On top of all of this, you had two-player split screen! This was very, very cool back in 1992, even if the picture looked stupidly squashed and the slowdown was a pain in the arse. We all loved Tails back then, the little two-tailed fox. Why? Well it was just like the first one but faster, harder, better, strongerвЂ¦ and it had Tails! Critics praised both versions to the skies вЂ“ obviously the MD version was the one that got all the attention. NoВ one was disappointed when the big release date came. For those of us who couldnвЂ™tВ afford Mega Drives however, it was a game we took to our hearts, and anyway, regardless of which of the two consoles you had, by the time Sonic the Hedgehog 2 was due to come out, hedgehogВ hype was at fever pitch. The only real criticism you could have against it were that it simply wasnвЂ™t as good as the MD. I suppose you could say that things felt a lot less quintessentially SonicВ on the MS, but it was still a wonderful game, a really great platformer and, although no game-changer like the MD, a smaller, cosier experience that was very charming indeed.

Therefore, instead of weakly porting the MD, the developers of MS Sonic decided to create its own game entirely.

Stuff like the beloved loop-de-loops, the wild and wacky bonus stages and the torrent of rings that were released whenever you sat on a spike were nowhere to be found on the MS. Because the MS was half as powerful as the MD, it couldnвЂ™t hope to emulate its big brotherвЂ™s speed and complexity. In comparison, the version of Sonic the Hedgehog that was released for the Sega Master System (MS) was a different kettle of fish (or should I say bag of hedgehogs?). Oh, did I mention that IвЂ™ve been referring to the Mega Drive (MD) version? ThatвЂ™s what most people think of when they think of Sonic.

IвЂ™ve played Sonic recently and it really still is a joy вЂ“ slick, sleek and super-smooth, full of inventive levels, eye-popping graphics, wonderful music and thrillingly fast gameplay. I know, I know, we were wrong вЂ“ the plumber would ultimately win the war, but who can be blamed for falling for the blue oneвЂ™s thrills back then? Besides, time has been exceptionally kind to both sides. Back in the early 1990вЂ™s, SegaвЂ™s Sonic the Hedgehog was a top-speed sensation вЂ“ gorgeous, dazzling, kineticвЂ¦ it was a sheer thrill to play.
