i respect people who like these games but i cannot shake the feeling that diamond and pearl are just...Platinum but worse? Platinum but Cyrus is barely there. Platinum but if it was made out of wet tissue paper. It's built on good foundation in a cool as hell region, though, so I find it hard to have too bad of a time with these games.

Maybe BDSP being wet-tissue ports of wet-tissue games just puts a bad taste in my mouth about the whole thing.
