I think I mostly agree, except I'd have to throw the Adventures in Middling, maybe bumping up Rush and Rush Adventure to Compensate. I also end up playing Spinball almost yearly, but I still take forever to beat it every time. E: Actually, I'd also put Lost World in middling, personally. I liked it quite a bit, but it could have been way better.

I liked Super  It's pretty divisive from what I've seen though so I get that it's not everyone's thing.

Sonic Heroes is a better game Lost World. The idea was good on paper but the team just isn't skilled enough to deliver on that kind of endeavour. Makes you appreciate more how seamlessly excellent the SMGs are imo!

beep by grandpa posted:Also I was asking about just your fav special stages! Most of those didn't make a mark on me. Amazing tier: S3&K Good: Generations (admittedly barely counts because the "special stages" were just bosses) Middling: Sonic CD (It would be up one or even two tiers if the depth perception and collision detection wasn't so wonky) Sonic 1-derived stages Sonic 2-derived stages, and Sonic 2 with sonic/tails alone (Some may be better or worse, for instance, Sonic Heroes is much better) Bad: Sonic 2 with tails following, making it require more rings is inexcusable Not reviewed: Knuckles Chaotix -- I haven't played it in a long time, given a video, they look like they have promise, but the choppiness and clipping issues really make them problematic Sonic Lost World 3DS -- haven't played it Any form of special stage not mentioned Linear Zoetrope fucked around with this message at 21:27 on Jul 26, 2016 |

Sonic Lost World 3DSs special stages use full gyro meaning that you have to stand up and spin around or use a swivel chair to play them.

I think it's just broken period. I'm missing the time attack achievement and the one for beating time eater without getting hit.

Ventana posted:Every Sonic CD level is way too huge and winding and confusing to go through for it's own good, and what's worse is that most of them are just frustrating to go through within the confines of their own normal paths. Quartz Quandrant, Wacky Workbench (especially this one), Collision Chaos, these levels are all much more of a pain than going through any normal path of an Advance 3 level. playing through a cd level holding on to 50 rings: okay exploring a cd level to find the robot maker: good exploring a cd level to find the robot maker, going to the good future to listen to the chill af music, and holding on to 50 rings: godlike

I'm not horribly familiar with exactly which ones stay around, but I've definitely seen enemies in good futures, they're just much more rare.

Let's rank the poo poo that matters: The Game Gear Sonic games! Great Tier: Sonic The Hedgehog 1 - Bridge Zone and Jungle Zone for life. Good Tier: Sonic Chaos - Fun, but short and easy. Tails Adventure - Surprisingly fun metroidvania Awful Tier: Sonic Blast - ugly sprites, bad stages Nack Tier: Sonic Triple Trouble - Nack's in it. gently caress The Underground Zone Boss Tier: Sonic the Hedgehog 2 - No, seriously. gently caress the Underground Zone Boss. What were they thinking? Tier: Everything else.

The Sonic 8bit games are pretty cool if they're the Master System versions. It's a shame that they don't rerelease those versions more often.

The Antlion probably took me more time to beat than the rest of the game combined. Emulators don't capture how invisible its projectiles were. The invisibility of them also meant the method of beating that boss was completely opaque.

I'm not horribly familiar with exactly which ones stay around, but I've definitely seen enemies in good futures, they're just much more rare. The only things that stick around are bombs and spike traps. All of the badniks disappear in the past as well so there's almost no reason to go to the present unless you know a faster path that can't be taken in the past like this metallic madness 2 route: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AI0v49VaEeA&t=1581s It's kind of weird that the present becomes the most dangerous place once you destroy the robot teleporters and both the past and future are clean.
