Playing Sonic CD right now and my opinions are changing on it a bit. Between the soundtrack, no pits (except one), and the general easiness, it's easily the chillest Sonic game.:cool:

Most of the bosses in S3&K are quite a bit harder as Knuckles.

Man I love how Marble Zone looks freaky as hell with these UFOs spinning in the sky. Was this how it was supposed to look in the beta?

I think I'd like CD more if getting to the past wasn't a pain / I wasn't terrible at it. I can never manage to make good futures or get a good ending.

Just catch all the Time Stones and the game tells you're so cool.

Doing an all good futures run is fun and if you play as Tails it's a lot easier. I enjoyed CD most doing a casual "do whatever" runthrough as Sonic and then a more completionist runthrough as Tails, who gets more leeway to backtrack and explore the levels.

Also let me try playing with both US and JP soundtracks. Fun!

They were maybe a little too busy for non-interactive background objects. They look cool but they're also like, big and animated and foreground-y.

Cool as they are I kinda hate it when stage backgrounds are too flashy, I lose track of my character really easily. Like when I play Smash 4 I always lose track of what's going on because of all the bullshit going on in the background on some stages

I'm taking my baby brother on a week-long camping trip for his 20th birthday the day after Mania comes out so of you see me not posting it's not cause I'm dead (unless I get jacked my a bear). I might binge playthrough it Tuesday night though. Maybe. But even then I still gotta do loads of driving that day and pack...being a good, social person is extremely tough sometimes but I know sonic believes in me!

Don't worry, the Marble Zone UFOs are in Sonic Mania... sort of. Part of the lampposts in Studiopolis are based on their sprite.

Hadn't noticed that! I'll take it as a consolation prize, thank you. Sadly that means Marble Zone is pretty much guaranteed not to be in Mania.

(Should have expected that, all levels shown seem to have at least one fast route in order to let players try them in Time Attack mode, and Marble Zone was a slow level)

Well, if you get mania for the switch you can bring it with you like all those bizarre Nintendo commercials suggest!

I can't see why not, since that was in the Sonic CD remaster by the same team.

And when he calls his brother "baby brother" you know who he's talking about, that's right, Tails.
