Sonic thread?

sonic cd is ok but the game is constantly holding my hand, if I fail a ramp and go back down, a spring is right behind me to propel me foward out of the ramp ezpz
I hate this

...

What is everyone's favourite 'casino/bumpers' style zone?

Carnival Night Zone best music, best balloons, best badniks, best barrel.

Studiopolis shaping up to look pretty nice, too. Music is a big factor.

I'm gonna get shit on here but I have to be honest. I don't like the Studipolis music that much. It sounds like it doesn't know where it's going or something. The Genesis games still have the best soundtracks to me.

YO GIMMIE SOMETHING TO DANCE TO

Best music coming through.

Casino Night Zone will always be my favourite.

This is still my favorite Sonic 1 track

better version coming through

Best theme imo

Tee Lopes is pretty good, but I honestly think that Falk would have been the better Sonic fan musician to hire for an official project. His compositions feel a lot more robust and realized to me.

Not bad, but I like Generations' version of it better.

Step it up.

Postan' Sanic

I fucking LOVE sonic games

>tfw the "Sonic has never been good" meme exists

Fuck the memes Jack, I unironically enjoy 90% of the sanic library

Even Sonic Labyrinth and Sonic Blast? (not to be confused with 3D Blast)

Alright

I actually like this track better than Mystic Cave Zone's

Mystic Cave Zone still has an excellent track though

...

Now that's some good shit.

Me too.

This thread is too young to die

There's a chance of that meme dying thanks to IGN

...

Heroes has a fucking great soundtrack, awesome mix of various rock/industrial and house subgenres.

I really like Heroes despite it being one of the more mediocre games in the series.

Shameful.

Please leave

Oh boy, has this turned into a Sonic music thread?

Comfy.

Also, Act 2 is great for the Lava Reef Act 1 mixed in.

THEN SHOW ME YOUR DANCE FACE, BOY

What is a better way of playing Sonic, using the thumbstick or the d-pad of my Xbone controller for pc emulation or using a touchscreen for my phone emulator? I'm not going to shell out the cash for a pc-compatible genesis controller.

MAKE YOUR SELECTION NOW

Fuck, misread. D-pad for 2D all the time. If you were going to get a USB controller, get a Saturn.

Grab a DS3 and use that instead.

I wish they remade this stage for generations. It's the best looking water zone imo

D pad over analogue every day. The controls on the touch screen android feel bad, to be honest, even though the games have been improved.

The graphics are worse, and the options are worse, but I prefer playing sonic on my 3ds as part of the mega collection, just because it has a good d pad.

...

They're the same music my dude

Best Sonic song coming trough.

The android port has native gamepad support. If you have an OTG cable you can hook up any HID compliant controller and it'll work.

Gangway, faggots. Gotta train to catch.

What's this? Why is SEGA making a new sonic game on gameboy color?

Epic post.

For shame.

Modern Sonic has some good music too.

agreed

Even the worst segments of the game had good music.

Well thanks. Not sure my 360 d pad will be great, but that is helpful. I'll go and get a cable.

How about favourite invincibility them? Shadow obviously the worst by far, but I personally like sonic and knuckles, with sonic 1 coming in a close second.

TOOT TOOT SONIC WARRIOR

COME ON, STEP IT UP

...

best sonic cd opening in superior format here

Get an iPega gamepad for the phone. You will not regret it.

It's not bad at all, but the JP version is better.

Naganuma is fucking great, wish SEGA would bring him back in to make some new compositions for a game.

...

I fucking love Rooftop Run

Step aside nigger lovers.

...

Enjoy anons

Though the embed is some modern remix, the original was sweet as fuck

Fishing in SA was pretty stupid but the character himself was pretty fun, and doesn't interfere too badly with the established tone of the series in general. I wouldn't mind seeing him in cutscenes or cameoing in stages like in SA2 again.

That sentiment essentially applies to pretty much every non-classic character, I guess, since SEGA's pretty adamant on cutting down the supporting cast outside of promotional art and spinoffs like M&S and the mobile games.

I remember there being a project a while back where they did an album of Sonic 3 & Knuckles remixes.
Some of them were pretty decent.

...

Well someone had to.

Just can't beat flying battery. Still mad they put fucking sky sanctuary in generations and not flying battery.

Daily reminder that Toxic Caves is the best Sonic song ever made and Toot Toot Sonic Warrior is hot garbage championed by turbo-weebs.

The melody is good but the song is inferior. The rest of te JP soundtrack is better thought.

Postan the superior version that came as a bonus with CD's US soundtrack

Doing a play through of sonic 2 at the moment on DS and am stuck in metropolis zone trying to get the last emerald, failing, and reloading a million times.

Why did I choose sonic and tails? How the fuck did I do this as a kid with no saves?

Oh god, how true is that…

That one second lag that Tails does and always hits the bombs is true hell.
Don't even bother doing all emeralds run with Sonic and Tails.

Sucks for you niggers, Chaotix essentially had the best elements of Sonic 2 and 3 special stages, as they were going through tubes (but thankfully with no second character behind you that would fuck things up) while collecting blue sphere. It was surprisingly fun early 3D platforming.

best sonic 3 song

He picks up the rings that you would've otherwise missed; even if he drops them, they're still rings that you wouldn't have gotten otherwise.

Tails a good.

This question to me is like asking to find the best turd in the litter box. Casino levels in sonic games always have god tier music and visuals, but are always the most frustrating. Especially when they force you to use one of those motherfucking bumpers to get yourself to the top route of the stage. Trying to aim a jump or do anything with any version of those fucking bumpers makes me want to poor hot sauce in my eyes.

SONIC DREAMS COLLECTION 2 WHEN?

...

is it bad that i know that song because of a porn game?

I didn't remember Sonic music was this bad/mediocre. No wonder people only remember the 1st stage music.

Welp looks like we got roasted boys time to pack it up and move to a new thread.

...

Which game would that be?

I'll be honest, i had sonic 3 for the LONGEST time and this will always be the best final boss theme I can recall hearing.

Where's 3D Blast?

The problem is that, whenever you jump or get hit, he switches places with you. Then he's the one in front, grabbing all the rings.

REMEMBER ME Holla Forums?!
WHEN I KILLED YOUR FRANCHISE!
I WAS REALLY EDGY!
JUST LIKE THIS!
;_;

...

I want to have high hopes, but at this point, I have a hard time believing Sonic can be a good franchise again.

Are you forgetting Unleashed, Colors, and Generations, or are you one of those idiots who go "hurr, boost2win"?

...

No lie, Shadow's music is pretty fucking ballin'.

I doubt that Sonic will ever be as bad as it was in the mid-2000s again. The outcry was too big from critics and fans alike, and SEGA's been shaken up quite a bit. Notice how they've made more of an effort to keep an upbeat, cartoony tone in the newer games, while sticking to a core set of mechanics and not deviating from them too often like in Adventure and its derivatives. Lost World was admittedly pretty mediocre but that's mostly because Sonic Team was trying to experiment with a new style of gameplay to keep the Unleashed mechanics from getting stale, which can be forgiven considering the game is mostly functional.

Sonic Boom is an outlier, since it was a spin-off made to promote the cartoon that was outsourced to a no-name dev. It hurt the brand name, but SEGA's trying their best to damage control with stuff like the Comic-Con event (even though it ended up being another laughing stock, albeit one that generated a lot of hype with the new game announcements).
