238 | Sonic Adventure DX, aka nostalgia hours

The other week, I started a replay of the first Sonic Adventure (the Steam version). Today, I beat it. I played the GameCube version a lot as a kid—I think the only games that had a bigger emotional impact on me back then were Sonic Adventure 2 and Star Ocean: The Second Story—but I never actually beat it back then (though I did watch my big brother beat it). And, unlike with SA2, I’d never revisited it as an adult, which means this was my first time actually beating the game. And, oh do I have feelings.
