Critical Gamer's monthly music feature celebrates the Dreamcast in honor of its 13th anniversary, recalling the varied soundtracks that defined it along the way.
Sonic Adventure 2 is seeing more players on Steam than ever before thanks to the theatrical release of the Sonic 3 movie.
Huh, it's almost like they should try listening to fans that have asked for a new one over the last two decades... At this point, I've given up hope though honestly. Saw a lot of people loving Frontiers, but I could not get into it. It just felt so generic with the world and level designs. The thing I loved about the franchise was that each level felt unique with the colors, design, music, etc.
Also, don't you have to get a mod to even run this above 30 FPS on Steam? I recall someone on YouTube playing this for the first time and having a hard time getting things working. Sucks that such a beloved game is treated poorly.
SA2 was only good as Sonic. Knuckles levels were pure disaster.
SA1 was a far better game.
I actually liked the robotnik levels least of all. Knuckles wasn't too bad cause of the music lol.
I agree the knuckle levels were the worst part of the game. It broke the flow of the gameplay and the music was off for a sonic game. It felt like those knuckle levels were made by a different dev.
The Sonic and tails levels, however, were awesome. The multiplayer mode was interesting and my brother and I spent hours

Still have SA2 Battle. Those Knuckles & Rouge stages aged very poorly but I still have fun with all the other character stages. Shame Sega doesn't seem interested. I can't imagine fans were clamoring for a mediocre Colors port over either SA game being ported.
i still have it for gamecube ps3 and ps4 haha.
good game, but chaannky. or the camera is anyways
It's like most devs will never actually atleast try to deliver a fan favorite title. Simpsons hit&run remake or sequel, bully 2, new sonic adventures title, another thoroughly made good batman singeplayer titles. Smh the list goes on
Ewwww 3D Sonic. Should be playing a good Sonic game. Heck even Sonic Spinball over that trash.
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.
Sonic Frontiers has won over Japan after years of poor sales.
For someone like me that started playing games at late 90s it was heartbreaking to see what happened to SEGA. Good to hear this because how things were going in the last years for them. I remember the time when they closed a lot of arcades in Japan. Or even when Microsoft almost bought them several years ago.
I have a feeling the sales will drop a ton the next week since everyone figured out it's barebones and a technical mess. Hype and name brand can only get you so far.
I wanted to like this game but they did everything possible to disappoint. Maybe they can use this as a stepping stone for a future title, but so far this isn't it.
