Hack of the Year 2008 | Nominations Round

[Went]

After playing a fair amount of the latest betas available around, I have to vote for Pokémon rijonAdventures. Great mapping, really challenging and very professional.

[torferno lvl-X]

I nominate Pokemon Brown V1.2. Because it contains major updates, extreme ASM, D/P pokemon and combatibility with all 1st and 2nd Gen Games

[~Areku-San]

Pokémon B&W.:


The gameplay and the story is very good. And advanced scripting in his programming.
The graphics are good too ^^ and is my favorite hack.
Good luck ^w^.

[~Hot n' Cold~]

Hack Name: Pokemon Distant
Reason for nomination: Great mapping and scripting, plus an awesome way to play - modes!

[BurstX]

Hack Name- pokémon Distant
Reason- it has some very intricate maps that are very well made, and the title screen is very original

[Heart's Soul]

I have played many hacks and I choose Pokemon Genesis.
Why? Impossible to improve, it is perfectly flawless, due to it's great maps and scripts. I cannot say anything else, due to it's perfect nature. I even think that this hack is better than ShinyGold, but I can't play neither on my DS *yet*.

[kennyj92]

I choose Pokemon Legend of Fenju
Reason: Awesome story, scripts, maps, graphics, etc. Looks really fun and the different environments in the hack make it look even better! It looks like a very original and fun hack that im looking forward to playing in the future.

[GKS]

Pokemon Thunder Emblem.

I like the different tiles it has and the mapping is pretty good too.

[The Abyss]

Hack: Pokémon Genesis
Reason: A great storyline with excellent scripts and maps that are so natural and beautiful.

[♣Gawain♣]

Hack name: Pokemon Genisis

Reason: It's amazing plus the storyline are just fine.

[Tachibana Azumi]

Hack Name: Ruby Destiny - Rescue Rangers

Reason for nomination:
It is the best Rescue Team hack ever. The plot is somewhat touching, and there is good scripting and mapping. The scripts are good, and the sprites are beauuuutiful. Therefore, I nominate Ruby Destiny - Rescue Rangers.

[Dukey]

Hack Name: Pokemon Genesis
Reason for nomination: I really enjoyed this, I have played a few hacks and most just are too original and others are too blegh, this one was perfect, and I loved playing the beta.

[BeachBoy]

I loved Genesis, but...

Hack Name: Pokémon rijonAdventures
Reason: Very enjoyable, with excellent mapping and scripts. Loved the story-line as well.

[[HoN] Jereziah]

Hack Name: Pokemon Legeds of Fenju
Why? : Coz the new title screen looks very nice, also, the sprites of trainers and the maps...

[NTA]

Hack:Pokemon Distant
Reason: I like the TitleScreen as others do i also like the snowy trees and the palettes

[Sarcastic Prince]

Hack Name: Pokemon Genesis

Why: Although this Hack has a lack of Sprites,

this is the most advanced scripting Hack.

Also, the the maps and storyline are really interesting too.

[TB Pro]

My Nomination: Pokémon Keyra

Reason(s): Well, there are many reasons that I chose this hack to nominate. For one, The tiles are just short of completely new, and amazing. Also, I didn't see any scripts that bored me, although I didn't understand any bit of the story or anything such The story(from the thread) looks wonderful. I just can't wait till it's translated(may be sooner that you all think...Can't say though) All in all, it was a very interesting hack, all aspects were at least borderline, or better. Just a very well rounded hack, it's a joy to play.

[Dratii]

Hack Name: Genesis

Reason: Awesome scripts, maps have a nice professional feel to them, with nicely chosen D/P/P pokemon, and to tie it off a great story

[NecroFlame]

Hack name: Ruby Destiny - Rescue Rangers.
Reason for nomination: It is an amazing hack. It has a very unique storyline and doesn't follow the beat-gyms-defeat-E4 trend. It's like a game on it's own, and I loved it.

So yeah, that's my vote.

[Naruto Uzumaki The Nine Tailed Fox]

Hack Name: Pokemon Lost Treasure
Reason: The amazing tiles

[Gerri Shin]

I nominate Pokémon Crystal Shards
Author: Kike Scott
Reason: the mapping is awesome as well as the inclusion of many custom tiles. Of all of the Johto remakes Crystal Shards takes most of the cake with the addition of the Pokégear that remains true to it's Colour generation base. the scripting is fantastic with the legendary beasts.

[ArceusGamer]

I vote for:

Pokémon Thunder Emblem

Because of it's hard scripts, good tiles and cool story!

[deadlyangel91792]

HACK NAMEokemon Ruby Destiny Rescue Rangers
Reason:great hack beautiful tiles,deep story that i loved and just all around great time.....also because i couldnt vote shiny gold

[Lady Berlitz]

Name of hack: Pokémon Genesis
Reason for nominations: Genesis is a great hack. It has been progressing very well for the whole time that it was made, and it is just a good game. The graphics are simple, which I like; the scripts are basically perfects, and everything is else is great. This is quite an easy hack to pick for nomination, and Thrace is a great hacker.

I found it hard to choose between Genesis and rijonAdventures, though.

[slicernicer]

Hack: Pokemon ruby Destiny: rescue rangers

Why: there are at least 10 new pokemon, and to create a rescue rangers game through a pokemon ruby rom is genius
