Power Rangers Ninja Storm

"It would be a great game, but there's something wrong with it that you notice 10 minutes into playing it."

Intro: Mighty Morphan Power Rangers, and then this, and then that. I don't know if it's just me or not, but I think the Power Rangers out lived their 1,000 years that they've been out. Well, this game would be perfect, but it has one major thing wrong with it, that, to me, is the most important part of a game.

Story: 3/10 I don't like stories in games that much, in case you haven't noticed. I really have no idea what this story is about, maybe something about a mad man trying to take over the world? Destroy it? Ahn, something.

Graphics: 8/10 I'm impressed, seeing as how this comes from the GBA. The rangers themselves look nice, all the badies look good to, along with the backgrounds.

Controls: 8/10 Responsive and easy to learn. The controls are well done.

Gameplay: 10/10 Even better! Well, all it is, basically, is a side-scrolling beat-um-up. But you do have a few moves at your disposal. Like, one minute you'll have a gun, and the next you'll be using a sword. You can select between 6 characters, but you can only play one team at a time. There is the "Rainbow Team" you could call them. They consist of blue, red, and some other color. Yellow, I think. You get the weird dudes, that are all cool and stuff. They come in a pack of two, but I don't remember the colors, although it does't matter. And then you get the army of one, the green ranger. You can switch between any character in a team (except the green one), but it doesn't matter, because they all play the same no matter what anyway.

Replayability: 3/10 This is where the game snowballs. Really snowballs. Once you beat the game once or twice, you won't really have a reason to come back again. If there is stuff you can unlock, there isn't that much. After awhile, it just starts to get kinda boring.

Final Verdict: Nothing I...I really wish I could recommend this game. I really do. But with the low replay value, it just isn't that good. If you really want to try this game, get that new 2-pack thing that has this, and dino-thunder in it.
