Okay, I got the Xbox but my friend Matt couldn't find
the copy of Skyrim but he did have another game for me: the Mega
Drive Ultimate Collection. Ladies and gentlemen, the soundtrack to my
childhood:
Okay, I have a console powerful enough to render 3D
graphics, soundtracks involving voice acting and games that can last
me weeks but, you know what? I've forty 16-bit games from my
childhood and that's enough to keep me amused for a while. Who knows,
after twenty years I might even be able to finish Sonic The Hedgehog
3?
Yes, shamefully I have never got further than the
Carnival Night Zone and some day I might have to admit to myself I
never will but that is not this day!
Plus Ecco The Dolphin and Ecco II: The Tides Of Time.
The comic adaptation in Sonic The Comic ended before I got to find
out who was behind the shenanigans in Tides Of Time so that's worth
playing if only to settle a dangling plot thread that hasn't bothered
me since about 1996. Plus there are a load of Phantasy Star games
which I hope have a save function because 16-bit RPGs were the most
frustrating things ever when they didn't have that option.
Sonic 3D's on there but they couldn't all be winners, I
suppose.
