    Normal mode probably isn't as challenging as in other games in the series, mostly because of the many new options available to you, and the fact that the rescue mechanic has been replaced with something with far fewer detriments. But there are Hard and Insane difficulty modes, which according to Makaze beef up the number of enemies at least threefold and make Reeking Boxes cost an arm and a leg (You need those to grind).

    I was really confused at how the control scheme would work, but apparently people are liking it. I guess it presents some advantages, like smoother lock-ons.

    The fact that nobody said D.Gray-man

    for the whole year this existed

    The fact that SOMEBODY HAS IT IN THEIR SIGNATURE

    AND STILL NOBODY HAS SAID IT

    It is actually miles better than everything mentioned in here thus far. Zero contest. No I'm not talking about the anime, the anime's kinda wonk and the dub cast is horrible. The manga dumps all over these puny shounens. Millenium Earl 2 stronk, smashes ur antags. Exorcise your bad taste. Get with the Order.

    Seriously? When are they gonna ditch Ash? I really wish more of these nameless protags got the spotlight. The best they ever get is becoming semi-recurring side characters, if even that, and that ain't fair. That and Ash tends to use the same teams over and over, which gets really dull to watch before long. And he continually throws them at things they're weak to, WHAT A SCRUBLORD.

    OK THIS IS THE ONE I WAS WAITING FOR YO ARRIGHT

    FIRST OFF: EVERYONE WHO THINKS SONIC CAN'T WORK IN 3D NEEDS TO GET THEIR HEAD OUT OF THEIR TUCHUS BECAUSE

    SA2

    WAS GODLIKE

    IN EVERY RESPECT

    "But Nova the models look awful, and the cutscenes are all stilted, and there are glitches everywhe-"

    EVERY. RESPECT.

    NOT TO MENTION CLASSIC SONIC WAS FULL OF PITFALLS AND SPIKES YOU COULDN'T POSSIBLY SEE COMING WHICH WERE OBVIOUSLY PUT THERE TO PAD THE GAME LENGTH BECAUSE GENERATIONS IS JUST AS LONG AS ANY GENESIS GAME BUT YOU CAN FINISH IT IN A DAY, KNOW WHY? BECAUSE IT WARNS YOU WHEN THAT F#♫%♥♂& 50-FOOT LEAP OF FAITH IS FATAL OR NOT

    ALSO SONIC HEROES WASN'T THAT BAD I MEAN YEAH SOME OF THE LEVELS SUCKED BUT AT LEAST WE STILL HAD DAVID HUMPHREY

    I THINK EVERYONE AFTER HIM IS THE FAKE HEDGEHOG AROUND HERE

    HELL EVEN STH HAD A KICKIN' SOUNDTRACK WHICH IS WAY MORE ENJOYABLE WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE TO PLAY THE GAME

    Nothing can excuse S'06 not even my impassioned capslock ALTHOUGH HONESTLY I LIKED MEPHILES

    HIS THEMES WERE COOL AND DAN GREEN DOES A GREAT EVIL LAUGH

    *cough*

    Arright enough yelling

    Yeah uh I like them both. I think people give the early games way too much credit, but I also hated the series for a time. Thankfully that time is passing, and I'm looking forward to Sonic Team's joint work with Nintendo, it's already looking pretty stellar. Get hype 4 Sonic Galaxy.

    No, it is not exact, no matter how similar it is. The different paths and configurations distinguish it enough to ensure that. And while it would've been nice for Capcom to have not been rushed and to have been able to put in unique levels for Dante, it doesn't mean what we got is automatically utter garbage. If it was fun the first time, why isn't it fun the second time? Have you never replayed a game in your entire life or what? It's not that identical, to be sure.

    Does anyone actually know the status of the TTGL rights? I know SyFy ran it way back when, but I doubt they still have it.

    Look, all I care about are Metroidvanias. If one of the constituent parts of that very term produces a game that isn't a Metroidvania, I'm probably not gonna play it.

    Somehow, they made a 3D Metroidvania work - from a first-person perspective. That is amazing, whether you personally care for it or not. But it's definitely not a departure from the standard formula, just the standard delivery. Far as I'm concerned there's no division; they're all Metroid, they're all great, and I need to play more of them because I have only played Fusion and like half of Prime and that's a tragedy.

    I don't get people's frustration with "recycled levels." I love it when developers re-use assets, because you get to see the same landscapes from a totally different perspective. It transforms your understanding of the world you inhabit, helps with the feeling that these places aren't created for you to explore; they change and evolve independently of you, and when you return you may find something's a little different from before. And that is a major source of immersion for me. Of course, I'm from the NES/SNES/Genesis era, where levels would repeat several times, assets would be used and re-used time and time again, a core set of ten enemies would populate almost every level... so on and so forth. I consider it wasteful to introduce new areas, enemies, or devices before the old ones have been completely tapped of their uses. That's also why I like the Bloody Palace; it takes one raw element of the game, strips away everything else, and endeavors to see how many unique scenarios it can create.

    tl;dr if you went to the MoMA one year and fucking loved it, then went back the following year, would you immediately go "6/10 seen it before"

    Make me nigga
