Geass R2 was most certainly bad, though unlike SEED Destiny at least its staff was fighting against time and executive meddling, not so much against themselves.
Btw, last news about the upcoming Code Geass Gaiden was back in January or February, so I'm guessing Sunrise isn't going release it before the end of this year, if not 2012.
>>6406890True, but that doesn't stop Guren, Gawain and (albeit it can only be used briefly) Lancelot from being pretty good by default. Upgrading them, like with any other unit, just allows players to tweak the balance further to suit their personal tastes and playing style...even to the breaking point.
Which is why all the trolling at the mere mention of Geass being in SRW doesn't change that, ultimately, Banpresto caters to everyone (Geassfags, Votomsfags, Gurrenfags, etc.) and laughs all the way to the bank.
