the graphics of pokemon B/W are HORRIBLE !!! whoever created poke b/w messed the whole pokemon series up - ur possed to use square pixels !!!
 
This is not a problem; it is an aesthetic choice. And I really don't see what you are talking about. If anything, I think it looks great. Care to post some pics to defend your position?

The people who made the game are the same people who've been making the games for years. This argument is poorly structured.

Keep it classy, guys.

He said people who made the game which implies Game Freak as a company, not the concept creator.
 
1. Pokemon's graphic engine has improved with the newer technology. It isn't Game Freak's fault that Nintendo's default graphics devices continually push the bar past your nostalgia induced illusions of grandeur to the Generation 1 days. Almost every Pokemon sprite has seen a drastic improvement amongst the first 151 Pokemon introduced.

2. To nip this in the bud, the Pokemon created in most recent generations are no less original and creative than those introduced back in Generation 1. Compare Garbodor to Muk (Garbodor easily more creative, though I love Muk too) and compare Vanilluxe to.... oh right you can't. It's the first time they designed a pokemon after an ice cream cone. Guess that counts as original, huh?

3. The overall environment is more inspirational and graphically sound. Buildings have more depth, forests look like forest, caves like caves. But no worries, Imma dig up some images at the end to point out how futile your argument is.

4. Seriously, make an argument, produce reason and evidence for your point. Frankly, anything beyond "this game sucks" is what I'd call a "fluff" post, and mods just LOVE fluff posts.

5. Satoshi Tajiri launched the Pokemon project. He collaborated with many friends such as Ken Sugimori on the project. I'm sorry to say, he's still very much alive and leading Game Freak. He decided to leave Junichi Masuda in charge of the pokemon project since Ruby and Sapphire. Masuda has been nothing but a blessing to the games. Improving mechanics, fixing many of the early bugs. He also put much of the music in the games you enjoy together. And before you tell me Satoshi Tajiri isn't the man who started it, I'd read http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Satoshi_Tajiri before you go foaming from the mouth.

6. Picture time!

Not only are the dimensions a little clunky and overstretched in the first sprite artwork, you have difficulty setting aside Tauros' most prominent features.

Not only do we get full back image sprite art now, again... the image is cleaner.

These don't even look the same. The first image literally looks like the ice sculpture my aunt had for her wedding reception. At least the new image looks like it's actually a living creature.

Now this isn't to say some sprite work didn't get lack luster in generation shift. Some pokemon like Gyarados saw a bit of a scaling back in ferocity in their design. But for the most part if you sincerely decree that the first generation is cutting edge today in 2013, you should just go back under the rock you've been under since 1998, because the world just became a scary place for you.

If this is supposedly better than...

then I seriously don't want to live on this planet anymore.

My end point is, rather than getting your knickers in a knot because people disagree with your (shallow) opinion when you can't even bring forward any evidence... then kindly don't bump a topic that's been a month cold while you formulate a response that equates to "just... just shut up man! I hate it and that's all there is to it! I'm not changing my opinion for nothing"

You are merely being closed minded if you can't even intellectually make your point. I'm not saying you are lacking intelligence, but you (for whatever reason) are making zero effort to validate your statement and are unwilling to at least consider what others propose. The nature of closed mindedness is not even giving other opinions a chance to cross your thoughts because you've blindly resigned yourself to a (very poor) choice in standards.

lol, I'm glad someone appreciates it. A gallon of coffee (not likely, but I'm Canadian and have no idea what a gallon really is) and 2 hours of researching images and source material and.. tada! I'm actually eager to see an intelligent retort to my evidence. I love debate and discussion that's civil on the topic. I hate blind arguments.

EDIT:

Where are the graphics significantly bad compared to other games? Again, provide more evidence Dragon.

Also, the zoom in and out is a function while you are idle and has zero impact on the graphics themselves and how the game plays. When you make your selection, the screen returns to normal. I find it difficult to agree with your argument when it simply isn't factually sound. The only issue I could see is if you are running a bootleg version. And the zoom in tactic was input so that you can notice the continued animation loops of the pokemon. Before Black and White, the best the sprite work could do was a short animation and return to still frame. If anything, the game is more alive and they wanted to highlight this.

Still, at least you put forward an argument, and I respect that.

no no no i meen why did they not outline the pokemon like in platinum / 4 ds / / my favorite poke game / / and i just found out about pokemon in 2010 /
 
Ethan, this was a terrible argument on your part. I believe that Black and White is a VERY good game, and the art style is amazing. If you're so nostalgic for Red, Blue and Green, then stop playing B/W and play those games instead of telling us how much the game sucks when we like it.
