Now for RPGs, my only exceptions are PKMN and Mario. Party games and racing games, only Mario (and Rayman M/Arena/Rush).

Re: Rayman 2
That’s correct.

Indeed. I don't think I said anything wrong.spiraldoor wrote:That’s correct.
@RayFan As Shrooblord said, the games themselves abbreviate like "PKMN".
But it is true, the only RPGs I like are from Pokémon and Mario series. The others do not capture my interest.

Re: Rayman 2
Well,idk bout you but Blacka nd White already removed a lot of interest from me.Now all I'd like to see is a remake of Blue/Shappire.I don't like new PKMN that much and the new region it's just alright,though much better than Sinnoh.

Re: Rayman 2
Blue and Sapphire are two vastly different games.
Blue is in Kanto, and is a 1st Gen PKMN game,
Sapphire is in Hoeen and is 3rd gen.
Do you mean Ruby and Sapphire?
Going by current trends, I think a remake is due.

For a second there I feared you were punching the Lionhead game in the face... but you weren't... and if you know what's good for you, you never will either.TeensieKing wrote:Blacka nd White

Re: Rayman 2
No,I like Black and White,but new Pokémon are horrendous.Anyways,yeah,it was a typo,I meant Ruby/Shappire.I love Ruby!
Re: Rayman 2
I've heard that PKMN B/W introduces novelties in the game mechanics like 3 VS 3 battles. But I must agree that the new Pokémon are even worse looking than the Sinnoh region ones.

Re: Rayman 2
I do like the new mechanics B/W brought, but some of the Pokemon in terms of aesthetics leave a lot to be desired, some make Jynx look decent!
Though many of the Legendary Pokemon look awesome, Zekrom being my favourite (at the time of writing).

The new Pokémon look like Digimon.

Re: Rayman 2
I always liked Jynx lol I have a Jynx al lv100! Anyways they are...weird.When I was passing the main story it didn't feel like a Pokémon game.It keeps its freshness due to the capabilitie to get old Pokémon,for me
Re: Rayman 2
If you are trying to parody the visual style of Digimon monsters, then I can agree.spiraldoor wrote:The new Pokémon look like Digimon.
One of the main reasons that Digimon does not capture much interest as PKMN is how they look in sight.

Re: Rayman 2
I’m not commenting on the quality of Digimon designs, just observing the way Pokémon has changed over the years. The original Pokémon were fairly cute and simplistic, but the newer ones look more monstrous, artificial and cluttered. I’m not saying that this is a bad thing; only that Digimon was the first thing that popped into my mind when I saw Reshiram and Zekrom.

Re: Rayman 2
That is the perfect description that I've been looking for for a long time. As soon as I had seen the new Pokémon, I was turned off them for that same reason. They seem to now be mostly roundish, smooth creatures without textures. They seem a lot more random than creative. And yes, they look very much like Digimon.spiraldoor wrote:I’m not commenting on the quality of Digimon designs, just observing the way Pokémon has changed over the years.

Zekrom might be my favourite legendary, but overall, Bulbasaur (001) is my favourite.
