Pokémon Pearl
Plane rides? Great for Pokémon. Got my second badge, and a kickass bike.
From the get-go it has not been my intent to "catch them all," or to become unendingly immersed in hidden game mechanics, and thus far it is working out great. The simplicity of the core game is great fun.
I named my Psyduck Qork, and my Ponyta Princess. They are awesome.
