    I don't know if Taxman and Stealth are reading all these comments, but I just had to come give you guys my kudos. A sincere thank you to everyone who developed, tested, and pushed this game through the beurocracy of SEGA. Sonic 2 is the favorite game of my life, simple as that. I used to spend hours reading Sonic comics and listening to the HPZ music at the local grocery store in the sound test because my parents wouldn't buy me a Genesis. After 20 odd years I finally get to play it, and it really means the world to me.

    You guys haven't just made my day or my week, you've made my fucking millenium. I bought this port right away and I bought every other as well. Amazing, brilliant work guys.

    Are you guys doing any 2 player matchmaking? That was the thing I was most excited about, until I heard about HPZ being finished.

    So, as I predicted, they are stringing us along with little tidbits of info and building up hype over substance. Let's hope that the game doesn't turn out to be shit. Ep1 was hyped the same way and was a disappointment. Generations was revealed early and often to the point that it was major spoilers and that game ended up being awesome.

    Android 4? Am I missing something here?

    The big thing with Ice Cream Sandwich was tablet compatibility - quite possibly it runs better on larger devices now.

    Android 2x was the phone only series that included Donut, Eclair, Gingerbread, and a couple other versions. This series was used on some tablets (against Google's wishes) which basically made the tablets look and feel like massive phones. Android 3 was Honeycomb, which Google hacked together in a hurry to compete with the iPad. It has the new tablet UI with split pane views similar to the iPad interface and much better multitasking. In their haste to get it to market, Google broke a lot of the phone stuff, and that's why they took so long to release the source code, they didn't actually finish it really until they finished ICS. Android 4 is Ice Cream Sandwich, and is basically a completed version of Honeycomb with all the phone stuff fully realized and fixed. ICS has both a traditional phone UI for small screens, and the new tablet UI from Honeycomb, and switches UIs automatically based on your screen size. For all intents and purposes, ICS is pretty much Honeycomb final. It's kind of like the difference between Windows Vista and Windows 7.
