Sonic and Sega Retro Message Board: Dr. Corndog - Viewing Profile - Sonic and Sega Retro Message Board

This is a few days old now, but I didn't see it mentioned in this thread. It seems there's a bit of shaking up going on throughout Archie, which might explain the cancellation of the Boom comic.

I'm disappointed to hear that Mega Man's ending at issue 55, even if it is (so they say) temporary.

My first thought on entering this thread and seeing the title screen image was "How has such a lame joke made it to three pages without getting locked?"

Seriously, it's like they're not even trying with that title screen.

Just a couple months ago I replayed this for the first time in about ten years, and it was...a lot better than I was expecting. I went into it with all the harsh criticisms in mind that ProJared had, and then some, but I found myself enjoying almost every bit of it. The degree of my enjoyment varied depending on the character, of course, but playing through the story was thoroughly fun. It wasn't until I tried completing secondary missions with certain characters that I began to be truly frustrated.

I had forgotten how much this game improved over SA1, as well. The absence of a pointless hub world made a bigger difference than I'd remembered. The treasure hunting and mech stages were greatly improved by having their own dedicated levels. The boss fights were much better, and the game was improved on some technical levels, as well.

There were better Sonic games before, and there have been better Sonic games since. But although SA2 is overrated by many due to nostalgia, it's still a pretty good game. I'm going to say there's more good in there than bad, even.

Ah. I was viewing it on my phone, so I didn't get a good grasp of the scale.

Mmm. I wouldn't buy the lot, but I'd still pay good money for one of those Genesis covers.
