Topic: Pokemon go go go

I've read a couple of stories on Pokemon Go and the game sounds brilliant. Nintendo use mobile tech in its own way and releases a mega hit. Is everyone giving this a go?

I have been playing this the past few days and I am hooked. Probably the best mobile game out there now especially if you are into Pokémon.

@Tasuki: Yes Tasuki, rather catch all the pokemon than all the stds that's what my pokemaster said when I was a kid. Good to hear the games good fun.

@Kidfried: Its bringing communities together and pokespots are popping up. Come on man, we all love Pikachu. If your outside of the bus I'm gonne poke em on. Whoop.

I haven't played it yet but I was driving around a friend yesterday who was.............ended up in the city's cemetery of all things. I can see the appeal for sure.

@Kidfried: No mate, I'm in the UK. Its releasing here later in the year.

I will give it this, it has definitely made people go out alot more, including myself.

I haven't played it but I do know that it is taking over the world.

some girl accidentally stumbled upon a dead person while playing Pokemon Go. Super freaky if you ask me.
Also, my friend found a haunter at the hospital and I'm jealous. Haunter is my favorite Pokemon. (T_T )

It's hard to decide whether this is a game or not since it has no real "gameplay" as it were, but it certainly is revolutionary. As someone who's into running but finds it hard to get motivated for it, Pokemon Go has helped me get up and go for one. Still, I'm cautious about getting addicted to it, simply because I don't want to see myself as a zombie pulling my phone out whenever I go outside. Although there have been some bad stories about it, I love the social aspect of Go since it seems to be bringing people together.

@Anchorsam_9: I think once they add the ability to trade between other players and are able to battle other players then it will be more of game. As it is now it kinda hard to tell.

For anyone in the UK who doesn't know, Pokémon GO is officially out now

I've given it a brief try, but I'm sat at my desk at work so I haven't caught much yet. I have a Charmander, a Pidgey and an Ekans so far. It's quite cool - I like that you have to flick the pokeball at the pokemon at the right angle/speed so you actually hit them, rather than just push a button. I don't think I'm going to be hiking all over the place looking for more pokemon, but it's a nifty little game, and I can certainly see the appeal. It's obviously no replacement for a proper Pokémon game - can't wait for Sun and Moon.

I tried it for a bit yesterday, but my GPS has some problems and so far I've only been able to play with wi-fi connection turned on. Got stopped by a woman in her 50s asking me if I was catching Pokémon too.. It was a weird experience..

I don't do twitter, snapchat, words with friends, tinder, grinder, instagram and barely touch facebook, but I'll be giving Pokémon a thorough run just as soon as I can create an account and log on!

@kyleforrester87: Come on Kyle we all know your on Grinder 24/7. Gotta catch em all. Lol.

Yeah Im too lazy for pokemon go, downloaded it to the wife's phone as mine is a windows phone. Nothing around me, there's a bunch of stuff in the highrise about a mile away funnily enough. You don't wanna go that way in the dark - you would see a real pokemon. Scallywag has rollers in her, pyjamas and trainers on. Her ability to pop out kids is only superseded by her ability to afford 1000 ciggies a week on child benefit money.

@themcnoisy: lol what's the evolved form of a scallywag?

@Kidfried: whirl, wag and wraith. Lmao, amazing.

Wow so I went down to a local shopping center last night and man was it packed with people playing Pokemon Go, it didn't help that this shopping center has 4 Pokéstops and a Gym in it so I guess it became the unofficial Pokémon gathering spot for the city. I ducked into a Gamestop to browse while I was there and then employee there told me that since it came out the place has seen a huge increase of traffic there.

It's was interesting seeing people of all ages, race, male, female just sitting around talking, catching Pokémon and just hanging around in large numbers having a good time.

I do not know anything about Pokemon but i do know its a thing. I saw some kid found a deAd body when they were playing this game seems anything can happen in pokemon go. Its strange how some games catch the imagination and then become massive hits where others which are better games just die by the wayside. The concept of Pokemon go seems good but I do not have mobile data just wifi so not sure the game can be played without a constant internet connection. Good luck to everyone and if you beat finding a dead body then kudos to you.

@kyleforrester87: @Kidfried: Scallywag is the only Pokemon to not evolve. Unfortunately they are very common in areas such as parks, inner city and Pokemon gyms to claim their pokerchips to use in William Hill. Its easy to trap a scallywag but do so at your own risk. There's many examples of scallywag - point your Pokemon go at Old Trafford and Wayne Rooney will appear as an example.

@dryrain: You can play with just a wi-fi connection, but you'll be limited to those places.

I managed to fix my GPS and I use it when I take a stroll around town. Not going to actively chase them, but I did walk an extra mile to see what I could find
