games tend to go with was is most relevent at the time or what goes with the story if the game is based in the middle east it doesn't make much sense to shoot a bunch of canadians

meh I am too tired too argue right now, I will just point to the way we view a lot of old movies involving black people right now though.

I will also just point out that islamiphobia is raising in many places, and being an American shooting at Islamic terrorists is not helping.

((NO I AM NOT SAYING Video games cause violence, but media can influnce peoples views on certain groups))

Gah I said I wouldn't argue, Argleflagle why do I have no self control

i still have my genesis from like 20 years ago but my tv doesn't hook up to it

Used to have a Genesis, but I left it behind when I ran away to be with my mate. Its okay though, cause I can just emulate the games I used to have, it feels the same.

I never owned a Genesis, but I believe I played one briefly as a little kid. I only vaguely remember holding the controller.

I do LOVE the music on Genesis games, at least when the sound people know what they're doing.

I had a lot of magical memories with that console. The Sega Genesis is responsible for the first video game I ever played, Sonic the Hedgehog, which sparked a fandom I became a part of, which resulted in me meeting my soul mate.

Damn, I owe Sega a lot!

I believe the game that got me into the Sonic fandom was Sonic Heroes, though I heard of the series way before. People hate that game for whatever reason, but I enjoyed it immensely, and I still do. And I have the PS2 version, which is apparently the shittiest one.

I played many other Sonic games on Mega Collection Plus as well.

Sonic X was one of the few TV shows I watched as a kid, but I rarely managed to catch it.

I have Mega Collection Plus as well, thoroughly burned out that collection. I watched Sonic X as well, not such great memories. I found out that they essentially ripped the storyline of Sonic Adventure 2 and made Chris take over Amy's lines because Chris has to be important. Plus Cream's voice became unbearably annoying by the end of season 2 and the third season was fairly stupid, with Tails' relationship with Cosmo feeling forced.

I only saw some of the first season, but when I heard about the other seasons, I was a bit irritated by the direction it took. And I agree with the Tails x Cosmo thing.
