I noticed this was used in an article in The Escapist:

Is there any more concept art out there? I'm getting hungry for some new MI goodness! :D

    I have to agree that insult-swordfighting has been done to death, and a brief reference is completely sufficient.

    But while we're at it, I also think that jumping in Mario games has also been done to death. Maybe in the next game they should only reference jumping? Like, after walking through 80% of the game, you come to a pit and think "Oh! Here's one of those things I used to jump over!", but then you just walk around it so you don't have to jump.

    Old school Mario fans will get the reference, while new Mario fans won't feel alienated.

    I really enjoy TTG's games, but with all due respect, whenever anyone says something's been "done to death" what they're really saying is "I don't have the time/desire/creativity to figure out how to make this interesting and original again".

    This is the case with Sonic, too. Far too overdone was the running very fast to whiz through every level, go through a loop-the-loop and hit Robotnik in spinning-spiky-ball mode when and where he's most vulnerable.

    In the next Sonic adventure, perhaps Sonic could say (upon seeing a loop, a gorge and Robotnik goading him in the distance) "Say, Tails, do you remember when we'd just loop-the-loop then go spinning into Eggman and defeat him with bruteforce alone? That's SO two decades ago! There must be a bridge somewhere. Then you and Knuckles will have to help me."

    God, I miss 2D Sonic side-scrollers. Sonic 3 & Knuckles was the best.
