Although the bulk of the generic pokemon stories are pretty much always the same you never tire playing them.  Pokemon Platinum is the next level up in pokemon games, I thoroughly enjoyed every minute! Read full review »

Pros - All legendaries from this gen. available<br>- More replayability
Cons - The game is too short<br>- Elite four go up in level after first battle
Recommended it? Yes

Every time a new dual series pokemon game comes out (ex: Pokemon Diamond and Pearl) it is followed by a better version that fuses the two and allows you to catch both of the legendaries from each game, adds a new legendary pokemon, and gives more features than either of the two preceding games...

great product.  bought it to go w/ my diamond version.  already having the other version made the 1st half of the game very boring, but the bonus features and extra pokemon storage were worth the cost. Read full review »

Pokemon platinum is a great game that bridges pokemon pearl and diamond. Now, you can get the pokemon you could'nt from just having a Diamond version or a Pearl version! Introducing the star pokemon Giratina, you may now go to the new distortion world that Giratina resides in!

These games really are great. Although they all have the same basic layout and objectives, I find them very hard to get bored of, despite being much too old for them and having been playing every one made since pokemon yellow.
There are loads of new pokemon to collect, each more diverse and... Read full review »

Pokemon: Platinum is basically an enhanced port of Diamond and Pearl. Some new monsters, new world, but same old gameplay and mechanics since the gameboy days. Only poke fantics should buy this average port. Read full review »

Pros Plenty to do, good graphics, easy learning curve
Cons A couple pokemon can't be collected without other cartridges

Some might think that this could mean that it is too similar to others in the series but why change... Read full review »
