You know, that's kind of creepy seeing that type next to your smiling slime avatar. I'd rep you if I could

The rest of the game is so good I don't see how you could get hung up on the boating. Next to OoT, WW is the best in the series. Suck on that TNL.

"The rest of the game" is but a cherry on the pie plate full of poop that is the sailing.

HOLAY HOOOOOOLAY

HOMG FANTASTIC NEWS. I don't think Ubisoft would be stupid enough to can this, as they'd probably lose Ancel.

Oh come on. I think the combat is pretty much equal. I liked BG&E's simplified system that autotargeted multiple enemies. It's about as challenging as Wind Waker's combat, though, which is a bad thing. The story was a little heavy-handed but it had far more interesting characters than any Zelda game. And at least BG&E's boat can go fast. Plus there's far less ocean to traverse.

---

I adore BG&E but I thought the story was a little heavy-handed about the way it approached making a statement about the role of new media. What the story did well, however, was create interesting and unique characters with distinct personalities.

You do realize that much of the photography is optional, right? There are far more pearls in the world than you need to purchase everything, so you can easily ignore quests that you don't find interesting - including many of the later film rolls.

Lies. There is NOTHING in BG&E that comes near fighting the knights/Gannon.

Please be true. I'd buy it at a high price, Ubisoft. Many dollars.

Rape dollars?

And why isn't BG&E1 still not BC with my 360?!!

When we see screenshot I'll believe it's being made.

I would also like to add that at this point it's been so long I have no hopes of any sequel actually feeling like the original.

I'm thinking that if this ever happens it will be the new Musashi Samurai Legend.

Be careful what you wish for, because Beyond Good & Evil is still not backwards compatible with the 360!
