Yes.

Can't believe there are people who still defend Heroes to this day

>>154048596
It's /lgbt/

Right? Sonic has never had a good game, but some are notably shittier than others.

The /co/ media is

God I miss it. Warts and all, I miss it. Sure, it was messy, but it was infinitely preferable to the sanitized, lifeless state of things now.

>Sonic has never had a good game
The first one from 1991 is decent enough

>>154049600
You didn't read these from 1998 to 2006 if you believe that.

>>154050398
I've read the whole thing through multiple times. I sat through The Slap, DESTINY, 20YL, Geoffrey, all of it. I still want it back.

No. Absolutely not under any circumstance whatsoever that any conceivable goalpost could be shuffled to fit any arbitrary criteria.
The character that appears in comics and cartoons has no place on the comics and cartoons board. End of discussion.

>>154050510
That's my point. You read it long after it happened. You didn't experience 8 years of utter boring dogshit in real time.

>>154048596
Sega made a character that perfectly exemplified the rebellious west so well that their own country doesn't like him.

>>154048596
Hell yeah he is

And then they killed everything fun or interesting about him in a desperate attempt to make Japanese people like him. And failed.

>>154050849
Nah, there was plenty of good stuff in the Dark Ages. It just gets overshadowed by the infamous shit. The space arc, off the top of my head.

Naoto Oshima's absence in 2 is evident as early as the first stage. This looks worse than Green Hill

Didn't he get arrested for insider trading?

No that's Yuji Naka

It's like you didn't even read the post.

>Sonic 1 is better than 2

>>154051764
Whatever. If your experience ruined it for you, that's your problem.

>>154051778
Sonic 2 has more glitches, less platforming, worse enemy placement, worse special stages, Metropolis Zone, a boring plane stage, and no art direction by Oshima

This is bad game design. The stage is unnecessarily long as it is, and they make it worse by adding this unskippable shit. It's like they forgot about the 10 minutes limit

>>154052365
>worse special stages
lol get filtered
>more glitches
You can't even land on spikes in Sonic 1 and Sonic sometimes jumps without spinning
>less platforming
Autist complaint
>worst enemy placement
Sonic 1 has worse hazard placement. The enemy placement in Sonic 2 is only really queestionable in Metropolis, which you already listed
Speaking of, Sonic 1 has Labyrinth, and Labyrinth Act 4.
>and no art direction by Ohshima
Ohshima's rainbow vomit is overrated by hipsters.

Sonic the Hedgehog is as /co/-related as Nico Yazawa and Laura Haruna, so yes.

>>154052428
I miss her. I wish i could get isekaied and be her friend

>>154052638
You really think the special stages in 2 are better? Why?

>>154050849
Hell, even binge reading it, its still slog to get through.

>>154053494
Because the base gameplay of it is actually fun unlike pukebag zone.
Running in 3D in the halfpipe and collecting rings is cool.
The special stage theme in Sonic 2 is cool.

Sonic 1s is not fun. It's annoying and not even worth it to go for.
