Astroboy really does it for me in the way that ellicits that old school feel in a new school age. Been really refreshing for me.

I knew it was gonna be pretty sweet. I mean duh, Treasure developed it. Check out Advance Guardian Heroes too. Not as good as Astro Boy, but developed by the same company. Also, Graduis V for PS2 is another Treasure game that came out recently. I need to pick that one up. Anyways, yeah, Astroboy uses 2D gaming nostalgia in a good way. Although we don't really get games like this on our consoles anymore (beside Viewtiful Joe), I'm glad at least there is a system to play stuff like this on (GBA).

I got to play it a bit, and it's quite good. It reminds me of classic gaming and a little Viewtiful Joe style on the handheld. I'll definitely consider getting it if I find it really cheap or after the horror of the holidays are over.
