Sonic 3+K was the best Sonic game and I'm tired of pretending it isn't.
Sonic 2 is still better.
>>11997647This
>>11997647It's the best in terms of simplicity, as well as being the reason why classic Sonic has a "hold right to win" reputation. The game really falls off hard after Mystic Cave Zone.Sonic 3 standalone is the best Sonic game, with S3&K right behind it. The &K changes to 3 made the game feel too easy, but I suppose it was to smooth out the difficulty curve.I'd also rank Sonic CD above Sonic 2 just for it's explorative level design. I'd rank Sonic 1 about equal with Sonic 2. Sonic 2 is more enjoyable to play through, but Sonic 1 is more satisfying to beat thanks to its higher difficulty and actual platforming challenges.

>>11997645Found an odd piece of art by Greg Martin depicting Sonic in the Japanese style. It's the only non-mohawk, Japanese-styled Sonic Martin ever did as far as I know.
>>11997672>there must be an established consensus no matter what and anyone who carries a difference of opinion will be dubbed a contrarian
>>11997645S3&K was a bloated piece of shit>>11997647thats not saying much
>>11997645Isnt this a common opinion
>>11997835Too many people think Sonic CD is the best Sonic game
>>11997645>the cooler Sonic
>>11997841It's better than Sonic 2, that's for sure.
>>11997841who the fuck thinks Sonic CD is the best
>>11997854Sonic Mania devs perhaps, they made the game to look like CD instead of the superior 3&K.
>>11997730Well, what Sonic title do you like, anon?
>>11997865I'll forgive the Mania devs just because Mania is one of the best Sonic games ever made.
>>11997992Mania is certainly great, there is just something not feeling right with the control, I can't do spindash+jump reliably unlike in 3, as he sticks to the ground for too long after the dash, no matter how I try to time the jump.
>>11998151I'm not sure what problem you're having with it, since Mania lets you jump immediately when releasing the chargeDoing spindash jumps on the original Genesis games is very annoying because:>releasing down + hitting jump on the same frame causes the jump to be eaten, and you just roll>releasing down + hitting jump 1 frame after causes the spindash to be eaten, and the jump is in place without any speed
>>11998683Perhaps I just got used to 3's timing and just need some time to get used to Mania's.
The other game to compare
>>11997645"was"? So what is the best sonic game right now?
The Sonic 1/CD sprite sucks ass. The Sonic 3 sprite is top tier.
>>11997689Zoomers are born and raised on social media validation, they're absolutely terrified of going against any perceived consensus of their peers.
>>11997645I respect your opinion OP but I prefer sonic 2
>>11997835Used to be, but Sonic 2 took over the mantle in recent years.
>>11998748shit opinion
>>11997647fpbp
>>11998748Excellent opinion.
>>11997664Sonic CDs level design is just a thrown together square matrix sometimes, with places you roll down to artificially give you time travel speed. I only like some of the graphics, the new characters like Amy, and the music. The core of the game isn’t good.
>>12000648…What I mean is they kind of decided to make every level like Labyrinth Zone and Scrap Brain combined, instead of green hill. So I kinda hate it.One of the best levels in all of Sonic is Spring Yard. You have towering levels where you use momentum and springs, and the enemies or spikes do trip you up sometimes.
>>11997645Best 2D sonic: S3&KBest 3D sonic: SA2
>>11997979 Lost World
It's the best Sonic game that's for sure.
>>11998724GO GO GOGO GO GOGO
aside from the original trilogy, cd, and mania, what are some other 2d sonic games worth playing?
>>12002379Advance trilogy?
