5 Reasons Sonic Jumped the Shark in Sonic Adventure

Original Gamer: "Sonic Adventure was good, but it marked the beginning of Sonic's descent into mediocrity. While it was not the beginning of the end, Sonic Adventure was the beginning of the crap."

lol i just wish sonic just jump to the mature realm

GamingBuddha095111d ago

i know sonic catches a lot of slack, but this has me wondering what about Mario? hes changed over the years as well and has had twice as many games as sonic? how come no one ever says anything about him? just a thought

edsoliz5109d ago

The difference is that the Mario games have maintained a high level of quality over the years and have been successful in introducing new elements (3D in Mario Galaxy, multiplayer in New SMB Wii). The spin-offs (sports, Mario Kart, Smash Bros) have also been good. The problem, which I may address in a future video, is that Nintendo doesn't make anything ELSE.

The 7 Best Sonic the Hedgehog Games: Racing through Time

Sonic the Hedgehog has a long and turbulent history in videogames, but which are the best games featuring the blue bur?

Rebel_Scum494d ago

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.

Snookies12494d ago

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.

Profchaos494d ago (Edited 494d ago )

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

Profchaos494d ago (Edited 494d ago )

The 8 bit games were pretty bad overall do you mean the 16 bit ones

Rebel_Scum494d ago

Nope. Sonic 1 & 2 on the master system were great. Dont confuse these with the game gear versions either.

Profchaos494d ago

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 😭

Chocoburger492d ago

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.

If I have to read another one of these lists that contains the sentence "The game that started it all" I'm gonna go nuts.

And when it comes to fan favourite zones in Sonic 3 (he mentioned Hydro City, Marble Garden and Launch Base), I'd replace Launch base and Marble Garden with Ice Cap zone. Never heard anyone refer to the others as favourites.

NJShadow1074d ago (Edited 1074d ago )

I sorta' stopped caring about this list when I saw Sonic Spinball (a genuinely great game) ranked lower than some of the noted atrocities.

Pyrofire951073d ago

Sonic and All Stars Racing Transformed is still my favorite kart racer.
I've never really been able to play online tho. D:
Can't even play Team Sonic Racing online cause the servers are broken and don't queue people together.
P.S. This is such a random list. I really don't agree with it. Maybe this really is how they rank it but them just seems odd personally.
