Sonic CD for Android. I already own and have completed the original Sega CD/Sega Mega CD version but I was curious to learn about this new port which if I am correct, is essentially exactly the same on all it's platforms it has been released on (XBLA, PSN, iOS, Android). After paying for the game on Google Play, I was met with confusion, as the file was only 88KB big.

After opening the game, it said that it needed to download extra files to run, well, why in the hell didn't it just download them all in the first place? Getting the files was a nightmare, first, it took forever to download, now my phone is set to lock itself after 1 minute if inactivity, problem is, when the phone locked, it would need to start the ridiculously long download again! So I set the lock time to the maximum settings which is 10 minutes and just kept pressing buttons on my phone to stop it locking!

So finally, I got the files, and this port is actually way better than the original Sega CD release, the graphics look gorgeous and now the special stages have no frame rate issues like it did originally. There are also some great extras like changing the music between the Japanese/Europe and US versions (in my opinion the Japanese/Europe is the best). Tails is even an unlockable character which was a feature not eve present in the original, controls feel great to and are very simple.

Overall, a port that's better than the original release in many ways, oh, and of course, it is THE best Sonic game ever made.
