Keep the Comic Book Universe Games Coming, October 23, 2005
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Teen Titans (Video Game)
Im gonna get right to the point. Overall a very fun game. Its listed here as 5 stars but Amazon wont let me pick 4.5 stars. I give this game a 4.5 on all counts. Its a great action/advaneture/beat em up/side scroller game. It has everything to keep you entertained. You can switch between any of the 5 team mates at anytime. Each hero with their own unique powers. Beast Boy, Raven, & StarFire all have the ability to fly in the air & never come down unless needed. The art design is exactly like there cartoon network counter parts. I wish this game was on the Nintendo DS rather then Gameboy Advance. But atleast i can play this GBA game on my GameCube. I do wish they pushed the power of the Gameboy Advance as far as they could on this game to make the graphics look amazing. Other than that its very fun, pretty visuals & nice 2 have your favorite heroes on the palm of your hands. I cant wait till the GameCube/PS2/XBox version comes out. A must have for game & comic book fans alike.

GO!, November 9, 2005
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Teen Titans (Video Game)
Ok, I'm really tight with my money so I tried to find this used at the local stores and couldn't so I finally just paid the 29 bucks and I think it was well worth it. Being able to switch characters any time you want makes it as cool as XMEN Legends gor the cube...Considering there are 5 playables and they all have different special attacks--I think Majesco slammed a homer. I love BeastBoy's rhino charge and Raven's black shield. What I don't like---is if you didn't get far enough into a level when you save, you have to start back at the beginning of that level. Tip--don't save at end of levels, save at beginning of the next level to assure you get to start on the new level when you continue. :) Great game--switching off characters with such ease easily makes this one of the best GBA games EVER.

Teen Titans for the GBA, July 29, 2006
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Teen Titans (Video Game)
I will admit, I'm 16 and still find Teen Titans to be highly entertaining as a tv show, and I was secretly hoping they would make a game based on it because I saw potential. I was hoping for a fun game that takes advantage of their wacky personalities, and also use of each of the five Titans special powers. Luckily, my hopes were answered very well with this game for the Game Boy Advance.
You start off with the Hive busting into the Titan Tower, and after you chase them off you are left to wonder what they were doing there in the first place. But shortly after you realize that they have actually cloned your titans, leaving you to fight these replicas. Enemies are never hard, but rather a fun challenge. Take Jinx for example. She has the ability to drain your life and give restore hers, as well as messing up your controll pad, making you walk backwards instead of forwards and etc. However, like I said, it's never too hard, just fun.
And as I hoped, you can change you characters on the fly just by holding the L button and selecting your titans. Also, a nice bonus is that your titans don't share health meters (meaning that if Starfire is almosts dead, then you can switch to Beastboy and start anew with full health while Starfire's stays low.) Plus, your enemies will be colored, which indicates their weakness. So, if an enemy is yellow, you should switch to Starfire and they will die easier, blue for Cyborg, Red for Robin, etc. And this all in all equals up to a fun, colorful game.
However, there are reasons I knocked it down a few stars. Playability is solid... however, since this is the GBA combos are VERY limited. And after a while you find yourself just doing the same moves over and over again. Also, is it just me, or is there a dominant color in the game? For me, I constantly found myself with yellow enemies, making me use Starfire throughout a lot of the level, which also meant her health inconviently stayed low throughout most of the levels. But that was the only playability flaw, which is very minor making it potential to be a GREAT game series.
My only other nag is that the game is so short. A mere 6 levels really is hardly worth 30 dollars. But still, each of the six levels are fun, colorful, with fun bosses. So all in all, the game can keep anyone entertained (well, anyone who doesn't automatically write off Teen Titans as a childish kiddie game.) And it is definately worth your time if your a fan of the series.
