best sonic the hedgehog game
« on: October 26, 2013, 04:08:44 am »
What do you guys think is the best sonic the hedgehog game?
i personally think sonic adventure 2 (the remake for the GCN, i never played the original dreamcast version) is the best, but sonic generations (PS3) is coming close.

I sadly didn't get as much into Sonic as I got into Mario, but I know that among the ones I tried, my favorites are the original ones. I will not vote just for one classic, since I liked them all for the time I played them, but I'll say that I only liked Sonic 3D blast slightly less due to controls (maybe it's my gamepad wearing out, because I had troubles running diagonally in Landstalker too). I also liked Sonic Adventure series quite a lot, but I didn't like Sonic Hedgehog 360 nor the GBA port of Sonic 1 Genesis because they were glitchy as hell, and one of the Wii Sonic game (I think the Secret Rings) difficulty was so batshit insane that neither me nor my bro could ever last more than 30 seconds in the first stage due to constantly falling off the track.

Btw in your survey you forgot to include Sonic 3D Blast, Sonic Riders and Sonic Secret Rings.

I didn't played all of them, but I agree the original ones on the Sega Genesis/MegaDrive were the best. Sonic 3D Blast was also good, but the controls were weird. (Yeah, it's not just you, DJ.) Sonic CD is nearly perfection, but the Past/Future gameplay element kinda confused me, so I went without and got a bad ending (it's one of the rare games I got an ending at all). And it's with the Dreamcast where everything went downhill. Sonic Adventure DX (the Xbox Live version) is not exactly the best 3D open world game I've ever played, but at least they tried. Sonic Riders can get pretty entertaining if you like racing and/or skateboard games. As of Sonic Generations, I think it's one of the best games the Sonic Team made in their recentish, 3D history as they came up with a pretty original concept (two Sonics, the newer one and the original one with the ability to switch between both of them and revisit the levels from the older games). And I didn't really tried the others much, but Sonic Colors was kinda meh.

So yeah this is a short review of all the Sonic games I own, loaned and/or emulated.

I think I'd pretty much have to agree with DJ. I like and have only really played the old (Genesis) titles. The Game gear/ Master Sytem titles (at least the first two) were quite good as well. :) From what I've heard, general consensus among fans is that most of the 3d ones aren't that good unfortunately. :/ I did play an rpg on the DS that seemed pretty neat though. There was also a 3ds title I bought, but it was pretty disappointing. I haven't even finished it. :/

I've spent so much time on Sonic DX and Shadow the Hedgehog... such good games (especially compared to secret rings/black knight).

I only played the first two games on the Megadrive. I really like the fast paced levels, but the casino and stuff are a bit meh and confusing.
If you like my work: why not give me an internet?

@Juju do you use the 6 button gamepad btw? I have a 3 button one somewhere that is the original so I plan to try it first before doing any judgement, but in my case, when I play Landstalker and Sonic 3D Blast, I often go in the wrong direction when pressing arrows. >.<

Btw was Sonic Black Knight an RPG?

i've included just the main sonic games (and 3d blast).
SatSR and SatBK are spin off games (altough generations considers them canon...)
so they're not included.
but yeah sonic 3d blast had pretty wonky platforming...

This, along with E.T for the Atari, is exactly what Legand of Zelda: Sord of Atari was inspired from.

Why did I ever follow this link...I'll never be the same again :P

Anyways, the only Sonic games I've played were the GBA and DS ones. Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood is not one of my favorites. I'd say stay away from it and look for a "normal" sonic game, unless it looks really nice to you.
