GameXplain: "For a long time now, gamers have looked at Sonic the Hedgehog like he was a joke. His games were terrible, the characters were annoying, and he had lost all relevance. Titles like Sonic 2006 and Shadow the Hedgehog hammered this home yet the blue hedgehog continued to sell well. But what many people never realized was that after the bottomless hellhole that was the 2006 release, Sonic Team began to take notes. Sonic Unleashed, while mainly remembered for the werehog, had great daytime levels that showed Sonic could still be fun. Sonic Colors took that idea and created a game that had an equal focus on platforming and speed. Each was slightly better than the last and that has culminated with Sonic Generations, hands down the best Sonic game since Sonic 3 & Knuckles."
Sonic X Shadow Generations is a remaster of Sonic Generations released in 2011. The real question is, does the remaster live up to the hype of the original?
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.
Better than Colors? Wow I loved that gaer
wow, finally a return to glory?
I just got this game off steam, Its a really good sonic game. I had to turn off anti aliasing because my athlon II x4 cant handle the "blast processing".
I just orderd this, I love 3d sonic especially sonic adventure from the dreamcast, finally another great sonic game. Good times :)
