This Day in Gaming 🎂
In retro news, I’m lighting 22 candles for Sonic Adventure DX, the high-speed 3D platformer that burst onto the GameCube in 2003. Back then, the excitement was real. This wasn’t just a basic port of the Dreamcast hit. It came with a stack of extra missions, a playable Metal Sonic skin (!!!), and a gallery of visual upgrades that brought a glossier look to familiar levels.
Sure, the camera had a mind of its own, and Big the Cat's fishing stages were divisive at best, but it still felt fresh. DX kept Sonic relevant during a weird transitional time for Sega, and for fans like me, it scratched a nostalgic itch at just the right moment.

Purchase Cheap for PC
On PC, Dead Space is an absolute steal at under twenty bucks. When remaking the game, EA Motive used NASA audio archives to help shape the vacuum soundscape—those eerie silences are scientifically accurate. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor also features a hefty 80 percent discount. Look closely at BD-1’s animations: they were inspired by the twitchy, curious movements of meerkats observed during on-site visits to wildlife sanctuaries.
