Serious answer;
It's good fun. It is similar to the past one in how the levels are rather plain but it works out. Lots of levels, lots of things to do, great narrative, great graphics.
Seriously, the 3D is awesome. It is just as if you were looking down on a table to play with toys.
I've been rushing through the story, had about 6 hours play and am about 70% through the storyline. Not been returning to areas to get other Pokémon or anything. There is good substance to this game
