GameInformer took points off of X and Y’s review score because it ‘still feels like a Pokemon game’

Well what the fuck do they expect it to feel like

grand theft auto 5, maybe?

O.K. Not gonna lie.  I haven’t actually gotten into the Pokemon games (got Nintendo handhelds real late and such), but… really?  I mean… “it still feels like a Pokemon game,” just… uh… it… it IS a Pokemon game.  What does that mean?  You still go around and catch little monsters in balls, right?  That is what Pokemon is, right?  The only way for it to not feel like that is to take that away, so… uh…

I mean that would be like, “Mortal Kombat is good but… it still feels like Mortal Kombat because of the blood and head removal at the touch of a button,” but… that… is the point, right?  People pick Mortal Kombat up wanting, well… a Mortal Kombat game.  Same with Pokemon.  Everyone is buying it so they can play a… Pokemon game.  Right?
