They fixed the runner not having audio by making it loud enough to be heard no matter what.

I looked up what a Chao is and:

quote:

Their role in the games are to be raised by the player in mini-games, similar to many virtual pets. Chao are somewhat complex: they respond to stimuli, have moods, require food and can be loving or fearful.

Eh, Tails has played second fiddle so many times it's not that odd for him to be holding blue balls

I wasn't expecting to enjoy Sonic Advance 3 as much as I have so far, getting all the Chao is just loving garbage

They're having too much fun with it to not love the run tho. Also since this is best ending we get to see the really funny final boss mechanics

Oh yeah, in Sonic Adventure 1, you can make a dark chao by abusing the poo poo out of it and throwing it at walls.

nah there are definitely good gba stuff, this just sounds worse because it's a song made for a different soundfont + if you're familiar with the original your brain is going 'what no that's not how that's supposed to sound'

in fairness this soundtrack was literally thrown together in like, a week before the game went to print when it turned out they couldn't use the soundtrack they'd already made because of legal issues
