As sad as this sounds, Alex Kidd (Alex Kidd In Miracle World) or Sonic The Hedgehog and Tails. I had a Sega Master System II as a kid in the early 90s and fucking loved it, but then the Megadrive came out and ruined everything

Haha.
Yeah I've never been good at games, even back then I was crap at them, but now you have the PS2/PS3 and the bloody Xbox with their awkward controllers, press X twice and circle once to jump and all that bollocks. I want another Master System II, I did buy one a year or so ago but it didn't work

so will have to find another one. That's the only console I've ever been able to get on with.
Oh, but I do like CJ from GTA:San Andreas, my ex and his mate often have tournaments on the PS2 to see who can make the most money...these tournaments usually start at around 4pm and go on till around 2am. See, I'm not completely out of touch!
Speaking of games, is anyone else familiar with the sheer brilliance of a Brazilian metal band called Megadriver who, as the name suggests, make heavy metal versions of the music from the Megadrive games? These guys are truly unbelievable. Check out their rendition of 'Thundercats' if you can...fucking amazing
