Survey: Favorite GBA hack game!! ? (your opinion)

In my opinion, It was Pokemon Ruby Destiny: Life of Guardians too.
The storyline to all Destiny series is connected and the events as well.
It's very challenging and you need to be smart enough to pull it off.
 
i choose pokemon light platinum
 
My favourite is Pokemon Jupiter Version, not because I made it, but because it's so ****ed up that I honestly can't believe I made it before learning of the magic that is "marijuana". Looking back, it helped me get into programming, but it's so retarded, that I can't help but look back and piss myself in laughter thinking about it.

 
Since neither the title nor 1st post specifies it has to be a Pokémon hack, I'll actually take a different route here. Perhaps the GBA hack I admire the most is Bregalad's Sound Restoration hack for Final Fantasy VI Advance. The work put into that to make the game's music both tolerable and masterful again really fixes the release's one major flaw.

If we're strictly talking about Pokémon, though, I'll throw my hat in for Flora Sky. Amazing hack in so many ways.
 
1. Liquid Crystal
Beautiful remake of crystal and physical special split make this my fave hack
2. Pokemon Glazed
Great hack overall.. Beautiful tiles and great story.. But it hasn't finished yet and the ending was a little anti climatic..
3. Pokemon Resolute
Not the most beautiful hack, but the biggest one.. I hope the hack will be finished soon..
4. Pokemon Flora Sky
The most completed hack that even features emerald's battle frontier!! Too bad this hack doesn't have physical special split.. If it has, flora sky will be my number 1..
5. Pokemon RD: Life of Guardians
A great hack overall, and I love the story
 
My Top 5 are in 2013...

1. Ruby Destiny: Life of Guardians. It has a very deep story which connects everything in the Ruby Destiny Universe and a nice gameplay, which is supposed to be difficult. Now I'm etching to Broken Timeline.

2. Sovereign of the Skies. The only good German hack I know with a very good story which makes this game a bit untypical, especially Team Tundra and Deoxys. And I like the small Golden Sun references.

3. Vega. It's a japanese hack with very good quality and maybe one of the few fangames where I have enjoyed with Fakemon. I can't understand the text, but the story and music are really amazing.

4. DarkViolet. At first I was skeptical, but the "revamped" Kanto gives me a reason to try. And I loved it, especially the changes like a second rival, more Team Rocket encounters and a actual story, which make this hack more a Red/Green remake than FireRed/LeafGreen (sorry, no offenses, but I like DarkViolet more).

5. Liquid Crystal. Now this is what I called a "Crystal Remake". I like the new features and added story. I still hope it will be completed, so I can travel the Orange Islands...

I don't think I can really rank mine. :s My favourites are all so different.

Firstly, Pokemon Shiny Gold holds a special place in my heart. The phrase "I joined for Shiny Gold" couldn't be any more apt for me, and it was the first ROM hack I ever played and helped get me into ROM hacking myself. It was the first G/S/C remake and introduced a host of new and old features. A really good hack, it's just a shame it never got finished. :(

Funnily enough, Shiny Gold's rival hack Pokemon Brown/Prism are both good hacks too. How different they are and how much content they have is just amazing. Every once in a while I'll go back and play through Brown again. :) It feels so fresh too since the legendaries change with every playthrough. Prism is set to be an amazing hack too and I wish Coolboyman the best with his hack and future endeavours. :)

Another hack I like a lot, for similar reasons to SG, is Crystal Dust. I really loved Crystal (it's one of my favourite Pokemon games and I have a lot of nostalgia for it :p) and I love how much it tries to stay true to the original. It's the best remake of G/S/C imo. :)

Other hacks that deserve props are Quartz/Marble (despite the "controversial" Pokemon I loved these games so much! :D), Sienna (again, it's a shame it was never finished :() and Light Platinum (again, a really fun hack and the graphics are exceptional! :D)
 
Pokemon ruby destiny : life of guardians was probably the best hack.

pokemon glazed is up there too and i think Pokemon Sovereign of the skies if it gets translated
 
This would be my top 5

1.Pokemon Glazed
2.Pokemon Light Platinum
3.Pokemon Flora Sky
4.Pokemon Victory Fire
5.Pokemon Resolute
 
Pokemon Victory Fire is number one imo. I've 100% it. It's a shame it don't have the Battle Frontier.

Pokemon Light Platinum and Flora Sky are specials too.

Pokemon Resolute version sounds promising since it's the sequel to Victory Fire. But I'm still at the third gym.
 
Liquid Crystal has been the best for me so far.
 
light platinium for me was one good game. i'm playing atm Resolute is kinda but and annoyed me sometime on DEad Ends but if you do everything right is fine. i'm wating also for the Platinium for DS
 
By far Light Platinum old beta 3, I've never felt so much fun playing a hack (even more fun than the new complete version of Light Platinum)
