Played Sonic 1, 2, and 3&K

I guess I'll play through the three of em today since I'm home sick with nothing better to do.

 

I played through them all again about 2-3 months ago. I found Sonic 1 surprisingly difficult, and Sonic 2 gave me a little trouble in places. Playing Sonic 3 & Knuckles, on the other hand, was like riding a bike.

One thing I've been trying lately has been the Game Gear games. I hadn't played a few of them, so they are pretty fresh to me. I've struggled mightily with them, particularly Sonic 2, which I find ball-breakingly difficult. :v:

 

That would be cool. The biggest problem I have with the GG games (at least, the ones I've played enough to form a solid opinion) is the wonky physics. They play a little too "floaty" for my tastes.

 

Well, I'm going to play through them all right now. See you later!

 

Times of me starting all of those 3 games (including shitty palette hacks, as they are basically the same as the original): At least 5000 times. Times I played the first zone/act: 2000 times. Times I played through the whole game: 15 times (probably less).

Maybe I should start to increase the last number.

 

You're kidding, right? I can't speak for many people here, but I don't think a week goes by that I don't complete at least one Sonic game -- the original in particular getting a lot of play since the time it takes me to complete is a great way to measure the time it takes to bake a 12" thin and crispy pizza in the oven. :D

You should play until you can all-emerald complete in one sitting, it's very rewarding.

 

Somebody port Sonic Advance 1, then. =P


(please)

 

Ha, I'm the same. I play a classic sonic game damn near weekly. Sonic CD and Sonic 1 definitely get the most play from me.

 

You guys are crazy fucks, I have no idea how you're able to get all the emeralds. I can't get more than like 2 in Sonic 3k, blue spheres is too hard.

 

Can't say I'm one of those people who plays through the classics on a regular basis, though I have been playing through Mega Collection recently.

Did a whole sitting of Knuckles in Sonic 2 yesterday. The reduced ring requirement in the special stages really makes those more tolerable.

 

Fun games, I can beat all with little to no difficulty. :D

Actually beat Sonic 1 and 2 under an hour (not trying for all emeralds) on real Genesis hardware not too long ago.

Fun

 

Oh yeah, I play Sonic 2 and 3 all the damn time. I can beat Sonic 2 in about 35 minutes if I'm trying these days.

 

I Rushed through CD, and Sonic 1. I should probably do 2 and 3...

 

None of the classic Sonic games give me any trouble in the least, zones, special stages, bosses and all. Sonic 1 is still fun even without a spindash, Sonic 2 starts off fun but gets boring for me by Hill Top Zone, Sonic 3 and Knuckles is fun all the way through except for Act 2 of Sandopolis Zone. If I had to give one game that gives me some problems (I know it's not one of the games you mentioned initially) it's probably Sonic CD. I just haven't bothered committing how to get to some of the purple pod things when you go back into the past.

The one thing that bothers me is how easy all of the bosses are in the Sonic games, with the exception of the main bosses in Sonic and Knuckles.
