Soul Silver definitely. It's really awesome to have your favorite pokemon follow you everywhere. And it has a lot more features than Platinum does.

My favorites!



Soul Silver, you get access to all the old pokemon again! Not to mention what monkfishlover said about the pokemon following you, and the new graphics.

Platinum



I don't have SS, but HG is great... if you don't mind replaying the storyline of G/S. That should be a no-brainer, but I know someone who didn't realize it was a remake until after she started it... o.e

HG/SS
-Repeated storyline
-Better controls (more use of touch screen)
-Pokemon follow you around like in Yellow.... it's so cute
-Much, MUCH better starters!!
-There's two regions, but you know that already. More gym leaders to battle happy.gif And there's Red!
-The Pokeathlon. It's..... interesting. A good way to get evolutionary items.
-The nostalgia factor happy.gif And the music is great! -sings Team Rocket battle theme-
-It's a lot easier to keep track of the different kinds of Unown that you've caught.

Platinum
-There's an interesting storyline.... and an awesome villain! The storyline continues even after you become Champion.
-Controls are more like the older games. But they're annoying to switch to after HG/SS.
-The Poketch is pretty nice. But I like Pokegear too.
-The Underground. Some items are easy to get, and it's much easier to get fossils if you're into that kind of thing.
-After you're Champion, there's the Fight Area and all kinds of crazy stuff to do.
-Contests. I like contests better in R/S/E, but there aren't any contests at all in HG/SS so if you like contests, you should get Platinum.
-If you like to interact with your friends with Pokemon games, Platinum's good... there are many ways to interact in HGSS too, but you actually get rewarded for meeting friends in the Underground in Platinum... you get a Spiritomb.
-Rotom! That would be enough to get me to buy it xD

Hope that helped.

I played both of them, first Platinum, then Soul Silver. Love them both, but perhaps Platinum a bit more. The Reverse Universe with Giratina is amazing. You should buy the one with more of your favorite Pokemon. OK, you can trade and everything, but it's not the same like having them as starters right from the beginning. Personally, I love Piplup very much -> Platinum. The 3D effects of Soul Silver aren't that great, Platinum can easily compete.

Yessssssh. I love Cyrus so fucking much.
I personally prefer Platinum, but it all boils down to which generation you prefer/which has your favorite Pokémon. If Crystal is your favorite game, buy it and enjoy. :P

Platinum is my favourite game, so I'd recommend that. Plus, if I had already played GSC but hadn't played DP, I'd rather not play a repeated storyline.

However, if you've played DP, I'd say go with SS.

SoulSilver. Pokemon to follow you, better features, and the original Pokemon are always better than the new ones.

The Runaways



If you're looking for something new, seeing as you've said that you've played the original G/S games already, then I'd recommend Platinum with its fresh plot. If you don't mind nostalgia and revel in lots of neat lil' features, then I'd say go with SS~

If you bought Diamond or Pearl, definitely get Soul Silver. Even if you didn't, I'm leaning towards Soul Silver.

SoulSilver I would have to say, there just seems to be a lot in SS/HG

Platinum has Regigigas and Zapdos
SoulSilver has Raikou, Zapdos, and Mewtwo

SS wins >_>

I'd say PT and SS are even, yet, PT has a very interesting storyline, TR are a bit boring, TG are funny and actually use rare pokemon (Stunky & Glameow). I'm leaning towards PT more, but if you have D/P go with SS; if you have G/S/HG go with PT.
But really it's your choice, of course. You don't really need opinions on this sort of thing, I guess.

My Favorites



I own both games (I own Heart Gold). I honestly prefer Platinum though because the gameplay seems longer. Johto is just too small of a region. Even combined with Kanto the gameplay of it seems so much shorter. Plus they makes things far too easy for you. I miss the challenge of the GBC games. :/ But honestly, it is up to you on what you want.

SS. Platinum bored me to death, I never even finished it. <.< I don't think I can give anymore reasons why SS is better, just look above me. XD
