Sonic 2 has the worst special stages and the quality of levels starts to fall off around Casino Night Zone and careens into a flaming freefall around Oil Ocean Zone.

Oil Ocean and Metropolis are really good though? Wing Fortress is whatever but it's only one act anyway.

it plays nothing like a doom game (except for being an fps). it's a bunch of arena battles where the enemies drop pick ups.

Yeah, it really needed some awful Sandy Peterson maps to make it super pro good.

This is interesting and makes me wonder if the split between 16 bit Sonic speeds is why some people (I assume maybe Europeans?) sometimes try to downplay how essential the sense of speed is vs precision platforming, while some (like me) still value the essential uncontrollable sense of speed.
Thoughts?

I dunno if the video goes into it, but only Sonic 1 had that issue. 2 onwards had proper 50Hz modes. So I guess if those people only played Sonic 1 or had the brightest memories of that speed it's possible, but I dunno.

In that case my brain is busted as gently caress because I've never really noticed despite playing it a bunch on SMD and re-releases.

It's incredibly easy to do to a rom, though.

gently caress, they already had the locked-on rom files from past collections like the gamecube/ps2/xbox one. Any emulator could accept those rom files: once they're combined, S3K appears to be a single standard game, no extra work on the emulation side.

Hell you can do it yourself with the old DOS COPY command that just appends the start of one file to the end of another.

When you say "supported through steam" does that mean it'll work for all steam games, or that steam will act as a driver and allow it to work with any program on your computer?

A lot of games outright support it, but also you can apply profiles to it like the Steam Controller now.

Speaking of, I haven't seen it myself but apparently someone got a early copy of the collectors edition and streamed the game earlier today? Or most of it? I'm not sure.

Officially in spoiler times (if the previous link wasn't enough to warn you)

He did, but he was a /pol/ reject who kept throwing slurs around while being amazingly poo poo at the game, so you didn't miss much.
