Guys, I think...guysguysseriouslyI think I might...GUYSI think I hate Sonic the Hedgehog, but only his sprite from Sonic 3. Why did they ruin him?
fixed it for you
>>12556167>gets bigger hands and feet for each installmentwhat did they mean by this?
>>12556174Thanks, I hate it.
>>12556167This board is full of contrarians, people who think sonic 1 was the only good sonic game, people who think it went to shit after 2, people who think only SA1 was a good sonic game, you're all fucking wrong. Every sonic game before unleashed is a masterpiece.
>>12556189It comes in waves - give it a couple of years it'll be sonic 1 that's garbage and 2 & 3 the great ones
>>12556235I like Sonic Heroes because of the song.
>>12556235My favorite sonic game is the most hated and always has been that way, and yes it's fucking CD. I wish people would actually soften up to that game, instead of circlejerking the same 3 genesis games.
for me, it's 1>3&K>CD>2
>>12556267>most hated and always has beenCD being the undisputable best game in the series was a pretty common opinion back before the Taxman port released, and some time after it. Not many people challenged that claim, because somehow most would-be players were filtered by having to set up the Sega CD BIOS in Kega Fusion.
>>12556267it has level design issues but i love it. it's really a vibe. i usually go the transporter destruction route for the good ending cause the past levels are super comfy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGMEo7IcdC8
oh and it also has the best aesthetics of the classic games
>>12556167He stopped having fun in 3:(
>>12556385bruh started smoking crack
>>12556167is Sonic 3 the leftmost?
>>12556465
>CD being the undisputable best game in the series was a pretty common opinion back before the Taxman port releasedpeople just say anything nowadays and have repeated it so many times they actually believe their own bullshit
they all look the same
>>12556489>cyan sonicI hate this stupid hue-shift meme trend among pixel artists.
>>12556729SonicCD is fucking great. I played it for the first time last month and felt like I was part of an exclusive club because I never knew anyone with a segaCD. My kids love it too and it seems to have better replay ability than the other 3 but maybe I'm just not a huge sonic fan and I'm also not bored of it yet.
>>12556739how dare u
>>12556789I don't believe you have kids. Enjoy your shitty time travel mechanics, alone.
>>12556752I think they made him a lighter blue because they were going after the CD cutscene look
>>12556752i like it. bitch. if they reused a sprite you'd be screeching about how they lazy they are
>>12556752I don't particularly care for the sprite but there's nothing wrong with hue shifting. The Mana games are hue shifted and it's some of the best pixel art there is.
>>12556789CD has a neat concept and introduced some great characters but the game actually feels like ass to play. I really tried to enjoy it but even Sonic 1 without the spin dash is more fun.
>>12556812Lol what a bitter faggot nigger. You sound overweight, underwhelming, and insecure.>>12556946I wish 1 had the spin mechanic. I'm surprised I haven't heard of a romhack that does it.
>>12556924>hue shiftedI don't understand what you are discussing. A slightly lighter shade of blue? What is his complaint about?
>>12556959>I wish 1 had the spin mechanic. I'm surprised I haven't heard of a romhack that does it.Virtually every rerelease since Sonic Jam already added spin dash to the game.
>>12556967Hue shifting is when you make shadows and highlights a different hue instead of just darker or lighterFor example here the tree shadows are blue instead of just dark green
>>12556971I'm clearly ill-informed and out of the loop. I have never owned a genesis, and I'm definitely not a sanic guy but thanks for the information, I will look into this.
>>12556489Always liked the shade of blue for Mania
>>12556167They wanted to make Sonic 3 a 3D game at first, and made that model you see on the title screen and in 3D Blast for it, but after realizing that they couldn't make it work, they settled for making the sprite take cues from the model instead.
>>12556826Funny because the animation cels don't look like that. It's just an off color telecine
>>12557340>this is what they took from you
>>12556924>that>pixel artPeople need to learn the difference between digitized art and hand placed pixels.
>>12556489I like the more saturated palette from SegaSonic
>>12557367Please elaborate and explain for the class
>>12557370based SegaSonic Bros poster
>>12556959I bet you’re going to brag about having a Japanese wife next, too. You’re a meme.
>>12557367Shut up nerd before I dunk your head in a toilet.
>>12556959>I'm surprised I haven't heard of a romhack that does it.Actually, there's an amazing romhack of both 1 and 2 called "Sonic Classic Heroes" which adds all the modern movesets, including dropdash.
>>12557384We're here to talk about games, nigger. You're the online equivalent of a disney adult screaming that there's kids at the park and still seething hours later. Shut the fuck up. (Also my wife is white because I'm not a race mixing faggot. You sound brown coded)
>>12556826They definitely used the concept art for inspiration.
>>12556167whats the differencethey all look like sonic to me...
>>12557656Mid-to-late '90s would have been more appropriate to the era they were aiming for IMO
>>12556752But they have always been hue shifted
>>12556189Nah, Sonic 06 for all intensive purposes was the last REAL sonic game. After that it turned into furry shit
>>12556489>>125561673 at least looks "next gen" or like a step forward than having him look the exact fucking same for 20 fucking years in a row. Imagine if Mario still looked like his Mario 3 sprite in mario world, it would look fucking retarded.I like 3s sprite
>>12557849>Sonic 06 ... was the last REAL sonic gameHow embarrassing.
>>12556174SONIC DOESN'T HAVE BLUE ARMS
Since this is a Sonic thread: why the fuck is Sonic 8-Bit so fucking mean. It's not like it's hard, but the contrast of just how much spiteful shit there is in it compared to the 16-Bit games is crazy.
>>12557984Like, the game gear one?
>>12558019NTA, but Game Gear Sonic 1 was well-designed since the levels were modified accordingly to fit the Game Gear's lower resolution. Sonic 2, on the other hand, did no such thing and straight-up ported the Master System game without taking the Game Gear's resolution into consideration.
>>12558019Played it on Master System. It was just a lot of like, little things. Some leaps of faith, lives being put onto springs to bait you, vertical points of no return being super aggressive in Jungle Act 2, Sky Base Act 2 having no rings while having stuff like the turrets being silly with picking an angle while loading in or the bomb enemy that literally only exists to make the spike hallway be a tight squeeze, or similarly no rings at all in the Robotnik fights while occasionally taking cheap shots while otherwise being piss easyIt's a lot of small bits that I think that if I played it as a kid I'd be rightfully pissed the fuck off
>>12557376In pixel art, each detail down to the individual pixels are placed deliberately and consciously, rather than as a brush stroke. This ow-the-edge drawing I did uses a GBC palette but I wouldn't consider it wholly "pixel art" since most off it was done with brush strokes.
>>12557849Generations is a good game and has the nod to the better games
>>12557376>>12558052Inversely, this piece would be considered pixel art as every placed pixel on it was a deliberate act at the pixel level, you can even see some tiling in the sewer brickwork.It's really a matter of the scale you're working at.
>>12556167What do chili dogs even do?
>>12558140They're suppositories.
For your consideration: the DIMPS Sonic games were better than the main entries in the 7th generation
>>12558140they make you shit and fart
>>12558053>>12559138I don't get the appeal of generations, it's just 4 bosses, doing the same level twice, and helping out your friends with side-missions to proceed with the rest of the game.

>>12556341>CD being the undisputable best game in the series was a pretty common opinion back before the Taxman port releasedMaybe i'm just suffering from the phenomenon of subjective validation because I only hear people say this is the worst sonic game and argue the worst points possible to say that it is.>>12556353I never understood the "bad level design" meme because I always thought it was the freest sonic ever felt in his own game, you can use the physics to shoot yourself into the air and soar through every level, do sick platforming to get up to higher places or even use the environment to your advantage to make time traveling easier. It's just better in my opinion, some of the best levels in the classic series. I guess people are just more comfortable with 2 where the levels are tailored towards just blazing through them, while CD level design expects you to be somewhat focused.>>12556959People on this site tend to be bitter if you like any game, especially one that is seen as the black sheep. Tis is the site where people come to hate video games after all.
>>12556946CD gameplay feels ass because you are probably trying to use the spindash, the peelout is just better and gives you the max speed instantly but you just don't get the perks of invulnerability.
>>12556789>felt like I was part of an exclusive club because I never knew anyone with a segaCD.I got a Mega-CD just for Sonic CD and it ended up leading me to discovering so many great games in turn, so thank you Sonic.
