Not to mention the irony of him complaining about them reusing parts of the Ishimura when he was reusing a few jokes from his dead space 1 review.
but meh, what can you expect.

I'm pretty sure he mentions at several points that he has issues with the shifting of horror in games from a more subtle sort to the big jump out and scare people with a surprise monster kind of scary that you see in games now a days.

He is a huge silent hill fan, and I think a lot of his issues with the Dead Space franchise stem from that.

dunno about black and white but played some of the others and... don't you still get in random encounters even if you use a repel?

Only if the pokemon are higher level than your lead guy.

I remember when I was younger I'd get pissed thinking they did nothing. Black/White is the first pokemon I haven't played and for some reason I don't even care.

You're missing out. It felt so much more interesting to me just because all the pokemons you got to use at first were brand new and gave me the feeling of unknown the originals did.

lol

What turns me off is knowing that you can trade from the old games. The fact that they just keep connecting the games is very unappealing, at least to me.

Yahtzee hit the nail on the head, it really looks like the same old shit. (Beat the game and then trade all your old pokemon and battle online against level 100 broken teams, enjoy!)

fuck that robot thing in fear3. died like a billion times while bro-oping. Maybe because I've never played a fear game before but every level had me on edge a bit, but I'm a wuss when it comes to horror. Didn't help that my friend kept letting me run in first to see all the scary shit :/

**Lucavi** · 2011-07-21 00:04

Haha, the robot is pretty hard to take down with the constant rocket spam.

and his review is 100% true and mentions almost everything I brought about about the game in the uncharted thread.
