5.0 out of 5 stars Omega Factor - Supreme, 18 Feb 2005
By A Customer
This gem is easily one of the year's best on the GBA

Combining Challenge, Excitment and Strategy into one powerful game. Anyone can enjoy this game, fighting your way through treasure ridden levels to fight the dominating boss at the end.

You'll be able to find a true challenge on the "Normal" or "Hard" modes -- even with the provided unlimited continues. Treasure has truly mastered the player's learning curve, offering just enough challenge without ever leading to frustration. Levels seemingly impossible on the first go round can effectively be mastered with time, causing for each payoff to be that much greater. Completing each level (and more importantly, each boss) feels like a true accomplishment.

5.0 out of 5 stars 2D Excellence!!!, 10 Nov 2006
By Mr. W. J. Curley "LEAD!" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Astro Boy is developed by Japanese company 'Treasure'. Treasure have an unparalled pedigree when it comes to quality 2D games. Such Treasure games as Gunstar Heroes, Guardian Heroes and Ikaruga are respected by gamers across the globe as some the finest pure games ever created.

It seem surprising that the next legendary Treasure game should be an innocous licensed GBA game! Astro Boy GBA is a truly awesome Treasure game :)

Graphically it's stunning, with beautiful animated touches. Gameplay is perfect with an amazing feeling of weight behind Astro's punches and kicks for a game on a tiny screen. You can do lots of cool combos too using the flying kicks. There's also 2D shooter levels where Astro flys using his rocket-boots....and the bosses are simply superb, you need alot of skill to beat them but they are very satusfying to beat the snot out of once you have figured out their patterns.

As Astro Boy progresses through the levels you can power up certain elements like the power of his finger laser, his health bar or how many rocket-boosts he can do. This adds some strategy to the game as you can't complete Astro's abilities on your first run-through of the game.

There's also lots of characters to meet in the game that give you upgrades and some alternate routes you can take through the level on your second run through the game (once you have clocked it twice you can access the true final boss).

I can't say enough good things! Buy this game, support Treasure and realise that 2D gameplay is still the best ^^.
