Actually Sonic 3 is a slight improvement in this regard once you get the hang of things - Tails can be more helpful, and carry Sonic to higher ledges

Sonic 2.

Controlling Tails can be good fun if you’re very young and don’t fully know what you’re doing!

Can be hard keeping both characters on screen at times though.

After resisting at first, I started listening to the RDR1 soundtrack again recently and then the nostalgia became so strong I just had to buy it. I bought the Switch cartridge from Amazon for £30 a few days ago.

Is it a fair price? Not really. Is it a game I don’t expect a heavy discount on any time soon because it’s Rockstar? Yes. Am I enjoying playing again, at way higher resolution and clarity than it ever was on PS3? Absolutely.

It’s actually a better port than I was expecting, and much more of an upgrade than I expected from PS3.

I guess nothing’s changed then haha. I have a 2015 LCD Bravia. No longer my main TV, but it’s been awesome.

But the delay between turning it on and being able to switch inputs… Jesus.

Yeah, I was a huge fan of that person going to that length, and saying they’d argued with their girlfriend about it, haha

Confusingly both. The name is from the red panda, but the icon is absolutely a fox!

This article immediately had me searching in confusion over whether the logo is a fox or meant to be a panda! What is your logo? Fox or red panda?

Playing 2600 on original hardware is pretty awesome.

Probably up next on my retro gaming to-do list!

Yeah, I’d actually only ever played VII and VIII before recently.

Now I seem to be going backwards through the series. Played VII, VI, and now V, where I currently find myself doing some rather boring endgame grinding to try to defeat the final boss battle.

Oldest this year.

But maybe up until this year, or in the last 5 years would have been the more interesting question.

Yeah, Myst was definitely something else when it came out

Yeah, playing Resident Evil for the first time was something incredibly atmospheric and special. I rented it from Blockbuster and knew straight away I had to buy it.

Before it released my friend and I used to speed-run the Resident Evil 2 demo which let you play as far as you could get into the full game, but with an 8 minute time limit.

Yeah, I very nearly added seeing the Mortal Kombat arcade to my original post but decided maybe I was writing too much!

Shake it baby!

I feel the same way about it being a privilege. I missed the earliest part… but even to have lived through the NES and Master System era through to today has been amazing.

Games will continue getting ever more impressive, but nobody again will witness the kind of seismic leaps in what games could accomplish that people saw between the 70s and 2000s.

Just remembered that seeing Doom for the first time is another obvious one. Man that game was incredible when it came out.

Excellent work, my favourite Mario Kart due to countless, countless hours spent playing at uni.

Need to set that bad boy to 4:3 not 16:9 for the aspect ratio to be correct though!

Ah, just seen there is a separate disks app installed that partitions without this issue. So all good!

Glad I read this - all my other devices block ads perfectly well already, but was wondering if I could block YouTube ads on my Apple TV… I guess not!
