Yeah I loved the decks of cards on the casino acts. I'd not seem them in action before playing it so I was impressed with how sonics runnin around the level on this moving deck. Pretty cool.

Well i'd love to pay Sega/Sony the money for this game, but seeng as Sony are the biggest cock blocking corp ever i dont have PSN access

But at least i can have access to AsbestOS (Linux access once again... well its semi working i think) and the ability to play some homebrew (Snes9x has been ported & work on MAME, NullDC + PcSX2 ins underway)

So Sonic 4 can wait :)

I'm up to the final boss too, and you're right, he's a tough one. Personally, I really love the game. It really does feel like a classic, old school Sonic game, and the difficulty is well judged. No cheap deaths here, which was one thing I was worried about.

Best moment for me? Completing act 2 of Lost Labyinth Zone with just five seconds left on the clock!

^Ha I actually ran out of time on that one on my first try. I thought it was going to send me right back to the start but luckily it just takes you to the last checkpoint but the clock has reset to zero. I got my first emerald on the special stage on my first try with 0.47 seconds on the clock. That was a close one.

I almost threw my xbox across the room - but it's pretty much the same as before....

The 4th one takes the cake with the bumpers. And yes, the 7th is a runner-up. >_<

But alas, I spent yesterday playing and completing Sonic 4. And it's really fun. And I do disagree on the final boss part. After you get a hang of it, he becomes easy. Not gonna spoil it, though, that I'll leave it up to you. :P

Also, I'll go into more detail on Sonic 4 on the video review, look up for that.
I live here now!

By the time I eventually beat the last boss I'd done it that many times I can probably do it with my eye's closed now but that's purely through repetition.

Yeah, I couldn't work out the boss at the start, buy after playing through it a few times it felt pretty easy and became quite enjoyable too.

Really good game though, love it!
