Between Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2, which one do you prefer? Anyone can answer this question, by the way.

2. The control is a bit more precise and less slippery, the lack of useless hub worlds appealed to me, I liked its music better overall, and of course the only reason anybody played it

that Chao Garden was ****ing flawless

They're both range from mediocre to awful and have aged like sh*t, but I always liked 2 more.

~~Leo656~~ · 04-02-2015, 01:21 PM

Really have to say the first one by default; I played that one a few times and only played the second one like twice. So it's tough to compare being that I'm more familiar with the first. I like 'em both fine, though.

God, this console. Favorite games were MK III and some Power Rangers game where you basically play through half of season 1. That one was a fighting game as well, I think. I had MK III on SNES but loved the sound effects better on the Sega version. To me, that one sounded more like the arcade game. Loved the playable bosses too. I only wish they'd tweaked them so they'd be equal to the other characters when facing them in VS or arcade ladder. I only used them when I was by myself because I didn't want to be cheap. lol Anywho, good times. I also had a blast with Sonic II. At least I think that was the one that came with my cousins Sega she got one Christmas. This would have been in 93. She sold her's before I got the chance to play III.

If you look around, you can get Sonic 3 for a good price. It's definitely worth playing. It's really a blast if you have the Sonic & Knuckles cartridge - more levels, more Special Stages, and better boss music too.

*blindturtle02* · 04-02-2015, 08:55 PM

I might just have to do that. I never knew too much about Knuckles since I was pretty much forced to quit playing before he debuted, but he seems like an interesting character. Just one of many reasons why I probably should have gone with a Sega back in the day.

*Prowler* · 04-03-2015, 11:28 AM

Isn't Sonic Adventure considered one of the best DC games and arguably the best 3d Sonic game? Has it really aged that badly?

By people who don't know sh*t about video games and/or have awful taste? Sure. And you could argue it wasn't a very good game to begin with, but yes, it has aged horribly.

It has serious nostalgia shielding though, so you still won't get many original fans to admit it.

So this begs the question: Is there any good 3d Sonic game? Colors got some good reviews...

*Ninjinister* · 04-03-2015, 05:02 PM

All I remember from the Sonic Adventure games other than the badass music is how many damn times I would either fall right off of the stage as soon as I was able to pick up speed, or just straight up glitch right through the ground.

*Netkeeper* · 04-03-2015, 05:34 PM

I never experienced any glitches myself. Never understood how that happened to people.

I never finished Colours -- it just wasn't really all that exciting. It was bland as far as Sonic games go. Good? Yeah, sure, but I get bored of playing as just Sonic all the time. At least let us pick Tails ffs, I like flying around levels. Probably the main reason why the Genesis and Advance games got so much play time out of me.

That said, I actually liked Generations a lot, and Black Knight was also fun, but deeply flawed I will admit. It just so happened to hit on a lot of quirks I like in my games so it's a guilty pleasure.

I don't know if I would call it good, but you can try your hand at Sonic 3D Blast on either the MegaDrive or on the Saturn. *The game was released for both Sega consoles.*

*Netkeeper* · 04-04-2015, 05:47 AM

Don't play Sonic 3D Blast unless you like motion sickness.

~~Leo656~~ · 04-04-2015, 05:54 AM

Haha, yeah. I didn't really like that one. It was kind of slow and boring for a Sonic game.

*Netkeeper* · 04-04-2015, 09:44 AM

It was all right on its own and I loved its music, but I literally couldn't play past the first stage without getting motion sickness.

*Ninjinister* · 04-04-2015, 11:35 AM

Like I said, my memory of Adventure 1/2 is hazy, but I'm pretty sure I preferred 3D Blast to either.

*Prowler* · 04-04-2015, 02:44 PM

I have played Sonic 3d Blast before(I own the GC version of Sonic Collection) and it was pretty bad. It was the MD/Genesis version but what's different in the Saturn version other than better graphics?

Agreed on the motion sickness part, btw.

Remove the bolded and I think you have a far more interesting discussion.
