Product Description
Finally, the Rock has come to the Game Boy Advance. And he's not alone, as he's joined by 23 other WWF superstars in WWF: Road to Wrestlemania. Wrestlers like Stone Cold Steve Austin, Edge, Chris Jericho, Triple H, and William Regal are here to participate in a nice variety of matches in several settings. Basic match types include singles, tag team, triple threat, handicap, and cage matches. WWF novelty bouts such as King of the Ring, Royal Rumble, and ironman matches are also included. Users can select from a variety of rules, including time limits, count outs, pinning victories, submission victories, and hard-core rules. The action takes place in six arenas that mimic the various WWF television shows and pay-per-view events. Best of all, the game supports a link cable, allowing up to four players to participate in the mayhem. The gameplay is surprisingly deep. The simple controls allow for more than 40 moves, including signature finishers. When each wrestler enters the ring his theme music plays to a slick video montage, much like it does on the WWF TitanTron. Unfortunately, the music that plays during the action will get on your nerves. The character models are good, but the animation is a little off, making the wrestlers move in a jerky fashion. Also detracting from the game's flow are moments when the opponent's artificial intelligence seems to blank out, making him stand around for a few seconds. That said, these flaws are relatively minor compared to the depth and variety that's packed into this cartridge. You can finally enjoy the larger-than-life superstars of the WWF in the palm of your hand. --Raymond M. Padilla Pros: - Cool ring entrances, especially Regal's
- Lots of moves
- Nice variety of matches, rules, and rings
Cons: - Sluggish AI
- Jilted animations
- Grating music
Product Description
WWF: Road to Wrestlemania for Game Boy Advance features five in-depth game modes, including exhibition and season. Players can select from 24 top WWF superstars and compete in six different match types in seven different venues. From two-man tag to cage to submission, the most popular matches are represented. With the handheld-optimized gameplay, players can take the drama of the World Wrestling Federation wherever they go.

Product Description
Hawk's back, in the world's first 3D handheld skating game. And he's brought new pros. And new terrain(insane street and vert levels). Get Your hands on a legend.
Product Description
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 doesn't look or play quite like its other incarnations, but the amount of death-defying--or serious injury-defying--tricks you can pull off, and the wild level design, graphics, and responsive controls all work amazingly well for the handheld. With an overhead isometric view and its use of only four buttons, Hawk vets will need to readjust their attacks. Still, we were amazed by how many tricks have been crammed into this cartridge. For the most part, the visuals are clear and detailed and the skaters are incredibly well animated. Gameplay hasn't changed much. Initially, there are six levels available (more are unlocked as rewards). After picking a skater, you must perform tricks and locate items to earn loot for buying new gear, which will enable you to improve your skater's stats and continue to the next skate park. The game is sadly without some of the cooler features of the big consoles. For example, you cannot create parks or skaters, and multiplay is sorely missed. The feeling of accomplishment one gets when perfectly landing a stunt is just as satisfying on the GBA as it is on the PS One and Dreamcast versions. Even folks who don't like skateboarding games will think Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 is a great (and addictive) achievement for the handheld platform. --Mark Brooks Pros: - Incredibly fluid and detailed graphics
- Responsive controls
- Many, many tricks
Cons: - Somewhat steep learning curve for all gamers, even Tony Hawk vets
- Missing features of older versions, such as player and park creation
- No multiplayer feature
Product Description
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, which has been a bona fide hit on every console it has graced, has staked its claim on the Game Boy Advance. The idea is still to perform hundreds of complicated tricks for points, and players can still ride as T. Hawk or any of a dozen pros in the game. Players can create their own skaters from scratch, too, by selecting appearance, gear, clothes, and more. Heck, you can even create your own ideal skate park by building ramps, rails, pipes, and other challenging obstacles.

Product Description
The Birdman returns to hand-held gaming in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 for the Game Boy Advance. Like it's immediate predecessor, this second GBA outing offers an isometric perspective on primo skating locations based on six levels from the 3D console versions of the title. Also following the lead of the console releases, this version of THPS3 features areas that are more interactive, alive with animations and events. Play as Tony Hawk or any of the 12 other pro-skaters featured. Though the four-wheeling heroes are viewed from above instead of behind, Vicarious Visions has developed this title to impart the same style and feel that have made the series so popular. In addition to the single-player challenges, up to four equipped GBA players can also compete together through a link cable. ~ T.J. Deci, All Game Guide.
Product Description
Like Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, Tony Hawk 3 captures the look and feel of the big-console versions but transforms the concept into a third-person, mock 3-D game. This new incarnation keeps the original control scheme but brings in alternate career goals, new tricks (including the revert), and changing environments--they even include pedestrians--across seven global locations. Unlike the last game, however, this version allows players to link up for such multiplayer games as Trick Attack, Graffiti, HORSE, and Tag (one copy of the game per GBA unit and link cable is required). The roster of skaters features Tony Hawk, Elissa Steamer, Jamie Thomas, Rodney Mullen, Eric Koston, Chad Muska, Kareem Campbell, Steve Caballero, Andrew Reynolds, Rune Glifberg, Geoff Rowley, Bam Margera, and Bucky Lasek.

Product Description
Midway's arcade-style boxing game is making its way to the GBA. We had the opportunity to see how the game translates from the Dreamcast and the PS2 to the GBA.
Product Description
Ready 2 Rumble Boxing: Round 2 is the first GBA fighting game, and that's a lot of weight to carry on one's muscular and well-rounded shoulders. But Midway's baby has already been a hit on several systems; it's merged boxing with hilarity and featured wild characters such as Afro Thunder, Mama Tua, and more--all outfitted with power moves and special taunts. The GBA version looks good. It features loads of color, and everything from the taunts to Michael Buffer's famous "Lets get ready to rumble" tagline is intact. Unfortunately, the gameplay isn't. Ready to Rumble 2 for the GBA is a 2-D fighting game, not a 3-D title like the earlier versions. You can move forward and backward, block, and punch. Move while punching and deliver an uppercut or a short jab. There's almost no sense of damage as you hit these poorly animated foes, and this takes all the personality out of the game. There are 11 characters total, some favorites from the original games and two new unlockable ones, including Michael Buffer as Rumble Man (yawn) and... Michael Jackson? There are four modes of play: arcade style, championship, training, and survival (where you've got to fight each opponent until you go down flat). You can create your own boxer if you like, and participate in a few training rituals, such as using rumble pads, lifting weights, and hitting the speed bag. What Ready to Rumble 2 amounts to is a perfectly good, and great-looking, Game Boy Color game, but it doesn't do justice to boxing. It isn't nearly as good as Ready to Rumble on other platforms, and it just doesn't fit in with the other, mostly fantastic, GBA launch titles. --Andrew S. Bub Pros: - A wide range of combatants
- You can build and train your own bruiser
- Lots of minigames to play
Cons: - Flat, unimaginative combat
- Uninspired and dull gameplay
Product Description
Ready 2 Rumble Boxing: Round 2 combines authentic boxing action with outrageous costumes, special moves, taunts, and rumble flurries that are all unique to each character. Throw some quick jabs in the arcade mode or do it Rocky style via the enhanced championship mode, where you'll manage your boxer's training regimen and schedule fights. Use the GBA's shoulder buttons to block that glass jaw and the system's front buttons to throw a hook or one of the other punches in your arsenal. String together some moves that ring your opponent's bell and you'll unlock secret, powerful moves.
