meh... i don't really like the storyline in a any of them... i just like the utter customisation and character development.
if i want to play something with character customisation and storyline.. i can always choose out of my 2 favourite games :P final fantasy 7, or final fantasy tactics.. the fact that those are my favourite games also further confuses me as to why i'm so intrigued with making this FPS i'm making... i'm a very confused person...

I don't have that... wasn't it like Tetris though?

But you're living in the past, man, stop living in the past. Get Diamond or Pearl!

Hey, why ditch a good thing?  And yes, it was like Tetris.  Well, Tetris Attack, to be exact.  The puzzle mode definitely set it apart, however, and is what made the game fun for me.

sonic the hedgehog maaan.. he got better and better until it was too commercialised, now the games aren't as good as the good ol' side scroller of doom, where you have the occasional instances of 3d spheres in odd formations and strange emerald that fall out of the sky and happen to land in your hand, giving you points which, i assume, go to a casino run by native americans.

Yeah Dark Blade, Gold and Silver is the one with the red Gyrados and the secret underground base.
I think Ruby and Sapphire has good storylines too and good graphics.
Oh, I just remembered! Gold and Silver had 16 bagdes!!! You did Johto, then you could go to Kanto!

And Diamond and Pearl (only played Pearl, though) have the best graphics of any opf the series, as well as an awesome storyline. But Game Freak should bring back Team Rocket! We need to learn more about Mewtwo and Giovanni's son!

(N.B. I've been offline for 3 days playing Pearl, if anyone was wondering where I had gone)

Heh, try playing Shadow the Hedgehog. Completely irelevant to everything that series has ever done...

Dark Blade is paranormal and supernatural, and is worshipped by some (the others, Dark Blade will make them pay......). Therefore, Dark Blade is a deity.

Isn't it weird how some people refer to themselves in 3rd person?
