Mark Reece from SpawnFirst writes: "The year was 1998. I had just turned fourteen two days earlier and on Christmas morning I dashed downstairs to unwrap what I knew was waiting for me. You see, Id already gone with my mum to go and pick it up a few weeks prior; £45 second hand, with Asterix and the Great Escape, NBA Live 95 and World of Illusion starring Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. For me, the time in between then and Christmas morning had been spent eagerly anticipating the wonders that awaited me. Id played a lot of Genesis before my cousins owned one, as did one of the kids across the street and had fallen in love with it as soon as Id played Sonic the Hedgehog; a videogame character I still have a soft spot for even to this day."
