It's a time for celebration! Our very own Nick Puleo is turning [REDACTED], so he'll be out on the town all weekend. While the rest of the Co-Opticrew can't be there to celebrate with him, we'll be observing this sacred weekend in our own way, with VIDEO GAMES. Besides, with Nick out doing non-gaming things for a full forty-eight hours, someone's got to pick up the slack.

Ah, it's that special time of the year. A time when significant others all around the world scramble to buy cards and chocolates, then pretend like they didn't just write a love note in the driveway. The Co-Opticrew hasn't divulged any especially romantic plans this weekend, but there will be plenty of gaming, as usual. With any luck, it'll be punctuated with a nice dinner and some solid cuddling.
These days, classic games are constantly being remastered and reproduced for players to enjoy on the current generation of consoles. In spite of the occasionally overwhelming flow of these types of titles, it's always nice to see hallmarks of the gaming industry like Sonic the Hedgehog 2 come back to the fore.
