Not with that shitty level design it ain't. Graphics and zone themes are still nice to look at though

Like I said, filtered.
Camden Gonzalez
That's not 3&K

>2D Sonic game
>Focus on exploring wide open levels instead of just getting to the end quickly
No. And don't tell me you can just ignore the time travel garbage, that's the main gimmick of the entire game and the levels were clearly designed with it in mind.
Owen Richardson
Compared to Sonic 1 or 2, maybe. But it doesn't hold a candle to Sonic 3 and Knuckles. Toei Animations can only get you so far.
Jason James
cool, good to know OP, I just got the game recently
Jeremiah Price
>Let me backtrack and explore for a sign post to go back in time to do awkward climbing platforming to find one specific capsule to destroy just to go back to the present and finish the level for a perfect ending.
Honestly CDis prety good if you ignore the time travel.
Music still great though
Aaron Mitchell
Go back, zoomer.
Samuel Collins

What is the point of going to the future in Acts 1 and 2? It seems just like a beginner's trap which you quickly learn to avoid. They could have taken the effort they put into those stages and made 2 more Zones easily.

this game literally takes less than an hour to beat. calm down, zoomer
Oliver White
which soundtrack do you like more?
Tyler Butler
is knuckles chaotix a hidden gem too or something now

You're looking for 3D Blast

>just to go back to the present and finish the level for a perfect ending.
You don't have to go back to the future once you destroyed the MS projector and robot generator, it's completely optional. Also the RG is completely locatable in the present and not the only specific thing to destroy, it's just only active in the past. Everything else you said is correct though, don't forget the retarded design choices like flinging you up into electrical circuits for touching the ground in Wacky Workbench or that shitty pinball boss at the end of Collision Chaos
It's shafted by most, and for a good reason too
Isaiah Carter
Or the robot generator in Wacky Workbench that requires you to get hit by "crushers" to get to.
Chase Cook
The fucking boss music in the US/EU version still gives me nightmares.
It coupled well with my Windows 97 PC that loved to crash / blue screen mid game with the sound effects still running in the background, sometimes glitching, sometimes not.

the best 2d sonic is 3&knuckles. there is no debate.

Jesus it's like some idiot with a level editor started spamming random shit like a 5 year old.
Henry Gonzalez

it's the easiest classic sonic game
Luis Moore
Better question, is it fair to rate Mania as better than the classic games when it owes a lot of it's success to stuff that it steals from those games?

You answered your own question, retard.
Logan Rivera
Is it fair to rate Sonic 2 as better than Sonic 1 when it owes a lot of it's success to stuff from that game?
Jonathan Anderson
It very clearly is not better than the classics in terms of level design flow, it's clearly a 6/10 game at best.
Joseph Torres
Wrong.
Logan Foster
Sonic 2 didn't steal entire levels from 1 you mong
Nicholas Mitchell
no, because mania does have flaws and while in general it's better than the earlier entries it's not perfect
Matthew Wright
Camden Lopez
>Sonic 2 didn't steal entire levels from 1 you mong
First of all Emerald Hill Zone is literally Green Hill Zone, I won't even say "with a fresh coat of paint" because it barely has that. Second of all, Sonic Mania uses levels that originally appeared in the classics but it has brand new level layouts, although yes there are a few setpieces in the Act 1's lifted directly from the original layouts it's as an homage, they're sufficiently remixed that only a fucking moron would say they're "the same level" in terms of actual gameplay design.
Gavin Murphy
definitely one of the best Sonic soundtracks imo, i'd rate the OSTs:
Sonic 2 > Sonic CD > Sonic 1 > Sonic 3 > Sonic 3D Blast (Saturn) > Sonic 3D Blast (Genesis) >>>>>>> the rest

Luis Rodriguez
Considering that the rehashed bits are generally the most disliked parts of the game, and the new levels and mechanics are the parts generally praised the most, I'd sat it's fair.
Owen Sanchez
Aiden Cook
Emerald hill has a completely different layout from Green hill, do you think they're the same because they're both hills?
Adam Robinson
So just like Sonic Mania?
Thomas Davis
Sonic 3&K > CD > 1 > Mania > 2
Sonic Advance > All
Ayden Morris
The thing about the Mania stages is that they start off as the original zones before rapidly dissolving into entirely different levels, Emerald Hill on the other hand is just it's own thing
Robert Allen
Its level design is so crap that using the main gimmick doesn't really feel all that fun.
Michael Rogers
has the most soul I'll say
Cooper Bennett
So what you're saying is, the levels are completely different?
Austin Torres
one of my favorite vidya soundtracks
Ryder Anderson
fuck off communist sonic
Andrew Roberts
>Naofumi Hataya doesn't compose much for Sonic anymore

>we will never get a soundtrack as groovy as CD's again
Aiden Perry
Now for the true pleb filter.
The US soundtrack.
Jaxon Murphy
The time travel stuff was the only thing I hated. The levels have too many stopping points and just fucks me up every time.
Oliver Sanchez
or the fact that ALL time traveling is literally not required if you just get all the time stones. instant good ending. the entire mechanic skipped. what a retarded design choice
Jacob Reyes
>filter culture
Justin Brown
Level design is admittedly trash when you compare it to other Sonic games, but the presentation and the amount of pizzazz it has is what made it stick with me.
I grew up with the US soundtrack which I found to be really unique and atmospheric for a Sonic game, I don’t think I would have appreciated the game in the same way if I played the Japanese/Europe soundtrack first.
It’s a shame that zoomers automatically disassociate themselves with the US ost and dismiss it altogether because the default option in all the remastered ports use the Japan/Europe ost.
Adam Harris
Most people just get filtered by the mechanics in the stages. Its a better Sonic 1 than Sonic 1, but unfortunately most 2D sonic fans are S3Ktards who hate thinking and just want to go fast around the spinny loops.
Noah Gonzalez
Kevin Rogers
What's the difference between the 2 sonic 2's? Is there a Sonic 2 gamegear?
Jacob Edwards
Logan Scott
Yes.

>1 over Mania

3&K > Mania > 2 Advance 1 = Advance 2 > CD > Advance 3 > 1
Joseph Harris

Brandon Fisher
1's better than CD, fight me.
Noah Baker
2 = 3 > CD > Advance 2 > Mania > 3&K > Advance 1 = S1 >>>>> Advance 3
Jacob Collins
Yeah, but you should play it on Master System instead.
Nathan Flores
They start out identical, and then change by combining shit with other shit, like Chemical Plant gets the bouncy floor from Wacky Workbench, and Flying Battery gets stuff from Wing Fortress and the lightning from Wacky Workbench.
Julian Reed
Rush Adventure is great
