On the other hand Classic Planet Wisp might be the best track in the game, alongside Modern Chemical Plant. The best vocal song in Sonic history, however, is Work It Out.

Infinite's theme is great and I like it totally without irony. it sounds like it'd be more at home in Dead Rising but whatever I'm game

Schwarzwald posted:So emerald number five in mania is kind of bullshit, huh? 5 and 6 are much harder than 7. 7 is actually pretty fun. I'm mostly annoyed because my inability to find any more giant rings after I finally got #6 was the only thing preventing me from perfecting my Knuckles run from a few days ago. I'm waiting for the Switch to get the 1.03 patch before i do my Tails playthrough.

It's me, I'm the one who likes Knight of the Wind.  Schwarzwald posted:So emerald number five in mania is kind of bullshit, huh? It felt like they made it harder than the last two since you'd be on midgame by that point, and they intend for you to get the last two during the endgame so they made it easier. Here's how I cleared it: - At Mach 1, you'd want to stick as close to the UFO since it could very easily create too big a lead for you to catch up. Just follow it closely while getting any rings you can. - Ignore the side paths, since you can get enough blue spheres from the main course. The ramps are traps that shave off too much speed, so only use it when Mach 3 to get some rings. - Near the end of the course, there's a ring sphere you can bounce off to get to another ring sphere and a mach up sphere. If you've been following the UFO closely while at Mach 1, get this and you should be able to catch the UFO by the next lap.

Half of Sonic Adventure's soundtrack is recycled from Sonic 3D Blast, and the other has euphemisms about Amy shaving her privates.

I liked the credits music for Secret Rings because it was this bizarrely out-of-place soul ballad with piano accompaniment that, most importantly, did not contain the lyrics MAKE BELIEVE'S REBORN: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKywKqzp5jM I still find it hard to believe this song was in a Sonic game.

I unironically love Rouge actually. She played Eggman and Shadow like fiddles (while not even bothering to use an alias) in SA2 and took no bullshit from anyone in Heroes. I forget what she was doing in Shadow the Hedgehog but she's still pretty awesome. Sadly it seems like she's been booted to tertiary character based on her 1 second appearance in the background in the Forces story trailer.

You know, Sonic 06's story really wasn't that bad. Like all you really had to do was take out all the humans and make them also little woodland critters, and it would have been weird camp-y fun. I actually liked a lot of the stages in 06. Hell the final boss was pretty cool too. Not to mention you get to ride around in all of Shadows cool cars and poo poo, and Silver's game-play was innovative if a little shoddy. So if Forces is a cleaned up Sonic 06, I'd be pretty happy with it.

Sonic 06 isn't a fundamentally terrible game. It has a lot of good ideas, even. The problem is that they released it unfinished and in a borderline unplayable state.

The snowbording flat didn't work and was as awkward to control as the rest of it. The game is poo poo. And no the plot wouldn't have been campy fun if they were all woodland critters, it just would have been loving stupid and melodramatic. Unleashed had the perfect mix of dramatic and light hearted, it felt like an adventure and a pixar film.

LORD OF BOOTY posted:Sonic 06 isn't a fundamentally terrible game. It has a lot of good ideas, even. The problem is that they released it unfinished and in a borderline unplayable state. No goddamnit no. Sonic 06 is a fundametally flawed game that only expanded on every terrible aspect of the Adventure games, without having any ideas good enough to outweigh that. Noone needs huge sprawling hubworlds with gently caress-all to do in them and they're completely superfluous to having a coherent world, as Colors (or Shadow or even Heroes to an extent) demonstrated. The Mach Speed sections were poo poo and I don't think that polished controls could save those. Combat sections do not belong in normal levels, bouncing of enemies should be the way to progress. Bosses should not have extended periods where the player can only wank around, with no visible danger or opportunity for attack. Sonic 06 is a bad game at heart and it's only saving grace was that it does write itself out of existance in the real ending.
