Maybe you can catch them before Black and White come out, so you can say you have caught every pokemon for a month or two.

I have just went back and finished Sonic Colors (Wii). All that is left is to collect all the red rings, get all S ranks and finish all Sonic-Sims stages.
The game is very good. It's probably the best Sonic 3D game we have got ever since the Dreamcast era ended (although we did got Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 ported to GCN eventually). The music is catchy, the controls are responsive and the environment is stunning. Some acts have some hard parts (that might be considered cheap by some), but the experience is still good. You can finish the game relatively quickly but red rings and the ranking system gives it some good replayability. Also, if you're into that thing, you can obtain score ranking via wi-fi and see how you fare with the rest of your region.
Overall, if you like Sonic, you want to give this one a shot. It's a major improvement in what we got this past decade.

If my memory is right, then I think it was Zero 2 on Zero Collection. Jumped into Zero 3 right afterward, but I'm kinda on a hiatus with it.

Spoilers will be kept to a minimum, but they’re still in the review. Beware.Pokemon White Version _____________ I’m rather proud yet nerve racked to say this, but after a short 2 and a half days (got the game on Sunday at around 3pm) but I’ve beaten the main storyline of Pokemon White! Essentially the main storyline is over and all that’s left is competitive battling and post-ending stuff. In the beginning, after the highly amusing battles you have with both of your rivals, Cheron and Bianca (for once in history besides Generation III Hoenn, you can’t name your rivals ). You get the first pick for your starter pokemon (as usual) and Bianca gets the starter that’s weak to yours, and Cheron gets the last, making him potentially a bigger challenge than Bianca in the long run. Team Plasma (the bad guys) make their appearance pretty early on- right in the middle of the first town to give a speech. Then a mysterious pokemon trainer known as “N” (who claims to be able to understand pokemon) challenges you to a battle… Somehow you’ve seen him already. Where could that have been? Didja watch the introductory scene by any chance? (cough cough ) Later on, the story begins revolving around this mysterious trainer N, and eventually wraps around to the possibility of N being a third rival. The entire story is mind blowing, and I was not disappointed once I was drawn into the storyline… and at points there were more than one climax. Enough on the storyline. Lets take a look at a brief list of easter eggs and funny stuff I found while playing through. - You can’t name your rivals
- You get a Fresh Water from the advisor in every gym, should you want it.
- For once, the pokemon’s names aren’t in ALL CAPS
- You can battle the Elite Four in any order
- TMs aren’t broken upon use
- For the first time in history, the dispute with the evil misguided team wasn't resolved before defeating the Elite Four the first time. (not exactly a spoiler, but it's something to think about )
- You have to actually beat the Elite Four (and beat the champ) the second time before getting a "Hall of Fame Debut" (their pokemon are 70+ that time around)
- You can change your wifi lobby sprite and trainer’s nature directly from the trainer card
- Your badges will display the date you obtained them.
- HMs have been severely cut down, and aren’t nearly as common to interrupt general gameplay (FINALLY!)
- Catching the legendary pokemon (Zekrom in this case) is required. If he faints, he won't disappear, and you'll have to try again.
And that’s about it, off the top of my head anyway. I’m sure you’ll notice plenty more and forget like I did. Details: Time: 20:17 3/6/2011 (day of release) Adventure started (3:30pm), badges 1-3 obtained 3/7/2011 Badges 4-5 obtained 3/8/2011 Badges 6-8 obtained and game beaten (a few minutes before midnight XD) The review was done based off of the main storyline with Team Plasma. Post game is unincluded. My rating is a solid 10/10. Don’t knock it till you try it.

Dead Space 2, way scarierand much more fun, but the plot wasn't nearly as good as the first's.
Also Killzone 3, Excellent fun in co-op, didn't try online but I hear it rocks. Only bad part is that the antagonists didn't win.

Finished Magicka's campaign today. Very fun game. It's spell casting system is fun and the story is goofy. There is lot of pop culture references and this is a true fantasy game parody.
You basically play a Wizard. You have access to 8 elements: Water, Life, Shield, Cold, Lightning, Arcane, Earth and Fire. By combining elements, you can unleash a spell either on yourself, around you, on your weapon or at a target. Magick spells are also found around the levels that can be used by combining certain elements to a certain order.
The action is over the top and the mood is hilarious all the way through. The single player campaign can be hard, but makes it up since you have better control on the weapons you pick up on the way. Multi-player is a lot of fun because the chaos that it implies. You can literally kill your partners by accident or on purpose.
There is still some glitches for multi-player, the game can crash without you expecting it. Still, the game is a load of fun. It's available on Steam for 10$ too.

I just finished the main game in Pokémon Black version, with 111 Pokémon and a sickening amount of playtime. I'm hesitant to even tell you how many hours I've clocked in the thirteen days I've had this game, it's so awful. ( 137+hours) I am exhausted. :37: But it was definitely money well spent. No question there. I thought the game was pretty interesting. Maybe it's just because I haven't played Pokémon in two generations (excluding remakes), but it felt way different from anything I would've expected. It almost didn't feel like Pokémon all together. Aaalmost. Restricting the Pokémon to all Gen V mons was an interesting move, but I thought it really felt limiting at times. When you battle trainer after trainer who are each carrying the exact same Pokémon, you begin to wonder if it was such a good idea... >.> But ah well. It got pretty cool toward the end when trainers started busting out fully evolved Pokémons. And yeah. Chances are I'm going to get well into the post-game before the night's through, but I think I'm going to try to take it a bit slower now. I've definitely been spending too much time with this game. If I don't slow down soon, it's going to take a toll on my sanity. Don't want to start having those hallucinations again — I won't lie, it was phun at first, but after a while it really started to get to me. Good thing 3DS is coming soon so I can bust out all those other games I've been waiting to play. (two days!)

Pilotwings Resort. After grabbing the 3DS this Sunday I let nostalgia take over and burned through this thing, everything short of a perfect score on every mission. Well, every non-Rocketbelt-related mission. If there's one thing this franchise has taught me it's that jetpacks are very easy to master, at least in a world with air-brakes that stop on a dime and stabilizers that keep you upright without fail. In three titles, Pilotwings has made a nice tradition of being a Nintendo launch title, each time convincing me that there's no better way for technology to satisfy my high-flying fantasies. In this case, the 3D effect is perfect for aerial maneuvers. MML3 needs some more sky battles with this. Also, being especially fond of PW64's music, I was not disappointed by the soundtrack in PW3D. The Hang Glider theme comes close to being as serene and relaxing as the former's Birdman, though my favorite's got to be its fusion remix in the Pedal Glider theme. The only thing that left me a bit disappointed was the vehicle selection. Two of the unlockable vehicles are just straight-up faster versions of the starter vehicles, and the third comes pretty close but adds at least one little twist to make it worthwhile, then there's the seventh vehicle which is only available in a single mission. The game could have used some more unique oddball modes like Birdman, Jumblehopper, or Cannonball from the other titles.

I defeated Pokemon Black two weeks ago; and this is definitely the best of the series. The plot is deep and well-thought out. N's is actually quite an interesting character. Your rivals's character actually evolve over time. Team Plasma were actually more serious; and were quite ingenious in making the NPCs question their bond with their pokemon. I also love both PC's character designs a lot more than the previous PC's.
I also enjoyed the fact that they finally have a season cycle in the games (which is about time). There's also the option of choosing your PC's nature type when you check your trainer card.
~Ratings~
Story/ Plot: Finally a well-thought out plot that developed characters; and even makes you question whether pokemon are happy being owned by humans or not. Characters are also shown to actually have valid points in believing what they believe in. N has every right to believe that pokemon would be much happier being free while the champion (won't spoil who it is), decided to have a better bond with his pokemon. 10/10.
Gameplay: The game had the feel as if you're playing the first game of a series that just came out; which was the intention. It's like playing Red/Blue/Yellow for the first time. It's also a great idea as the developers wanted a pokemon game where the newbies can play without having a disadvantage of not knowing the pokemon as while as the older players. Some might find it frustrating when it's only new pokemon that you're familiar with. 9/10.
Visuals: Extremely beautiful. The sprites for the humans look a bit thinner and the NPCs and PCs look longer in body than in the forth Gen. Could also be because the PCs are actually older than the previous ones. 10/10.
Overall Rating: 10/10
