As part of the continuing celebrations of the twentieth anniversary of Sonic The Hedgehog, SEGA has unveiled an all-new high quality Metal Sonic statue. Set to be available in September, the Metal Sonic statue is reportedly limited to just 1,500 pieces worldwide.
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 divide between both iterations of Sonic is now reaching spin-off territory, and the way Sega is handling it is both a blessing and a curse.
BLG writes: "With the success of the films and the promise of Frontiers, it’s possible that we’re ushering in a new golden age of Sonic the Hedgehog. While Sega is looking forward, the company is also looking back. It’s giving us Sonic Origins, a retooled collection of Genesis classics. However, this package fails to provoke a burning question: what’s the best Sonic handheld game?"
Is it me or does electronictheatre never tell you where you can buy the stuff they talk about
I love Metal Sonic, 2nd is Shadow.
man i thought it looks like the picture.
That is so good.
Thats been available to pre-order for months and months, totally not new or even recent news at all! There's two versions of it, a normal one like the picture shows and an exclusive version that has light up eyes, sparks and central turbine piece. It's being made by First4Figures. They have a website and a Facebook page. These guys also made the large Classic Sonic statue and the Super Sonic statue that lights up. They also have a Classic Knuckles statue on the way which they have a sneak-peak picture of on their Facebook page, and have mentioned they have a Classic Tails and Modern Sonic statue on the way. Those limited 20th anniversary statues that have been floating around are also First4Figures work.
Like a previous poster said, would it have been so hard for the news article to let people in on who's doing it and where to order it etc for those that don't know already??
