Woo-hoo! The titles are decent but if titles were what mattered I wouldn't have played Diamond or Pearl.
Definitely picking Silver all the same, as that was my choice all those years back. I still remember when my aunt brought over 1 Gold and 1 Silver and my sis and I chose which one we wanted. I picked Silver, she Gold, and we spent the whole night playing them. Doesn't seem like a big deal staying up the night now, but back then I was but a 12 year old.
All the same the release date can't come soon enough. I've only had Platinum for a little over a month now and some haven't got it at all, but this is GS. We're going back to Johto ^^
Also, I look forward to what the probable GS move tutors/changed learnlists add to the Metagame. Will Entei/Flareon finally get Flare Blitz? Will they let Blaziken join the big boy's club and get Close Combat? (I know he gets Superpower now but it is just not as good..) Who knows.. but it is all very exciting.
