Pokémon Designs Aren’t Getting Worse, They May Be Getting Better

Without fail, a new Pokémon generation will bring with it a wave of criticism — the idea that Game Freak has progressively gotten worse at designing new Pokémon. I’ve noticed that folks who are critical of new Pokémon will typically point toward the original 151 Pokémon as examples of amazing, if not the best, Pokémon design.

CDC Games Bringing Digimon MMO to North America

I think I still have handfuls of Digimon cell phone charms given out by some Taiwanese convenience store chain lurking in a suitcase, but in case you prefer your Digimon experience to be on your computer and not dangling off your cell phone, CDC Games has gotten the licence to bring the Digimon MMOs to North America and the PRC. CDC hopes to launch the extremely creatively named Digimon RPG in North America sometime this year, and Digimon RPG2 (that name’s supposedly temporary) should be hitting the Korean market by the end of ’08, as well. Full release after the jump.


Digimon From Dusk Til Dawn

newVideoPlayer("digimondusk_high_gawker.flv", 475, 376);

Yeah, so I am a pretty big Digimon fan. Not that I am rabid or anything; I just displace a lot of water when submerged. Digimon World: Dawn and Digimon: Dusk is an RPG in the fine tradition of Pokemon, where the two different versions are essentially the same except for certain Digimon being exclusive to each version. I won’t spoil the surprise, mainly because I am too lazy to find out, but you’ll be able to connect to friends and strangers via Nintendo’s wi-fi connection and trade anyway, so it hardly matters. I’d say pick Dusk, because it’s more purple.
