I was amazed when I first started playing this game Golden Sun rivals some of today's 3D console RPGS even though it plays old-school. Golden Sun is far from being the most innovative game in its genre but its the amount of polish, great gameplay, and longevity that make it such a strong contender. Anyone who has played any SNES RPG should know what to expect here but they key is that developer Camelot did so much to make such an older style RPG so completely relevant is what really shocked me. Gameplay is typical tun-based combat but the graphics look spectacular for a GBA title and they help bring the battles to life and are super duper detailed. Dungeons in this game are excellent I found some puzzles in these caverns had me truely puzzled for a really long time which is a good thing; I really had to use logic and thinking to solve them the puzzles in Golden Sun are brilliant. Music and sound are top notch many beautiful catchy tunes will take your breath away and the many sound effects are well done. Overall I think Golden Sun is one the best games I have ever played it works so hard to make a well polished game that plays totally old-schol.
