Grooveman forgets to lock his own topic? Ninja

Anyway, it's games like this that gets a lot of mixed reviews and all that, It's an okay game, so I guess. Ix is actually hard if you don't use Combo/Normal POW moves to take him out. Plus regeneration. Ninja

And about that, I played Half-Life while I was about 15-14 or so, and it was rated M.

Who said I intended to lock it? I just wanted to divert attention to the newest article (which is better written, IMO).

Woah, I just went to Sonic Wiki. They're already starting on the sequel. Pretty much all that's known is that Ix is mentioned in the sequel, but that's about it. Maybe he returns...? Nah.

I've heard of this somewhere before, it didn't really catch my interest because the people at Nintendo Power kind of like every games thrown at them for the Wii and DS, I haven't seen many of their reviews that includes downfalls of the games.

but anyways, after reading this, it really got me interested in playing this game, maybe the next time I'm at Rogers I'll pick it up just to play it for a little while.

I haven't seen many people do well written reviews that they've taken time into doing it, and when they do, it's basically just them nagging on on how much they love the game or how great they think it is, or the complete opposite. Fortunately, you are not one of those people, you discuss both the pros and the cons of a game that you enjoy. Kudos.
There is nothing to understand, that's why nothing understands it

wait you're upset about a sequel to a disappointing game

and then you turn around and ask for a sequel to an equally disappointing game?

I respect GrooveMan and all, but I don't think you guys should conclude that this game sucks just because he says so. Go out and play it yourself. Rent it our something. You might be surprised.

I don't know what review you're reading, but I didn't say the game sucked. The only direct adjectives I've used to overall describe the game are 'sloppy' and 'disappointing'.

It's just an extremely average RPG with Sonic in it. If you like average RPGs that much, then by all means get it.

In my opinion, ultimately it is a disapointment as something from Bioware but a good RPG in general.

Anyone who's surprised this game may get a sequel obviously hasn't played it through to the end.

No, I played it. Finished it. And really. I rather leave it on a cliffhanger and let the fanboys make horrible sprite comics about it than them make a sequel.

Game is great, only a few complaints.
One, no wi-fi Chao trading. That ticked me off a little bit but I can deal with that.
Two, which is pretty unavoidable on the DS, the levels are to cramped together. You find yourself running around getting lost in the same places.

I've not written a new one in a while, and it'd be nice to have another blog entry. There are a few new releases; but I'm still not sure.

It can be pretty much any game as long as it's PC emulatable or otherwise can run on PC. I'm not prepared to buy a game I'll only play for the sake of the review (waiting 3 days for a torrent download isn't a great idea either). Freeware is coo'.

So any suggestions. Keep in mind I might hate it and write a scathing review. =D
