Oh, that's a neat pic.

On a side note: I found this sonic picture when I got to the good future of Quartz Quadrant. Was this in the original?

When you look at the VRAM in QQ good future there are Sonic TV tiles that correspond with the Robotnik ones from the bad future, however, they're not used anywhere in the layout. Taxman added them in, gaining innumerable awesome points in the process.

So, were they in the original? Yes, technically, but also no.

I wonder, has anyone fixed the endings for the PC version yet? I really want the lyrics back in the JP credits. Someone did it to the opening a while back and I refuse to believe nobody has done it for the endings on the PC version thus far.

The video files can be found easily, and the videos are dual audio .ogv files that I can play easily. If there was a video editor with ogv support that could replace the one track, I'd think we'd be perfectly fine.

Does anybody know how to do this? I'll make a .zip of the files and send them to anyone who could do so.

EDIT: Here they are

I actually did this a bit back and didn't think to post it. Figured someone else had probably done it and that I'd just missed the link somewhere. Ah well, here you go.

If anyone wants to mirror it or anything, be my guest.

Awe, these aren't dual audio. The English versions no longer work in game due to that. Good thing I have the originals backed up in case I wanna watch the US versions.

But thanks- I knew someone had to have done this. Though, when I tried watching the good and bad endings in the visual mode, they got cut off before the end. Wonder if that's just me.

So I finally got around to playing this with Tails (well, currently playing) and I have to say this game is a lot more fun playing as him than Sonic because of the way the levels were designed. <_< Sucks that I still can't adjust the damn volume. Too bad Knuckles wasn't added too, but I'm glad Tails was added at least. Any idea why the picture isn't cleaner in this game? Out of all the pixelated games I play, this game is probably the least sharp of them all. :/

Yes they are, just change the audio channel in whatever you're playing them in.

Yeah, I'm getting that problem, too. Also, when I'm playing the video files by themselves, the video ends early but the audio continues. It happens in the opening, too. God damn, how can audio swapping in a video be so complicated?

Odd, for me, if I switch to the US soundtrack, the videos won't play. If there's another audio track, why won't it work in-game? :V

[Sara]

Hm. I do wonder how the video got cut off. I used the video stream exactly rather than re-encoding. I guess I better take another look at it.

You do have it on "Nostalgia," right? How does that picture not look clean to you?

I get that problem, too. This is one weird file they made.

Thank you so much for doing this. You are my hero.

Someone restored the vocals to the ending.

So I got this game a month ago for Xbox 360.

I even wrote a review of this game, It was really worth the 5 bucks, I would even buy it for a higher price.

I congratulate SEGA and Christian Whitehead for this game.

EDIT: I also bought the Steam version, but it strangely doesn't work in my Laptop with Windows 7, despite it working in my PC with Windows XP.

It says soniccd.exe has stopped working, anyone help? :V

So, I've attempted a run to get all the trophies in one go. Question: Will getting all the time stones (which I've just done) stop you from getting the "Savior of the Planet" trophy?

[gold lightning]

I believe it will unless you destroy all the metal Sonic projectors and robot generators BEFORE you get the seventh time stone. Which means you have to get that last time stone after beating Metallic Madness Act 2 if you want a chance at getting all the achievements in one run.

EDIT: I knew The Taxman had already addressed this earlier and I just found it.

Bit of forewarning here:
You can't cheat and get all the Time Stones to destroy the teleporters by default. Sonic has to find them. So either you'll have to do this in a separate run of the game, or get the last Time Stone on Metallic Madness Zone 2.
