A question on HG/SS
First off, I'd just like to say hello to everyone as this is my first post. A little info about myself, im a high school student living in scotland, my first pokémon game was gold although I did go on to buy blue from a friend. My favourite pokemon (of you hadn't already guessed) is Totodile. I also own Crystal, Sapphire, Emerald and Diamond.
Anyway back on topic, I was toying with the idea of buying HG or SS but I wasn't sure if there would be enough new content and flashy animations to keep me focused on completing it. Don't get me wrong, I loved all of the previous games and defeated the E4 in all of them with the exception of Emerald. It felt too much like Sapphire to keep me going. I don't want to do the same and waste my money on something that I have already completed. I was hoping that you could help me make the decision on whether to buy it or not by giving me an insight into how different the game is to the previous titles. Thanks in advance. |
Man, you should REALLY buy that game. It is way awesome enough to be worth it. I pre-ordered in August to get it. Remember, this game was out on April 14th. I love it, and you will too.

You should get this game if the nostalgia factor kicks in for you. It's a fantastic experience for those who have G/S/C copies. I don't have the originals, and I'm happy, so you should love it.

There is actually quite a bit of new material in these remakes. Game Freak did a great job at incorporating new things while keeping the "nostalgia factor" in there. Check this out:

Seeing you are asking in the HGSS section of a Pokemon board you'd likely just see similar responses to those above. =p
But seeing this was your mentioned concern... Quote:
As for animations - sprites don't dance about 24/7 just yet (that's next gen =p) but certainly graphics wise on the overworld, etc it's a very large step from Crystal (way more so than emerald --> sapphire at any rate =p), and IMO more appealing to the eye than Diamond as well. And Pokemon following you is a nice asthetic addition as well (and sound effects when you walk, etc). Essentially if you have the money for it than more likely than not you'll enjoy the game, and even more so if you liked Crystal (what with the chance for nostalgia as well). I don't see other people's answers varying too much from this though, so going to close (but if you want to throw in your two cents, just VM/PM the thread opener, guys). If there's other questions you have, there's the Help thread sticky at the top of the section to use, and the FAQ thread with some info as well. And lastly - welcome to the forums and enjoy your time here. =) Quote:
