2nd Gen what game version do you prefer? Gold or Silver?

[ViperLH]

i prefer silver.. i don't realy know why but i like it more..
thats way i buy SoulSilver for my DS..

what about you?

 

[xPsychosocial]

I got both games for my birthday years ago but I always had a preference for Pokémon Gold. Ho-oh was my favourite Mascot of that series. I got HeartGold for that very reason. :P

 

[Ctrl.Alt.Geak]

I prefer Gold, I really like the concept of Ho-oh, thats not to say Lugia isnt awsome because I think he is, but I prefer Ho-oh and spend most of my time in Ecruteak because its buildings remind me of the temple I used to visit as a kid. Though in reality both games are so alike it doesnt really matter to me.

 

[Sewzie]

Gold.
idk why, probably because I played it first and just got used to it. Somehow, when I played Silver, the "feel" was different.

 

[Nathaniel.]

I prefer Silver, because I like Lugia much better.

 

[monsutafangs]

Gold. I liked the sprites better ;D! Though, I got Soul Silver this time around

 

[Noka]

Definitely Silver...mostly 'cause I liked Lugia at the time, and didn't know about Ho-Oh. Even though I do know about Ho-Oh now...I still like Lugia more.

 

[Stellar]

Silver. <3
I almost always buy the games based on which color or stone is prettiest, which worked out in the case of G/S because Lugia >>>>> Ho-oh.

Gold.
idk why, probably because I played it first and just got used to it. Somehow, when I played Silver, the "feel" was different.

I felt the same when I got Gold. The two games might as well be one, but somehow Silver just felt better.

 

[Elite Overlord LeSabre™]

Silver because of Lugia and the better version exclusives. Also IMO a greater number of the sprites looked better in Silver than in Gold.

 

[Sparkling Ruby]

I prefer Silver simply because I like Lugia best. xD

 

[Skaterzpenguin]

I started out with Gold and its been always my main game to focus on. Same goes for HG since it makes sence from my past.

 

[Limey-chan]

I chose Gold initially, but I think I prefer Silver purely for the selection of version-exclusive Pokemon available.

 

[ChrisTom]

Gold. Only because it was my first Gen II game. Also because I'm Autumn! :P

 

[jujuju]

Silver because it was the third pokemon game I ever played, first of this generation. Although, I like the pokemon in Gold much better. The favoritism of Silver is simply due to nostalgia.

 

[ChaoticArchon]

Silver. I don't care too much for the Legendaries.

Skarmory >> Gligar
Donphan = Ursaring
Persian > Primeape
Ninetales < Arcanine

...so Silver wins by a little bit. I love Donphan. STAB Earthquake with 120 Base Attack is a beautiful thing. Also, elephants rock.

 

[Sapeiro]

Gold. No doubt about it.

Maybe because that was the first Pokémon game I've ever actually owned (and the only one, if I don't count the R/B/Y Pinball).

Also, Gligar is made of win.
Ho - Oh > Lugia.
Arcanine >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Ninetales.

 

[Wings Don't Cry]

I got Silver first but I like Gold more since some of the sprites are really bad in Silver, not bad just they look like a completely different Pokemon.

 

[Gmack]

As silver being the first pokemon game I played and beat,
I would have to say Silver.

 

[dragons]

i prefer gold alot more, its more fun and i dno just the places u have to go and etc. is more exciting

 

[solarowl]

I like gold better. Sprites and everything. like places you can visit.
