Halo 4 in less than a month. So Xbox will end this year with 4 AAEs, and one potential AAAE.

He isn't wrong, I did say they were disappointing and worse than the originals. Then I said they weren't. Then I said they were. Point is, they are great games, but they are stale. They need a shake up.

What else could they possibly do, the formula was perfected years ago, pokemon evolves so quickly there isn't much room for it anymore

For starters, make the jump to 3DS. Give me a full blown Pokemon 3D. It's at least eight years too late at this point.

What else could they possibly do, the formula was perfected years ago, pokemon evolved so quickly there isn't much room for it anymore

And that formula is stale now. Keep adding sprinkles and frosting to the same cake you've been eating for over almost fifteen years and eventually, you'll get tired of it. No matter what you add, it's still the same basic cake.

And yes, I have Pokemon White and White 2, in case you were wondering. Still fun but definitely stale.

Gameplay wise, i don't see anything else they could do, and a 3d pokemon sounds like a neat idea, but that's a huge risk, and it could potentially hurt the franchise if isn'texecuted right

Are you saying Game Freak as a developer isn't competent enough to do a Pokemon 3D properly?

Well i don't think the ds could handle anything ambitious, plus you might be right, but could you honestly name another rpg on the ds that's as deep as pokemon? gamefreak did an exellent job for what they are given, plus changing the formula might hurt the franchise.

Adding that is just insult to injury. I was just saying that Kinect alone has more quality exclusives this year. Add Forza Horizon and it is just cow annihilation

Dragon Quest IX. The World Ends With You. Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor. The DS is my first handheld ever where Pokemon ISN'T my favorite game. Hurt the fanbase? How? Keep the same foundation, evolve the game. For a series that concentrates on the idea of evolution so much, it's funny how little it has evolved itself over the last two decades.

No, they are, i mean if gamefreak decides to do a 3d pokemon, they must keep some elements of the current pokemon games or else it could really hurt the fanbase.

Plus you have to remember that the current pokemon games are really easy to get into, that's why it's so popular and if this were to change, then pokemon might lose it's appeal and accessibility.

plus could the 3ds even handle a fully fledged 3d pokemon game?

3D games can be easy to get into. Look at Super Mario 3D Land, look at any of the GTA games, Call of Duty, Assassin's Creed... You just need to make it right.

Sometimes evolution doesn't do a game justice, plus this might turn pokemon into a niche, see this is why call of duty is so huge, it's user friendly and so is pokemon, and a change up to that formula might change that

Looks to be a great end of the year for Kinect, if you'd tell me that at the beginning of the year I would have laughed. Might have to get a Kinect when I get my own place and bigger living area.

Super mario 3D land isn't really that deep, and i honestly don't think the 3ds could handle a 3d pokemon game with all it's current features, we could get a 3d pokemon game, but it might be a step backwards.

A terrific new party mode and other smart additions to the franchise make Dance Central 3 the best way yet to get groovy with your Kinect.

The Good:
  • Excellent dance routines can appeal to beginners and experts alike
  • New Party Time mode is fantastic fun at get-togethers
  • Soundtrack and story draw on decades of dance hits
  • Improved Rehearse mode makes it easier to master tough moves.

The Bad:

Um... Nothing?

______________

So, yeah. How 'bout that Kinect and dem racing games? AAEs for everyone!

...Well, except Cows, obviously.

DarkLink77
Not a cow, but I do own a PS3. I am not a big racing fan, so I couldn't care less about Forza. As for the dancing game................:lol: sorry, but dancing games just plain suck. I don't care if it got a 10, I just wouldn't be interested.

I'd say so.

I enjoy these games and have the previous ones. But to tell you the truth. The first Dance Central didnt deserve anywhere near what it got on here, it was a slim package and it felt rushed out the door in time for the Kinect launch. I think it just got a rep for being the best Kinect gama available around the Kinect launch.

Dance Central 2 was legit good. Im getting this one as well.

Hey, just for the record, I think Black/White 2 is conclusively BETTER than all the other Pokemon games. I also think it's about f*cking time they changed the formula I love B/W2 but its only for the hardcorest of the hardcore fanboys at this point. Switch it up, Game Freak!charizard1605
lets be real here, they aren't going to switch up a multimillion dollar formula for the sake of a tiny, microscopic section of the fanbase.

The most they'll do is ramp up production values and online features when it makes it to the 3ds.

Then people shouldn't complain when games like this receive low scores.

This is no different than people bashing Call of Duty or Halo for not changing.

The difference being that Call of Duty receives high scores. Consistency would be nice.

For the most part is isn't receiving low scores, it has a solid 81 on metacritic

GS was an outlier on this, just as they were with the first Black and White.

[QUOTE="Shinobishyguy"] lets be real here, they aren't going to switch up a multimillion dollar formula for the sake of a tiny, microscopic section of the fanbase.

The most they'll do is ramp up production values and online features when it makes it to the 3ds.

Then people shouldn't complain when games like this receive low scores.

This is no different than people bashing Call of Duty or Halo for not changing.

The difference being that Call of Duty receives high scores. Consistency would be nice.

Meh. Call of Duty hasn't been the same basic game for 15 years either so I'm willing to give it the benefit of the doubt.

But yeah, I think it should be graded more harshly than it is.

For the most part is isn't receiving low scores, it has a solid 81 on metacritic

GS was an outlier on this, just as they were with the first Black and White.

And people have been at GS's collective throat for that outlier score.

that's because people are realizing that gamespot's opinions of pokemon games aren't worth sh*t.

Again.

Quite frankly, I'm far more inclined to agree with GameSpot's score than IGN's 9.6.

God... DAMN!

Kinect has had more quality exclusives than PS3 this year

Kinect:

  • Dance Central 3 (8.5)
  • Fable: Journey (8.0)
  • NBA Baller Beats (7.0)

PS3

  • Twisted Metal (8.0)
  • Starhawk (7.5)

OUCH!

BPoole96

Kinect: It only does high quality games. :lol:

GS is just throwing salt in the Cow's bleeding wounds

neither of those two are accurate, they're both extremes.

One has never been fond of the pokemon franchise and any feature that they have added is downplayed as superfluous fluff, and another is a complete fanatic.

It's a solid 8.5

That would imply that the same person is reviewing the game each time...which it isn't.

And I wouldn't even agree with that 8.5 personally, based on the time I've put into the game.

It doesn't matter if the reviews are consistent with eachother. BW got trashed for not changing the formula despite it being the freshest pokemon game since the original red and blue

Well Dance Central is the best dancing game of the generation and Xbox has a foothold on racing games this gen... Sucks to be a PS3 only owner if you like those two things lol.

I'm actually considering buying a 360 for the racing stuff despite getting bored of Kinect... Even though Most Wanted probably be better on PS3 and obviously on PC due to Criterion's track record, Forza Horizon is really cool and I miss PGR4.

so l'm guessing you're not fond of it either?

I'm calling it like I see it. Sure, the Pokemon formula is one that works but that doesn't stop it from being incredibly stale at this point and I think GameSpot graded it accordingly.
