Title: Rank your favorite Sonic games that you have played
Post by: Pokemonmaster888 on November 03, 2013, 01:57:21 am
What are your favorite Sonic games? Only list the ones you have played. If a port/remake/re-release is very close to the original or is the same game as the original, such as SA2B, and the 2011 version of Sonic CD, it is included in the same spot as the original game. For remakes that add a lot to the original games (like Sonic 1 2013 and Sonic 2 2013), you can choose to list them separately or in the same spot as the originals. Games that are different, such as Sonic 1 for Game Gear, should be listed separately. Spinoffs are included. List them from best to worst.

1. Sonic Adventure 2 (B)
2. Sonic Adventure (DX)
3. Sonic 3 & Knuckles
4. Sonic 2
5. Sonic CD (I own the 2011 PC version)
6. Sonic 1
7. Sonic Generations (PC/PS3/Xbox 360)
8. Sonic Heroes
9. Shadow the Hedgehog
10. Sonic Rush
11. Sonic Advance 2
12. Sonic Colors (Wii)
13. Sonic Generations (3DS) (I wish the game was bigger and in full 3D for the modern stages)
14. Sonic Battle (This was a cool game)
15. Sonic Unleashed (Wii)
16. Sonic 3D Blast (PC/Steam, which is the Sega Genesis version)
17. Sonic 4: Episode 2
18. Sonic 4: Episode 1
19. Sonic Rush Adventure
20. Sonic and the Secret Rings
21. Sonic Riders (I can't remember if I liked Riders better than Zero Gravity)
22. Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity
23. Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood
24. Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (Wii)
25. Sonic and the Black Knight

I plan on playing Sonic Lost World, the Game Gear Sonic games, Sonic Advance, Sonic R, and Sonic the Fighters soon. I have played Sonic Rivals, but I don't remember much about the game. I have only played the demo of Sonic '06. I'd like to get Sonic Advance 3 in the future.

I beat Sonic CD, and it is one of my favorite Sonic games ever. I see how people say it is the best Sonic game ever. The only problem I saw was that the stages are a bit short. The stages were very fun, the Japanese soundtrack is one of the best Sonic soundtracks I've heard. A lot of the songs are catchy and fit the levels well. I think that the Super Peel Out is one of the best moves Sonic had in any game. I would put it below Sonic 2 and above Sonic 1 on my list.

Also, I played literally 5 minutes of Secret Rings and I got bored almost instantly, and that was about three years ago :D

I recently beat Sonic 4: Episode 1 and 2 and I thought both games were pretty fun. Episode 2 fixed some of the physics problems that were in episode 1 but I liked both. I thought episode 2 was better because the music, graphics, and style of graphics were better than episode 1. I still really haven't played Episode Metal yet but I will sometime. I put them in my list nearer the bottom though because both games were short since they are episodes, and I thought the regular length games were more fun and had more to do since they were regular length games. I still have to get all of the Chaos Emeralds for both games though. I am playing Sonic Generations right now and it is a really cool game. I also see that the Android/iOS versions of Sonic 1 and Sonic 2 are very cool and I hope to be able to play them fully soon. I still have to play Sonic R, Sonic the Fighters, Sonic 3D Blast, and some other Sonic games, but I am not sure how I'll play some because Sonic the Fighters and Sonic R are not widely available on a lot of platforms.

I can only meaningfully rank my top 5, which are.

1. Sonic the Hedgehog (1991 obviously!)
2. Sonic 2
3. SADX
4. SA2B
5. S3K (this would probably be higher if I didn't suck at it)

The rest I can split into like and don't like

Like: Heroes, SatSR, S1GG, S2GG, Chaos, Adv, Adv2, Adv3, Rush, RushAdv, Battle, Sonic R

Don't like: 06, Unleashed, 3D Blast, Shadow

Anything else I haven't played enough to really judge, or have just forgotten about.

I just beat Sonic Generations today, and it is a really great game. All of the stages from past games were really cool, and the gameplay was tight and fun. The graphics were very good and the music from the new songs to the remixed songs was outstanding. There is a lot to do in the game and I still have a lot of missions to play and more unlockables to obtain. I have updated my list; I would rank it in 7th place, above Sonic Heroes but below Sonic 1 right now. I hope for Sonic's big 25th anniversary there is another outstanding game too!

Post by: Kirbymon30 on April 25, 2014, 04:02:28 pm
Bored, have a top five.

5. A big ol' tie between Sonic 2, Pocket Adventure (surprisingly good for such an obscure game), S3K (a true classic but a fucking marathon), and Sonic Advance
4. Sonic CD 2011 (AKA the first game I didn't suck at)
3. The Sonic 4 games, particularly E2 but they're all fun
2. Sonic Lost World (so addicted to this game, gets a bad rep for no real reason and the Deadly Six are the greatest new characters in over a decade. Go ahead, shoot me)
1. Sonic Generations (A really fun game even though I don't talk about it too much. I'd play it way more if I didn't suck at competing in it, but seriously, this game is PACKED with content and it's pretty much everything Unleashed and Colors did but better)

As for the other games...well, I enjoy most of the spinoffs (except Black Knight, Spinball, Labyrinth and sorta Secret Rings) though I haven't played them all. Most of the 2D sidescrollers are also really good, I even like Sonic 1 if I'm in the right mood. Colors is okay. I don't have enough experience with Unleashed to judge, but it doesn't interest me much. Haven't played Rivals or the Rush series yet and I don't think I need to.

3D Blast, SADX (except Tails story), SA2B, the majority of Heroes, Shadow and the majority of 06 can all go suck it. Tails spinoffs aren't too amazing either.

S2 > all > dogshit > S06

Aside from that, generally speaking, I like spinball better than most others do, both because nostalgia and pinball, and I think that SA is terrible.  otherwise I fall into the "2d 'til I die" sorta category, loving colours reworking of stages and the SAdva series.

Only game I haven't played is Dark Brotherhood, which is actually sitting in my 3ds waiting for me to beat Ni no Kuni and Eternal Sonata.

I beat Sonic 3D Blast today, and I liked the game a lot. I own Sonic 3D Blast for PC/Steam, which is the Sega Genesis version of the game. The gameplay was much different than most Sonic games, but I found it fun and not as annoying/boring as other people have said. The music was awesome, I liked all of the songs. The graphics were cool, and I didn't have a problem with how the game was presented. The controls were loose, but once you learned them it was easier to play the game. I used the control stick on my Xbox 360 controller, which made it easier to control Sonic. It probably is harder to play the game using a control pad.

I liked the game because I found the collecting aspect of the game interesting, and I thought that the difficulty of the game was pretty well balanced. Each Zone had different things to bring to the table, and the music fit the levels well. I did find some things annoying though, like losing flickies each time you got hit, and the positioning of Sonic on the level being hard to judge due to the camera angle. I would recommend the game to other people, because I think that people can have a fun time playing this game if they have the correct expectations. The game is not a fast paced platformer like most Sonic games, so it is a bit unfair to compare it to those games because it is so different from them.

I ranked Sonic 3D Blast in my list at 16th place, above both Sonic 4 Episodes due to the fact that both of them aren't full games. It was difficult for me to rank those 3 games, which is the other reason why I went ahead and put Sonic 3D Blast ahead of them. Overall, I think the game is a good game, but you need to have a different mindset when playing it. You can't really compare it to most Sonic games, due to the fact that the gameplay and goals of the game are so different from the other Sonic games.

I'm only going to list the games I've actually finished... which as it turns out is only 7 of them.

1. Lost World (Wii U)
2. Adventure 2: Battle
3. Colours (Wii)
4. CD (PC Steam version)
5. Generations (PC)
6. Heroes
7. Adventure DX

I haven't played much of the 2D games as we never owned any Sega consoles growing up. Played some on emulator for a bit and they seem fun, but I'm more into the 3D Sonics personally

1.  Sonic 06
2.  Sonic Chronicles:  The Dark Brotherhood
3.  Sonic Advance 3
4.  Sonic Riders & Sonic Riders:  Zero Gravity
5.  Sonic R

6.  Knuckles Chaotix
7.  Sonic 3D Blast (Saturn)
8.  Sonic Runners (iPad)
9.  Sonic Shuffle & Sonic and the Secret Rings
10. Sonic Boom:  Rise of Lyric

11. Sonic 1 (Saturn & iPad) [iPad version has unique features]
12. Sonic Advance
13. Sonic CD (iPad) [Tails Playable]
14. Sonic Battle
15. Sonic 2 (Saturn & iPad) [iPad version has unique features]

16. Sonic 3 & Knuckles (Saturn)
17. Sonic Adventure & Sonic Adventure 2
18. Sonic Heroes
19. Sonic Colors (Wii)
20. Sonic 4: Episode 2 (iPad) [Won't give me Episode Metal]

21. Sonic Rush
22. Sonic Advance 2
23. Sonic Colors (DS)
24. Sonic the Fighters
25. Sonic 4: Episode 1 (iPad) [Won't give me Episode Metal]

To be fair, Sonic 3 & Knuckles is a lot better with Classic Heroes, and I really hope that they make more teams for it.  I didn't have a Dreamcast when I was growing up, or a Saturn, or a GameCube, so a lot of these things I visited within the last few years.  As far as how I play, I really like how Amy plays in Sonic Adventure and Sonic Advance, so games where she's more like that are games I like more in general because I have more fun.  I really like games with lots of characters to choose from and that you can do with multiple people.  The iPad games are pretty fun actually. 

By the way, I hated Sonic Generations so much that I refused to keep playing it and still haven't gone back to it yet.  I also have Sonic and the Black Knight but unfortunately never really got into it.  I've also tried some of the older games but I don't feel they're worth ranking because they're kind of...yeah.  I'm not exactly going to include the GameGear because that's a completely different ballpark in quality.

I'm new on the site and this is my first post.  Please, let's make friends!

Now that the thread's been necromanced I might as well update my list as I have now finally had a chance to play and beat Sonic CD a few times. TBH I didn't think it was all that great, there are some things that I thought were interesting but overall I don't think it plays as well as the Genesis games did. Maybe if I'd been able to play it as a kid I'd think differently of it. It did have some nice music, both soundtracks were generally solid and still hold up today, and I had some enjoyment out of making a custom soundtrack for the PC version. I just didn't find the game that fun. However it still gets in above SADX and 3D Blast strictly due to the fact that I get motion sickness playing them.

1. Sonic Adventure 2
2. Sonic 3 & Knuckles
3. Sonic Heroes
4. Sonic 2
5. Sonic 1
6. Shadow the Hedgehog
7. Sonic CD
8. Sonic Adventure DX
9. Sonic 3D Blast
10. Sonic Triple Trouble
11. Sonic Chaos
