Hello sonic thread, I loved adventure 1 and 2 on the dreamcast, but I had not played a sonic game since then. I just finished playing all the GameCube games, so here are my thoughts: Sonic Adventure 1 still holds up, 2 does not, Shadow the Hedgehog is better than I thought it would be and Heroes is much, much worse, although it does have the best crush 40 song. And this is the worst post in this thread: Heran Bago posted:I'm just gonna say it. The "SEGAAA" choir sucks. It's loud and obnoxious. First thing I do after booting up those Sonic games is turn down the volume. Not worth the cartridge space in any of the Genesis titles. The wow factor only existed for people who knew enough about video games to recognize a voice clip is uncommon. The two-note Master System one is less intrusive. Just give me the modern *woosh*"sega." or even the strange eyeball with an off-key note.

Whatever the next game is the enemies better not have health bars. If a non-boss enemy takes more than one hit I'll be real mad, oh boy!

In the stage Red Mountain in Sonic Adventure, sonic jumps down the mouth of a volcano and the stage changes to a fiery pit lined with prison cells full of ghosts, and the music changes to a new song filled with screams Did sonic briefly go to hell? Discuss

Homora Gaykemi posted:So like, I dunno. Don't press yourself to get the true ending by playing all the stories since they're basically difficulty levels of the same stages plus the Chaotix, and you can always just listen to the vocal traxx if you're not enjoying the game You're really going to recommend somebody play sonic heroes and not even get the catharsis of fighting the final boss with the best music in the series?

The best part of the SA1 hub was glitching though the geometry to get into other characters' levels The game doesn't give a gently caress. If Amy gets into emerald coast, let her play until she can't outrun the whale

At the end of sonic adventure 2 they imply that sonic has some sort of connection to project shadow and that's why he can go super and use chaos control and then they never followed up on it and I'm still mad about that twenty years later

Agreed. Get rid of Team Sonic and rename it Chaotix 2Augus posted:station square has really fallen on hard times, no wonder nobody in Sonic talks about it anymore It wasn't in great shape the last time we saw it *radio tuning noises* GOTTA OPEN YOUR-

So does every 3d sonic game end with you going super sonic and fighting a giant weird dragon thing? Because I thought it was cool the first couple of times but it's getting old

Final Rush is fine until you get to Knuckles, and then you're hosed if you didn't get the secret upgrade ten hours earlier Unless you did get the upgrade, then it's just tedious

No evidence, just nerds theorizing in a vacuum. Like how everybody decided that Earthbound could never be released because of the Beatles, until somebody at Nintendo of Japan found out that it was popular in the US and suddenly it was on the virtual console and the snes mini. They had literally only been looking at the original sales figures

The problem with latter-day sonic characters is how busy their designs are. You gotta have two distinguishing features, max, and they should be simple enough for six year olds to draw from memory Look at how complicated blaze the cat's outfit is, can't no six year old remember all that. Purple guy in a cowboy hat? Perfect. Give me more of that guy

It's bullshit that team chaotix and mighty the armadillo made comebacks but we haven't seen fang the sniper since 1996 He has a cowboy hat, a gun and a hoverbike. Shadow wishes he could

NACK was the original name in Japan but they changed his name to Fang at the very last minute because nobody at Sega ever talked to each other and they had no idea that the mega drive division was creating a character named NACKLES at the exact same time

I can definitely see Sonic Boom knuckles saying it as a gag, but Forces has the self awareness of a comatose rock

Until generations I thought for sure that was a glitch. Like, it was just some generic placeholder music they had in there while they were waiting for the crush 40 track to be finished and they forgot that the game calls it twice

Two things: first, obviously this is hilarious Second, this is basically canon. General O.C. Deviantart spent fifty years telling anybody who would listen that Shadow was responsible for the ARK massacre, so Robotnik could easily have grown up believing his older sister/cousin Maria was killed by a lightning fast hedgehog

O-V-I after Maria's favourite cousin, Ovi Kintobor that's right baby every backstory is canon

He was an early prototype ultimate life form. Shadow was the perfect synthesis of the biolizard's ability to warp spacetime and his ability to look like a character from somebody's LiveJournal fanfic

Amy has a history of falling for fake hedgehogs. I bet she broke a few mirrors over the years trying to tackle-hug them

During the final boss fight the programming was already deactivated, the biolizard was using chaos control to bring down the colony manually because he wanted to fulfil the professor's will

They should have kept Amy and Knuckles' designs from Boom going forward
