    I got both on release day, because I can never decide.
    Every generation so far, I've bought both copies because I'm very indecisive.
    BUT. I prefer Silver.. just because I started on that one first on my Lime green GBC (:

    Gold.

    It was the version I had for the Second Generation, I preferred the colour over Silver and I preferred the sprites in the game, which were more friendly looking, Silver's looked a little strange and more alien.

    I still like Silver though, but I love Gold more.

    I prefer Silver more. I like the Pokemon that are only available in that version more then in Gold. Though mostly because I never played Gold as I never had the chance to buy it.
    It worked for me when all was said and done.

    Gold for the win. Suprised? Eh you shouldnt. It was my very first pokemon game. Even though I didnt know how to play it (let alone get past youngster Joey at age 6) I still enjoyed my 2 town sweep. Everyone else in my class had Silver, and my cousins also had Silver. I would say: Why does that house have windows and mine doesnt?

    I never understood that until I got sapphire and completed that, then went back to Gold and finish it. Gold brings back some good memories.

    Originally I liked Gold more, but now I like Silver more. Before it was mostly because of the sprites in Gold, now it's mostly which Pokemon are exclusive to Silver. :P

    Gold, I hated getting poisoned by Weeldes in Silver. ;;
    Plus, sentimental values as well, I got it for Christmas one year~ Found my first shiny there as well. ^^

    I like silver just because I think the color is more appealing than gold and I like Lugia better than Ho-oh

    Silver; simply because it was the 2nd ever Pokemon game I ever owned :'3

    I bought it pre-owned since like I used my own allowance >_> I was like 5 or something...

    But the pre-owned game was at the beginning with a character named Silver and a Squirtle named Bubbles :3 They had obviously hacked it in, but I didn't care.

    Silver! Although I did buy both versions when they came out. (they were my first Pokemon games C: ) I found I played Silver significantly more than gold; not sure why.

    Silver, just because it was the first game that I've ever owned. Out of all of the games in the store, Silver caught my eye. :)
    Plus, I use to be obsessed with water-types so I loved the concept of Lugia.
