Favorite Sonic Game

[Sonikku]

Discuss your favorite Sonic game here.

Personally, I like Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 the best. They both have great plots (which is a rare thing in the Sonic universe), decent graphics, and plenty of playable characters. The GameCube versions also have cool Multiplayer features.

[Fluffy]

Hmm, my favorite would have to be Sonic & Knuckles. The game was just so cool to me. Though I never beat it... but still, it was a fun game ^^ I would love to play it again.

[Shackel11]

Sonic Adventure 2,the chao feature,the good plot,and so on.

[Sonikku]

Oh, I forgot about the Chao feature. That was also a plus to Sonic Adventure 2.

[SonikkuShiyanagami]

I cannot decide which was my favorite. The Megadrive/Genesis/Game Gear series was absolutely outstanding for it's time. Then things kept getting better and better. The Adventure series were amazing. Especially with the Storylines, Music and Character choices. Then came the Gameboy Advance/DS Games and now we got the Next-Gen Sonic as well. Damn it, I can't decide which is my favorite...I guess I love them all as my favorites. (Yes, Kill me on the spot, I like Sonic R. Bite me.)

[Sonikku]

Sonic R was pretty cool, but its "sequel" Sonic Riders sucked.

[SonikkuShiyanagami]

Sonic Riders > Sonic R on my opinion...Sonic Riders wasen't half bad..Was a bit glitchy, but the music was nice and also the ability to play as Super Sonic was an awesome addition..Once I got used to it, it became my favorite game for atleast half a year. I loved the music. The f***ing (H)omochao announcer got on my nerves though.

[Sonikku]

Yeah, he was quite annoying in Sonic Adventure 2 as well.

[SonikkuShiyanagami]

Glad you agree. There's not a day I don't think of impaling that pile of junk with a pitchfork. Fictional or Not.

when doesn't he

[Natla of Atlantis]

I love Sonic Adventure 2 Battle without a question. It hate the newer games. They look so updated and ugly.

~Natla

[Anna]

I’d have to say Sonic Adventure 2, it was the game that got me into Sonic the Hedgehog, and one of the best executed games in the series. Though, I prefered the choas in SA1, the game play in SA2 was just better, and more adictive, longer too. I beat the main story of SA1 in just a couple of sit downs, while SA2 took about four months of effort get through.

[Natla of Atlantis]

Sonic Adventure 2 drew me in. I could beat that game in 7 hours. It was just 'Security Hall' with Rouge I believe, the 5 minute one, that got me killed a lot. I fucking hated that level. I liked Sonic R, but I didn't quite like Sonic Riders. Sonic CD got my attention too.

~Natla

[Anna]

Yeah, Secuity Hall got me too, and the second to last level with Sonic, I'd always die in the gravity room. I also had this habitual issue where if I got a E, or a D as my grade in a level I felt like I had to do it over. Rouge's Mad Space killed me with that habit.

[Natla of Atlantis]

The gravity room was super fun for me. I loved to do that. It was always my favorite part of the level. I just hate getting the A ranks for the time trialed Rouge/Tails speed chase levels, I can never reach Tails or the President in time. I mean, I can be right there, man, but time stops. I didn't even look at the time trial with Security Hall.

~Natla

[Anna]

I could do Tail's fine, that was a good level, I used it to get massive amounts of rings so that I could buy choa eggs. Rouge's though... I could never get anything above a C... >.> I still can't get all the emblems from that level, I can't get through it in enough time when trying not to run into walls. It is disheartening when you're like, three seconds away from finishing the level, and the timer stops. It always happens on that long streight strech at the end too.

Securty Hall is easy once you get used to the clues, and which one gose to which emerald's position, and with a little bit of luck the emerald wont be too far out of the way, or confusing to get to. I also find that with the time, unless you totally suck, you'll get an A, the bigest issue was finding one hundred rings with a good time.

[Natla of Atlantis]

I was better with Sonic/Shadow levels than anyone else. Knuckles/Rouge levels were always my downfall. I'm better at boss battles in any game than I am an actual level where you have to stratetically think it out, yano? 'S why I bombed the level.

~Natla

[Anna]

I always did the best with Eggman's and Tail's levels, though I found that Sonic and Shadows levels were the funest. I've always been better at Puzzle games, and turn based RPG's. I don't usually have to coordination to do platformors well, but I supprise myself sometimes.

[Natla of Atlantis]

I'm better at action and platformers. I suck with puzzles and such. Typical me. Some of the Sonic levels are tough for me that way.

~Natla

[Kursed]

i,ve gotten nearly all rank a with Rouge's levels, i think with Knuckles as well. i've got to check again next time i go to my nans which would be this saturday after feeding the school animals, hopefully.

[Anna]

i,ve gotten nearly all rank a with Rouge's levels, i think with Knuckles as well. i've got to check again next time i go to my nans which would be this saturday after feeding the school animals, hopefully.
I have all A's in Knuckeles, but I can't do Rouge's Mad Space, I can't beat the Time Trial, at All, and I think I have a D for it's grade...

[Natla of Atlantis]

I have all A's with Shadow. I have one B with Sonic, and it's irritating me. =P I remember with Chao, I had a bunch of new emblems for them, and I worked for a long time on Champ, and he turned back to an egg, and I'd just gotten the beach ball for the chao, and I turned it off and back on, and it deleted everything, even Champ. Kinda made me give up on the game.

~Natla

[Kursed]

poor thing. just like my cusion and Dino his chao, it died and never came back, his Angel and my Shadow are the remaining two that can still match Dino.

[Anna]

:S I had one really good chao, but... I erased him... so sad. He was a Shadow, he had no feet, and he wore a box on his head. So cute...

I always get a B in Sonic's "Pyramid" level. I always fall short by about 100 points, due to time, and when ever I try to rush through the level I fall off, miss and enemy or somthing.

[Natla of Atlantis]

Yep. I hate losing Chao. Especially after you worked so hard on them. I didn't want to lose him, and when I tried to prevent it, I lost everything, even the Chao itself. I was really mad. =P

That's like me in the Time Trials. When I'm running through most Time Trials, I can't really take my time, because I feel incredibly rushed. And you know what? Tomb Raider is starting to get Time Trials. Friggin' WEAK.

~Natla

[Kursed]

When I do time trails with Sonic's levels I'm fine with reacting fast (which give me the advantage when I'm versing other people) I just usually crash into the walls. Not with Shadow though always with Sonic

[Anna]

I never have time trial problums with Sonic, and Shadow... >.< It's just the treasure hunting levels!

[Legato]

Personally I'm torn between SA1 and SA2. I like both of them, but I'm not sure which I like more. SA1 had an interesting plot line with certain things only certain characters could do, very genius. I also liked in SA2 how you could play as Eggman.

[Anna]

Both of them had their good points. I just felt like SA1 was too easy, at least SA2's main story line was more challenging.

[Legato]

Agreed, but the part at which SA2 gets annoying is when there is too much going on for the plot to keep in check. mainly when they are up in space, the plot seems to get a little sketchy from side to side.

[Kursed]

the ark is fun dont mock it
it looks better in Shadow the hedgehog though, it looks more real life

[Sonikku]

Yeah, the plot got thinner as the game progressed, but I still enjoyed it.

[SonikkuShiyanagami]

This has turned from a "Favorite Sonic Game" topic to a Sonic Adventure series talk-about..XD Glad to see alot of people loved SA/SA2 as much as I do..Now the actual question..Do you play it on the actual Dreamcast or the Gamecube?

[Sonikku]

I have both, but I prefer the DreamCast version.

[Deano]

Fave Sonic game has to be SH2 for the Mega Drive/Genesis. Simple, long, and fun.

[Kursed]

game cube, ive never seen it or played it on dreamcast

[Steel Valor]

Heh Heh, I remember I used play SA2 all the time. The most fun I ever had was trying to make my first devil chao by torturing and neglecting it with a hero character. It was funny from my point of view, thats why its my favorite game.

[Kursed]

remind me to never give you any of my chao

[Anna]

I've played SA1 for the DC, I never finished it on the GC, I don't think. I'll have to check.

Sonic and knuckles was on the Genesis right? I've only played it on Sonic mega collections, but that was my favrite classic style sonic game.

[Steel Valor]

*FLASHBACK*
I'm playing as Sonic in Chao World using my baby chao Chronosis as a Dodgeball, throwing it against the wall then bouncing back to me over and over again.
*END OF FLASHBACK*

Yep those were the good ol' days. Chao abuse is fun, but i gotta say though it turned pretty evil in the end.

[Kursed]

yeah and never make it through the first reincarnation or death whatever you'll call it

[Raven]

For me, definitely S3K. I just loved everything about this game, levels, designs, music, storyline, transformation. Just every aspect of this game made me love it, this game has also withstood the test of time and I still play it to this very date.

[Steg]

I've always said Sonic CD for the Mega/Sega CD was the best, and i still stick by that, despite the fact i havent played it for months now.

Lately, i've been playing SA2:B a lot, in an attempt to finally earn every single emblem (unlike the way i cheated for the Dreamcast version). Having said that, i've also found myself playing Sonic Spinball and S3&K recently.

[Sonikku]

Sonic CD was great, but only with the Japanese soundtrack. The American one kinda sucked.

[Raven]

I am kinda ashamed, but I have only played Sonic CD two times, and those were very short amounts of time (30 mins). I am disappointed. D:

[Steg]

You should be. xD

I have the Japanese version of Sonic Gems Collection, which is good cause it has Sonic CD with it's better soundtrack, along with Streets of Rage and Bonanza Bros. I bought my original Sonic CD when i was on holiday to England a couple of years ago, and with it being the European version, it has the same soundtrack as Japan. ^.^

[Sonic_Rush]

Sonic Rush and Shadow the hedgehog were the best.

Sonic Rush because it was a awesome 3d game on DS
Shadow the hedgehog because of explosions,guns,3d,features.

[Sonikku]

Sonic Rush was alright. I heard that they're coming out with a sequel.

[Sonic_Rush]

Sonic Rush was alright. I heard that they're coming out with a sequel.
You mean Sonic Rush Adventure?

It might be a wifi game! So maybe you should make a forum for Sonic Rush Adventure Discussion/Wifi.

[Sonikku]

That would be cool. There hasn't been a new good online game for DS in a while.

[GaraaGX]

My favorite Sonic game is Sonic Riders because it's different and that's what makes it cool.

[Natla of Atlantis]

Sonic Riders isn't really different. It's just a sequel to Sonic R. If it were so different, it wouldn't be a sequel to, or spawned on by that. In my opinion.

~Natla

[Sonikku]

Sonic Riders is kind of annoying. I'd rather play the multiplayer in Sonic Adventure 2: Battle.

[Steg]

Sonic Riders is kind of annoying. I'd rather play the multiplayer in Sonic Adventure 2: Battle.

Forget that, it's so annoying i'd rather play Tails Adventure or Tails Sky Patrol. xD

[Kursed]

sonic riders is okay for a game

shadow the hedgehog is still my fav.
finished it and have 3 stars already

[nine tailed-ramen fox]

sonic three and knux debug mode.....................................super tails is sweet..........hyper sonic is weird..............super knux looks terrible

[Espio]

Yes... I enjoy playing Sonic the Hedgehog (Genesis) still on my Mega Collection and I love playing Sonic Rush as much as Heroes still

[Kursed]

I can't seem to get the chaos emeralds on Heroes. I got the first two, blue and green, and thats all

[Steel Valor]

Those are EAZEH!!!! What do you need help for?

[Kursed]

I cant seem to do the secret stages, I'm always getting caught by the bombs

[Steel Valor]

Tip: If you focus on the center of the screen you can see the bombs in your pelipheral vision before you start to get close to them. It should enought time to stay out of the way.

[Espio]

Sonic Riders isn't really different. It's just a sequel to Sonic R. If it were so different, it wouldn't be a sequel to, or spawned on by that. In my opinion.

~NatlaIt really isn't a sequel. If it was a sequel then Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and other characters would just be running. This game shows what time they're for the series with gadgets and extreme gear. Besides, I get enough running just by playing the other games.

[Kursed]

Tip: If you focus on the center of the screen you can see the bombs in your pelipheral vision before you start to get close to them. It should enought time to stay out of the way.

I acctually read this tip after I got the 6th emerald, two of them in a spilt second before time up. I give it a try for the 7th.

[InuYasha.]

My favourite Sonic game would have to be Sonic 2 from the SEGA GENISIS

[Alex Kaisentrifel]

I don't know, but I usually judge the game on a fun level.

Sonic Heroes was pretty fun, it just could have been a bit more challenging with different kinds of levels

[InuYasha.]

I really liked Sonic Adventure 2 as well that was fun except the parts I couldnt get past >.<

[Kursed]

And everyone has problems with at least one game...
don't ask me why i'm saying this but im severly bored

[InuYasha.]

Well yea I guess so but everyone has their opinion. I really liked some of the Knuckles stages in Sonic Adventure 2

[Ziggy]

i would say...... sonic rivals hopefully sonic rivals 2 will be better

[Shotgun da ferret]

Sonic Rivals 2? Didn't know there was one coming out.

[Kursed]

Ive seen pictures of it, it looks really cool but i havent even played the first one so how would i know

[Ziggy]

Sonic Rivals 2? Didn't know there was one coming out.

you didn't know? I saw the trailor http://www.sega.com/games/game_movies_pop.php?game=sonicrivals2

espio,s is in this 1:cool:

[Shotgun da ferret]

Crap I need flashplayer. Oh well I'll download it later

[Ziggy]

lol well when u see it yo will like it

[Kursed]

i wonder what the other mystery character is?

[Steg]

Sonic Rivals, in my opinion, is filled with massive ammounts of epic fail.

[Steel Valor]

Apparently my brother's ignorance has no bound. But still I agree with Steg, it is a massive amount of failure.

[AnnZie]

=o! I completely agree!! I didn't like Sonic Rivals... at all x_x... it was really boring and too hard to complete

[Black Knight]

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 to Genesis
Sonic Adventure 2 Battle
Shadow the Hedgehog
And Sonic Riders

Those are my favourite Sonic games, but my very favourite is Sonic Adventure 2 Battle.

[Tails 4ever]

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (Genesis)
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (Genesis again)
Sonic Adventure (DX - Gamecube)
Sonic Adventure 2 Battle (Gamecube)

The retro and adventure series were awesome. Adventure because the reasons said before - good graphics, storyline, etc. But also, in 2 Battle it tried to be cool and it managed it! Without having to sway towards any group of people.
After that, I brought Heroes (not a fav but not too bad) and then I heard about how bad the new ones were getting, so I haven't brought any more.

[Tgman12]

I say Sonic mega collection.The Genesis games are just really fun.end of story.

[Alex Kaisentrifel]

Eh, the games up to Heroes I believe would be good

I like Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic Heroes, and Sonic Rush

[Steg]

soinc unleshead because it is new and hav wearwolf in it and new game is best always

[Darkness]

I love Sonic Battle because it's a fighting game and it has plenty of attacks. Sonic Riders Zero Gravity because it has Gravity Powers, awsome gears, and 18 characters. I knew how to play by these characters: Sonic, Jet, Wave, Shadow, Rouge, Amy, Nights, Billy Hatcher, Silver, and Blaze. These games were cool!

[Orange]

Sonic CD, Sonic 2, Sonic Adventure.

[TCkaos]

1 - Sonic Adventure 2: Battle

2 - Sonic CD

3 - S3&K

4 - Sonic Adventure DX

5 - Sonic Megamix

[Darkness]

Sonic R too, it was nice. I loved to race with metal knuckles in the fourth stage. And he teached me the short cut while racing him.

[Steg]

Sonic R too, it was nice.Hell yeah.

People hate that game because those fuckfences at Screw Attack said it was the worst Sonic game ever made. What a load of shite.

The music was fucking awesome, and although the gameplay wasnt top-class, it was still a fun game. The fact Screw Attack took the piss out of the music was just ....... the fucking worst thing ever. If anything, the music from Sonic R was some of the best in any Sonic game. I mean, Richard Jacques for God's sake! He's one of the best video game composers out there, along with Yuzo Koshiro and Rob Hubbard.

To say it's the worst Sonic game ever because of the gameplay and the music is just fucking wrong. Those arsewanks at Screw Attack need to try playing Sonic Labyrinth, Sonic Blast, or that shitty Sonic Jam game for a Tiger console or something (not the Saturn version. That was awesome).

k rant over bye.

[E-123 Omega]

My favs r SA2B, Sonic Rush, but my all time favorite is Sonic Battle

[priji]

I think Sonic Adventure 2, best sonic games ever, because This battle was good because of the gameplay and the chao raising.

[~Rose Power~]

Sonic Adventure 2 was the best. I love the chao raising and the Multiplayer mode. Defenetly my most played game.

[sonic vs shadow]

Sonic adventure 2 of course!It fun raising the chao.(My best chao name is TAILS)

[sonic n tails]

Sonic adventure 2.The game is very adventure and thrilling.It also has a chao garden.(BEST CHAO:Silver)

[ZarinBlackheart]

Sonic The Hedgehog 1, 2, 3, S2&K, S3&K, Spinball, CD, SA: DX, SA2B, Sonic The Fighters(sue me.), Sonic 3D Blast, Sonic Rush, Sonic Rush Adventure, Sonic Battle, Sonic Advance series and Brawl, if that counts since..You know. I like about everything Sonic except for later titles, excluding rush. Also, don't forget some games on the Game Gear..I should go dust that off. Meh.

[shadowknux]

For me it would have to be the almighty Sonic the Hedgehog 2 for the Sega Genesis.

Although I certainly get enjoyment out of the 3D sonic games, for me sonic works best as a 2D platformer, and to be honest Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is a very difficult game to fault.

The music is absolutely spot on, the zones look great, the level design is fantastic throughout (I cant think of one level I didnt enjoy getting through on that game) and its just about the right length. There's a real sense of progression and the epic feel you get as you take to the skies in Sky Chase Zone, and launch the assault on Eggman's Winged FOrtress, its an unforgettable moment in gaming for me.

As a sonic game its impossible to fault and it an absoutely stellar platformer.

Yes, as you can tell, I like this game XP

[Balthamos]

Sonic 3 and knuckles, durh.

[Triple S3]

Sonic Adventure DX: Directors Cut. Not the original... The Gamecube version.
