Comment on Black and White 2: The Good, The Bad, and The Divine

I was absolutely excited for Black and White when I was younger. In school we had to write an article for English class and I chose to write about Black and White’s upcoming release. I got a good mark from it and my English teacher was equally intrigued.

The game came out and I sunk a good amount of hours into it. Was it the best game? No of course not, but it gave me great memories. I don’t think I’ll ever go back and play it again as it won’t live up to the nostalgia, but it would be interesting if someone attempted to tackle this kind of genre again.

I remember playing with the little black and white marbles in the logo, or am I misremembering? I have tons of fond memories of the game.

  It was definitely in the second game. During the loading screen, you could move it around and the marbles would fall out and swoosh around in the box.

Oh oh!!! I had the same experience but with an AMAZING anticlimax. So when the game came out it was one available for purchase in a localised version, with a horrible Swedish dub.

For the record, Sweden has a policy of not dubbing essentially anything for anyone over maybe seven years old. No other game I know of was translated even (except the sims), and certainly not dubbed. We made fun of how terrible and corny that version was for years. It sounded like morning cartoons for babies, probably because the same cast who did Sailor Moon and Pokémon did it.

I’ve never played the real version, and only sparingly played the horrific dub because the family computer wasn’t good enough.
