She was ALWAYS black. If she were purple, she would have changed color in defeat!!

yes, i know that, but i mean BEFORE she was born, was she purple and malefor turned her black, or was she always black???

#8047 GamingMaster_76 23:00:34 27/02/2010
No, she was not... It's because they didn't use enough black on her.

#8046 CinderLover 22:36:05 27/02/2010
NO! She is black, not purple! and I liked free flight, and to me the game was a bit challenging. But I agree, it should have been longer.

OK, From first post of arguement, I didn't care because I had the bad version of the game (A.K.A DS version), not the X-box 360.

i said i don't like the plotholes, not the game. i never said i hated the game without stating i disliked the plotholes.
