  • This unlocked a hidden memory of this old flash game I played as a kid. It was like classic Sonic, but you were this random human guy who had to collect healthy foods throughout the level while avoiding unhealthy ones, and if you collected unhealthy ones your character instantly became obese and couldn’t run or jump very fast making the levels impossible to beat. You had to do push-ups over and over to go back to normal which was tedious.

  • I grew up playing the Sonic Rush series and Sonic Classic Collection on my DS constantly growing up. The fact the classic games were as difficult as they were meant they were ever more satisfying to beat. I later had the original Sonic Adventure on my Xbox 360, and remember begging my parents to let me upgrade to the Director’s Cut because I wanted to unlock Metal Sonic. The Sonic series was a huge part of my childhood, which only made it sadder for me that the series ended up constantly putting out mediocre garbage after Adventure 2 and didn’t improve until Mania, which wasn’t even truly a Sega game. Thanks Ken Pontac and Warren Graff (Pontaff, if you will) for the awful writing in most 3D Sonic games!
