Sonic Adventure 2!!!!!!!!!! This playthrough was a special one. With a working Dreamcast and my childhood copy of SA2 in tow and the release of Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (the movie) coming up, I thought it'd be fun to get some Sonic-loving friends together and do a tag team run, with each of us handling a different gameplay type. Though things took a little longer than expected thanks to us all being more familiar with the Gamecube and PC releases that clean up some of the glitches and camera oddities, and of course the Chao Garden proved very distracting, we managed to finish the day before the movie's release date. It was a lot of fun!! Lots of laughing at each other's goofy deaths, the abysmal sound mixing, the ease with which you can accidentally attack your chao, the earworm voice clips, and the silly lines. We all did it together! I'm even strongly considering attempting to get all 180 emblems to unlock Green Hill. Apparently in the Dreamcast version you don't have to get all A ranks on the Cannon's Core missions, which is awfully enticing. I'll have to see if I can get Dreamcast internet working so I can download holiday costumes and menu themes...
