Line 22:
* [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl|Pokemon Diamond]] - Brought back my interest in the Pokemon series, as it did for many other people. Though the Gen 3 games weren't bad per se, it was still sort of a [[Dork Age]] for the series, due to Pokemon's fad status fading a bit, and because kids who grew up with Gen 1 & 2 were in middle school during Gen 3 when it was suddenly no longer "cool" to play Pokemon, therefore Gen 3 largely got the shaft amongst somewhat older fans. Then Diamond/Pearl resurrected the series. The Sinnoh games deserve special mention for pulling that off.
* [[Pokémon Gold and Silver|Pokemon Soul Silver]] - Still my favorite entry in the whole series. Made me realize what I'd missed out back in the day when I skipped out on the Johto games.
* [[Pokémon Black and White|Pokemon White]] - I like Unova. I still don't understand [[They Don't Make Them Like They Used To|the comments]] regarding the new Pokemon. Sure, an ice cream pokemon is silly, but it's not like earlier Pokemon games didn't have similarly stupid concepts (Exeggcute is a bunch of floating rotten eggs, Grimer/Muk are piles of goop, etc). By comparison, an ice cream cone Ice type isn't that bad of an idea. A bit [[
* [[Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|Pokemon Black 2]] - A direct sequel to Black/White, which is a nice idea. It's done quite well, being one of the more story driven entries in the series, without getting too overbearing (unlike some some other Nintendo RPGs such as the Paper Mario or Mario & Luigi RPG series, ugh, can't there be a level WITHOUT tons of text to scroll or a tutorial!??). This time there ''are'' pokemon from previous generations available throughout the whole region, probably because people complained about the newer pokemon. Funny, the series always gets criticized for [[Cash Cow Franchise|repeating the same formula]] over and over, then when they actually try something fresh with Black/White (by having a full assortiment of new pokemon instead of just rehashing older ones, along with other features), [[They Changed It, Now It Sucks|people criticize them anyway]]. So they caved in and scrambled the Unovadex, mixing in some of the classic pokemon with the new ones.
* [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Pokemon Omega Ruby]]
* [[Fallout New Vegas]]
