been a while since we had a "which version?" thread

So, we all know we pick one version over the other or just get both. Like the poll says, which version out of Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire did you play? Or did you actually get both?

I bought both. Alpha Sapphire to one hundred percent and Omega Ruby to play over and over again. I recently bought a second Alpha Sapphire to play, too. I have the same setup with the original Ruby and Sapphire.

I'd bought Omega Ruby first. After finishing the story mode, I was so impressed with how it turned out I wanted to start over again.
I bought Alpha Sapphire a week later.

This is the first time since Sapphire / Emerald that I've bought two versions.
I like ORAS.
[Lord Summerisle:] "Now, those children out there, they're jumping through the flames in the hope that the god of the fire will make them fruitful. Really, you can't blame them. After all, what girl would not prefer the child of a god to that of some acne-scarred artisan?"

[Sergeant Howie:] "And you encourage them in this?"

[Lord Summerisle:]"Actively! It's most important to teach new generation born of Summerisle be made aware that here the old gods aren't dead."

[Sergeant Howie:]"And what of the true God? To whose glory churches and monasteries have been built on these islands for generations past? Now what of Him?"

[Lord Summerisle:]"Oh, He's dead. He can't complain. He had his chance and in modern parlance. Blew it."

[Lord Summerisle:]“And the ministers fled the island never to return. What my grandfather started out of expediency, my father continued out of love. He brought me up the same way: to reverence the music, and the drama, and the rituals of the old gods; to love nature and to fear it, and to rely on it and to appease it when necessary. He brought me up —”

[Sergeant Howie:]“He brought you up to be a pagan!”

[Lord Summerisle:]“A heathen, conceivably, but not, I hope, an unenlightened one.”

I have both versions, but Alpha Sapphire is the one I always play more. I tend to align a lot with the "blue" versions of the game for some reason.

Since I had the original Ruby, I decided to go for diversity and got the limited edition Alpha Sapphire with metal case. It's pretty cool!

Also, I'm in the process of replaying it, cause I feel for the first time I was to focused on making it through to the Delta Episode, so I forgot to really enjoy it. I'll be playing it much more calmly before Sun & Moon, later in the year.

Both versions for me. Omega Ruby is my main save file and has my almost-complete National Dex, but I use Alpha Sapphire to get all the Pokes I couldn't get in OR, and I like to use it as an extra save file so that I can easily start a new game without losing my main save file.

Kyogre is my favourite legendary (I love whales!), so I bought Alpha Sapphire. I don't think I'll get Omega Ruby, since the two are so similar..I'd rather invest in a game from a completely different generation for example.

I ended up picking up Omega Ruby at its midnight release in London. It was awesome but at the same time it was the night where Xbox Ones and PS4s were put on sale so the lines were huge and I didn't meet anyone else who was there for Pokémon other than someone in their late twenties shouting at their mum for not loaning them some money to get the game lol.

I got Alpha Sapphire a few months later for Christmas so I had both! I've still not played through AS fully yet - I only have two badges!
