Well, technically it was one of those dual consoles, so the Mega-CD was bolted to a base unit shared with a MegaDrive II… and yet we didn't have Sonic CD for it so, like @Thrillho up there, I have zero nostalgia for that specific game. Sol-Feace, on the other hand...
Are you gonna continue through Origins and play Sonic 2 next? It'll be interesting to see whether your fond memories of it still hold up.
@RogerRoger Already played through the first couple of zones! The story mode is a bit of an odd inclusion in Origins but the animated cutscenes are pretty cool and it’s nice to play them all in a row like that. It’s a good game to play in bed on the Switch as well, although I’ve realised that I left it so long that there’s apparently a massive patch/DLC coming!
Outriders — completed the story, there is an end game but I'll probably just jump in and out of it. Enjoyed this one, a really interesting take on looter shooters, story was a bit generic and rushed but it's the end game these games thrive on and I haven't really got in to that yet. The plat is doable but grindy so I'll see if I Enjoy the end game enough to keep going. Some really interesting mechanics and the levelling system is also interesting and well balanced.
The game is £5 in CeX, the campaign takes around 10 to 15 hours and the end game has well over 40 hours of content so if you like shooters it's well worth it. Haven't played co-op yet but I reckon especially in endgame it would be a blast.
