I actually didn't hate Advance 3's hub worlds - or any of it, really! In something like Adventure or Unleashed, you're just trotting about talking to people - it feels a bit off. Advance 3 had you still running and jumping about in a familiar style, and had a few little bits and pieces to find or un...

I had a big dumb grin on my face the whole way through the initial trailer. It took me wayyy back in time, man! Suddenly, I'm standing in the middle of Sega World at the Trocadero again, playing NiGHTS for the first time, backlit with neon and pumping techno. I'm all over this like a seagull on chip...

Maybe they could switch things up a bit by starting with Chemical Plant first this time, followed by Green Hill. Hire me, Sega!

It's all very exciting! I like perving over co...

Yeah... it was a whole thing.

Enjoy the decade-old, second-hand embarrassment!

Good points, well made. I think for me, the palette swaps at least alleviated some of the gripes I had about returning zones, and made the Act 2 remixes feel a bit more original (even if superficially). I also rated the Special Stages - easily my favourite of the series so far - even if the Encore M...

I've got pretty high hopes for a sequel. Aside from the end credits scenes (seriously, can we talk about those?!) I think that the success of the first one, especially following the very public reaction to the redesign, shows that you don't have to veer too far off track to adapt a property like thi...

Picked this up recently to play with the missus, and we've had a great time so far. You guys hit the nail on the head regarding the difficulty - sometimes this game makes me feel like a total chump! More so than usual, anyway. One standout issue for me is actually the game length... maybe I'm just m...

Is there a reason they're remaking Miracle World specifically? I appreciate that (based on purely anecdotal evidence) it's the most popular instalment by a country mile, but surely the game will already be playable on most platforms where this is being released ? It certainly is on Switch and PC th...

Oh, behave.

I did this a while back. It was excruciating. Thank Christ we came of age before everything we did online was automatically tied to our actual goddamn names. Fuck it, I knew I spelled it wrong -- now that's ekscrewshiating. Joke's on me, I guess, 'cause I was a li'l bitch in real life too. I don't ...

Hello, The GHZ. Just popping in to let everyone know what I thought of the Sonic the Hedgehog real life action movie. I'm sure you were all dying to know, right? Well, I liked it! So there we are. And while I'm here: that Sonic Mania was a bit of alright, wasn't it? Also - slightly off topic - sorry...

Woooo! Zeldaaa!

Gee Aych ZED. Goddamned colonials.

I don't know what any of that means. When's the next Zelda game coming out?

...awesome!

News!

September 18 for PSN, 19 for XBLA/Steam, low low prices all round. Let the good times roll!

Dear Esther is pretentious, meandering and devoid of motivation. See, I can use $5 words too!

I know I'm just being argumentative now, but I'm baffled that you could ever consider Ico to be vapid, or SotC to be kitschy (seriously?). Also, you started it.

You are a miserable bastard.

WOOB...

WOOB...

WOOB...

And then... then you get to a stage that is entirely you climbing a mountain. With the rope. WOOB. FUCK.

You are all crazy! Land of Illusion is clearly the superior title (IN MY OPINION LOL), although I did play my fair share of Castle as a kid - the Master System version, with the candy stage replacing the ancient ruins-type stage (but retaining that badass music). I had fond memories of World's co-op...

PlayStation Plus is that subscription thing where you can pay to get things for free.

Fuck Journey, man. I just wanna hear more about Yuki.

This has made my entire week. Fuck it, this has retroactively made the entire last fifteen years of my life. DAY ONE PURCHASE GUYS

...this is coming out in England, right?

...did you watch the same footage that I did? Sonic seems a lot looser, accelerates decently, and (notably) his spin attack speed is affected by how fast he is moving. It's pretty difficult to tell without a hands on, but it didn't look at unnatural and stiff as Episode I. On a related note; in all ...
