Took a trip to memory lane and decided to spend my afternoon playing Sonic & Knuckles and Sonic 3. Got all 7 emeralds by Marble Garden, Act 2, and only screwed up in 2 special stages, currently finished the Sonic 3 portion with 46 lives (at least 54 collected) and I lost track of how many continues I collected. I would assume at least 18 (kudos to the slot machine checkpoint stage and perfecting all the SSs.

In a sense, I kinda wish I was livestreaming it, but the lag probably would've screwed me up a bit. I'm taking a bit of a break catching up before I take on the S&K portion and work on getting the Super Chaos Emeralds, and getting Hyper Sonic.

I forgot how good the original 2D sonic games were, and I didn't realize how much I rock at them. No savestates necessary (unless I want to keep my in-game saves). That aside, I've been going almost non-stop, excluding this intermission I'm taking.

I might look around for other games I might play. Subterrania is always a fun little game. I wonder if anyone has tried modding games like that yet? I mean, remembering how it plays, and how fun it gets (not to forget how many bullets tend to fly and whatnot (especially from the player)), that game has potential for a Touhou mod, provided somebody has the time to convert the graphics and tweak the settings a tad at least. That last part was more a lingering thought that would be pretty fun to try out.

EDIT:
Previous Stats: (S&K + S3)
Score: 576,420 (50k per life = 11 lives from score alone)
Zone 7 "Mushroom Hill", Act 1
46 Lives (12 lost, making it 58 (minus the starting 3 = 55 lives collected))
10 Continues (according to the saves screen)
7 Standard Chaos Emeralds
And in a few steps I'll lose the Super Sonic ability to go on my quest for Hyper Sonic.
No Savestates (except savegame preservation, and that scorecard above, purposes), No reloading Zone 7 post-completion to get all SCEs, No Continues, no rewinds, no hacks or game genies. Basically a vanilla playthrough.

Back to game. Won't be available for awhile.

EDIT EDIT:
Just making an update since I just got all 7 Super Chaos Emeralds already. That was far sooner than I expected. Damn I'm good.

Current Stats: (S&K + S3)
Score: 859,420 (50k per life = 17 lives from score alone)
Zone 8 "Flying Battery", Act 1
60 Lives
16 Continues
7 Super Chaos Emeralds (If I was paying enough attention, I could've gotten them all in Zone 7 alone, and Hyper while there.)
Now able to become Hyper Sonic.
No Savestates (except savegame preservation, and that scorecard above, purposes), No reloading Zone 7 post-completion to get all SCEs, No Continues, no rewinds, no hacks or game genies. Basically a vanilla playthrough.

Added Note: Thanks to a good bad bug, I fell through some spikes and landed into another Special Stage Ring while running through the Flying Battery Zone. It would've been my last one, but I botched it, but found another like it a minute later. I think the game lagged for half a moment which threw me off a tad. Oh well, like that'll screw up a veteran like me?

YAY! Hyper Sonic! The rest of the game will be a breeze, and I also unlocked the good ending, and I'm only 2 zones into the other half of the game (and just before facing the Act 1 mini-boss). If I can breach 1 million points, that'll rock.

I just found the answer to life. Also hyper sonic. We actually paused the game the first time we were able to do this. It was good. Also the doomsday music was kickass. See?

I have to make that a tiny picture to whip out at a moments notice.



Yessssss

That's El Goonish Shive right?  Oh god I spelled it right the first time and I haven't even read a strip yet.

[dragnar]

and I haven't even read a strip yet.

This is a problem. Go fix it.

One warning though: it starts off a bit boring for the first few weeks, and the art improves a LOT over the course of the comic.

[ToonyMan]

I know, for another time though

Spoiler: In the rightnowtime hehehe (click to show/hide)

Yeah, Google Image Search puts me and Duke together.

[Duke 2.0]

 Even Google knows we are bros.

 Eh, genderbending to the point of spelling their comic name in cursive in how much they've bent genders. Not a thing for everybody. If you are okay with it then most of it is quality stuff, but not my cup of tea.

 The bus route home took two and a half hours. Usually when getting to school it takes me an hour and a half. This may have been the seeing three buses of the route I was supposed to take going the opposite direction within ten minutes during my 45 minute wait, so there was some scheduling error where they were all bunched up and took a while to get to the stop. And when a bus finally came there were a million people there. I wasn't too worried as I knew everybody bunches up at the sign and the bus always stops like ten feet before the sign, right in front of where I was waiting in the cold rain.
 The driver skidded to a halt some 20 feet after the sign, placing the entire mob between me and the bus. Well fuck I'm gonna have to wait another 45 minutes in the cold rain for a bu-
 And another one shows up right then completely empty. I got the best seats on the bus and a quick ride to the next stop. Hell yes.

Well yes, Tedd is certifiably insane... but it's still got a pretty good plot, especially for a webcomic.

I am happy because I somehow got my sig to fit.

I watched the 3D video of the final level as well. That was pretty awesome, and summed up the beatdown quite well.

Amazing how much more compelling as a character sonic is when he is completely silent.

[Josephus]

I never could stand sonic, especially due to the fact that his fandom in the (already rather poor) sprite-comic world is mostly 9-16 and TREMENDOUSLY uncreative. I swear to god.

[ToonyMan]

Oh man, I've been listening to so many Sonic songs.  That Project Chaos album man, album man.

Going from 31.12 to 31.16 seems to have stopped my 14 year old fort from crashing every couple hours!

Also, this can only end badly.
"Hi mommy! Let me give you a hug!"
*Mommy has been dealt a crushing blow by kiddy-death-mobile in the lower body! The tissue has been torn open! Mommy's guts have been exposed!*
