4th Gen First Impressions of Platinum

[Tinhead Bruce]

So, many of you have gotten Platinum today, but I'm sure you haven't gotten very far in the plot. So how are your first impressions of Platinum? Is it all you expected it to be? What are some cool things you've found so far, and are there any let-downs?

I'll edit this post when I get the game at noon (GRRR).

 

[mStar]

I didnt get mine yet. But, I'll post as soon as I get it.

 

[drifl00n]

i just got it a half hour ago, i just started playing like 5 minutes ago and i love it already.

 

[Supreme Dirt]

Return TM in the beginning = Win

And the battle GUI has been nicely updated.

Oh, and SNOW!

 

[Yamikarasu]

I'm liking it. Like every single other Pokemon game, it is very similar. However, it does have many minor tweaks that just multiply together to make the game very fun. For example, Prof. Rowan giving you the Return TM at the very beginning.

 

[revelp8]

yup. that return TM will be useful later on in the game.

Spoiler:

I was sort of let down with Mr. Handsome's name being Looker now.

 

[BHwolfgang]

My friend just started it and it looks alright. It's almost like any other game.

I'll be waiting for her to make it to the Distortion World. I want to see that!

WHY DOES EVERYONE HAVE A ROOM MAKEOVER BUT ME!? D=


yup, that's what I thought xD


Pearl has Chimchar...: That Monkey dance. how appropriate. xD

 

[ClassicRockFan]

I found that Bidoof looked uglier than I remembered.

But other than that, Platinum has felt great. (At least, once I got the running shoes)

 

[Keyaki]

just got mine like an hour after Gamestop opened

Total Awesomeness, although i haven't gotten to Oreburgh yet, i keep having to restart because my Chimchar keeps getting the wrong Nature

I didn't even know that it already was out... but Im gonna beg my mom to get it for me. Just because it rocks. Today 01:08 PM

Did you not like....see the commercial?

 

[Ryuzaki_Lawliet]

I got Platinum. I am starting a new file soon cuz I have to go eat... I will post back Later!

 

[System!]

I don't have it but my brother's friend does. Quite cool. He also got the Giratina statue--a lot smaller than I thought. :(

I'm SO saving my money for this game.

Spoiler:

I was watching him play it and apparently you encounter Cyrus early in the game. I was all "ZOMG IT'S MILEY CYRUS!"

 

[Kayin]

Looks great so far. I like the trainer sprites better than in Pearl. :)

 

[Azonic]

I didn't get mine yet, but my impressions from the advertisements were that it would be pretty damn awesome. :B

 

[Game Over1375]

Got it about twenty minutes to go. Impressions, I LOVE IT!

 

[Lightey]

I got it, and I love it.. But my DS got on red, so I need to find the charger. :(

 

[mStar]

Platinum is most certainly updated. I'm so in love wit it<3.

 

[Lycaeus]

Got it around noon, and started playing like 130.
I'm currently at the Oreburgh Gym, about to take it on ^^
I love it so far, everything seems much..idk cleaner
