ussexplorer Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 First I only had sonic 1 and sonic spinball. I hate sonic spinball so I really don't play it. Sonic 1 was not really that interesting but defenetly playable. Then I picked up sonic cd. The music, levels and extra goodies got me hooked. My next pickup was sonic 2 and still being hook I played it up to the end. I recently picked up Sonic 3 and currently working my way through that. Then the other day I picked up sonic and knuckles. I don't know if it is just the fact I never completed sonic 2 even though I got all the way to the end. That a few years ago I picked up sonic cd and my brother ereased the memory so I had to start over again (Sonic CD is still my favorite). But I just cannot play sonic and knuckles. I cannot seem to get started on Sonic 1. I find myself wondering between sonic cd and sonic 3 because I already started those games. Perhaps one article was right about sequells. If they are to much the same they get boring. If this is the case then why sonic 2, 3 and defenetly the sonic cd is doable? Thanks, ussexplorer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thx1138 Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 I agree about Spinball. Have Sonic & Knuckels but not bothered with it. I used to play Sonic 2 a lot. Got to the point where I could get loads of continues and extra lives, and get to the end without dying once. I even managed to defeat the robot sonic with some rings left over, only to find to my dismay they were removed when I fought the giant robotnik at the end. Depsite all the lives and continues I had aquired I never managed to defeat him. Never got all the chaos emeralds in the bonus levels though, I think 3 was my limit. After that dissapointment, I've never really bothered playing much Sonic again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avid Fan Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 I used to love sonic back in the day (93) but when I tried to play them again last year, the magic was gone. I remember me and my neighbor would play spinball for hours. Then I got the game again, and I sucked royally at it. WTF!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bratwurst Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 I never get tired of the 16-bit Sonic games. Well, except for Spinball, but I didn't like it from the start. Every year I play through the others at least once though. Excellent level design all around that never drops pace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariDude Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 I like Sonic Spinball. It is a fun game to spend an entire afternoon playing. While I still play Sonic 1-3 from time to time, I tend to play them on an emulator that allows me to save the state of the game. I don't have the patience anymore to play the entire game through in one sitting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisbid Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 sonic 3 and Knuckles is an outstanding platformer. the two games by themselves are only above average, but lock the two carts together, and you have one hell of a game. but i still like sonic 2 the best, and sonic CD is great if you ever pick up a sega CD system.
