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.

US collision chaos is legitimately bad
I still to this day love this game just based on the visuals and the concept of "Do something right in the past to make a good 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

>You forgot heroes which a lot of people like
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.

How can you hear that so badly
>>336049617
What are they actually saying? I am terrible with understanding lyrics in everything.
>>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

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.

>>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.

Naofumi Hataya & Masafumi Ogata

more interestingly, there are actually two versions of You Can Do Anything, where the singer sings VERY slightly differently.

>>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.

"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.

>>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.

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

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.

Though both are great and Tony Harnell has one heck of a range
>>336060552
sorry normie
S3&K > Sonic 2
>>336060423Those aren't Sanic gaems.
>>336060186
SA1's is more heroic. It fits some of the darker moments when Sonic shows just how noble he can be really well. I particularly like when it plays during the scene on the Egg Carrier, when he tells the others to get off the ship before it crashes while he stays behind to finish off Eggman.
SA2's fits Sonic's character better though. It sounds upbeat and high-energy. It really gives the impression of Sonic running freely across the world. I think the lyrics also fit the melody here better than in the SA1 version, which is bizarre because it's a remix. I'd say this is probably the better song overall.

Honestly the only reason I'd replay the game would be to listen to all the silly banter again.Also to beat the special stages legitimately.Jokes aside, allowing muting/adjusting voice volume should be standard in video games.
>>336061679
>>336060004
Actually wait, I didn't even commentate on your piss poor comparison because I was caught up in your initial bullshit. That comparison is so fucking wrong it hurts. My viewpoint on MM or Sonic games can't be compared like that, because SMW is not a sequel, but a completely different iteration within the same series. Beyond that though, the SMB games evolved differently, growing better with each succession up to 3. Sonic didn't peak at 3&K in the original trilogy, let alone in the entirety of the fucking franchise. You'd be more apt to say something more recent or something before 3, because 3 is a clusterfuck. A good one, but a clusterfuck that 1 and 2, Adventures, and Generations never felt like.

And you said Sonic 3 was a clusterfuck(when it's one of the most consistent and cohesive experiences you'll have in a video game) so your opinion is worth jackshit moron kys
What would Sonic do if he witnessed this situation first-hand?

Less population back then. Video games were also extremely niche. Just barely trying to break into the mainstream. Everyone plays games nowadays. Don't even try that angle. People complain about the 'IT'S THE CURRENT YEAR' meme, but there's a reason why it gets brought up. 2016 is not that same as the 90s, don't pretend it is.
Switch Tidal Tempest with Quartz Quadrant and I'd more or less agree.
As long as each and every one of us can agree that JP's Collision Chaos is GOAT.

For a beat-em-up, the Werehog parts were actually pretty solid. The only downside was the awful blaring jazz track that started whenever you ran into an enemy. The rest of the music was fucking great though, which is surprising because Sonic Team's never really produced slower music.

SMW has basic gameplay features that are similar, but saying that a mushroom making you grow and jumping over pits is the same thing as going from 3 to SMW, you're absolutely wrong. Sequel implies coherent evolution, not broad gameplay changes. DOOM is not a sequel, nor is Doom 3, and both games were blatantly branded as reboots iirc. That wasn't even the initial topic though, but your comparison was ass. 1 to SMW, let alone 3 to SMW feels like playing Mario Bros. to SMB1.
3&K 'is' a clusterfuck. I never said it was a bad game, but the way &K was implemented was a clusterfuck and 3 was simply a good game. Good sequel, but nothing to shit bricks over.
>>336063385
Traps are staples of the series meant to make sure you're dividing time between "gotta go fast" and "this is a platformer." Can't defend the glitchy stages, but 3D platformers at the time were full of glitches, making it more of the trend rather than an outlier. I'm preferential to 1, but both games have there ups and there downs. Some of the stages bog down, but a lot of them feel fresh and fun, like a Sonic game should always feel. I'm not saying 3 isn't a good fucking game, because it really is. I stated this in the first post I made. What I am saying is, it is not the greatest game for the Genesis or even in the Sonic series, and that train of thought literally spawned when newfags of the time hopped onto the nostalgia bandwagon.
Not sure what you both aren't getting. I love 3. I love the music, some of the stages are fun and memorable, and some aren't. The game just implements additions poorly and tries really hard to be the peak of the series, only to fall short. I ended up with a game, that while it's good, just felt like it was trying really hard to be part edgy and dark, part humorous and fun. It didn't end up leaving the mark on me that the other games did. We can cut this discussion here as, these are opinions; some people rage over 3, some people over the other games.

I dont know if you can do this on PS3, but on 360 you can make custom music playlists and most 360 games support custom music. I downloaded the music for the night stages on my 360 hard drive and set it to play for the stage. And it worked perfectly because it muted the game audio, but kept the sound effects so you can still hear crashing and hitting and shit. Only weird part was the ranking screen and the stage music was still playing but you know...its a good compromise when its all said and done

3&K and Ristar looked like Neo-Geo games in comparison
Adventure 2 is meh
>>336065064
Coherent. Evolution. A game can change genres if it coherently does so. A game can pull a blatant fuck around with the story if it logically evolves to that point. A game can do this. A game can do that. SMW is just not a sequel though, because it clearly starts a new series in the franchise. You're probably the fag who calls "Wario Land" Super Mario Land 3, because it's a sequel because just look at that number right? A game evolves, but you can't call a new series or a new game a sequel unless the changes made make fucking sense within context of the game, the story, etc.

Those are the slowest and some of the worst levels in generations. Speed highway and rooftop run are better, if every level was like those the game wouldve been better. But they were all shorter and more simple in design and setpieces compared to unleashed.

can you elaborate on this? i actually really like how sonic CD looks, i probably prefer it to 3K (although not to ristar, i'm not insane)
>>336066238
I can do pretty much everything thats not planet wisp in roughly 2 minutes, a little under or past. I can beat some werehog stages in unleashed in the same amount of time with a good run.
Going fast and exploring are completely clashing concepts and the boost gameplay engine isnt suitable at lower speeds anyway. Its better go all in with speed and spectacle which unleashed smartly did. Speed highway and rooftop run adhere closest to an unleashed level (ironic that rooftop run is one of them) and are way better for it. If you want your "exploration" stick with classic sonic or some alternate gameplay like treasure hunting or the werehog, slowed down characters who are great treasure finders. But dont fuck up good boost 3D levels because MUH EXPLORATION MUH RETRONESS IM COOL FOR ASKING FOR MORE OF THE SAME SHIT

MG is platforming fun: the zone, CN is all about speed and wacky platforming. Both are fun because they add that nice balance of platforming and speed to the game.
On a side note, I remember fucking hating Sandopolis act 2 as Knuckles because I could never fucking progress past a certain point. I don't know if I just missed a Knux only path or what, but I felt like I got soft locked somehow.

More widened areas that amount to nothing? More paths that youll go on once and never go on again once you optimize your path?
Generations was a massive disappointment compared to unleashed. The influence of colors really fucked up the game when it shouldve been full speed and boosting in 3D like unleashed levels. Ah well, maybe the next game will get it right

Holy shit taste batman
Marble Garden is bar none the best Zone in the series with the finest mix of Platforming,Speed and Exploration I've seen not only in a Sonic game but in a Video Game period
The S&K Levels(which are Sonic 3 Part 2) in comparison feel claustrophobic as hell(especially Lava Reef and Sandopolis act 2)
I swear Marble Garden only gets bashed as much as it does because of it's aesthetics(which I reckon are still good with some weird Aztec feel to it but not as good as some other zones in the game)
>can you elaborate on this? i actually really like how sonic CD looks, i probably prefer it to 3K (although not to ristar, i'm not insane)
The graphics seem flat in CD and at times they use recycled assets and feel lazily done(having the time travel version be mostly palette swaps doesn't help either)
Compare that to Sonic 3's graphics which have more of a deep/fuller look to them and Sonic CD feels underwhelming
>>336066967
With who's gonna win...
>>336067475
Its hard to say which is better because theyre both literally perfect for the setting they take place in. Unleashed has the best soundtrack in sonic games too, maybe of any game of all time. So many small touches and nods to a bunch of cultures. So many fucking little details, like the fucked up orchestra playing if you get an E rank. Unleashed is the best 3D sonic easily and its sad how that quality will never be surpassed

Agreed but Seaside Hill still has more to it and at least it feels like it tries
The first time I played CD I didn't get the hype.
It was short, easy except for 1 or 2 bosses, and filled with fluff that wasn't necessary to complete.
But now I love the game. It's my favorite sonic game. I understand now that it's not a game to just cruz through, but if you're in a rush, you still can.
I enjoy the concept of having to get a good future in every level. That means avoiding future posts, finding past posts, finding a way to travel back in time without losing the time power, finding the robot machine, destroying it, while at the same time holding on to 50 rings so I can get in the special stage and grab the emerald. Doing this in every act is a nice system that takes time, but when all the time stones are grabbed, I can just cruz through the rest of the game. All in the mean time being exposed to the wide range of music.
So yeah, I've come to appreciate it a lot more.

ah. well, i like flat and angular, and i found sonic CD to have overdone it with the shading and rounded corners
marble garden is bad. i maintain this. it's
- considerably longer than the stages that come before it
- considerably easier than the stages that come before it. i don't think i've ever died in it.
- lacking in actual hazards (enemies with interesting patterns, platforming hazards, etc) and makes up for this by being really big and open
- has signs with arrows on them because the designers couldn't figure out a better solution
- weird spinning tops that only really exist to transport you from place to place
- bland visuals and sound
would've been better if they'd gotten rid of the first half of the level to be honest
you criticize later zones for being 'claustraphobic' but i liked those zones more, they were challenging, there was shit going on rather than long periods of running with nothing happening

Not even close, id love to see what a playthrough would look like for you. If you have the pc/capture card for it for consoles, put up a standard playthrough so we can see how much you suck ass at the game.

>>336068046
Thats a good point but its just so fucking atmospheric. The first stage, apotos night. If you just play through the level with the music on it seriously feels like youre walking through the streets and alleys of greece at night.

I'm listening to the Saturn and Sega versions right now. Saturn is generic background music. If it was playing and you had never played Sonic 3D Blast before, you would never have known it came from a Sonic game. Sure the instruments are higher quality and its composed more professionally, but none of it has catchy melodies like most Sonic games have. These are not traditional Sonic tunes, and on their own they're pretty generic sounding. You can't even hum along to most of them.

>but it doesn't feel like it's even trying to be sonic.
I disagree completely
It really feels sonic-y to me
It feels similar to the JP OST of Sonic CD
Gene Gadget Zone act 2 on Saturn could easily fit Wacky Workbench for example
Sonic music has never been extremely specific and has always been loose in it's music...the series has done almost every genre out there
>>336070628
Well to each his own...I hear the Genesis soundtrack and I hear some overly produced bullshit with no cohesiveness whatsoever
>>336070691
>Dissing Gene Gadget Act 1 Saturn
Are you mad nigger?
>>336070691
>Gene Gadget was bad no matter what version you are playing
being this wrong

It sounds great. It's not as exciting as some of the other stages like Panic Puppet, but it still sounds better than the Saturn's version of this stage imo.
Most of the Sonic CD music wasn't that great, both US and Japan. Some stages were good, but CD overall didn't leave any lasting impression on me. I think it was just them trying to use 'real' music rather than actual Sonic music. Real music is ok, but you already hear it everywhere else. I listen to Sonic music for Sonic music, not 'real' music. And the 'real' music isn't even that great on its own. You know what had better music? Nights into Dreams. They used real instruments but also were able to make iconic and catchy tunes. I can still hum Nights music but I've forgotten most of CDs already except for some of the better tracks. Nights killed it with its music and it wasn't even a Sonic game.

the sonic cd soundtrack feels like a direct continuation of the ideas that sonic 1 and 2 had, it's got some lingering aspects of j-pop in there as well. the saturn one has more similarities to the music in later sonic games. it has more influences from european electronic music.

here, have some literal elevator music

Was Sonic CD your first Sonic game? If so, I think that's why you're so hard on the Genesis 3D blast. Most people started with Sonic 1, 2, or 3 and/or played all of them. Most people didn't have Sonic CD. I actually didn't play CD until I was an adult, Xbox Live Arcade. It's Sonicy the same way Sonic R was. It's got that type of techno-ish beat that was common on Saturn between the Genesis and Dreamcast era. You'd be in the minority though. Most people didn't play CD or Saturn games.

There's nothing J-Pop about CD
CD is straight Funk/Techno/Rave Music
>here, have some literal elevator music
That ain't elevator music
That's jazz music you'd hear in a 1930's movie...it's something only cultured people can appreciate you dunce

Why the hell is this the popular opinion?

No
Stardust Speeday US Good Future sounds like a fucking rollercoaster in space

I'm not saying it was bad, I'm just saying it didn't leave much impact on me. If it did, I'd remember most of the tracks, but I can only hum the mortal kombat-sounding one at the moment. I don't remember the other tracks aside from the theme song and the laughing Robotniks. There was another one that sounded like an old man laughing but like he was singing, and that's all I remember. Compare that to Sonic 3, or Sonic 2, or 3D blast, or even Nights, and I can hum most of the tracks from those games.
>>336071794
Because USA stardust is fucking great
>>336071686
>Was Sonic CD your first Sonic game?
Nope
I just think the 3D Blast Genesis soundtrack has a lot of bad tracks like Gene Gadget,Volcano Valley,Rusty Ruins and Panic Puppet
It has Diamond Dust zone and Green Grove which are decent but that's about it
It's nowhere near as good as 1,2 and 3&K
I consider 3&K and CD(JP) to be the best soundtracks from the series
>It's not popular therefore it's bad
kys please
>>336072032
You said "most of the weren't that great" which might as well be "that soundtrack was shit"

>I just think the 3D Blast Genesis soundtrack has a lot of bad tracks like Gene Gadget,Volcano Valley,Rusty Ruins and Panic Puppet
How... how does one come to this conclusion?
>>336072032
Truly the only CD track that stands out for me are the JPN Title Themes, Boss music, and Collision Chaos themes.
And I guess Sonic Boom too, but I heard that song and liked it separately a long time ago not even knowing it came from the US version of CD.
List yer top soundtracks in order, and post yer favorite song from each one.
1. Sonic Adventure - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJb5x6gWozc OR https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYn-ipADKJ4
2. Sonic Adventure 2 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QHfRLg_JDsc OR https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tjq1iVYiiE
3. Sonic CD JP - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SH_r_VYqyTs
>>336072073
I can understand that sort of reasoning.
>>336072204
Sorry but most of the Genesis soundtrack sounds like an overproduced to hell-and-back album which annoys the crap out of me
>>336072073
>It's not popular therefore it's bad
Now that's just grasping. CD and Saturn 3D Blast don't have the same type of music as most Sonic games. And with less people playing them, those tracks are going to be even less recognizable as being Sonicy. I didn't say anything about them being bad. If you're going to quote, at least post what I actually said.
>>336071765
right, because jazz is in straight 4/4 with a predictable chorus-verse-chorus-bridge-chorus structure, no improvisation, no brass and bad piano samples ;)
>sonic CD is funk/techno/rave music
doi you even know what these words mean?
>>336072204
I'm gonna have to second this.
I mean, Volcano Valley literally sounds like I'm in a volcano. When I see volcanos that theme comes to mind
>>336072159
How do you figure that. Not that great means not that great. Nothing about it being shit. Just wasn't outstanding. It wasn't bad or even below average. It's like inbetween or 'ok' or even above average doesn't exist here. Only absolutely amzing or absoultue garbage. It's not binary.
>>336072334
Top 3? Probably...
1. Sonic 3 & Knuckles - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8mM_IP4ByM
2. Sonic the Hedgehog 2 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbhX7XKgkDU
3. Sonic Adventure 2 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGGpZ6rVbOA
>>336072494
Adventure music is different from Genesis Music
Rush music is different from Adventure Music
Unleashed muisc is different from Rush
etc.
Sonic has done so many genres that defining something as "sanic-y" is not easy
For what it's worth 95% of Sonic games sound "Sanic-y" to me...even 3D Blast Genesis which I'm not a big fan of sounds like Sonic
Even fucking Sonic Spinball sound like Sonic
>>336072523
>All Jazz has to be improvised
Are you retarded?
You're right I forgot House Music as one of the Genres
Either way there's nothing remotely J-Pop about Sonic CD apart from the Intro/Outro songs

I don't know what you're talking about. There's only one Sanic-y sounding track. And it's this:

I love that circus-sounding music and those sound effects really remind me of music from old cartoons
The song sounds funny...it reminds me of the music from old Tom and Jerry cartoons
>>336073530
How many posts do /v/ threads get?
>>336072976
i simply listed some things that are defining characterists of jazz music and how the elevator music i posted doesn't contain any of them
are we talking about the same sonic CD soundtrack? again, i don't understand where you're getting house from, link me some house music that you think sounds similar to sonic CD. or some funk music
