    been 20 years since you raced into our living rooms and hearts

    had so much fun playing this game and the other games that followed on the genesis

    also had some great midi music as well

    cool story bro alert

    right before i went off to college my parents got new carpeting throughout the house. a friend of mine comes over to play sonic, its the summer i'm the only one home. new freakin carpet like one week. we also had a problem with one of the toilets

    so anyway dude is playing sonic, he's an early version of a "gamer" he beats the thing, it took at least an hour. i had fallen asleep. wake up, walk into the carpeted hallway, squish squish. the toilet had over flowed, neither one of us realized and all the carpet was soaked. my parents had take up and dry it out, luckily all they paid was some more instillation costs.

    all because of that damn game.

    I was so jealous of everyone that had a DreamCast. It was too beautiful for this world.

    my rich friend gave me his my freshman year of college as he got a ps2

    dreamcast had so many awesome games for it but sega messed up when they made it so they had the only GD burners and there just wasnt enough third party software support for it.

    of course then the easy way to download games for it without having to mod-chip it.

    but the technology and the ideas they put in (online gaming) and all were all well ahead of its time.
