I just finished playing through White (don't know a dang thing they were saying obviously) and I have to say that how this game ends is nothing short of amazing. Anyways, I'm going to get black when it comes out, only because, if I remember correctly, there are visual changes between the two versions.

that only applies to black city and white forest

and yes, white is infinitely superior to black considering the exclusives.
Haters can hate all they want, I'm not one of them.

i actually like a majority of blacks exclusives better

cottonball > awkward plant
gothic loli > germ thing
wargle = vulture
zekrom = reshiram (zekroms better, but they are both fine IMO)

not to mention black city

that being said, im actually conflicting because i want white forest over black city, but i like the black exclusives better.

Maybe, maybe not. -> http://pokebeach.com/2010/09/nintendo-follow-up

The post may be tl;dr to some.

imo the gothic loli is one of the worst pokemon designs i've ever seen
but that's just me

I love the gothic loli poke :C (actually the reason I want black, gothic poke and Reshiram)

I love all the designs

I really want the homunculus more though ):

Whats this about Black City and White Forest? I understand that they are areas exclusive to the games, but do they have some sort of relevance on the plot or is it just "oh hey cool a place"?

I kind of agree with this, actually.

I mean it's a decent pokemon but it's just missing that charm the amoeba has.

that's just me though.

I could care less about the two grass pokemon
Wargle in my opinion has a much better design compared to the Vulture.
Zekrom has the better design hands down compared to Reshram.
Cloud pokemon I could care less about because they're really just re-skins of each other.

I think it's really just more a extra place they added.

Kind of a nice touch aside from the maps literally being the same.

I don't actually care about those first two sets, I won't want them anyway. I prefer the plant, but not enough to make me care.
I really don't like the gothic one and the amoeba reminds me of alien hominid, but in a bad way, I dunno. Vulture's design is pretty plain but Wargle makes me think "oh look another bird" like the majority of the bird pokemon. I'll probably get the vulture just because vultures have some style as they are.

I liked Zekrom better at first, but Reshiram has more uniqueness to it; Zekrom's cool, but cool dragony things feel kind of...done. You get used to it. I'll stop caring about its design faster than Reshiram, especially if everyone gets one. I like both of their tails and zekrom's hand things though

i'm playing black right now, and i can honestly say this is the best pokemon game yet.

so much fun, even though everything is in japanese. if it's this fun in another language, imagine the english version...!

IGN also had the first 10 mins of gameplay, but I can't fing the video.

Wait till you get to the part where the game goes black & white and you find out you're in kanto.

I don't wanna spoil much more, but you do get to battle Gold and Lucas. You can find Brandon in a contest I don't know how to battle him.

DAMMIT. I REALLY wanted to save that info for when I could download a patch or something. Also Lucas? Who's Lucas? Brandon as in Sapphire?

Cute. Except Contests aren't in Gen 5. :V
