    That was my plan all along! And there's no Batman to save you with his "urge for Sonic R ost reversal spray" either. Muhahahaha~

    You know for the most opinionated member when it comes to gaming on boards.ie, i have never once seen Retr0 use the term "imo / in my opinion!"

    Its almost like he tries to get his views across as fact the odd time on here! :pac:

    But I'm always right.... In my opinion.

    I'm actually quite the fan of old school Amy Rose as well. Thought she was fun as the obsessive Sonic fanboy. She's just gotten boring now that they changed that.

    Sadly, a lot of the time, however much I try to argue with him, he's right.
    Which is why we all want to punch him in the testes see more of his enlightened opinions in A&R

    The original 2D game will be 25 years old in June! :eek:

    Isn't it amazing how much games changed in the 5 years between the originals and Duke 3D, compared to Duke 3D and games now?

    I think that's why it seems so insane to think it's 20 years old.

    Plus it also made me realize I would have been 12 when I was throwing money at those pixelated strippers :pac:

    FFVII was released 19 years ago today in Japan.

    Maybe a good one for the week after.

    Just finished Sonic 2, admittedly with a little help from the generous save system on the 3DS version.
    What an excellent game, surprised it has taken me this long to get to it!

    What about the 2 player mode though, the visual compression is ingenious though I don't think they repeated it in later games, did they?

    I'm not sure on the compression part but there was a 2P mode in Sonic 3 just in case you might have missed it. They were totally different levels to the 1p mode.

    missed this! on my phone so no long post ...but in a nutshell: Sonic 2 ..loved it..probably fave sonic game... If I remember rightly finished it but didnt get the full ending ..the co op tails mode was fantastic and the bonus levels were a game in themselves.
