Sonic Adventure was one of the first games I remember playing. I was round a friend’s house and was blown away by how fun it was when he put it on, even though I was very bad at it! Whenever I would visit him I would beg to play on it again rather than his other games!
Therefore, I am glad to see that Sonic Adventure is now available again for me to get a slice of gaming nostalgia. Many consider the two Adventure titles to be the best 3d Sonic games, even though they haven’t exactly had good quality follow ups. I’m looking at you, Sonic Unleashed. The game has been remastered with 720p graphics and Dolby Digital Sound to make the most of it being on a HD console. It is currently available on the Live Arcade for 800 points, and will be available on the PSN on September 22nd for £ 6.29.
Sega have also released a trailer which is available on Youtube.
I really want to try Skies of Arcadia, so I hope they port that too. Any other Dreamcast games you want brought to Live Arcade and PSN?
