yeah there are 3 cartoons,

Adventures of sonic the hedgehog: this had scratch and grounder as is considered horrible (no real focus to it really)
Sonic the hedgehog: Sat.a.m which is the anime one you referred to, its brilliant and i still watch it to this day.
Sonic Underground featured the the character you said was Amy, which is in fact another character called Sonia. this one is censored.

ah yeah, forgot the OVA that is also anime styled and is actually quite a good little film. Sonic X is one i never got into (too modern sonic for me) and night of the werehog was actually ok, if you dont see it as sonic related.

going back to the topic however...

Could always get this, but it is pricey

However, being an official release, it might be worth it

Brought these from Shopto and Play, all for PC.

Fallout 3: GOTY , only got a couple of hours in on the 360 version, so it will be no bother starting it over on the PC, finding it a lot friendlier using a mouse.
Total War Shogun 3: Was going for £3 on Play.com, currently involved with Medieval 2: TW.....will get round to this eventually.
Red Orchestra: Again, was only going for a few quid, had a quick play and a little unimpressed, not much action online and that enemy AI sucks!!

I've always noticed how absurdly short MD pad cables are. They're probably half the length of those on the SNES.

A good job, too - as it meant Sega could sell you an extra 'extension cable' for another fiver! Huzzah!
