The same way Sky Babylon seems to be Angel Island and Babylon Gardens, Blaze to me feels like she could be sort of a Sonic/Knuckles counterpart at the same time.
Blaze is nothing like Shadow. She was much more willing to trust and make friends than Shadow ever was. Shadow was vengeful and angry, Blaze was cautious.
Devin S. They butchered shadow because shadow is a different shadow. Haven’t you played Sonic Adventure 2. That Shadow died and another one was in heroes which is the one we have now
1. You can press right right when the "GO!" text appears at the start of a level for a speed boost off the launch platform 2. You can actually beat all of the Johnny races with only the first wakeboard upgrade so uh... git gud?
I really don't think you can. He just rubberbands past you at the end no matter how far ahead you are. It happened like 3 or 4 times in the b-roll footage. And I did figure that first thing out, it just wasn't included in the video.
I 100% promise you that you can because I know I have done it. I honestly didn't even know there was a second upgrade until this video, so its possible, just brutally hard and requires near perfect play
In that case, it might as well just be impossible without them since even searching about it online people seemed to agree that the upgrades were necessary. Kudos to you on doing it without tho.
I think a big problem with Marine is they don't really do a good enough job touching on her strong points, its implied she's super smart, creating her own water bike at the start, as well as her improved one at the end, alongside Tails having her (and Sonic) assist him with making and upgrading all the vehicles. They focused way to hard on her being a joke character then anything, and clearly, despite someone like me not minding her, there are people that find her very annoying. Then there's also her weird power at the end of the game, I'm in the camp of people that believe its some kind of water power, to go alongside Blaze's fire powers, but we'll likely never know now. Lastly she promised at the end of the game to be a much better person, and they could have made her a more likable character if she returned, showing clear character development... and they could have easily put her in a team with Silver and Blaze in TSR, since everyone and their mom for years has brought up how if they wanted a trio team for Silver and Blaze, Marine makes a lot more sense then randomly slapping Vector onto them and ignoring Charmy and Espio are his team mates.
@@woobgamer5210 either that or Espio And Charmie are on vacations or something? I haven't played Team Racing or Free Riders so idk if they are playable in those)
Honestly, I find it criminal she isn't a playable character in this game. Like it made sense that only sonic and blaze were in rush because they were the core of the story, but here marine is way more focused on. She could have a moveset like Amy's in advance one, not being as good as others but making it up with other strengths (I'd love if she didn't have boost but was naturally faster than the others because she always rushes in). I have no doubt people would have liked her way more if that was the case. (Also doesn't help she never really gets punished by her wrongdoings as well, makes it feel like she never really grows)
Ok look, I know everyone hates Marine. But think of it this way. Without her, we would never have the greatest drawn face in comic history courtesy of Shadow! Besides that, I actually like the levels more than Rush 1 cause they are much more forgiving. I can't recall too many times I died to an unnecessary bottomless pit. I didn't mind the padding, I found it to be harmless but unnecessary nonetheless. But fuck those Johnny races. The bosses are better designed as very few are waiting games, and as a whole, I actually go back and replay this one more than Rush. But I'll probably never start from scratch again so take that as you will. However, let's be real, Colors DS is the best Rush game. The only thing it's missing is Blaze.
Marine was really the game’s comic relief, so she wasn’t meant to be taken seriously. Of course she’s a kid and can’t contain herself, as she goes adventuring with Sonic, Tails, and Blaze. Plus it’s all but stated that she’s bored just staying on Windmill Island and wanted to one day travel the world.
Blaze was created to basically be a female version of Sonic that also has the same kind of responsibilities as Knuckles, is a completely different kind of animal, and has a tragic back story like Shadow but isn't quite a complete edge lord (not that the real Shadow was even ever meant to be an edge lord). She's also one of the better characters of the series because she immediately gets character growth and thankfully didn't regress her the same way they did Tails, Knuckles, Shadow, and maybe one or two other unlucky kids who got the 2010s simplification.
Seems as though Blaze, Silver and Eggman were the only three major characters who didn't get flanderised by the 2010 recast. That being said, I'd love to see the former two get their time to shine once again.
The worst thing about this game for me is it is the last Rush game, I know colours DS exists, but what makes the Rush games for me is the Sonic and Blaze dynamic. It's now 2020 and we haven't seen any more meaningful interactions between them. We need a continuation of Rush badly
I did consider the idea of a Modern Mania (combining classic and Rush gameplay) in which Sonic, Blaze, Marine and Silver team up to repair the damage Eggman Nega causes after he harnesses the power of the Jewelled Scepter to reshape the multiverse in his image. It's not fully Rush, but at least it's something.
Random fun fact: Blaze is actually a year younger than Sonic, being 14, while Sonic is 15. Blaze being 14 also means she's Sonic's youngest rival, tied with Silver and Jet.
I feel like the hate on Marine is a bit Unjustified. Yes, she's very easily excitable, but that's bc (like she says in the game herself) she's legit never even been off of her island. And all she's ever wanted to do was explore the world. Also, she's a literal child, who finally met new people ever since she was first born. So it makes sense how she is the way she is. I love her as a character, but do understand how she can be annoying
Plus the fact that Marine seemingly doesn’t have anyone to reign her in (The coconut crew really didn’t seem like they tried hard in that regard). I won’t say that she isn’t bratty or annoying. But it makes sense for the point your mentioned and more.
I really like your thumbnails and seeing Blaze just sitting there looking done with everyone is really funny. Also I love Sonic Rush and Sonic Rush Adventure. Some of my favourite Sonic games of all time. 🦔👍
"or if you like aimlessly boating around, be my guest" Gonna be honest, I just finished replaying Rush Adventure yesterday for the first time in years, meaning I did not remember where Johnny was, what I did remember is that Johnny's locations are marked by a shadowy circle in 7 spots on the map and that's how I found all his races. The only thing I needed a guide for was finding the three hidden islands needed for Sol Emeralds.
honestly i thought of blaze as sonic's inter-dimensional counterpart back during rush. speed-based characters, sonic guards the chaos emeralds while blaze guards the sol emeralds,and both are tuned to an element. we know blaze is linked to fire, but for sonic, if you look closely at the little gray text above the stage names at the start of each stage when playing as sonic on rush, it'll mention sonic using wind.
Makes sense he kinda would have to in order to not burn up due to friction. Blaze can get away with it she has fire powers so a natural resistance to heat
@@Emily12471 well yeah, basic physics, every action has an equal and opposite reaction, air manipulation is the only explanation for maneuvering midair when he's got nothing to push off of
This game is realy interesting, it's a Shame that Marine did not come back or Become that much of a memorible characther in the Sonic series... Well, Glad i have The Rush Series, and belive that the people that played this game liked a Lot too
Ristar is pretty fun, the best way I found to play it was sonic's ultimate genesis collection for the Xbox 360 (That's the latest collection with Ristar I know of)
I mean, I think it's important to remember that Eggmanland would be the size of a planet; Robotnik's idea of what civilization under his rule would be seems to a themepark/casino that blankets the entire universe.
the lack of Hideki Naganuma in the composer's chair for this game leaves a pretty noticeable difference between the soundtrack in Rush and Rush Adventure
I do not really understand why marine is hated. We never heard marine's voice. I actually like sonic 4. I prepared myself, i do not care if i get flooded by comments critcizing my existence.
I absolutely adore this game, the levels, the music, the c h a r a c t e r s. Especially Johnny and Whisker, best part of the game in my opinion. Sega please bring them back.
I remember playing this game a whole lot when I first got my DS that it was the only game I ever played on it for like 2 years. It even became the first game I ever played on my 3DS XL. :3
This was my first DS Game. I loved it so much. Bought it a few months ago to replay it and it definetly holds up as one of the best 2D Sonic games in my opinion.
I saw this somewhere on Instagram, if there’s a fast blue hedgehog and a lazy purple cat in one dimension, then there must be a lazy blue hedgehog in blaze’s dimension.
Honestly, I love Rush Adventure. The backgrounds for the levels to feel a bot more cartoony and realistic, but I also think that it feels a bit bigger than the original in terms of scope and size. All the islands have different themes that make each one feel unique, the music's more tropical island vibe really shines, and it's cool that to play as either Sonic or Blaze, you don't have to back out to the menu to restart or replay the same levels to progress two seperate stories. The Emerald races are challenging and a lot of fun, and even though Marine is annoying, she's likable enough that I didn't want to see anything bad happen to her. It's also nice that even though Sonic and Blaze are friends after the first game, they aren't always on the same page so there's still a bit of conflict between the two. I don't think it's better than the first game, but it feels a bit more unique when compared to Sonic Rush or Sonic Colors DS. Also, New Venture is a banger.
This was the first official sonic game I finished and I loved it granted it might just be nostalgia and the fact the only thing I could compare it to is flash games
I’ve started replaying this game recently. The story was good (if a bit lighthearted and comical). Each character and their traits complimented one another, wished they did more with Marine, but we can save that for her next appearance. The levels were fun, vibrant, and unique: each boss perfectly complimented the levels they’re faced at (Ghost Rex in the jungle, Ghost Whale in the arctic, etc). As far as the theme of this game, We never had a Sonic game that involves sailing the 7 seas and it makes sense to use the 4 watercrafts to traverse the map (Wave Cyclone’s my favorite). As far as any down points - I do agree with you about replaying stages for materials, Sol Emeralds, and the Johnny races.
Funnily enough Marine is Actually referenced by blaze's Triumph dialogue in sonic colors DS Sonic asks how Marine is doing. Blaze responds getting into trouble as always.
I agree that Blaze is the counterpart to Sonic, but hear me out here: She’s the combination of Sonic and Knuckles. The speed and clothes of Sonic and the role of Emerald Guardian from Knuckles. Also Blue plus Red equals Purple.
When I picked this game up as a kid I was excited because I loved the first Rush game. However it really threw me off by the Phantom Hourglass mechanics but I pushed threw as I just loved the stages and the music. Unfortunately I got to the last stage and for whatever reason kid me put it down I can't remember why. I still have my copy from Toy's R Us all the way back in 2007 maybe I should go back and finish it.
Man, I'm upset that I didn't know this game existed years ago when I played Rush. I definitely would like to give this one a try, even though I think I'll still prefer the original overall. But how could I resist the chance to play as Blaze again and learn more about her world? Sign me up!
I have a theory. Sonic rush is the aftermath of 06. Blaze must've been sent to the others dimension. Since the events were erased in 06 she doesnt remember sonic or tails.
I feel like Sonic Rush is better than its sequel, for not only the lore but also the gameplay. I don't know what makes me think that, but it just *is*. I don't really know what else to think. P.S PLS REPLY YOUR THOUGHTS!
@@Garrulous64 You took the words right out of my mouth. I'm sucker for 14 special stages, just like Sonic 3 & Knuckles though, instead of missions. I really wonder how special stages will make a comeback in Sonic games...
Tbh, if you actually bother to explore the sea map and find the hidden islands you can get materials without having to replay stages much if at all. I mean sure it’s not the most ideal thing, but it IS called rush ADVENTURE. Exploring the seas is a natural part of it...for this game anyways.
I got all of the emeralds before the upgrades to waterbike. I never knew there were upgrades because I was trying to get all of the emeralds before the final fight. I am a Sonic prophet.
The thing with this game is that it encourages replay value. Even if I didn’t have to play those levels again, I probably would’ve ended up replaying those levels anyways.
All Sonic knows is: Chillidogs, speed and W A R.
I hate how right this comment is
“None of this is good Vector, that’s why it’s called war” -Knuckles
HB- FSR Didn’t Silver say that? Lol
Misttixx I think it was tails
Knuckles said that
"You know how they say too much of a good thing, can be bad?"
*Grabs pitchfork*
"Well this isn't one of those things."
*Puts down pitchfork*
I like the idea of a robot t-rex deeply disturbing sonic, and thus making him repress the memory
Sonic's list of fears:
Water
Orcas
Robotic T-rexes on tropical islands
I’d say Blaze is more a counterpart to Knuckles rather than Sonic. The whole stoic guardian thing kinda sells it.
The same way Sky Babylon seems to be Angel Island and Babylon Gardens, Blaze to me feels like she could be sort of a Sonic/Knuckles counterpart at the same time.
Blaze is nothing like Shadow. She was much more willing to trust and make friends than Shadow ever was. Shadow was vengeful and angry, Blaze was cautious.

It even became the first game I ever played on my 3DS XL. :3
I now realized that all the raccoon like characters people say are from hell, like Marine and Tom nook to name a few.
I find it amusing when Marine says "she'll be apples".
this is one of my favorite sonic games but I wish the grinding was less prevalent
I want a whole video that's just the isolated voice clips of Johnny.
I don't know why
I really like the 3d models. It just gives it way more life.

You know what the craziest thing is. I didn’t upgrade the bike a second time to get the purple chaos emerald. I didn’t even know you could do that.
I love this game so much i don't know what happened to my copy but i wish i had it back this game was so much fun and i love the challenge I had
Honestly sonic's missing out, his dimensional counterpart gets pyrokinetic powers but sonic, he's just fast.
Sonic rush adventure was my first sonic game so I will always have a place for it in my heart

You could argue that they read kind balancing to be the job of the Jeweled Scepter
Ah... yes the game that almost convinced me that Australia was ruled by a cat.
When I picked this game up as a kid I was excited because I loved the first Rush game. However it really threw me off by the Phantom Hourglass mechanics but I pushed threw as I just loved the stages and the music. Unfortunately I got to the last stage and for whatever reason kid me put it down I can't remember why. I still have my copy from Toy's R Us all the way back in 2007 maybe I should go back and finish it.
I actually like Marine.
I agree!
Man, I'm upset that I didn't know this game existed years ago when I played Rush. I definitely would like to give this one a try, even though I think I'll still prefer the original overall. But how could I resist the chance to play as Blaze again and learn more about her world? Sign me up!
I have a theory. Sonic rush is the aftermath of 06. Blaze must've been sent to the others dimension. Since the events were erased in 06 she doesnt remember sonic or tails.
Ahh I love my sonic one peice
I loved watching the speed runs of this game
I'm gettin mad Dragon Ball vibes from the thumbnail
My favorite handheld sonic game
Sky Babylon And Blizzard Peaks are my fav Sonic Rush Adventure levels
Crazy part is I had no idea Rush Adventure existed until 6 years after its release
That's a good game and this is a good video
I feel like Sonic Rush is better than its sequel, for not only the lore but also the gameplay. I don't know what makes me think that, but it just *is*. I don't really know what else to think.
P.S PLS REPLY YOUR THOUGHTS!
I think the original Rush is better. It doesn't have any tedious inbetween minigames, and the soundtrack is better as well.
@@Garrulous64 You took the words right out of my mouth. I'm sucker for 14 special stages, just like Sonic 3 & Knuckles though, instead of missions. I really wonder how special stages will make a comeback in Sonic games...
@@benjaminamudoaghan i wish they'd reused Rush's method for the Sol Emeralds. Those special stages were a lot of fun.
@@Garrulous64 But the seventh was from the pits of hell! Never again!
HOLY SHIT HE WASN'T KIDDING
Oh man sonic rush adventure was like my first sonic game I ever played I think, and I loved the game
Tbh, if you actually bother to explore the sea map and find the hidden islands you can get materials without having to replay stages much if at all.
I mean sure it’s not the most ideal thing, but it IS called rush ADVENTURE. Exploring the seas is a natural part of it...for this game anyways.
Fun fact: Blaze is a fusion of Knuckles and Sonic
Loved the video
Fun fact this was my first sonic game
I like the thumbnail
I got all of the emeralds before the upgrades to waterbike. I never knew there were upgrades because I was trying to get all of the emeralds before the final fight. I am a Sonic prophet.
The thing with this game is that it encourages replay value. Even if I didn’t have to play those levels again, I probably would’ve ended up replaying those levels anyways.
Qotd:Sky Babylon is my favorite level
this was the first rush game and sonic ds game I've played. I love this game even more than rush.
I literally just finished that game, and I broke the Big Swell fight on my first attempt
johnny and jet sounds like a tounge twister
15:06 Maybe Toby took and reworked it, since UT came after SRA.
Scott?
@@Garrulous64 Sorry mistakened for FNAF
Daniils Onukrans I’m low key insulted that anyone would confuse Undertale with FNAF
Well to be honest both them are pretty much same person with different games under their belts. It's sometimes confusing who's who games are.
