion, I still think very highly of this game, and it does have it's moments to the fact it gets way better than expected .

Story: 1
My main beef of this game is that it *has no plot*. There is absolutely no storyline to Pokémon Stadium unless you count the fact that you can play the your Game Boy cartridges, which I don't. I have always preferred my games to have some sort of attraction besides mindless fighting. This game does offer more, but not much. Still though it is quite annoying how the game has no absolute story over anything. All this game is all just battles. I know that is a good thing, but it would have been nice if we could embark on a great adventure. That would have been a much bigger improvement towards this game. If only it would be like that I would have the balls to say that is the best game ever. 3 D adventure. Sounds pretty whop butt don't you think .

Depth: 6
Well I really wouldn't get high hopes for this game, but if I can say it is quite interesting. Nice long, and on the run. Still all it is is simply Pokémon battles. Nothing more, nothing less. I would say though you can access other feature on this game like, fighting gym leaders, and other thing, but I still wouldn't be so surprised because it isn't the same as a adventure. This game has a lot to offer, but it would have been a lot more, if it had a plot, and a end game setting. That would be real nice to see, and a lot easier to understand. So basically what I am saying, this game is VERYYY low on depth. I am being 100% serious with you all, if you try out this game expect to have no type of adventure like ordinary Game Boy Advance, or Nintendo games Pokémon Games Point Blank.

Difficulty: 5
  The difficulty of this game really depends on what you're using for Pokémon, and what their levels are. For the cups with lower level Pokémon, strategy is a key issue. In the other cups power comes into play more as you can have many one hit kills if you play your Pokémon right. Overall, if you've got the patience to level up your Pokémon to amazing levels, you should do fine in this game. If you're using rental Pokémon only however, the cups become a lot harder at the upper levels. The Computer is allowed to have higher level Pokémon then what you can rent. The time to truly complete this game greatly varies from person to person. If you only want to finish the game with all 150 Pokémon in the Hall of Fame, it's going to take an awful long time to get them all there. I know because, when I used to own this game for the original Nintendo 64, it took a lot of time out of me to get Pokémon, and I never evan completed that part yet.

Overall: 8.9
This game's main attraction is combat, and luckily for the younger fans of this game, this game is laid out so almost everyone can catch onto the basics as soon as they pick up the controller. This is both good and bad in a way. While you can get into all the attractions this game has to offer quickly, it means that other than your own Pokémon there are very few things you can actually tweak in this game. In conclusion, I feel that Pokémon Stadium is not the worst game out there to play, but it certainly does not hold my attention for long. The game has no definite goal in it besides win the different cups, get additional Pokémon by defeating the Elite Four, or making your Pokémon game play much faster on your Nintendo 64. While fighting your Pokémon is enjoyable, it can get old after a while. I personally played this game constantly for about a week, and then I went on to other things. For me, this game just didn't live up to the hype.

Wow, you have been posting a lot lately. This is a great review and I can see that you must really want that Yellow jersey pretty badly. Anyways this is a really great review and you have lots of detail and effort put into making this review, you broke everything down and you explained everything clearly and in depth. It is very lengthy and descriptive. Very good job. Keep it up and keep making more reviews!

linkmaster99 : Well, this is an awesome review alright! Very detailed and lengthy! Usually I have seen others were they would describe one thing detailed and another thing brief in their reviews (for example: Describing graphics a lot but barely describing sound), but you described everything in your review in a very detailed way! 

Awesome job and keep those reviews coming!

linkmaster99 : Awesome review, man! I really enjoyed reading it. I can see you're improving and developing, nice work!

There was plenty of descriptions and details in this review, I'm really impressed! I was reading a review of yours earlier and I noticed that there were great improvements made! You went into a lot of detail for each section this time, I didn't feel you did in the last ones. Well Done.

I love how you broke down your review into different sections, that was nice to see! It was structured well, it was easy to understand! Nice. 

I would say to disable your layout when writing reviews, I have a learnt that from the past. Scrollers make it harder to read. Also, there were some grammatical errors and spelling mistakes made in this review, I would just go over them and fix them! 

Thanks for writing this review! It was thorough and it was enjoyable!

Just because you laid it out like a normal vizzed review doesn't mean we wont check it for plagiarism. 

Don't break rules to win the TDV, it isn't worth it.

This review was plagiarized minus the comments at the end of each section

Local Mods : close and revoke rewards. Here you can see that it was almost entirely plagiarized.  clicky

ender44 : I know what you mean by that, but this wasn't really copy, and paste. I just went to a online review, to look at a few sentences with some things that might help. I just took some things out of the review, and added my own to it. I didn't copy, and paste.
