RetroGamer is a site that lets you play certain old games online after simply downloading a mywebsearch toolbar and a well-updated Java.
The playable games include Sonic 1, Sonic 2, Sonic 3, Sonic 3D and Sonic Spinball, all of them with really nice framerate and quality. By the way, would it be legit to submit stats for those games obtained in RetroGamer?

I'm going to say no. Odds are that it doesn't truly recreate gameplay for any of them entirely (or at least to the standard emulators get it to). That and knowing it's a Java engine, just makes me laugh a hell of a lot more.

I used to care like that too, but then Minecraft.
