I dub thee–Retro Week!

May 5th, 2008 · 1286 Comments

Some time two weeks ago or so, I ended up looking up Spyro the Dragon music on Youtube and enjoying it and I played Sonic games with my friend Bob. Just about everyone recognizes that the Sega Genesis owns soooo…

I have brought my Sega Genesis on campus and left my 360 home while replacing it with my PS2 and some PSX games. It’s the week before finals and I was getting pretty bored with my 360 and my general disinterest in some of its games, so why not play some oldies?

I placed Sonic & Knuckles with a friend, but I think I’ll do a run-through of the first Sonic. I’ve gotten pretty far in the past and even though I have a thing for dying since my skills have somewhat gone down the drain, I plan to play some Sonic in between studying hours (I’ll be studying for about 4 hours a day…yeesh).

While Sonic the Hedgehog is in the Genesis, I have the first Spyro the Dragon playing quite well on my true love, the Playstation 2. I’ll keep you posted on how the fun goes.

If you wish to partake in Retro Week, bust out the PS2, the original Xbox, your Gameboys of any type, your Dreamcast if you still have one, your Nintendo64 or whatever else you have and play to your heart’s content! This is for the sake of Finals, I tell you!
