I'm calling you a bitch for talking crap about me, for no good reason in convocations with other people... Even worse when you're just making shit up...
I never really said anything mean about you here or made anything up. If you got the wrong impression with that or if I really did come off as more aggressive than I meant, I am sorry.
Again I completely understand what you are saying, I simply don't agree with it. If you can finish Sonic 4 with out using the homing attack at all then it is optional in my opinion, as optional simply means possible to do the task with or without using this feature. The only parts of the level where it could be said is not optional doesn't at all compromise the fun or difficulty of the level... ie, Homing attack birdges.
No, that is missing the point. If you can reach EVERY SINGLE SECTION of the game without the homing attack, then indeed it is optional, but anything else and it is not. Simply not using it is going against the grain just to be a 'hardcore gamer' or someshit. The game is specifically designed with it in mind and makes other techniques pointless. This is a big issue even when completely disregarding how it homes you in on the enemies, which is what you keep saying is my big complaint. It is not.
Stop being so elitist, it doesn't suit you.
I never said the game sucks or that anyone should not buy it... The only thing I openly said sucks about the game is the music, which we can all agree is pretty low quality and very short. Even then I said I thought some of it was good, just that I think it fits something like Wonderboy better than Sonic.
I don't need any life lessons from someone that actually bullied people on this forum and tried to ruin the forum when we had a server problem by editing people’s posts and further picking on members in the process.
People? I just made fun of Joe, and while I never actually PMed him to talk it over or anything (which I usually do with people, and probably should with Joe), he said really mean things about me and my country in general. Every single naughty thing edited into the forums was not by me either, but I am not trying to sound like a better person or anything with this. I understand that was a dick move, but I think looking back there was no real harm done (if there was, PM me on it!).
Either way, that is a really low blow. I was not really telling you how to improve yourself or anything either, just defending myself.
You're not getting the point, You CANNOT go through this game just going "Jump, dash, jump, dash, jump, dash" It's physically impossible. There are lots of areas where you have to make more precise jumps and areas where you have to balance yourself. Just constantly pressing the jump button ain't gonna do it!
Not looking at the screen and just blindly mashing is not really what I meant, I just think it is completely possible to beat the game without pressing left or right outside of turning around. If you can prove otherwise, please show me. I really am very interested in this, not really trying to fight about it if that is how it is coming out.
I just don't think there's enough meat in Sonic 4 for my 1200 points, but then again, I probably wouldn't have bothered at 800 either.
The past few months alone have been crazy awesome for XBLA games with a lot of content in them. That Lara Croft game that was the same price for instance looked better than Xbox 360/PlayStation 3 launch titles and was like 5 hours long with an extra 10+ hours of unlockables and also co-op that completely changes the game, this is just half an hour and single player.
Even with the backlash I expect this to sell bucketloads... It could easily be one of the best selling titles on the platforms. I wonder though if they might change the next episode to 800 points next time?
