I feel your pain. I'm on my second too. A friend of mine is on his fourth... FOURTH!!! Fuck that, man. I haven't played mine in months.

sega genesis.

at this point, you could get one, plus a shit ton of great classic games, for the price of a 360 alone.

plus, he would be different from all his friends.

oh sonic the hedgehog, how i miss you....

I was playing this on nmy friends wii....oh the nostalgia. Got to the last level but never to metal sonic. couldn't handle it.

Yeah, there's 2 Sonic Collections for Gamecube. Both pretty necessary. (The Gems Collection if only for Sonic CD!)

jerf · 08.20.2009, 06:43 PM

ive bought that game in so many forms its not even funny. i have it on my original genesis, an xbox collection disc, xbox live arcade game, and some new xbox 360 sonic collection.

the ending is so ridiculously hard, i only beat metal sonic by pausing and saving it on the xbox version, and restarting my saves when i die.
in other words, cheating.

noisereductions · 08.20.2009, 06:43 PM

which are we talking about? Sonic 2? That's my favorite anyway.

noisereductions · 08.20.2009, 06:43 PM

floslo, where's my fucking Wii?

atsonicpark · 08.20.2009, 10:47 PM

The Genesis rules. There is a Genesis collection, which has most of its best games, out for the 360, for like $30. That'd probably be a better route. Or, uh, emulate.

If you're going to get an old system, get an SNES. Tetris Attack and Super Metroid alone is worth the price.

Also, Genesis hasn't been hip in like 15 years.

deflinus · 08.20.2009, 10:53 PM

i'd say xbox 360. cheaper and better games. i haven't had any problems with my xbox but then again, i don't really use it that much. the ps3 recently had a price drop to $299 for an 80GB. and they're coming out with the new slim ps3 next month. meh, i'll probably buy it but i don't think i will

i do miss that playstation controller though..

noisereductions · 08.21.2009, 07:04 AM

SNES is a million times better than Genesis.

Link To The Past, Mario Kart, Mario World...

noisereductions · 08.21.2009, 01:23 PM

floslo, just checked my mailbox... no Wii.

Don't forget Mario Allstars, that bizarre Ms PacMan game Yoshis Island, Donkey Kong Country.... etc

atsonicpark · 08.21.2009, 03:14 PM

I wouldn't say it's a million times better. The Genesis probably had more great games, overall (Beyond Oasis, Ranger X, Mega Turrican, Gunstar Heroes, Pulseman, Vectorman, Alien Soldier, Landstalker, Phantasy Star IV, Shining Force, Streets of Rage 2-3, Shinobi, etc., etc., etc.). It's just that the SNES had a few of the best games of all time on it.
