I said they were easy, just that they took too much time to kill.

The women were easy! As were those exploding dog things, and the little ninjas. It takes a few minutes but there were much much much worse battles in the original.

When you get surrounded by 4 of those jumpy girls in a small room it's horribly frustrating, because you can't just throw them off a cliff. The crappy orc enemis are just a nuisance more than anything, because they only take one hit to kill.

I loved it in the original where you found that sword that just killed everything in one hit without the need for the dagger. That's just what I want to do in WW, I can't be bothered to fight the enemies because they're all so rubbish and easy to beat, they just take a long time. Too long, even with all the weapon upgrades.

Make sure you do.

It still has that POP essence that keeps me addicted. Not as good as the original.

I like the fighting, at least its quicker with less respawning. That second weapon edition is VERY useful.

I still think there's far too much fighting. The locations aren't that great, either. Towards the end of the original I was getting bored with all the interiors, and then suddenly they get you leaping around the outside of the place. Warrior Withing just shoved you back inside and it annoyed me. They seemed to take everything great about the first game, remove it, and replace it with more of the crap stuff.

Pikmin 2 wasn't repetetive, as such, but only a month or so had I completed the original for the first time, so it seemed a bit too similar a bit too quickly. I'll go back to it one day, I just don't know when.

Repetitive? I was impressed on how it managed to keep me interested to the very end.

I'm dissapointed about how mainstream POP has gone.

Blood, dark look, rock soundtrack... even the great platforming sections are quicker to do because they've been shortened.

But it is still good fun, and I think they've really sorted the fighting system, I actually enjoy it (most of the time).

PoP 2 of course. Echoes really deserves your undivided attention. Pikmin 2 is good but it is just a bit repetetive. Some game knocked it out of my GC and it hasn't been back in since.

Ah yeah if you haven't finished Pikmin 2 I wouldn't bother.

I'm playing POP2, Prime 2 and Four Swords all at the same time.

Prime 2 is pretty good actually, I'm more impressed than I was first time around.

Are you referring to POP2 or the first one?
