Same here, though I didn't bother with Mean Bean Machine.Dr. BUGMAN wrote:Hey man, growing up alls I had was a NES and a Genesis, the latter of which was bundled with Sonic 1. So it was my first one. Somehow we got Sonic 2 as well. In fact, I'm pretty sure I played them all in release order.
I have. It came with my Mega Drive. It's still my favourite of the series.Neo wrote:I have to wonder how many of our bitter, CLASSIC members actually played Sonic 1 first.
Err, I wasn't counting any of the spin-offs. The pickings were slim growing up.cjmcray wrote: Same here, though I didn't bother with Mean Bean Machine.
Hmm. It looks better, but it still has enough problems to be a turn off. Three things, mainly: the whole "stop dead in mid-air" thing, uncurling after rolling off the floor and the old "sticky feet" problem which they somehow still haven't fixed.j-man wrote:Video of the Wii version. Apparently it's also a slightly newer build. The physics don't look nearly as fucked as they were when I played it (you actually gain speed when rolling!), some of the more useless boosters have been removed and the soundtrack has been souped up with some lovely new instrumentalization. Happy days!
Sorry, you can go back to your daily business now.
I absolutely do, mate, and believe me when I say it drives me up the fucking wall.Neo wrote:I mean, it looks sorta okay, but then you go a few years back and play one of the Advance games and think, what the fuck. Curse those games' design however much you want, but why is it that they were able to have the correct physics then but not now? You get what I mean?
This quote insults the game enough, so no commentary.My suggestion would be to expect few to no physics changes, so that if or when you do notice any minor updates in the final game, you’ll appreciate them. I think this is better than people really expecting them to change too much, and conversely expecting something different than they get when they download it. Keeping expectations realistic is the key.
That's what I mean! It sounded no different! :( Maybe I need to relisten but it still sounded like the same fruity synths to me. If there was a difference then they just made them cheesier.j-man wrote:The tunes are the same, the instrumentation is markedly different.

It's never good when someone from Sega tells you to lower your expectations.Kogen wrote:UPDATE:

We can only pray that this tragedy is over by Christmas.Interestingly, all levels in a zone are available for play upon unlocking the zone. Balough insists this will eliminate the arbitrary difficulty curve that has marred previous instalments by allowing you to select the levels you want to play, perhaps even avoiding ones that you have trouble completing.
YES! NATURAL, ORDERLY PROGRESSION THROUGH LEVELS IN A PLATFORMING GAME IS ARBITRARY. So now they're magically inventing problems for the PREVIOUS games out of thin air to cover their own ones now? Or does he have no clue what "arbitrary" means?arbitrary difficulty curve that has marred previous instalments
