Set off on a thrilling 3D adventure that takes you to places the Pok~mon franchise has never gone before. Pok~mon Y travels to the breathtaking land of Kalos, a star-shaped, enchanting region brimming with stunning forests, buzzing cities and many brand-new Pok~mon. Gaze upon the wonder of the iconic tower in the center of Lumiose City, as you battle, catch and add to your Pok~dex an array of new Pok~mon that join the 640 you've already encountered. The Trainer is only as good as his Pok~mon, so get ready to fight for glory with the powerful new creatures at your fingertips in Pok~mon Y.Meet Helioptile, a Normal- and Electric-type Pok~mon who can generate powerful electricity from sun-bathing to power machinery. While it may display a lack of bravery, its robust Parabolic Charge move makes up for it when Helioptile attacks everything around it. Its HP is restored by half the damage taken by those hit for a significant addition to your Pok~dex. Fletchling, a Normal- and Flying-type Pok~mon, may take adversaries by surprise, since behind its beautiful chirp and friendly personality lies relentless battle attacks, such as Flame Charge. In addition to doing damage, Fletchling's speed increases every time it unleashes this move. Normally sporting a leaf in its mouth and an intimidating glare, Fighting-type Pok~mon Pancham shows its softer side and lets out a smile when you pat its head. During battle, however, Pancham lets loose daunting moves, including Parting Shot, which not only lowers an opponent's Attack and Special Attack, but also allows Pancham to switch out for another Pok~mon in a Trainer's party during battle. Discover a new method of transportation with Gogoat, a large Grass-type Pok~mon who will gladly let you ride its back around Lumiose City. In battle, its Horn Leech move recovers HP equal to half the damage dealt by its move. With so much to explore and so many new Pok~mon to acquire, you're sure to happily spend hours lost within the world of Pok~mon Y.

The American Colonies, 1775. It's a time of civil unrest and political upheaval in the Americas. As a Native American assassin fights to protect his land and his people, he will ignite the flames of a young nation's revolution. Assassin's Creed III takes you back to the American Revolutionary War, but not the one you've read about in history books.

My daughter is the primary player, but I have to watch endless hours of her playing on the main TV screen of the house. I have noticed that the frequent cuts to white screen are very annoying. Also the audio cuts in and out and characters frequently talk over each other's lines, making it difficult to listen to the script without reading the subtitles.
