    I know alot of you probably dont care, but I'm a little disapointed about how the sprites will look in Pearl/Diamond.
    See Pics here:

    I know its a DS, so there's better graphics, but I dont like the new '3D' Style. I prefer the R/S/E and FR/LG Style.

    Anyone with me?

    It's at a wierd angle, and looks like what's that game called umm Animla Crossing I think, I must say I do prefer Ruby/Saphire, I remmebr th efirst tiem I saw it in a shop, and got to play a bt of it, the reflections in the water amazed me on Route 104, but the D/P sprites don't excite me as much.

    Its VERY disappointing. I could live with the 3D, because its not too 3D, but what's with those terrible hats?! They make me not want to get the game.

    I don't mind the 3D overworld feel, but I prefer Ruby/Sapphire OWs. The Pokemon Sprites look naff. Meh.

    All Animal Crossing games in existance don't use sprites, they use 3D models. And the characters in D/P look nothing like Animal Crossing people, their heads are too small.

    They look okay. And your username should be Quinlan Vos, not Quinlin Vos.

    Avoiding a lawsuit I guess.

    Back on topic, I dislike the feel of those graphics.... it just feels... I don't know. It's lost the classic appeal that RSEFRLG still managed to retain despite the huge update. And yeah, what's with the heads?

    You won't get sued for having your username on a forum the name of a copyrighted character. It happens all the time.

    I don't mind the overworld graphics. They don't bother me.

    I think they Tottaly Ruind the tradition of those cute OWs.
    They Look like Chibi-Dudes... And yeah, the hats and black hair (Just because I dont really like it in Pokemon Games... I like it in real life.) are just HORRID.

    My poor attempt at being humorous. Forgive me.

    Maybe I should reserve further judgement until I've seen more. Based on what we HAVE seen, I do actually think FRLG looks a lot prettier.

    I don't really mind the 3-D-ish feel to it, but I hope that's as far as it goes. >.o
    That's half the reason I didn't like Colosseum that much. Pokemon shouldn't be a 3D game. Simple.

    Eh, I was fine with Colo and XD. They gave a nice and more realistic feel to it, which I believe, by judging the battle graphics, they were trying to. Hell, judging the graphics overall, especially in XD. Mixing 2D and 3D does not fit...especially when you don't do it right.

    of course, it does! do you know Resident Evil (1-3)?
    but like your other sentence said, only if they do it right.

    rrr...they got it half right at least. The overworlds are okay, better than i thought 3D'd be anyway, although i kinda wanted 2d, and the battle system? Should've been 3d. what would've been ideal was a 2d world with 3d battles. It's be the same, only battles'd be alot cooler.
