The blue blur went through some tough times, and a dark air has lingered around the franchise – which is only now starting to lift.
Sonic the Hedgehog has a long and turbulent history in videogames, but which are the best games featuring the blue bur?
Generations over Mania? Please… Generations doesnt have any new ideas in the levels/bosses.
Also a top 7 of Sonic games shouldn’t have any 3D crap and contain at least one of the 8-bit titles.
Sonic CD getting snubbed is weird. Number 1 is definitely interchangable between Sonic 2 and Sonic 3 & Knuckles.
Nothing wrong with putting Generations over Mania. Generations had a lot more to it. Mania was just a bit too short, despite how amazing it was. They're both top-tier Sonic games though.
I don't think mania was to short given 1,2,3, knuckles were between 1 and 3 hours long.
Mania was 5 hours roughly
However i say the originals feel more repayable because they are so short
The 8 bit games were pretty bad overall do you mean the 16 bit ones
Nope. Sonic 1 & 2 on the master system were great. Dont confuse these with the game gear versions either.
Top 7 for me
7 cd
6 mania
5 Frontiers
4 sonic 3
3 sonic 1
2 sonic and knuckles
1 sonic 2
Sometimes I feel like the Sonic Advanced games just didn’t exist with how much it’s always forgotten 😭
Even as a Sonic fan, I didn't really care for those games, and getting the Chaos Emeralds were freakin' horrible. Even with an emulator and save states, I didn't have the desire to try. I also didn't like most of the levels or bosses either. Unfortunately, DiMPs aren't good at making Sonic games.
The writing duo behind Sonic games like Sonic Colors and Sonic Lost World reveal they have little creative control over their game scripts.
They need to start letting people take inspiration from the comics, there's a ton of great stuff to take inspiration from.
My beef is why even hire writers if you're just going to control the whole process. I'd be very upset as a writer if someone did that. A job is a job though.
Performative for optics, I would think.
It's like the US Congress holding a vote to "denounce the evils of socialism." It literally did absolutely nothing about anything and was a complete waste of everyone's time (and tax dollars—which is its own irony, by the way)
Dumbest thing in the world, but if you hire writers, it looks like you made a serious effort to make something great.
Do you remember when the original Suicide Squad movie was coming out? How much did we hear about Killer Croc's actor watching cannibal videos to get into character? Or even the "incredible lengths" Jared Leto went through to personify Joker on and off set?
It looks better when people think you're taking it seriously.
Pretty much confirmed that SEGA controls everything about sonic no derivations fr
Nothing new sonic forces was meant to be far darker then sega got cold feet and they did the same old power of friendship ending
The popular Sega franchise, Sonic the Hedgehog, has been really successful in recent years, forging paths for the recent upcoming titles.
More like 1995 to 2009
Sonic 2006 was rushed everything else after that was solid nothing too fancy but those were fun games.
Sonic 06 sucked. Thats about it. Everything else was solid. People like to over exaggerate things.
There hasn't been a dark point when it comes to Sonic for me. Sonic 06 had problems yes, but people just jumped on the band wagon, there have been plenty of people that have given it try and have said it wasn't as bad as people made out.
Another thing that bugs me is when people talk about Shadow the Hedgehog and moan because it's not like a Sonic game...........are these people stupid ? IT'S NOT A SONIC GAME. Just because Shadow appears in Sonic games it doesn't mean his own spin off game should be like Sonic.
Sonic games are slightly better now but i would have had no problem if they had stayed the same way. People often complain about them being glitchy, it's funny that the same people that complain about the so called glitchyness of Sonic games are also crap at Sonic games. What the real problem is, is that people can't get used to the games because they suck at them and then take the easy way out and say it glitches on them. Every game has glitching problems, i haven't come across a game yet that hasn't.
