With a title that current and trendy, I don't see why I'm not already Destructoid's newest, most popular editor. So what if I have terrible grammar and spelling. I went to public school like everyone else didn't' I? That was a real question... I went to school right?
Regardless of my education, just look at that title! In all seriousness however, a producer at the company I work at recently gave me a Sega CD. I was elated because it was one of those things that even my mom could see was a piece of shit, thus I never was able to guilt her into getting me one.
First thing I did was pop in a copy of Jurassic Park I got off of E-bay. It didn't work, of course. So I got a back-up copy and set off on my fantastic dinosaur journey!
It's actually pretty fun, you get to learn about dinosaurs and solve puzzles. Occasionally you'll be called upon to shoot a dino with a tranq dart. This part kind of bumps me. The premise of the game assumes that your character KNOWS he's headed to Jurassic Park, POST disaster and death of Samuel L. Jackson's character (hold on to your butts)! So don't you think you would pack a little more heat? Raptors people! EFFING RAPTORS.
All that aside, there are plenty of cool little bits in this game that make it worth while. Like short clips of James Horner telling you facts about different dinos, a neat stereo soundtrack, and a real-time time limit. It's worth picking up if you're a collector or you happened upon it at the swap meet.
Oh.. wait, I've said nothing about Sonic CD. Um, well I played it and it was good, but not god's piss like everyone claims it is.

about me
Hmmm about me. Well I live in San Jose and work as a game artist. Drawing for a living is one of those things that when there is a massive apocolypse and we are choosing who will lead our rag tag band of mercs into the irradated wastes, I won't be considered. But that's okay because I'll survive by selling hand drawn porn. So don't worry about me. I'll be fine.
Also I enjoy video games, but you already knew that because I'm here.

I never got past the second stage on that game. Part because I suck, and part because it stopped working.
well said Rorschach.
It's my least favorite Sonic, actually.
... next to Sonic the Hedgehog '06, of course.
My dad bought Sonic CD thinking it would run on my Saturn, so I never played it even though I own it sealed to this day.
