Would he do it? Who’s to say, but with both Sonic and Mario going all 2D on us, maybe he could be tempted…

Yeah, you’re right! Right now I’m looking forward to Xbla Earthworm Jim remake! Can’t wait, should be out soon.. I just hope they don’t mess with graphics and gameplay. Also, they (EJ and Cool Spot) were both by David Perry, think about how cool would be him developing a 2d sequel!

You’re right about Sonic. I vividly remember bunking school to spend 8 hours finishing it, including all the secret bits – and man has that little blue fella sucked large for a long time. With any luck, this new one will rekindle the flames of fandom and show a lot of younger players exactly what it was we all went doolally over in the first place.

Oh, and Krazyface, Earthworm Jim! Yeah, there’s another great 2D platforming memory. Shall I say Cool Spot right now? Greatest videogame character walk ever.

Might be because I work as a game developer, but I really feel so! Also, Sonic is great (or was great) and could be great again (that’s what we all wish and hope). Beside that, did I mention I love SEGA?

Good article, but I would pay full price for a new, AAA 2D Sonic! Or, if you want, for a good AAA 2D platformer!

Good read Mr.Sid! It’s true what you say about the lack of humor in games now-a-days. I remember playing silly stuff when I was a kid like Maniac Mansion, which was full of crazyness that would probably be left out of a modern production. Earth Worm Jim also had a great ammount of sillyness and wasn’t afraid to use it.

The cow at the very end was classic!
