The adventure begins....

Ah yes, Pokemon the very first game i had an addiction to (the second game i had an addiction to was WoW). Endless hours of fun catching and training and fighting and trading. I've played other games where you raised and trained creatures to fight but this will always top the cake. I only give 10s out to a select handful of games but red and blue do deserve the score.

By now I'm quite sure almost every gamer knows about Pokemon so I'm not going to go into big details about the story but I will discuss the elements of the original games that just sucked us all in. I would have to say having 150 monsters to choose from and train was the most amazing thing for me. MIxing up the roster and spending hours trying a new group of six to see which pokemon i prefer. I also loved the concept that you had to trade to get all 150 pokemon. This was the only gameboy game i would play with others for a long time. Hooking up those stupid cords and hoping they actually worked to get the two gameboys connected. OOOOO sooo much fun.

I must also add that this is the only series i actually played every version that has come out. I am pumped up to play the new black and white. I don't think I'll ever get bored of Pokemon. You just....gotta catch them all!
