The game looks amazing (check out system specs below) and it's enormously fun. Game of the year for me.

Cheapest I found the game anywhere was on Greenmangaming for £16.79 (you get a steam-key upon purchase, don't have to use their client). It's well worth that if you love Sonic (the amount of content is...gigantic, by todays standards). Even if you don't, you probably will after playing this.

Just wanted to give a heads up that someone released an actually truly good game this year.

I heard it's terribly short though

I agree that it's a great game, as a huge fan of the original Sonic trilogy I love the classic Sonic levels & music, it seemed a little short when playing it, but 18 stages compares to the old games and they fluffed up the content with challenges to collect extra artwork/music, but most aren't very challenging or satisfying unfortunately, I'd imagine that's why the launch price was only around £20. Worth it though imo.

I fell sorry for people that grew up with a Sega instead of a proper console like a SNES.

I feel sorry for people that grew up with a console instead of a proper computer.

I feel sorry for old people.


I win? Thought so.

Having a SNES as a kid makes you old?

I dunno. I only played on a PC and a Gameboy.

I lived my childhood in Saudi-Arabia though.

Nah if it used a tape deck to load the games over many minutes and made a sound like a possessed cat being microwaved, you are old.

cheers fella, now i do feel old!

*puts in tape and goes round shops*

fingers crossed it don't crash while loading for whatever reason!
