I actually don't mind any of the USA tracks. My only issue with the American soundtrack is that it doesn't seem to know the difference between "good" and "bad"
Half the time the good future sounds just as evil as the bad future.

But like other winning formulas, SEGA decided to not use them

Sonic CD is the direction I wish the franchise had stayed with.
It really differentiated it from other platformers.
>>336042982
There was animosity between the sonic 2 team in the states and the CD team in Japan.
Yuji Naka made sure that his team had the final say
WHIP THAT FUCKING ASS
COME ON NOW
>>336043336
Lol there was outright bigotry towards Sega US from Sega JP, the US division was more successful so it got sabotaged by the suits in Japan, Naka included, the cunt. Sonic would still be a wet fart if it weren't for Sonic 2, 3, and Knuckles.
>>336043535
Man, growing up with the US version and then figuring out that the JP/EU version had its own music was a strange experience. That boss music.I love it.

>>336043703
Sonic CD began development first and was intended to be the true sequel to Sonic the Hedgehog. It was about 90% complete and got delayed almost a year so it could take a back seat to Sonic 2, all of this at Naka's request.
Then, on top of that, Naka began development on Sonic 3 (a game he intentionally split into 2 packages to maximize profits) and had CD moved to the irrelevant Sega CD.
Naka was a straight up asshole to the Japanese team.

How does a franchise like Sonic still hold up? If you think about it, what's considered the best 3D games are usually SA1 (Wich a lot of people agree only 30% of the game is enjoyable) SA2 (Same problem as SA1), Unleashed (Barely a good game saved by the story and the fact it came out in the heels of the worst Sonic games ever), Colors (Wich is short and easy, but barely 3D and it started the big sequences where the level plays itself) and Generations (The only good 3D game IMO)
Everything else is garbage, devs allways put something Sonic related every year since the 90s
Why SEGA and Sonic still exist to this day is a mystery to me
>>336044745
I hate these fucking things its like I touch them just for them to slide pass me.
>>336046915
You forgot heroes which a lot of people like.
There hasnt been a main sonic entry since 2013 with lost world which actually is a decent game but it just doesnt feel sonicy. Youre not a sonic fan so you dont understand what the last 3 years have been like, seeing nothing but mobile games and boom. Back when sonic was a yearly franchise in 2012 and under fans were more satisfied. The quality of this years game has to be out of the house since its taken so long and the main team hasnt done anything since generations. Like unleashed levels of production and quality. Otherwise it will have been 3 years of waiting for nothing

No i didn't, while a playthrough of Team Rose or Sonic is enjoyable the game is TERRIBLY designed to make you repeat the game 4 times in order to unlock the last story
>>336047604
Name one good 3D game besides Unleashed and Generations and justify it faggot
>>336039653
>>336039653
This is almost right except switch Tidal Tempest and Stardust Speedway.
Obviously I never played Sonic CD on a Japanese Sega CD, so I never got to experience the Jap tracks in-game until the Taxman release, but was the Japanese opening always without lyrics? I thought there were words.

S3K really isnt as good as you and the internet have hyped it up to be. I wouldnt be happy if all they did was make cheap shitty 2D games and thats why I've been disappointed with the series direction since 2010. Unleashed was the last major 3D game with fun levels and high production values and it shines through. Everything after feels gutted
Thats a dumb choice with heroes but you dont have to rush the game you know. Im trying to go back to 2004 when i got heroes...i think i managed one team per week when i was in middle school? That sounds about right. The first part of the last story kind of sucks but the metal overlord fight with the dark clouds and what im made of with super tails and knuckles was bretty good.

We can all agree that Saturn > Genesis when it comes to 3D Blast, right?
>>336048193
Oh don't get me wrong, i love Heroes and i like the stages, the music, i just can't defend that kind of design. I can't say i think that Heroes is a decent game when you have to literally replay the game 4 times and the stages barely change in a way that could be considered almost a ROM hack
What i mean with S3&K is not that i want them to make 2D games, is just that back then all three characters were fast and they had their own gimmicks, i still think SA1 should've just been Sonic, Tails & Knuckles
I really liked Unleashed but i can't say i enjoyed what could be 30-40% of the game (Only the daytime stages), hate playing as the Werehog and then say Unleashed was great, it was decent at most and it came around the time where Sonic was pretty much dead except for handheld shit
>>336048702
Genesis had some sick tracks so I disagree.
>>336048702
I can't completely choose one over the other for 3D Blast.
>>336048702

No. USA has a much better stardust in all fields. The only reason so many people identify with the Jap stardust is because Sega has been insistent on playing it every time metal shows up.

What are they actually saying? I am terrible with understanding lyrics in everything.
>>336049479
>>336048834
I dont really see the issue in having to clear a lot of the game to get a true ending. Ive seen people flip over things like that or "true endings" in jrpgs and shit where you have to do certain things or pick certain choices to access. it just doesnt bother me so I cant use it as a negative against heroes. I just remember having a lot of fun A ranking it all, doing all side missions, chaotix etc and then getting super hard mode. While not varied, heroes uses its content well and it feels like a pretty full game outside of the minimal story. If i had to give a complaint to heroes outside of the weak story, id say its the special stages. Getting into them was easy but fuck they were a mess to play without team rose.
I guess that makes sense for the 2D games but its not something that has a lot of value for me. I can count the number of times i played as tails or knuckles in the old games on one hand. I like the characters themselves but i just prefer playing as sonic since hes my favorite sonic character. SA1 wouldve been better if they scrapped big and gamma. Focusing on 4 characters wouldve allowed them to generate a few more stages and i thought amy was a nice change of pace. A weird hybrid of stealth/running/platforming/exploring but it oddly did the trick for me. I actually always wished there was more amy levels and i had a lot of fun with her story. Then again i like everyones stories in SA1.
Im in the same boat with unleashed where I love all of it. The first time i was playing through it i couldn't stop replaying werehog levels. It was like amys levels but with much better fleshed out combat, bigger and better looking levels, and more shit to look for. I dont think I wouldve enjoyed Unleashed nearly as much if there was no werehog and its my second favorite story in sonic. I know thats a minority opinion but what i would give for a PC port of unleashed. Id like to try my hand at making stages for the werehog to show how fun he can be
>>336049745
I'm with you, I rarely listen for the lyrics so I usually tune that stuff out, but even if I tried I can never understand what Japanese people singing in English are saying.

Has to do with the 50HZ as opposed to 60HZ everywhere else in the world.

Sorry but i completely disagree, you talk about replaying Heroes like something changes between stages and it just doesn't. Heroes is one of the first games where the stage time starts creeping up on the 8-10 minutes and that's too much for a Sonic game
Unleashed is a game where Sonic is not Sonic, if they would've used Knuckles as the Werehog then i would've been a bit more ok with it maybe but it was a bad God of War ripoff, maybe you liked it but at the end of the day Unleashed is 30% Sonic, 70% Werehog and that's another example of bad design
Sonic games after 3&K are bad IMO, when i take a step back, take my nostalgia goggles off and then judge the product as a whole i can tell that they are not as great as my brain is telling me. A shame though because i really like this franchise
I can only hope this year's Sonic game is just a 3D classic-style game.
>>336052181
YEAHH!
Also, i love the children chant in the bad future version, very well used
You guys prefer Stardust Speedway US over JP? Really?
I think they're both great, but JP wins by miles.
I grew up playing with the US soundtrack. The Japanese soundtrack is vastly superior, for the sampling alone. Good thing the past tracks are hardwired in the system, or I would have never known the original music at all. That said, some of them were okay. But most of the tracks were boring noise.
>>336052472
>hz=fps
What was amy doing on little planet and how did she get there
>>336052480
When a game is downgraded to 50 hz from 60 hz it's slowed down by 1/6th. EVERYTHING is affected, including music.
>>336053750
I think the jap one just sounds plain stupid to be honest.
The thing, to me, with most of the sonic cd usa soundtrack is that, its like perfect driving and ambient music. There are so many situations where tracks just work. Last night i was cruising down the highway and stardust speedway good future us was blasting on my radio. it was just so perfect and i got the scenery of the green zone in my head and shit. its hard to describe but it was really fucking surreal. I have no attachment to the jp version outside of quarts quadrant. the us one is way better imo

3&K was made solely by the Japanese Team precisely because of communication/language barrier issues with Sonic 2(and it fucking showed in Sonic 2 which was the glitchiest/most rushed game out of the classics by far)
CD was an experimental game because they were not sure what direction to take Sonic in
You have Hirokazu Yasuhara to thank for the direction Sonic took with 1,2 and 3&K...he knew Sonic's strengths and knew how to design levels that suited his game
CD fanboys think their game is perfect and flawless when in fact despite being a good game it's definitely not what suited the character at least not from a level design standpoint(art style was great although art direction wasn't tho...especially disappointing for a Sega CD game graphically considering Sonic 3,Ristar,Comix Zone which are Genesis games look lightyears ahead)

This changed later when they decided to make Sonic CD it's own game instead

Also 3 wasn't split intentionally because of "muh profits" you fucking lying fraud...neither was it by Naka
It was split because the project ended up being too big and a 34meg cart in 1994 was too expensive(Phantasy Star IV was sold for 100$ back then) and they figured since this was targeted to kids there's no way their parents would buy them a $100 game

A part of me doesnt want to believe this but...what if there is no anniversary game this year? They have like 2 weeks left to announce something in the usual timeframe and its been dead quiet

Nah...they got their hands full with mobile sonics. Not all of them are money makers anyway
>>336056507
No fucking way, i refuse to believe that
>>336056537
Generations is a last gen game and no more than 5% of players would buy dlc for it. Maybe a super bundle with all main sonic games remastered and some dlc but not stand alone dlc

I'm actually in the middle but I think it doesn't suit Sonic ultimately
It's good for exploration but underwhelming for everything else
>>336052480
it could be fixed, sega was just lazy with sonic 1
One of the things I really like about 3D blast is how they experament3d a lot more with the zone types.
Most sonic games have your standard grassy beginning, then cave, casino, water, machine, etc.
3D Blast has the opening green stage and the closing mechanical stage, but then it has all kinds of stuff we normally don't see.
Rusty Ruin is a great addition and Gene Gadget is a unique gene-splicing has science gone too far laboratory feel.
It's actually my favorite track in the game.

Agreed, the US soundtrack gets a fairly bad rap at large but the only track that's legit unfitting is US Collision Chaos. It's so somber and downbeat that on my first playthrough I thought I was already in the bad future when I started the stage.
Otherwise I think US OST is underrated.

feels horrible to be a Sonic fan, the only thing we are going to get is Sonic Boom whatever, i'm surprised they are trying again with that fucking franchise considering how bad Boom bombed
>>336057053
Ooops, thanks.
I unironically like Sonic R's music.
>>336056380
I wouldn't be surprised if 2017 is the next game. The April Fools thing this year by the Sonic twitter hinted that it's been delayed.
>>336054672
>On the subject of master system, did you know that "You Can Do Anything" is a remix of Green Hills Zone from Master System Sonic 2?
Same composers
Naofumi Hataya & Masafumi Ogata
>>336054672
more interestingly, there are actually two versions of You Can Do Anything, where the singer sings VERY slightly differently.
why? i dont fucking know why
>>336054131
>>336054298
Interesting. It's usually the exact opposite.
>>336056380
There's probably something in the works. They must be saving it for E3. It's not unprecedented, Bethesda did it with Fallout 4 last year.
>>336048193
I'm really glad someone shares this fucking sentiment. Grew up with a Genesis, and 3&K was good, but not this fucking beacon for the Genesis. People shit on 2 for being weak and 1 is just "classic", but I'd rather play those or CD than 3&K.

In Sega's mind maybe, seeing as they keep reusing it for metal's theme
>>336057112
What I always do is start on Japan and they switch it to USA after Tidal Tempest and keep it there.

You would have to have no soul to dislike Sonic R's soundtrack.

"Yuji Naka at first hit the same hesitation that he had when approached with Sonic 2, not wanting to simply work on the same game over and over again. He finally agreed to be a part of the project if he was allowed to work primarily with the Japanese-half of STI, hoping to avoid much of the drama that resulted during the last game because of the differences between the Japanese and American work culture. Also fishing for a promotion, Sega decided to give in to Naka's demands, knowing how important the game was and its almost assured success. Giving him the title of Producer, Naka was granted the freedom he had been looking for, once again embraced into the staff of Sega of Japan. Not wanting to leave the American side of STI in the dust, Sega gave them a separate Sonic the Hedgehog-related project to work on that would fill in a gap in scheduling between Sonic 2 and Sonic 3, Sonic the Hedgehog Spinball."

>>336057112
For what it's worth, the boss theme, Collision Chaos and Metallic Madness for the US was done by Sterling Crew rather than Spencer Nilsen.
>>336057529
1 through 3&K were good games, lots of people like 2, others like 3&K but the games don't vary that much and they don't rely on alternate gameplay styles, you go fast on all games, you platform on all games too.
This is what fans want in a 3D Sonic game, go fast and platform, Generations did that and that's why a lot of people just say "Do Generations again with more story and that's it"
>>336057853
Adventure 2's Sonic and Shadow stages did it the best, in my opinion.
>>336057853
Also, fans want more content than generations.
22 levels in 2011 would not be acceptable if it was any other platformer
>>336057794
True indeed. I like their take on Metallic Madness, even though it's still a little too quiet and jarring to listen to in background to Sonic's "BWOOP" jump sound effect.
>>336058026
To be fair, it was released at half price.
>>336057627
>>336057717
DIAMOND IN THE SKYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY~
Best track in that game.
Anyone here listen to OCRemix's Sonic CD: Temporal Duality? It has some phat tracks.
>>336057853
I completely agree with all of that. I'm actually replaying Generations right now, even though I 100%'d it on Xbox back when it came out, just because it was so well made. I can deal with the lack of some levels I wished were in, just because this is probably the last really good Sonic game we'll get for a while.
>>336058189
Some pretty good tracks, lots of forgettable ones.
I should give it a relisten sometime in the near future.
>>336057214
Sonic R's Instrumental Soundtrack is one of the best Vidya Soundtracks of all time
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXdrIhYVkuk
>>336058189
It's okay. It still has the problem a lot of OCR's remix albums have, which is people who can't fucking sing putting lyrics to the music. The arrangements of Sonic Boom and Metallic Madness (JP) are laughably bad because of that.

>>336058850
Agreed
The Modern Levels are typical boost shit from Unleashed(yet another failed 3D experiment)
The classics levels have shit physics and average level design at best
People only praise it because it isn't Sonic '06

Actually think they're pretty equal. Lose some pluses to get some other ones. Prefer MM1, but I can admit that's my rose-tinted goggles, as I started the series with the first one. Too bad you're 2 > 3 projection onto me shat the bed though.

Anything that isn't '06 deserves a medal and a pat on the back.
A video game not being Sonic '06 is like a person not being Anthony Burch.

the vocals are generic and ruin the songs

>>336059320
>but I can admit that's my rose-tinted goggles
And the same goes for Sonic 1,2 and CD apparently because though good games none of them even remotely come close to 3&K
It's like comparing Super Mario Bros. 1 to Super Mario World
>>336059662
Because it IS the best. It's were you are suppose to play the Adventure games. No Gamecube, no Steam, NO. If you played them on those two platforms than you are playing them all wrong.
>>336058952
I will never understand why some people like Sonic 2 over S3&K.
>>336059595
Probably not. I think we're stuck with orchestral stuff and violins until people get completely tired of it.
>>336059459
>>336058009
Sorry but all the games from the Dreamcast to Unleashed are TERRIBLY DESIGNED
If you are only going to enjoy certain parts of the game that could make up to be only 30-40% of the total content of the game then IT'S A TERRIBLE GAME. A lot of people say that Heroes was good aswell but it's still terribly designed if you have to replay the game 4 times in order to get the true ending
I will never understand why people defend SA1 and 2 as good games when the same people who think they are great barely replay Mech/Treasure hunting missions
Alright /v/ let's settle this

SA2. No contest.

The only thing left to be done is to capture the essential life data from your counterpart.
Then you will be complete!
MY HYPER METAL SONIC!!!

>>336060176
Nigger, I like all of SA2.
I only mentioned the parts that fit that anon's criteria.
The longer you go without playing a Sonic game the more you realize how shit 3D Sonic is. Adventure 1/2 we're both average, Heroes is average, Shadow was shit, 06 is 06, Secret Rings is shit, Black Knight is shit, Colors is below average, Lost World is below average
The last good 3D Sonic was Generations, why do we pretend 3D Sonic is good?
>>336059595
They did...Jet Set Radio in 2000 and Jet Set Radio Future in 2002
>>336060176
I enjoyed most of SA2 though
>>336060186
SA2 fits better as Sonic's theme
SA1 fits better as a stage theme or a song
>>336060336
Metal Sonic is so cool. I want him to be playable again or at least have a skin unlock like Adventure.
>>336060186
That's not tough at all.

>>336060186
