Whichever version is YOUR favourite there’s no denying the genius of Sonic 2!

And its ace gameplay is matched by an amazing backstory!

From the development drama to the historic Sonic 2sDay release SEGA forged a legend!

See it all in our latest vid!

Maybe the most classic SEGA game ever versus maybe the best sequel ever!!

How do you choose between Sonic the Hedgehog and Sonic 2?!

The OG is iconic, genre defining and legendary - and its successor is bigger, faster and even more fun!

It’s a perfect #TwoForTuesday!!

Virtua Cop and its sequel is a MUCH closer contest!!

The first game is a bit bare bones stood next to VC2 but it’s still pin point perfection gameplay wise and set the bar for every light gun game since!

Virtua Cop 2 adds ideas and action to a perfect setup!

Mario Kart 64 had an immense task following the world’s greatest ever kart racer!

This is your friendly reminder that it failed miserably and it’s a godawful mess compared to the godlike SNES original!! 😉

(Don’t @ me. I will die on this hill!)

Yeah that’s so true - there’s a great story in Jaz Rignall’s book about setting a high score on one of them and he was playing for like… a day! And it keeps them fresh all these years later!

I love Pac-Mania, even though I'm no good at it despite many years of attempts to improve. 😁

There's Mario Kart arcade series? This completely passed me by. Here's my nomination for a Namco arcade title from more recent years. 👇

😂 yeah it’s ridge racer! Some old school beefs die hard and that one was just too much the enemy for a SEGA arcade fan boy! 😂😂

Is it Ridge Racer you can't include or are you Tekken the piss?
Anyway I do quite like the old games, remember picking up the 50th anniversary collection on console some time ago. A lot of good stuff despite the obvious absence of anything released in the 3D era.

That’s always allowed! Anything with Toshihiro Nagoshi at the helm is fine in my book!
