![]() After Sonic 06, Sonic Boom Rise of Lyric, Sonic Forces and Sonic Colors Ultimate, SEGA released another game riddled with bugs and low quality. Pc port is better than sonic mania's, but still not possible to go above 60 fps.ġ5h 10m PlayedHave you ever heard of a game where the developer had to save its integrity on Twitter and call out the publisher for how rushed, unfinished and buggy the final build of the game is? No? Well, then you're in for a ride. It's a shame some original music is missing, but I didn't have any memories of that music so I can't say how much it takes away from the experience. The price is a bit much so grab it on sale. 8.5/10 Sonic Cd: Didn't want to play this one. The final boss is three phases and once again requires an annoying amount of precision. The level design feels a generation ahead. ![]() 7/10 Sonic 3: A substantial improvement over Sonic 2. The boss demands that you be pixel perfect and that got super frustrating. ![]() ![]() The final boss detracted from the experience, I had no rings and had to be perfect for two phases in a row. I did find the music super annoying on one level, and found another level to be pretty frustrating. 6/10 Sonic 2: A big improvement over Sonic 1. It still has charm and great music, but the two sequels are far ahead of it. I didn't use the traditional lives settings, but used the infinite lives coin based option. Also I noticed that you cannot damage the bosses straight away like you could in the originals - this will probably annoy speedrunners - I got used to it and it added more challange rather than just being able to spam hit the boss at the start of each fight.ġ3h 24m PlayedMy first time completing the 2d sonic games. You can always listen to those tracks through another device and play along. Although one negative is that some of the great Sonic 3 tracks have been replaced (probably to do with the Michael Jackson rights). Overall, this feels like a labour of love for the classic Sonic games and is a great way of repalying the games in a new way. Also you can unlock cheat menus for each game and in Sonic 1 this allows Sonic 2 and 3 power ups to be used - although I feel you should play through the games without cheats at first for a satisfying challenge. Missions for each game have been included and they are kind of like the NES Remix games that came out on the Wii U and 3DS. There are boss rush modes for each game which are great fun. Back in the day Sonic 1 and 2 did not have a save function and the third game in the series introduced saving but it would only save at the start of a new zone - if you could not get through act 2 of a zone you would have to play through act 1 again. The anniversary editions make some quality of life improvements such as saving automatically at checkpoints so you can come back at a later point and continue. Despite popular opinion I never really enjoyed the Sonic 2 special stages, but they have had a nice graphical improvement, but I still do not enjoy playing them. I always enjoyed attempting to collect all the Chaos emeralds through the special stages in the classic Sonic games with Sonic 3 and Knuckles being my favourite. The coins can also be used to retry bouns stages if you fail - I feel this is a good addition as the bonus stages can be frustrating as if it is easy to fail if you accidently mess up even slightly. Coins can be used to unlock bonus items such as music, videos and pictures in the museum mode. The coins add to an overall total across each game. ![]() Anniversary mode allows for the collection of coins rather than lives. 24h PlayedDefinitive way to play these classics. ![]()
