1.0 out of 5 stars THIS GAME SUCKS!!!, June 24, 2004

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Battlebots Design & Destroy (Video Game)

This robot game is the worst gameboy game that I have ever had!!!The controls are bad:L=R, R=L, U=D, D=U, plus if you put them into reverse, nothing changes.The problem about "design" and destroy is that you choose from 3 of 4 different weapons, a chaisis, armour, tires, and an engine. In other words, you don't really DESIGN anything.

4.0 out of 5 stars Battlebots! But is it Worth it?, November 27, 2003

By 

Amazon Buyer (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Battlebots Design & Destroy (Video Game)

Yes! This game is very fun. The only problem is that it's very short (only 16 battles in tournment mode) and the battles are pretty easy (except in the beginning when you have almost no $). Brawl mode is TONS of fun because you can duke it out with up to 3 other people using you own bots or bots from the Battlebots TV show. I just wish my friends had this game so that i could battle them. I would finally like to add in response to all the new reviews that yes, you can load your game from before. It does take a little bit of figuring out but you can load your game.

Ratings:

Graphics: 10/10

This game has great 3D graphics for a GBA game and the bots/arenas are very detailed (you can even see stickers on some of the bots).

Sound: 8/10

Don't expect world class soung out of a GBA but the sound is nice. The killsaws sound authentic. When I use my Philips behind-the-head headphones the sound is very crisp.

Gameplay: 9/10

Gameplay is perfect and fun except for the fact that the Tournment Mode is too short.

Battlebots Authenticity: 9/10

The bots and Battlebox are authentic but some of the stadiums and weapons aren't (ex: volcano).

Options/Choices: 10/10

The fact that you can decide:
1)how many bots are in a Brawl
2)whether to play in arcade or simulation mode
3)the amount of time the fight lasts
4)and the large weapon/tire/chassi/armor/motor/battery selections all contribute to the 10/10.

Fun: 10/10

What's better than robots beating the life out of each other? Controlling robots as they beat the life out of each other! That's exactly what this game is.

Overall: 56/60

This game is great in all ways and I would suggest that all Battlebots enthusiasts, and people that just like battlebots in general, get this game.
