    Woooooaaaaahhhh!!!

    It's been rumoured forever but now is reality. What do you guys think about this?

    Personally, Gen 3 was my least favourite Gen but that was due to the new Pokemon. The majority of Hoenn's Pokemon are so ugly to me.

    But the region of Hoenn is very interesting and distinct, and I think it'll look great in 3D!

    I loved Hoenn and have been on the remake-happening wagon for awhile now. I'm excited to see what they bring to the table. I wasn't going to get X/Y because I felt I was done with Pokemon and couldn't really enjoy the games anymore, but I ended up caving and getting it. I liked it enough, but I don't believe I've even finished it. :x The formula doesn't interest me like it used to, I'm afraid, but if there's enough content in OR/AS to bring me back, then that'll be great.

    I'm not really a fan of the remakes. I didn't like FRLG at all and the only reason I made it through HGSS was because I had a Cherrim following me around everywhere. I'll probably get ORAS and hope for the best, but I have a feeling I really won't like it because I already hated the first RSE games. Hopefully Cherrim helps me pull through again.

    I didn't really enjoy Generation III proper (so, RSE. I loved FRLG and still return to it once and a while). I feel like maybe I would have if I played Emerald instead of Sapphire because it ironed out some of the quirks, so I'm slightly optismistic as I'd assume the remakes are Emerald-based like HGSS was Crystal-based.

    I'll still pick this up and play it, and while I'm optimistic, I just didn't like Hoenn. I didn't like the locale very much or the music or the plot or the creature design. So, eh...

    I liked this gen's monsters much less than most of the other gens. I feel like Hoenn's Pokemon were the second most forgettable (after Sinnoh - which I never even beat). But I enjoyed the RSE games more than a few of the last regions/games.

    I'd like to get more information on the games before I fully commit to another Pokemon game, but as I said...I'm hesitantly interested.

    Hesitantly interested is probably a good way to put it. I love pokemon, and I'll more than likely get one of the games, but I'm not sure if I'll beat it. Heck, I still haven't beat Ruby. Although, I'm so excited to see Mega-Sceptile. It'll be interesting to see if it will make my grass team, or not.

    Gen 3 had a lot of issues, but I do have a lot of good memories from it. I really hope that they do some things to fix them up and make ORAS great games. It sounds like they are adding some new plot points and gameplay additions, so that's a start. Difficulty, Pokedex variety, and plot are all things that need improvement...and the surfing in Hoenn gets annoying too but I can't see anything changing about that.

    I spent far too many hours of my childhood on Emerald. I intend to spend a large number of my hours now on this.

    I'm hoping they really do improve it. I hope they make the ocean even more interesting to dive, underwater battles or something like that, similar to the "flying battles" you'd be able to have in X/Y.

    But I don't wanna speculate/spoil too much for myself. The exciting thing is that it comes out around my birthday so I can treat myself and not feel bad!
