The single greatest moment of my life will occur in 2010
Meeting the girl of my dreams? Landing that writing gig at the New Yorker? Closing out Game 7 of the World Series? Silly readers, none of those moments, were they to happen, would even come close to being in the same ballpark of being able to be even remotely compared to this:
Sonic 4? A side scroller? That picks up right after the action of Sonic and Knuckles? Yes, please!
You people might not understand how significant an event this is. I’ve been a Sega guy my whole life. I never owned a Nintendo, but I did own a Sega CD and a Dreamcast. Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is, in this blogger’s myopic opinion, the single greatest achievement in the history of video games. I played that game until my thumbs were raw and bloody. The Sonic games of my late adolescence, early teens, late teens, early 20s, and mid 20s have been, to say the least, uninspiring. But this? This Sonic 4? This thing looks like it was handed down by God Herself. I’m beside myself with excitement.
