Batting for the other team.

New review up, this time for Sonic the Hedgehog. Yes, I wrote a review for a Genesis title. Gasp! Yeah, well, a platformer's a platformer, regardless of what, uh, platform it's on. It's not like I ever cared about the whole Nintendo vs Sega rivalry anyway; I didn't even know there was a rivalry back then.

But anywho, yeah, review. Read it. Sure, it's a bit longer than I initially expected (just under 10KB), but I had an idea of how to write it and I had to go with it. Unfortunately, I was afraid that the message would get lost (an all too common occurence when you try to praise and bash a game at the same time), so I tossed in an extra paragraph to add a little emphasis to how much my opinions varied across the game. Hopefully it's clear.

And don't forget to check out my editorial (see below) too! 'Tis a rant against the ridiculous pedestal Nintendo fans seem to place the SNES on. Oh sure, you could find plenty of prolific folk on this site who would be happy to bash the SNES. But you should still read mine, since A) I don't care about the Genesis, or Sega in general for that matter, B) I still like the system, and (perhaps most importantly) C) I don't use words like "snerd". So read it, comment, ignore it, whatever.
