Is there no PSN trophy listing quality control? Here's how my Resident Evil marathon looks on paper with it, how much does this bug you?

I mistook this for Dungeon Travelers II, and I was very, very confused :lol:

I've been playing Ristar for the past hour+. I can't believe I never played this game. It's... good!

Yeah, Sega dropped the ball in not turning that into a bigger series. But same with 50 of their other IP's I guess.

I really knew nothing about it. Fired it up and immediately said "OH! So this is a Team Sonic game, huh?" haha. But that's a good thing. This feels like classic 16-bit Sega to me. Very solid. A nice discovery after finally playing and loving Nights recently as well.

I'm actually kinda surprised you like it, noise. To me it's way too slippery with big boring stage designs. Reminds me of Sonic 3 and Sonic & Knuckles - impressive in style but not fun at all from a gameplay standpoint.

I played the game recently on a compilation (to unlock Space Fury) and hated every second. And I'm generally easy to please when it comes to platformers.

Diff'rent strokes.

Just to confirm that I'm not an indiscriminate Sega basher.... I am playing Monster World IV right now and loving it.

The fact that both of you consider S3&K to be meh is a travesty.
