Dragon Warrior Monsters came out when I was 10. This game managed to get a nice following in my area and a lot of my friends had it. My parents got me the game after school let out in 2000, so I played this game all summer. I took it with me to summer camps and then I took it with me on the vacation my parents decided to take. We went from Los Angeles to Indianapolis, by car. This game was one of the only games I had with me on the trip, so I played the crap out of it. I enjoyed it so much that I did everything I could think of to do in it. Beat every gate, beat all the trainers at the arena and got just about every monster.

Dragon Warrior Monsters has become one of my favorite games ever, and I enjoy it way more than I have of any Pokemon game, or Pokemon clone. I've always thought the stories were better thought up and it had more character. I also really enjoyed the cameos of all the bosses, though that was something I didn't appreciate until after Dragon Warrior I & II, then III came out for the GBC and I got to actually fight those bosses.
