Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Nights: Journey into Dreams does not live up to its predecessor!

75% isn't too bad. It's good enough that if it's your type of game you might love it.

I'm sure a lot of people were hoping for better, but 75 is about what I expected. :/

I loved Sonic Adventure 2: battle. One of y favorite games ever. Harvest Moon 64 too. what did those get? I am pretty sure niether was a AAA game.

once again screw pro reviewers, I'm sick of them finding the ability to lose at all in games a flaw, all they want is a game that holds their hands from beginning to end.
then they demand voice acting in all games, and the abolition of split screen multi-player, and they seem to find the ability to curse other people out online more important than gameplay

Nintendo Power: 9
Dengeki: 90, 90, 75
Gamezone: 8
Famitsu: 8, 7, 7, 7
Gamespot: 7.5
EGM: 7, 7.5, 7
1up: 7
GameTap: 7
IGN: 6.5

Good enough for me. I was going to get it no matter what the reviews said though. I loved NiGHTS into Dreams, and the only thing that would stop me from getting Journey of Dreams would be some sort of terrible technical glitch.

If the game sells as well Mario & Sonic Olympics, I don't think Sega will care about the reviews.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

Plus this game has better rviews than most recent Sonic games, so the OP's comment is really off, since Sonice had more than one sequel, to have those drops.

The reviews aren't surprising to me. Looks like the game was rushed out for Christmas, although it's only barely out for Christmas. Still they are better than I feared. I might pick this up myself.

I can't see Nights selling well, at least, not like Mario & Sonic. If anything it'll do what Zack & Wiki seem to be doing, sell consistantly through word of mouth. Could become another cult classic. Like it's predecessor. Image that.
