How is it pronounced, /v/?
Not this shit again.
It's just hydro-city. Two words, put together.
Hi-Dr-Oh-Sit-Ee
Hydracity
>>319498948
so hydro city
or hydrocity
Hi-Dra-See-Tee
Hide-rock-it-y zone
high-dross-itty
High-dra-city because it sounds cooler.
>>319498780
It's obviously pronounced Hydrocity. Anyone who pronounces it Hydrocity is just stupid.
Name a better platformer than S3&K.
>>319499296
sonic 2
I actually always called it hy draw city as a kid. It literally never occurred to me to call it hydro city until seeing it on /v/
>>319499398
you.
i like you.
>>319499296
Sonic Classic collection for the DS would be if it had S3&K instead of S3 and S&K
Hydro City
Also act 1 theme is better than act 2 theme
>Flying Battery Zone
>Best Music
Pick two.
>>319499296
Knuckles & Knuckles & Knuckles starring Knuckles the Echidna.
HYDRO City
>Green Herb
>>319499624
I'm sorry, but I'm more of an Ice Cap Zone guy myself.
I know it's Hydro City now, but as a kid I always pronounced it High Draw City.
>>319499720
>>319499624
Marble zone you fags
>>319499720
Ice Cap is literal plebeian tier
>>319499803
>i see your marble zone and raise you doomsday zone
If they wanted it to be pronounced "hydro city" they would've put a space in it.
But since they broke the tradition of zones being named two words, they obviously want you to pronounce it "hy-DROSS-ity"
>>319499624
>>319499720
Flying Battery, Ice Cap, and Chemical Plant are the holy trinity of Sonic music.
ヒドラシティ
>>319499859
time to go live in my pleb-shed with my ice cap zone. :(((
>>319499624
He's right
Also I fucking love carnival night theme, and death egg.
I really gotta play sonic 3 again.
Hydro-city
But high-dra-city sounds cooler
>>319499693
Richter is pretty.
>>319498780
Hi-Drah-Sity
Z-Oh-Ne
who lava reef zone act1/2
When I was a kid I would call it Hi-Draw-City Zone
But now I've grown up.

A hydro city.

Is Mushroom Hill Zone the most underrated "first level" of 2D Sonic?
>>319499296
Mario 3, klonoa, banjo kazooie, jak and daxter, dkc2, yoshis island

The only reason pronunciation should be used, to make things sound cooler.

>>319499491
It does have S3&K you dumb fuck
>>319500505
but its not ancient ruins
its a hydro city
>>319500182
The fact Ice Cap didn't win makes that a terrible version as well
>>319498780
hi-dross-it-y
>>319500505
Ruins could be cities once. Though Hydrocity doesn't look anything like a ruin. If any zone looks like a ruin it's Marble Zone.
>>319500648
HIDRASHITAI!
Sonic 2 a shit
too long
goes to shit after Mystic Caves
levels following it are just a chore
3&K better simply for having saves
1 better designed and better length
even CD better for advancing in new direction
Sonic 2 just a shit
>>319500813

What 2D sonic gayms should I play beside the following?
Sonic 1-3and Knuckles
Sonic CD
Sonic Advanced 2
Sonic Rush Adventure
these are all I've played
any good fan made/rom hacks or whatever?
>>319499210
I know it's probably pronounced Hydro-city, but I honestly have always preferred this pronunciation.
>>319500815
>ティ
>"tai″
>>319500648
It's a small イ
I've always called it Hydro City, but now that you mentioned it OP, it's probably is supposed to sound like Hydracity (hydrasitty)
>>319500182
>Aquatic Ruin better than Lava Reef
>Oil Ocean better than Ice Cap
I'm perturbed
>>319501185
It isn't.
>>319501068
I highly recommend Sonic Spinball. Not really platformer but a fun take on the potential of casino night.
high dross itty

>>319498780
"high dross ity" is the correct pronunciation. The difference between pronunciations is a matter of accent. English speaking people who live within civilized borders should pronounce it something like this. Time is money, and even our accents reflect this, as we don't have time to waste with all those syllables.
Only bumpkins from out of town, or people who don't speak English as their first language bother pronouncing every single syllable in the name of a location.

ice cap is the least interesting level in sonic 3, the only reason anyone ever thinks it was good was the music, and the music itself isnt nearly as good as any of the other tracks included in that game
obviously the hyper sonic glitch in oil ocean beats out ice crap.
also
>lava reef
the only cool thing about that level is the deathegg in the background, other than that even sandopolis is a more interesting level
you scums are the bane of the earth
>>319502565
Everything from Lava Reef on is still the best moments in any Sonic game.
>>319499296
As the die-hard'n'ist Sonic fan:
>Mario World
>Rayman Legends
I choose not to include 3D Platformers in this discussion since they are so very different from 2D.
>>319501068
The original Sonic Advance is the closest to a Sonic 4 we will likely ever get, in terms of level design and physics, so I'd say that.
>>319498780
High-droh-sih-tee
if they wanted it to be "hydro city" they'dve made it 2 separate words
>>319499879
The mini boss theme from Sonic and Knuckles doesn't get the love it deserves.
>>319499971
Sounds like you're going to hithard times
Hy-DRAH-sit-ee
It's all one word. If it were "Hydro City" then it would be pronounced as hy-DRO SIT-ee
I have never once heard it pronounced Hy-dross-city before this thread. While that's a neat play on velocity, it's too late for me to call it anything but Hydro City.
>>319498780
Hye-draw-sit-ee
Hydros-ity
>>319498780
When I was younger I was looking up about this zone on some website and my mum walked in and was like, 'Why are you looking at hydrocity?' thinking I was some kind of child genius
>>319508330
How old are you?
>>319508462

I started playing these Sanic games and I suck.
Yeah 2 fast 4 u but going fast is a good way to get yourself killed so what's the point?

>>319499212
Mother fuckin this.
>>319498780
rhymes with atrocity (even though it's a great stage)
>>319512810
No shame. It's a fine soundtrack.
>>319500875
>goes to shit after Mystic Caves
I'll agree with you on this 100%.
But 1's not better designed. Marble's better than I used to think as a kid, but Labyrinth is awful and Spring Yard is fun but kind of a mess. 2's got a better balance of speed and platforming than any stage in 1.
>>319500182
Doomsday is cool but it's such a gimmick level that it shouldn't have been counted, honestly. It doesn't play like Sonic.
Anyone else miss the daily Sonic Archie dumps? Really could use that comfy feel.
>>319499398
As someone who likes both, how the fuck can anyone legitimately like 2 more than 3&K?
>>319508639
Because I was thinking you were underage b&.
The only downside of S3K is that there isn't any more of S3K. Same with Generations.
It's pernounced "SE-COND-PLACE"

Sonic 2 is an "in and out" arcade experience, while Sonic 3 and Knuckles is more of a console "comfy Sunday afternoon" affair. For the most part, neither game is objectively better than the other. It just boils down to personal preference. I like the long game experience more, so I gravitate more towards Sonic 3.
It's not really that difficult to see, anon. Lots of games are like this.
>>319499296
there is none
>>319499879
>Chemical Plant
plz anon
Aquatic Ruin>Chemical Plant
And not mentioning Quartz Quadrant Present JP or Quartz Quadrant Good Future JP or Stardust Speedway Present JP or Stardust Speedway Good Future JP
>>319500768
Are you kidding me?
Ice Cap Act 1 is the worst level in the game
Act 2 is better but still
Marbel Garden is the best level in Sonic 3K and in the whole franchise
>>319500875
Sonic 2 is better than CD
In CD you have fun while time traveling and going to kill the robot generator and stuff but as soon as you done that and you start running towards the goal post you realize how boring these levels are to run through
Agree with the rest tho
>>319513279
Fuck no
1 is definitely better designed
Labyrinth is a fucking water level
Whether you like it or not that's up to the player but you can't claim it's badly designed
There's nothing wrong with Spring Yard either
The only thing wrong with Sonic 1 is that Scrap Brain Act 3 is just Labyrinth Act 4
That's fucking it
>>319501068
>Sonic Advance 2
Anon...to take off that horrible taste in your mouth I suggest playing Sonic Advance 1 as it's the closest to the original trilogy
Also give Sonic Pocket Adventure for the Neo Geo Pocket Color a try(you can ofc emulate it)
>>319508762
git gud
>>319509393
>posting the genesis soundtrack
>not the superior saturn one
>>319517043
Not really
Sonic 2 is pretty long too
I can understand somebody saying Sonic 1 is an arcade experience(and even then it's a huge stretch) but Sonic 2? Nuh-uh
Most people who enjoy Sonic 2 better do so because it's likely their first Sonic game or even their first game ever...so it's because of Nostalgia
