though the link cable mode isn't much to write home about, it's enough to increase the replay value further when you've conquered the adventure.

In a word, the control scheme perfection. The controls are easily accessible. You'll forget about the piece of plastic in your hands. But what really elevates this game is the unique sleep mode. In this made, your screen goes blank and you conserve power...read the complete Golden Sun review at PGNx Media
This is an epic quest, full of the usual RPG clichés regarding good and evil. The game is set in a world shared by two immense continents, Angara and Gondowan. Alchemy rules over the land and there are individuals (Adepts) that can telekinetically move...read the complete Golden Sun review at Cubed3
high on my list, for quite a long time. That said, when an RPG can captivate me long enough to get drawn in, that game is extremely impressive. Imagine my surprise when, on a whim, I picked up Golden Sun at Target (mainly because it was on sale at the tim...read the complete Golden Sun review at Netjak
The story is rather cookie-cutter in its design. Your name is Isaac. You and your friend, Garrett, are children from the village of Vale at the foot of Mount Aleph. As residents of this precariously placed hamlet, you are gifted with the ability to use...read the complete Golden Sun review at RPGFan
In a time when the market is flooded with RPGs (most of which are garbage), it's nice to see a game that isn't afraid to go back to the basics: turn-based battles, simplistic graphics, more puzzles than you can shake a stick at, and a storyline that is...read the complete Golden Sun review at Jaded Gamer

The story is set in the small village of Vale wherein the people who live there are happy and peaceful. What is known about these people is that they are magic users. They are capable of wielding Psyenergy, a power capable of controlling the elements....read the complete Golden Sun review at Gaming Target
So what exactly is making me flap my little gums so enthusiastically? Golden Sun is at heart a traditional RPG, it has a party based system with a (not too frequent) turn based combat and a typical fantasy setting, the thing is, everything it does is...read the complete Golden Sun review at Gaming Illustrated
The storyline in this game is pretty awful. At the onset the story line is enthralling and keeps you on the edge of your seat, but after a few hours the storyline seems to drag on and makes your character accomplish completely superfluous tasks. I...read the complete Golden Sun review at Into Liquid Sky
Golden Sun was a great RPG (Role Playing Game) on Nintendo´s first 16-bit console: the SNES. Many great RPG´s followed, but Golden Sun was one to remember...
I´ll start trying to explain how it´s possible to get such a score (99%) is possible.
