We’re back with New Episodes! First up is the Blue blur himself, Sonic the Hedgehog! With the recent re-release of some of Sonic’s original games in the form of the Sonic Origins, we here at KOSplays Classic Games thought it would be fun to look back at the distant past; the old days known as 1991.

1991 saw some pretty big releases in entertainment, such as Beauty and The Beast, The first season of The Fresh Prince of Bel-air rapping up, and a little movie called Terminator 2… So yeah, people were not lacking in entertainment regarding television and films. Gaming was no slouch either with releases such as Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past, Streets of Rage, and a little fighting game called Street Fighter 2!

With this stiff competition, Sega geared up and placed their beats on the Lil blue hedgehog with attitude.

‘What is the world, then?’

classicgames on

‘An illusion, One we can either submit to – as most do – or transcend.’

“It’s actually really interesting to me. It’s sort of based on the research that’s sort of happening now, about the fact that your genes might be able to hold memory. And you could argue semantics and say it’s instinct, but how does a baby bird know to eat a worm, as opposed to a cockroach, if its parents don’t show it? And it’s about this science company trying to, Matrix-style, go into people’s brains and find out an ancestor who used to be an assassin and sort of locating who that person is.” -Kristen Bell, (IGN, 2006)

Next time on KOS-plays classic games we take a look at a game that started a lie that wearing a hoodie makes you less suspicious.

The beginning of the franchise that made you look at historical buildings on Facebook and comment “I climbed that!” and got you suspended in middle school. The leap of faith that was Assassin’s Creed (2007). We will dive into more than sales and what inspired the creators. No, this time around we will Instead look at a bigger question that the game asks, ” what is a memory?”

“War… has changed. It’s no longer about nations, ideologies, or ethnicity. It’s an endless series of proxy battles fought by mercenaries and machines. War, and its consumption of life, has become a well-oiled machine. War has changed.” – Solid Snake, Metal Gear Solid 4.

Over on the other team you had Resident Evil launch its first game on the old Playstation. But, we aren’t looking at any of those just yet. Because we are sticking with fighting games and covering the game were developer Capcom said “lol, what if Ryu punched Wolverine.” The game that helped launch the very idea of the Crossover fighting game genre.

Welcome to my blog, KOS-Plays Classic Games! Here we like to take a break from your botched console pre-orders and take a look back at some of our favorite classic games! It’s like time travel! …on a budget. My “Co-host” Anne and I break down each game, talk about the general reception at the time of release, and in some cases may even beat one!

Our first game will take us back to the great year of 1993. Where the Jurassic Park was actually good and we all Raged Against the Machine because Skynet was bound to happen in real life soon. A game that was the equivalent of mixing your toys together and letting them fight. We start with Mortal Kombat 2!
