Donchi_The_Racoon Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Trial and error right?I meant to say it was okay but they pushed it when they made sa3, and i'm saying that it lacked origanality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaxSonic Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 I'd also like to point out the (hardly used) areas of the game where you can control sonic with the d-pad or touch screen (on the main island). The touch screen controls for this area work similar to the touch screen controls of Animal Crossing. What am I getting at? With some extra polish, this could make a good control scheme for, let's say, a Sonic RPG for the DS. That is... if they ever made one *coughBioWarecough* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pheonix Gamma Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 I c wut u did thar. Yea, I'm kinda surprised Sega hasn't done a 3d platforming Sonic. Granted, they've been busy with Secret Rings, Sonic '06, Rush, Rush Adventure, etc., but I'm still curious as to when they'll release it, because I think if they did, the touch screen would eliminate the shitty homing attack problems (or make them more apparent. I can see myself bitching about how I clearly tapped that enemy and watching Sonic fall to his doom for the umpteenth time) Also, I think the island controls are too slow to serve as an actual RPG (though, RPGs do go slow. Please let it be a realtime RPG like Super Paper Mario, sans the suck) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rael0505 Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Sonic Advance rocked my socks. I didn't like the carnival level or secret base very much, but the rest of the levels were sex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlazeHedgehog Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Sonic Advance 2 was my favorite. Sonic Advance was decent, but it felt really generic and uninspired; a collection of Genesis Sonic stereotypes wrapped around average level design. It never really felt like it's own game, to me; it felt like a cheap imitation of the classic Sonic games. Sonic Advance 2 really struck out on it's own path with it's own style. Sure, it was rough around the edges in a lot of spots - but the effort was appreciated and it was fun enough to forgive those rough spots. Sonic Advance 3 felt like it tried to blend Sonic Advance and Sonic Advance 2 while trying to simultaneously incorporate the teamwork theme carried over from Sonic Heroes. The whole game felt like a rushed disaster, with ugly level design, poor visual design (stop and look around, sometimes - you wouldn't believe how many misaligned tiles there are, especially in Sunset Hill)... it was just a mess. I could not be happier that Sonic Rush (and subsiquently, Rush Adventure) feel like they were broken from the Sonic Advance 2 mold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Frenzy Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 On my side, I didn't like sonic advance 2, and furthermore, i think sa2 was the beginning of the end of sonic. The lack of gameplay joined with an excessive speed is not a good formula. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRD Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 I beat the game, now working on the Missions. Let's face it, we're never gonna see Super Sonic playable again. =[ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Frenzy Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 it is playable. On last mission XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ligar Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 I used to love zipping around the level after collecting the 7 chaos emeralds (which was the ultimate high for most/everyone) and getting thoughs 50 rings. That is pure goodness. Too bad Sega took that joy from us... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 Yeah, and getting two sets of emeralds in one story reminded me of S3&K, and also lead me to the false hope of having Super Sonic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRD Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 Off Topic: Hey Spike, who's that in your avatar on the bottom left, fancharacter? On topic: it is playable. On last mission XD Barely playable, more like one set path, dodging or breaking rocks, and forward dashing as attacking. A minigame more or less. =[ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron C-T Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 I preferred Sonic Advance to Advance 2, simply because I wasn't flying right at crazy-wierd speeds. Although, I had no problem with Advance 2 at all. I didn't buy Advance 3, though. I absolutely loved Sonic Rush it had a lot of cool minigames and such built into the levels, I just hope this game smoothed things out a bit.

MaxSonic Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 I remember back when I first found Doomsday. It was on the horrible Sonic & Knuckles Collection for the PC. I collected the last Chaos emerald, and remembered that to get the other ending I'd have to play through the last stage again. So, I blew up the Death Egg, expecting to see an overly drawn out credits, when suddenly I turned Super Sonic! I literally shouted out OH SHIT! It was one of the coolest things I had seen done in a video game. On another note, I liked Sonic Advance 1 the best, thought 2 was pretty good (especially the bosses), and thought 3 needed the most work. However, everybody has their opinions.
