I agree with Ele to an extent about Pokemon. I started playing Pokemon a while back and I decided to work from gen one to gen six. Gen one of my child-hood memories so Pokemon red is close to my heart. To answer your question about which Pokemon game to chose I would honestly pick the newest one Ruby and Sapphire. They have the best graphics so far and the fact that it's a revamp of an older game makes it even better. Now that I'm done with my little rant I'll tell you that X and Y's new Pokemon suck ass. Stay away from those damn games.
