>Compare a game made in 1991 to a game made in 1994

Mario had the better exploration in terms of multiple levels, Sonic had better exploration in terms of alternate paths within levels

Sonic had the objectively better soundtrack. I love Mario games but SMW was one of the most lacking in terms of soundtrack.

Replayability, SMW wins too with the exits and special worlds. Knuckles paths are interesting but it's just replaying the game again with some slight differences.

Gameplay, Sonics is more fun. Shield power ups are instantly available, every character has their own abilities to explore levels in different ways, and so on. Marios arsenal is just the star, fire flower, Yoshi (and his different conditions of flight, fireball and stomp). Marios power ups do allow level exploration to alternate routes, but it's less in-your-face than Sonic is about it.

I don't fucking know.

Because modern games have a habit of stringing players along by having just enough in them that the fans go "well, if they expand on the good stuff and get rid of the bad stuff the next game should be good." Aside from 06 and Boom they're never complete disasters.

is a setpiece supposed to prove anything? That's what Sonic has always been - going fast from one epic cool badass setpiece to the next. The old games used to let you try and use alternate paths to get powerups and stuff, but the modern ones don't even bother.

That "setpiece" can be utilized freely, since you weren't paying attention to the gif. It's not an automated prop like the shitty modern Sonic games. Sonic has the added dimension of rotation involved in the platforming, where his movement is affected by speed and angle on terrain. The game has basic physical rules and gives you big wild levels to let loose in. It has a much greater degree of technical depth than SMW. It's literally everything SMW is and much more.

I only grew up with Mario so it might be bias, but the classic Sonic trilogy I think beats the first four Mario games by a large margin.

Once it jumps to 3D Sonic declines pretty fast while Mario stays consistently good, but I'd call classic Sonic great and better than Mario.

SMB3 > SMW anyway.

>>331325506

Mario is undeniably the better series but...I found Sanic 3 & Knuckles more fun to play as a game than SMW.

S3&K vs. Yoshi's Island would be a fairer comparison.

Regardless, a game with the scope of SMW could still potentially be made again today. Meanwhile, Sonic 3&K's scope would be impossible to reproduce. It's a real once in a lifetime thing, even if you don't care for the sonic gameplay.

- Every stage has a unique BGM with a rearrangement for Act 2.
- Every stage has unique graphics, several unique gimmicks and an entirely new set of enemies.
- Every stage has two unique boss encounters, one for each Act.
- Knuckles campaign has alternate routes(Some, like Launch Base Act 2, are practically new stages) and some new boss encounters.

SA1 and SA2 have (maybe?) more stages by virtue of reusing assets. SA2 might have like 20+ stages but there's only like four or five different environments (pyramid stages, jungle stages, military base stages, etc.)

There's definitely not a game with More Bosses though.

Let me guess. It takes 2 hits. WOW.

Blocking a screen for ONE enemy is a good thing? OK.

That's also a good thing? To constrain a player to ONE path? I don't think so

Jumping over that is not big deal. Since, that's the only thing you can do.

Because you're attacking at a high speed.

It's like you've never played a Sonic game before.

Amazing argument, forgetting Mario had something like that as well. On top of that, the "momentum" was always in a set piece where you had no control or when doing anything other than spin dashing was the only thing to do and you were pretty much just watching Sonic go right.

>>331336210
>Dat cherry picking
Multiple paths and multiple exits which lead to more paths on the game map itself. All this, plus much more interaction with terrain and puzzles and 60 or more levels.

Sonic 3 & Knuckles was the beginning of the downfall of Sonic because Sega decided to Jew customers by releasing two halves of one game at full price each, setting the precedent for fucking up the development process because they think Sonic fans would slurp down whatever bullshit they shat out instead of demanding a well-made game.

The original SMW was good for its time but the problem is that it's too simplistic. There's very little replay value because the levels are all very same-y in terms of design and gameplay; especially once you get the cape. Things only really get interesting once you get to the Special World.

Sonic 3 has better replay value and overall more interesting level design.

There was nothing about the rest of his argument that makes it valid. Control is not taken away from the player, and momentum is not an automated set piece by any means.

Not him, and I defend classic Sonic, but its worst problem is how close the camera is. In these videos there are clearly moments where a jump is made before what it's made for is even visible with the camera.

I love S3&K, in fact I was playing it yesterday on my Saturn.

But I dunno, they're very different games to compare.

You can't juggle with objects on Sonic
