Movies to Video Games Review -- Aladdin (SNES & GBA)

Movies To Video Games Reviews
Review #1
(Version 2.0)

Second and now official version of my first review.

Wasn't happy with the way the first one came out so this is now the official review as far as my reviews go. New write up, more info and fits int o the theme of the newer reviews found on my channel.


Aladdin for the Super Nintendo and Game Boy Advance is fully reviewed. Majority of this review was done playing the Game Boy Advance version with some Super Nintendo gameplay moments also mixed in.

Just a reminder, keep attacks and flames off of here. See my FAQ for more on this.

Comment, rate and subscribe and look for more to come. Hope you enjoy the re do of my first review ever done way back when.

And remember .. suggestions and feedback welcome and encouraged.

In the means of saving space the score tallies used to get to the final score are listed here instead of in the review itself. They are on a 1-10 scale with 10 being the best score possible and are as follows:

Story Accuracy to the Movie 5.5
(Cutscenes are true to the movie. Taking moments right from it and text as well. But after those end you are doing things that Aladdin really never did or should be doing.)

Music Soundtrack Accuracy to the Movie's 5.0
(The SNES version has a lot of songs from the movie and they sound pretty good when they do show up. Of course there is a lot of generic type stuff in the out of places stages but that is expected. The GBA version though is a disaster having none of the songs from the movie or even from the SNES version..)

Game Difficulty 5.5
(Overly easy and straight forward at points and frustrating and annoying at others. The game isn't really hard per say just the hard parts are more due to bad play control and doing platform and springing moments that are just never enjoyable and often lead to falling into bottomless pits only to have to do the moment all over again.)

Overall Fun 6.0
(The game is fun for the most part. But the replayability will be low once you get all the red gems and played it a few times. With other better options out there to relive the movie it doesn't have much to offer if you are looking for the best Aladdin experience. But it pulls off the game well enough. Just should have been so much better and much more fun than it turned out to be in the final product.)

Final Score: 5.75
Average

Awesome review i was wondering if you would review batman begins movie game cause i love your reviews and I'd love to hear your opinions on the Batman Begin's Movie Game

[Movies2GamesReviews]

@SuperCodyvideos It's on the list already and I do plan on doing those as well. Stay tuned for those in the not too distant future. And thanks for the feedback.

[TCgamerboy2002]

I was wondering when you would get to those. If I can be honest, Capcom-made disney games have always ranged from playable to great. You gotta agree with me on that part.

[Movies2GamesReviews]

@TCgamerboy2002 Capcom makes great games. I would never say otherwise. I'm a big Capcom fan. But there was better Aladdin games made by Disney themselves on the other systems as seen in my other Aladdin review which tops this one for the listed reasons. But yes I do agree with you on that.

I gotta say this review is so much better than The Irate Gamer Aladdin review.

[darkusbowser524]

Hey man I have a little bit of news to tell you could you do a review of alddin for the sega genisis or tim burtons a nightmare before chrismas oogie boogies revenge on xbox or on gba

[Doommaster1994]

@Movies2GamesReviews There's also a NES version of this game, but it was unlicensed.

The new 3d alladin game kicked ass. Played it all the time when i was a kid

[james42519]

why didn't you do the geneses too. they are different games made by different companys but it is still aladdin.

[powerpup97]

Why does nobody ever acknowledge the Genesis version of this game? That was WAY better than this version!

[TheAtariJunkie]

Man you are a little harsh on this version of the game, but I do have to say that I like the GEN version better as well :)

[SuperCodyvideos]

@Movies2GamesReviews Thanks really love your videos I like how you took an idea never used before and turned it into a channel Because movie games don't usually get fair reviews but i think you are fair but not to fair to the games which is awesome so keep it up!
