IIRC you knocked Sunshine for the same reasons I did, and the basic idea behind why I don't hold Sunshine in such high regard is pretty much applied to Galaxy 2. Fun as all hell in many aspects, sure, but from an overall quantity standpoint, it doesn't budge Galaxy far from its pedestal.

Um, you were the first to disagree with my assessment that Sunshine was easier if memory serves me correctly. But yeah, it felt like a big fetch quest rather than an adventure, the only really memorable parts were the "void" levels Galaxy was loosely based on. A game featuring nothing but these voids was my ultimate fantasy, and Galaxy did exactly that. It really felt closer to the old Mario games than not only Sunshine, but also SM64, ever did, for some reason, while having some new, extremely fun elements.

And yes, I haven't abandoned that column I mentioned once. I'm about... oh, 65% done?

I'm not sure what that remark on Sunshine's higher difficulty has to do with what I said, but yeah, I still agree with that sentiment.

While I'm confident you'll like Galaxy 2 plenty, I think you'll be very annoyed with the same things I was. Some odds and ends aside, I think you and I have similar tastes.

Mind refreshing my memory on what this column you're working on is in regard to?

It's basically a look back on generation 4 as a whole. I think we've pretty much reached the point where it's appropriate.

More DKC goodness!

Well, well... a new pokemon that apparently has to violate species clause for its ability to be any use. Unless it gets branching evolutions that keep Plus and Minus...

Dragon/Fire and Dragon/Electric. I'll be a little disappointed if the only times we see these type combos are with ubers. They're overpowered to the point of not being fun to use anywhere other than ubers, which I'm not all that interested in.

Those ability names sound interesting, though. Care to take a few shots in the dark with me as to what they do? I'll guess that Terra Voltage nulls ground immunity to electricity, and that TurboBlaze raises Reshiram's speed for that turn or otherwise prioritizes it when using a fire move. Regardless, HIGH FUCKING FIVE for not making them both Pressure, GF. As long as they want to make the versions uber-centric, keep the abilities diversified. They had the right idea with Drought and Drizzle, though I don't mean I advocate making abilities contrast one another; just make them creative.

Speaking of Reshiram, do you think we should get used to saying that name, or do you expect it to change a little bit? Zekrom sounds like a keeper.

I also have the feeling that the ubers' trademark moves will use their secondary type this time, and not be more dragon stuff.
