AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!

TO THE BUNKER!!!!
Don't worry Blaze - we'll be good now. We can Work It Out, let's talk about it. We gotta make it real, why don't you like them?

And yeah, I actually enjoyed Sonic R thoroughly. It was one of those games I often played on co-op, and its short-comings somehow didn't bother me. I even liked the sound track, to be honest.


Can you feel the sunshine~?
Does it brighten up your day~?

Why don't I remember those songs from Sonic R? Maybe I was too young to enjoy them at the time and just wanted to play the game. :unsure:
Those songs you guys posted are great. Now it's time to add them to my iPod.

Being a fan of the blue hedgehog myself ( I am also a fan of Sonic Spinball ^_^ ) Seeing this ported before other titles makes me sad. SEGA has been in my veins since 1982 and watching them drown themselves in rehashed HD bullshyt makes me want to kick a f*cking puppy! Seriously, we got this game on Gem Collection. . . . . . . . that's enough! You want to bring a classic back try Burning Rangers or Bring back the Shining Series in HD dammit.

Indeed, you almost retroactively ruined the warriors for me.

As for the game I think I was spared this one but I would certainly agree Sega has a few more things in libraries (cough, proper Phantasy Star titles, cough... cough, they even probably have code from the Sega Ages ports, cough).

On Sonic spinball. I do not know if it was just because it traded for next to nothing in the game shop back when it was on the megadrive but it was a staple of my megadrive collection as well.

Quite honestly, the game by itself is decent. It's really only fun when you have a friend over, then the game is great. But this could be said about many other fighting games. I'd rather have a SEGA game from the Saturn/DC era, that was never rereleased, than something thats already on the Gamecube.

Gimmicky at best, but hey, Fighting Vipers & omg-I-just-splashed-in-my-kecks VF2 are coming too! Be nice if they gave us Fighters Megamix for free if we bought 2, or maybe all 3 though.... wishful thinking there!

Word is they're sitting on Shenmue 1 & 2, plus Skies is also coming.... they just released NiGHTS and Sonic Adventure 2.... you can forgive them for the odd dodgy addition in my opinion!

It was on the GameCube, though. It was released as part of Sonic Gems Collection.

That's what I said. I worded it badly, but I meant that I would rather have something from the Saturn era, rather than Sonic Fighters, which was on the Gamecube.

I don't see why you guys find Sonic Fighters to be "overly released" when it was only ever available in its original Arcade form and in the Sonic Gems collection for the PS2 and Gamecube. It's not as easy to get your hands on as it seems. I'm quite excited, it's bound to be funny in HD form. :P
