Ugh, what's with everyone hating g/s now? Whoever hates it, answer why.

Maybe it's just because you're too scared you can't make good strategy because you're too lazy to actually give the game 10 minutes to learn what some attacks do. Jeez.

I haven't noticed anyone hating it, but I can think of some reasons on why. Maybe some people feel like they've mastered R/B/Y over a few years and now that G/S is out, what they know and those 1-2 years of strategizing means pretty much nothing. Or that everything is so balanced that it is difficult to make an all powerful team. Or the complexity of breeding; having to do it 3-4 times just to get some queer move on a pokemon who can't learn it. Or the fact that its so dam hard just to run into a legendary dog. Or that dam Hidden Power move...I don't hate it BTW, it's a good game.

Also the Special Attack and Special Defense being seperate stats is something some could not like...Blissey was supposed to be unstopable dammit! *sigh*

The graphics look terible as well. Compare a Yellow Alakazam with a G/S Alakazam. It looks like two years were the artists. Umbreon, for some reason looks UGLY IMHO. Houndoom looks like a dog thats starving to death and kingler looks like more like a krabby. The adventure is no longer fun, from the start all the way to Goldenrod the most you'll encounter is rattata's. *sigh*

Yellow? The graphics in Yellow sucked. Onix, for example, looked like it needed a nose job.

I never said that yellow has better pictures then G/S. My point is that they rushed through everything not caring about how the pictures look like

Yeah! Damn it! I'm sooooo tired of nintendo taking 2+ years to develop a single 8meg game! Bastards!

Actually, the game is 2 MB. The Japanese version was only 1 MB, though.
