Message: [QUOTE="tropicalavera, post: 36397, member: 143"] They're definitely INTERESTING?? The Game Boy Wars games are fairly good craic (you can skip the first and just play Turbo instead) with their weird grid layouts and simple graphics - but you'll find that they play out pretty differently from Advance Wars; maps tend to be smaller, chokepoints are less frequent due to aformentioned weird grid, and there's generally a lot less content than you see in AW in general. Super Famicom Wars is a lot closer to what Advance Wars would be known for, and is worth playing to see it in its prototypical embrionic state (great soundtrack too). However, if the thing that draws you to Advance Wars is the characters, the campaign, and the wealth of content on offer then...yeah, you're probably best just revisiting those! Ultimately these games are just a lot of dudes slowly shuffling into other dudes - always have been and always will be! (that being said - game boy games are so quick and easy to emulate at the drop of a hat, so there's really no harm in trying Game Boy Wars Turbo out for 10 minutes to see what it's like) [/QUOTE]
