Now that Pokemon Black/White 2 have been out for a while, many of you have probably gotten pretty far into it. My question is: what do you guys think of the game and how does it compare to the previous installments?
Personally I found this one to be the best one out of all, especially its soundtrack which beats all the others. What are your thoughts?

The new features, namely the Pokémon World Tournament and Habitat section of the Pokédex, made these games enjoyable. The plot, including Team Plasma, was darker. I think N's innocent ideals made BW1's plot much less threatening. I really like the new Team Plasma uniform designs as well, definitely gave off the Team Aqua feel. The ability to catch previous generation Pokémon made me quite happy too as many happen to be my favourite.

My only complaint about BW2 is how they executed Team Plasma, in what I thought was rushed.

I have to say I loved the scenery of these games and the extra stuff they added in to fix most fans' disappointment of Black and White, the Pokemon World Tournament was fun, along with the expanded Pokedex which made team-building easier, and the fact the wild Pokemon are now a little bit more challenging to fight.

And not to mention Rosa is now my new fave protagonist from the series.

I think Black 2 and White 2 are great, the first to have a regional Pokedex which contains more than 300 Pokemon (Victini counted), PWT, Join Avenue, and Pokestar Studio. Compared to original BW, B2W2 in overall has much better storyline and features.

Imagine a fire type with Chlorophyll. A good excuse to teach it Sunny Day, so it moves faster, and charges up moves like Lava Plume. I'd like to see a new Pokemon like that. (I know they haven't added any new Pokemon to the game.)

You mean like a fire/grass type? Because having chlorophyll on a fire type wouldn't really make any sense.
Although a fire/grass type sounds pretty deadly...flying being its only weakness.

I think these are the best games in the series, tied with HeartGold and SoulSilver. It's probably because they expanded Unova, tied loose-ends, brought back gym leaders, and basically you have something to do when you beat the game.

With how quickly generation 5 was brought to an end it can definitely be seen as a compromise and a stop-gap generation while they were working on Generation 6 but it definitely is no slouch in the story department and the graphics are a huge step up for the DS and there's alot of little nice additions.

Having almost completely completed (i.e. including post-game stuff) Black 2, I can safely say that I prefer it to Black. I just found the storyline much more enjoyable, there's more to do post-game, and I liked how the older Pokémon were available immediately. I mean, I understand why they weren't in Black, but yeah.
Still young but no longer impressionable.

I've got both Black and Black 2 and I think the second is way much better than the first, because of all the many sidequests and things you get to do, that were missing in pokemon Black. In fact, I'm still playing to Black 2, wereas i left a bit over Black :(

(Still waiting for Ruby and Sapphire, maybe in 3D? :P)

The region's expansions were excellent, and I loved the music. The gyms were so and so, I mean come on 3 gyms were basically battle to move on without any puzzles, and I'm kind of irked that Undella is basically the center of east Unova and is still a town. Pokewood although, is one of the best additions to the series, and I hope that they eventually give us a bigger and better one in the future.

I really liked it, even more than Black and White. The new towns, PWT, PokeStar studios, it was all perfect, mainly the storyline. I loved it. I would give a 9/10. rating for this game. What I didn't like in the game was that you couldn't met Hilbert and Hilda...I would love to battle them.

I have definitely got sidetracked with everything that you can do in White 2. I do enjoy being able to catch so many different pokemon early on and getting to gain access to moves and items early on. The graphics are very nice and I love the rival storyline. I enjoy doing my Joint Avenue and the Battle Subway is a blast. The PWT is pretty nice and I like you can rebattle gym leaders. I wish the starters would have been tweaked a little more but they are still fun to play around with. I still have a ways to go as I am only at my seventh badge and there is so much more left but all in all best time investment my daughter and I have invested!

I personally enjoy it. All the goal are still there (like completing the pokedex, which i enjoy doing) and interestingly enough, there are a lot of hidden events that you can trigger in the endgame. Whats funny is when you happen upon something after youve beaten the game (pretty significant events) that arent covered in online game guides.

My favorite part about B2W2 is the fact that we start on the other side of Unova, and you hear your BW character's story in bits and pieces. He is the reigning hero, and you are following in your own character's footsteps. Great touch GameFreak, great touch.
Rating 10/10
