GSF Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 In a few secs, it'll be November 24th, the 15th anniversary of Sonic 2uesday. We're getting old. 15 years is a lot! I'm gonna play Sonic 2 now to remember the good old times... ...old times that I miss so much.

Spike Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 The anniversary of my very first video game... I feel so old. Great game, great system, all time favorites of mine. Edit: Sonic 2uesday even gets my 1500th post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSF Posted November 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 Your very first videogame... ...wow! The first console I've ever played is the Megadrive, when I was 3 years old. As for the first game, I can't remember but I think it was Sonic 3, the Sonic 1, and then Sonic 2. I can still remember these days... ...I could barely get through Angel Island when I was 3. Now I zoom through these levels. I like Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 (I never played SA2 though... I really want a PC version, dammit!), but SEGA will never bring back the classic elements. Thank god we have the SFGHQ and the various projects! Spike:Great game, great system, all time favorites of mine. Agree. GREAT system.

Spike Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 I agree. But yeah, I got Sonic 2 when I was either 3 or 4. I'm guessing 3, but I remember I was ecstatic when I found out that there were more Sonic games on the way. (Back then I could only get to Aquatic Ruins, heh) I'm pretty sure Sonic 3&K was the first videogame I ever beat 100% (With all Chaos and Super Emeralds) when I was 7 years old. Sonic fanboy ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSF Posted November 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 I beat S3 when I was 5, if I remember correctly. Ah, with all the emeralds. So nice. (It's pretty late, gotta log out already. Bye, I'll log on back later). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rael0505 Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 I never owned a genesis or any genesis games. The first genesis game I played was Sonic and Knuckles Collection for the PC. I didn't know you could actually choose which game to play, and when my sister accidentally hit left or whatever at the menu screen I played Mushroom Hill for the first time and thought I entered some secret code to advance further in the game. Good times. hb Sonic 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shadix Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 I was a Sonic 2 baby, got a Genesis with the Sonic 2 pack-in when I was 2 or 3 and was hooked after that... Didn't play the original until at least '97. Ironically, I tend to not like Sonic 2 as much as the other genesis games. Sonic 3 occupied me quite a bit when I was younger, and when we finally got Sonic and Knuckles in like 95ish I played the crap out of S3K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark team Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 Ahh Sonic 2 This was the second game that I ever played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Roy Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 My first game was the original Mario Bros. followed up by Sonic 2 (got the Genesis/Sonic 2 compilation system). God, that was ages ago. Hard to believe that in another few years I'll be married and working as an accountant-- never dreamed of that kind of shit 15 years ago.

Spike Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 No, I had it too. Took me freaking years to find the PC styled music on the internet. How awesome it was. PC Launch Base is possibly one of my favorite Sonic songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark team Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 I have both collections Sonic & Knuckles PC collection and Sonic Mega Collection PLUS. Wonder why did they put some Sonic CD sounds to Sonic 1, Sonic 2, Sonic 3, Sonic & Knuckles, Knuckles in Sonic 2, Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrKsoft Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 My first non-educational computer game was Sonic 3 and Knuckles, when the PC version came bundled with my family's new (and then extremely extremely high end) Pentium 2 computer. I remember that on the first day I tried it, I could not figure out how to get through the first loop in the game. XP I never knew anything about Sonic 2 until almost three years after I first played Sonic 3, when I became old enough to start exploring the internet and found Genecyst and a Sonic 2 ROM. I thought it was really odd compared to Sonic 3. (Of course, I thought Sonic 1 was even more bizarre when I was unable to spindash) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kain Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 Wow, really? The first game I remember having was Zaxxon for the Atari 5200. Granted, it was a hand-me-down and the Atari 5200 was discontinued before I was born and it would pretty quickly be handed down again. So probably a better first game would be the original Zelda.

Mark the Echidna Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 Well, I had a Master System, so I played the MS version of Sonic 2 way before the MD one. In fact, I only got to play the MD version of Sonic 2 many years later, when I got a K6-II that could emulate the MD games in real time. (Before that I had a 486 T_T, and neither KGEN98 or Genecyst would run at full speed.. But it did run Sonic & Knuckles Collection, so Sonic 3 was the first MD game I played) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
