Kills me that l never finished this on the PS2 all those years ago.
I’d have taken a few of those out. Prefer Sonic over Sonic 2. Outrun should be in there. Maybe even Pong as millions of people had fun with that even if it was repetitive. Final Fight pipped any Streets of Rage game, although Streets of Rage had the better soundtrack. Too many to list l guess. To me, retro gaming is the 1980s, maybe going into early 1990s.
The price of Apple products is staggering. Their charging cables never last long, yet they sell for a whopping £29. Now have to use another brand for less than half the price. The price of their Vision Pro is eye popping.
A lot of bad Sonic games over the years. After Sonic Adventure 2, although Sonic Adventure was better, Sonic died. Apart from the Sonic Racing, that's pretty much it. Sonic Frontiers, SEGA should've knocked out Sonic Adventure 3. These SEGA collections have been knocking around for too long. There's been too much dumbness at SEGA.
They're all in it for the money obviously, many gaming companies have shifted away from consoles such as Atari, SNK and SEGA as examples. Never understood why Microsoft joined the 'console war', which at the time, it was up against the Dreamcast, GameCube and PlayStation 2, not forgetting the PC. A typical 'business brain' would rather make more millions or billions from software than faff on with the added cost of a console. Microsoft messed up with Windows and Interne...
Console growth with painfully slow game releases. Not much growth then.
Like the Amazon Firestick, it’s used mostly for dodgy apps/software. I’m not a tech expert, but lack of memory on this will hit sales. Sony could’ve been sneaky and followed the Firestick route to allow gamers to do whatever they wanted.
Single format. I'm sick of all these console and also the cost. £70 for game is something I can't afford.
Microsoft showcase games, then we wait years to play them.
It was bad enough having four consoles plus the PC when the Dreamcast started that generation. I don’t care for Xbox console now. No interest in VR, they could’ve just made the Series X compatible with headsets already on the market. The cost of gaming now, 2 consoles from Sony and Nintendo is good enough for me.
Diddy Kong Racing wasn’t a good racer, it really wasn’t. Surprised there’s not been a new Wario game, last one l played was on the GameCube. Given up waiting for Pilotwings, F-Zero, Stunt Race, 1080 Snowboarding and the biggest of them all, Wave Race. Also surprised Splatoon on the Wii U wasn’t ported to the Switch. Lastly, I’d be pushing the boat out wish for Mario All Stars on the Switch, including Mario World 1 and 2.
Never understood Microsoft's business model with Xbox and PC gaming. The Xbox was a great console, but it just couldn't hit Sony and Nintendo console numbers. The Xbox 360, I'd say more than half the sales was due to the RRoD fiasco. For me, the best console generation as a teenager was Mega Drive/Super Nintendo, as an adult, Dreamcast/Xbox/GameCube/PlaySt ation 2. We'll never seen a single format, but I couldn't care less if I'm playing games on console X or conso...
Probably the most successful handheld of all-time.
Great sales figures for a handheld.
This looks so PS2 era. The first game on the PS wasn't a big game, I'd have expected 1 and 2 to be stuck together as one game. On the PS2, Silent Hill 2 was bugged and always crashed at the start (inside the apartment block). The Room was also bugged (the jumper puzzle). The only Silent Hill game I finished was the first one on the PS. Like Resident Evil, Silent Hill didn't move with the times.
The original Xbox was a bit of disaster, not so much the Xbox 360 even with the RRoD that generated millions of extra sales. With the Xbox One and Xbox Series X, Microsoft simply forgot the games. Microsoft loves Windows and the PC too much, which is why it forgot about people who'd paid into Xbox. Going into 2024, Microsoft yet again showcases games like they do every year. Saying that, it's not as if Sony is throwing out loads of AAA games. It's eyewatering pricing of its P...
Bit weird how some Dreamcast games (when it died), didn't get ported to the PS2 and Xbox. Powerstone, SEGA Rally 2 and Cosmic Smash a few as examples.
Another wham bam Sonic game. I'd have expected Sonic Adventure 3 by now. Can't be done with fast paced Sonic games. Virtua Racing 2, Virtua Fighter 6 and ESWAT 2 are well overdue.
So every gamer in the world can afford a digital game starting at £70? I think not.
Will there be a physical release?
