So yeah, HeartGold. I got it.
And it is awesome.
Let's see- graphics? Amazing. Music? Fantastic. Fun value? Uh, check. Reliving your childhood but even better? Heck yes!
Currently I've reached Ecruteak and have my complete team of six, mostly around early twenties level-wise, except for Shockeye and Nite Owl (Magnemite and Hoothoot, respectively), who are around 15-16ish, I think.
You know, Whitney was really easy. I didn't even need the Machop I trained as an emergency trump card. A little disappointing, but hey, it was nice to beat her on the first try. It's all about the Weepinbell and Quilava, baby. And her gym is still a Clefairy!
I like how they integrated the new stuff with the old and made it actually fit. If this was the first time you played this particular story, you wouldn't necessarily know that they're remakes. Plus, you know how the gyms and leaders tended to be a bit bland-looking back in the day? Yeah, not anymore. Falkner's gym is pretty amazing for the first one, and Bugsy has a cool but simple maze.
Having your Pokemon follow you around is a nice touch. It's a bit disconcerting seeing them jump forward in battle rather than pop out of a ball, but it's pretty cool. Oh, and that Togepi you get? Yeah, it has Extrasensory for an egg move, at least mine did. Nice little touch there. Expect more info tomorrow, there's a lot to this game and I don't think I'll have it beaten anytime soon.
In other news, saw Iron Man today. Yes, finally. Great movie, want to see the sequel now.
Looking forward to culture trip, and our family vacation more and more every day.
I know you're probably never going to read this, but I'm thinking of you, even if you're not thinking of me. ...which sounds way creepier than I meant it to be. Sorry about that.
