Sonic CD is a lot like Sonic 1 in that it is much slower and more deliberate than the later games (especially the “sonic rush” games for game boy advance that were great). Sonic 3 & Knuckles is still my favorite(as I like the faster pace but they still have interesting routes that require precision and exploration and that music  ) but sonic 1 and Sonic CD are still great and equally deserving of praise. The people who try to talk about this nerd poo poo “objectively” are huge loving nerds that should probably re-examine why they care so much that someone else likes a different one.

Snow Cone Capone posted:You can hate the music but it bridged the gap between the older Genesis games and the newer 3d ones, which for all their flaws tended to have great music. Again, I didn't say I hated the music, it just didn't fit sonic games of that time. quote:And I don't know what to tell you about the level designs. The game got rave reviews, the fact that there's 4 different and unique versions of EVERY level is pretty cool, and the only time I ever felt the game was too slow was when I couldn't build up the speed to activate a time gate. Sonic games were about running fast and getting through an obstacle course with a few branching paths. Sonic CD isn't that. 1redflag posted:Sonic CD is a lot like Sonic 1 in that it is much slower and more deliberate than the later games.

I appreciate the fact that you're making a legit argument, at least. Funny enough the first time I played Sonic CD was the 2011 re-release, and coming off stuff like the Sonic Rush games, you'd think I would have been particularly sensitive to the lack of speed  It just got the point where there were enough time gates where I had zero speed built up, and I was like "well there's gotta be a route I'm not seeing to get me there" and usually I was right.

Yuji Naka (and most of Sonic Team) wasn't involved with Sonic CD but worked on Sonic 2, in the same way Miyamoto didn't work on the Super Mario Land games on the gameboy and only on the mainline games iirc. (Course this means jack poo poo these days since all the games have been handed over to various different teams over the years.)

Dogmeat posted:From just looking at it, the Genesis version was way better. But yeah the SNES version was a much better game. Same with Jurassic Park. Not that the Genesis versions were bad, the SNES versions were just better games with more to do. Disagree. Generally, SNES was the better version. With regard to Aladdin & Jurassic Park, the SNES got the lesser versions. Aladdin on SNES was an apple collecting game. Genesis version didn't have that goal and was better for it. IIRC, it was a port got both consoles and the Genesis one was better done, even looking (maybe sounding?) better. Flashback was the same kinda deal. Jurassic Park, well, there are 2 or 3 on each console, but all you need to know is that Genesis had an exclusive version called "Rampage Edition" which let you play as a raptor as well as Grant.

how on earth is Sonic CD's someone else's take on the character when the game's director was the person who actually created Sonic the Hedgehog Naka was half of the major pair that designed Sonic. He was the programmer, not the character designer. Ohshima (the character designer) stayed with Sega Japan and didn't move to STI for Sonic 2 with Naka and Yashuhara Ohshima stayed and directed Sonic CD. It's a different take on Sonic, but equally as valid as Sonic 2. this is in an entire different bucket then your SMB/SML comparison, SMB was EAD/R&D4 and SML was R&D1 and were run by completely different staffs and directors. (EAD was Miyamoto and R&D1 was Yokoi)

Sonic CD's main premise is interesting and poorly implemented on the solid platforming engine they used in Sonic 1. Knuckles Chaotix is a bad idea poorly implemented. The only Sonic games worth playing are the Genesis ones, and even then not Spinball or 3d Blast. E: I heard Rush was good. Also the one on the Doom engine is pretty sweet.

Hi Sega rockers and Nintendo fanboy losers. I wanted to take this time/post to tell you more about how Sega kicks Nintendo's rear end at basically everything and give you even more evidence of why Sega is the best! Controllers Some of you jerks complained that you had to press the 'Start' button in Street Fighter II to change from punch mode to kick mode. This was the best way of doing it because A gave you low power, B gave you medium power and C gave you high power. This gave you more control over your attacks and only a brain damaged toddler couldn't press Start between combos to change attack modes. What are you, stupid?? Oh, you are? well that's why they made this 6 button controller - for idiots and nintendo players like you. So now you have no reason to complain because they made a controller with even more buttons! What do you have to say about that??  For arcade go-ers, they made a cool arcade stick which was great for fighting games because you could hone your skills at home then beat all the losers at the arcade. Trust me I would know, I spent countless nights at the London Trocadero and SEGA WORLD fighting idiots like you except I never had to pay because we had a winner-stays-on unwritten rule and anyone who wanted to fight me had to pay their money into the machine, which was stupid because it was basically them just throwing money away lol. anyway the Power Stick looked like this  and dont worry if you were a nintendork, they made a six button version too!!  Multiplayer Another cool thing they made was a multitap so you could play games with your friends and you could beat all their sorry asses at games that supported more than 2 players. Yeah nintendo made one for the NES but it looked like 1981 took a poo poo on it, and the Sega one was way cooler. I mean look at it, its so elegant it just fits in with the kick rear end Sega aesthetic.  Not only that but some games came with a multitap built in!! This meant that Sega saved you money, too, idiot. This also meant you didn't have to beg your mom or dad for a multitap because your game had it built in, which made you look like an appreciative kid. How many Nintendo games had that, huh? I had Micro Machines but no one wanted to play me competitively because they knew i'd kick their rear end every single race  Game Cards Soemthing else you might not have known because you were too busy with your head up marios fat rear end is that Sega had cool technology even before the Megadrive/Genesis. For example the Master System had the option to take either cartridges or game cards. So Sega knew that smaller was better even back then! So you could take a bunch of games with you somewhere just in your pocket and it wouldn't take up loads of space. The card slot also meant that you could store other poo poo inside your console like your Blockbuster card for when it came to renting games, so you could always find it when you were going to go there to try out something new. I personally used to keep my dads Visa card in there until he shouted at me one day because he couldn't find it and then i reminded him that technically it was saving his money because he couldn't spend it and he agreed, so again Sega saves you money over Nintendo  3D capabilities Someone in this cool thread already mentioned the 3D glasses that Sega made too for their 8 bit console the Master System. They were hella cool, too, and styled like all the sunglasses kids would wear in all the latest movies. So you could look cool AND play your games in 3D so it was a win/win when you think about it. This poo poo really worked too, it gave the effect that the Virtual Boy had except it wasn't just red and poo poo, they were in proper colors and you could still use your original console rather than spending loads of money on a new one!! they were totally ahead of their time and did it well, too, unlike craptendo!  now maybe you are beginning to see why Sega does what Nintendon't, but if you dont then don't worry because there are still loads of more cool poo poo they made that I still haven't posted about so watch out!!

Hoobastank4ever97 posted:I'm pretty sure Flashback on the SNES is considered the definitive one. What made the Genesis one better? Nah, technically the 3DO was the best port, it was originally a PC game IIRC. The version differences on it are weird with the cinematics, obviously, but like music and gameplay/handling and everything else is all over the place. I think they outsourced the ports with the exception of the Genesis version, which is why it's preferred. This game's got a ton of comparative videos and whatnot, people must have been really upset about their Jaguars or something.
