  1. The ultimate Pokemon game, but only because it's a niftier update of Diamond and Pearl. [June 2009, p.72]
  2. As with all the third versions made after the main two, this offers something a little different for you. And this seems to offer the most extras to gamers than previous versions.
  3. It is a solid, and incredibly polished, RPG. It feels like a first-party Nintendo release, with all of the pleasing quirks and satisfying balance which that often entails.

  1. I would say it isn't boring. Iike the raining snows kind of thing and the newer and badder bad guys. The story is insane and it's much better than black and white. I must say no one can surpass its greatness. No one!!! Expand

  2. Reviewing Platinum, Diamond, and Pearl overall, they're simply unimpressive and formulaic, recycling far too familiar material from the previous games. Pros: Polished graphics and visuals; new Pokemon and features; Nintendo WFC make battling and trading funner than ever. Cons: Formulaic; generic; too many recycled elements from its predecessors make this trio feel far from original. Expand

  3. Pokemon Platinum was one of the lamest sequels in Pokemon history. It was like a more polished, clean version of Pokemon Diamond and Pearl. There were only seven new Pokemon that were forms of other ones. The plot mostly stayed the same. Everything was the same other than that, other than a few little changes here and there. To sum it up, if you got Pokemon Diamond/ Pearl, DO NOT BUY THIS GAME because this game was like the polished version of it, yet if you did not get it, this would be a very intriguing and fun game to use your time on.
