What was your favorite part of Sonic Superstars?
Sky temple stole the show for me. My favorite soundtrack (even with the genesis drum snare), aestethic and level design... Lovely all around
the skins. I love alternate costumes in games. I just wish there were more of them
Trip!!!
Lagoon City stood above the rest IMO. The level aesthetic is my favorite in the game, and is one of the more original zone concepts.
Trip and Pinball Carnival act 1
Trip is my new fave!!
This review is basically how I feel for this game to be honest! So this is a great review!
So one thing: yeah the shooter stage has nothing to do with the ice stage, but it was pretty much just to be served as a "Throwback to Sega History" stage, which this deep cut is even crazier: Fantasy Zone starred the character Opa Opa whose design somewhat inspired the head/outline of Fang the Hunter!
It saddens me that Sega mascots that predate Sonic have been fading into obscurity. I love Fantasy Zone and I wish more games were made for it. And while I don't care much for Alex Kidd, trying something new with the character would be really fun to see.
I'll never get tired of hearing how you say "Mania"
Fantastic and well-paced review, Cooper! You always bring your personality to the table and share your passion - love it. I'm also very partial to Superstars overall. It's not perfect, but damn does it get so much right. I'll be replaying this one just as often as CD, 3&K, and Mania for years to come.
Ian actually confirmed that "The End" in Egg Fortress Zone isn't actually The End. It's just one of the moons orbiting Sonic's Earth. Which... is oddly the first time I'm hearing about Sonic's Earth having multiple Moons.
So does that mean that the SA2 moon still exist and the moon we see nowadays is just one of the many moons
@@thecoolbroscoolman4672 Maybe? Iizuka tried to say a while back that we simply happen to see the moon's other, non-damaged half whenever it's since been in view. So something presumably rotated the moon so it's other side is facing the Earth and we just happen to always be in the exact right position to only ever see that half of the moon whenever we can see it.
Clearly the advent of 'multiple moons' is a relatively recent decision, but at the very least it can give some definitive closure on that matter.
@@thecoolbroscoolman4672Honestly that would be a satisfying retcon.
I like Superstars more than Mania. I love the levels, I like that the bosses that are actually a challenge and can't be bodied in 2 seconds flat, and I like the playable characters.
Overall, I think it's great and I don’t get the hate for it.
59:30 MAN! You hurt me by saying that dud,since sonic mania is my favorite sonic game of all time
Yeah but you have to admit it’s way better. Sonic mania is kind of overrated Tbh it’s mean it’s kinda a bunch of mess
This game is... Good! But it could've been better. It feels rushed in several areas (story, music and multiplayer being the main culprits) and has some weird difficulty spikes, but it has a strong personality and a lot of great ideas. There's a lot of potential for a sequel that irons out the flaws, this is already arzest's best game and they can only go up from here!
Unlike sonic rush
In my opinion its like a 1st game in a video game series it ha's good elements and ideas that can be expanded and better in the mext game I myself got some good ideas
@@erwinljungberg6318 I hope that's the case
Yeah Sega got some great ideas but they need to 1. Make the gimmicks feel natrual to the level the same way Mania did it 2. Make the soundtrack sound more modern and again have the same focus as mania 3. Take advantage of it being 2.5 make some 3d advantages like in Sonic Generations but better 4. Make better bosses and more exitment overall Sonic Cd made a good metal sonic boss fight and good atmosphere around it a new 2.5 d sonic game has the potential to perfect it I also find Superstars to not introduce Fang like they could Fang is a cool concept but they didn't introduce him that good at all in my opinion there are alot more thst I could write but yeah
Really enjoyed the review! Especially the part at 20:57 that genuinely made me laugh. lol. 👍🏼
cool video
They really need to make another game like Mania, but without any old content remixed and everything completely new.
good review, big coop. you're a superstar
Pretty good review! Just want to point out how funny "screw the introduction, let's get to the game" sounds when you're already seven minutes into the video.
54:02 You can also unlock Metal NIGHTS, for the shop, if you get a Perfect Bonus in the Bonus Stages.
The shoot em' up boss fight in Frozen Base Zone is a reference to Fantasy Zone, a game franchise that predates Sonic and even Alex Kidd.
I really love that franchise and I do recommend you give it a try someday. (If you do, try to play the Fantasy Zone 2 remake as your first one for your mental health's sake)
Huge Trip's story rant incomming:
I really enjoy this game, but I feel that the level designers knew how to make fun levels (such like bridge island and speed jungle) but can't find a good middle ground when it comes to difficulty and fun together, Seriously.
Still playing Trip's story as of now, heard how hard it was and thought that It would be fun levels of hard, only to see spikes put in specific areas to fumble yourself.
The egg robos are awfully placed, I'd be climbing a wall with Trip only to get blasted through that wall by a egg robo who I didn't see offscreen.
And oh god the enemy spam, I hate spikeballs now, I hated how they were the enemy you had to go through in cyber station as the squid forms because I'd be blasting through just to get hurt from them, only to see there would be millions of them in Trip's story
When I beat Trip's Story, Im not going to touch it again unless I feel ballsy enough.
Yeah, I really enjoyed the base game but I was frustrated with some of the stages in Trips story, the true final boss I’m still trying to beat but it’s pretty cool and I like the boss theme. 😅😊
Great video! You have pretty good points honestly. There are a lot of parts that i wouldn't agree since i feel like you haven't gotten very deep into it. This game is quite underrated
7:18 I think there's some confusion Tyson hesse didn't direct the animated cutscenes, they were still done my Toshihiko Masuda and telecom Animations he did direct the prologue Short but his involvement ends there
Things I liked: the graphics (I love this games art style), playing as sonic, tails knuckles and Amy and the level design
Things I don’t like: Trip’s story, all the music Jun recorded and THOSE FUCKING BOSS FIGHTS 😂😂
I will be getting this for Christmas. I can't wait to play it and have lots of fun.
Great Review
Oh yeah, Tails Doll counts and the Golden Badnik for Pinball Carnival. Each zone has one, and when defeated, they give you 20 or so medals (?). You have to collect one, and finish the stage without dying for it to count. Dunno that was mentioned or not (it’s a long vid), but I thought it was neat.
46:11
After taking a few days to beat Fang, I actually like this boss the most for timing everything. Idk why, it’s still a bit unfair, but I like it.
That purple moon isn't The End. Egg Fortress just casually drops that Sonic's world has multiple moons
My only issue with the bosses in this game is that the invisibility window is way too long, and worst, not clear. It doesn't end when the boss stop flashing, which is really weird because you have to guess when you can attack the boss again.
Other then that, I liked the bosses in the game, even the very long and hard one.
And the soundtrack is great I find. Yes there are better songs then others (as is the case in all Sonic games), but it's not a deal breaker in any mean. They are all good songs I found. Better than the new songs from origins for sure.
Also, I had to subscribe to you channel because you mentioned Uniracers. I just had.
Juns compisitions are good but he limits himself to try and replicate the classics. Imo i think rintaro soma should make classic music since almost all of segas sound team inclusing ohtani have no clue how to do genisis music anymore. But rintaro knows how to compose classic music better than tee lopes imo and he should definitely be tje main composer for the mext classic game if arzest makes one.
Its really funny how divided people are on this game
great review. I agree superstars was really good
37:46 Ian Flynn said that wasn't The End so don't worry yall.
To me, the Eggman final boss was actually the best boss in the game. Yes it is a derivative design and somewhat copies Sonic&Knuckles but I expect a challenge. Speaking of, Sonic&Knuckles offers a checkpoint and another one if you go into Doomsday, so it’s pretty stupid that Superstars can’t do that.
Yeah when issues are put aside.
Superstar's just an amazing game!
37:47
That’s obviously not The End imo. It’s just a random planet in the background.
Jun likes the vaccum vst he uses for most of his sonic 4 synths and while its fine its still incredibly cheap sounding which is why i think that he should just get better instruments for his songs, even sonic 4's soundtrack sounded better imo but the best song he made for this game was definitely golden capital act two and he composed bridge island zones themes with tee lopes and the main theme of the game. If jun works on another classic game he should try using a better vst imo but overall i think the soundtrack is good not as good as mania but definitely solid
5:00
I'm pretty sure the existence of a brand new 2D Sonic game was the worst kept secret ever but what caught me off guard that it was a classic game I thought it was going to be a modern game with all the leaks but I guess the word play is a modern classic
20:56 I thought I was the only one who thought if the Omni Droid
I hope in the dlc edition the game will be much better than already is .
I wish when you select a power but don't use it the power acts like a shield when you get hit
Yay I'm not the only one that loves this game I actually prefer it over mania
1:02:41 what a good review on sonic superst-wait what!? What did you say in the end🤨
I hope they patch the bad instakills before I even try this game (they won’t)
Will you be playing sonic dream team?
Can you review pizza tower? You dont have to but you should check it out! It was at SAGE. And just want to add, the level W.A.R. does the countdown gimmick way more better than Press factory Act 2.
39:02 I almost thought you said something else
"a very confused..." im sorry WHAT?
ohhh "direction"😅
I saw RadicalSoda played this game in his two livestreams and I’m gonna be honest, with the $60 price tags and flaws of this game, I don’t want play this.
I like that they made this game anything other than 2.D though.
Nice to see another RadicalSoda fan
I loved Uniracers
"the pretty decent success of mania" what do you mean DECENT??? I dont know if its just me, but there feels like some mania hate is baked into that sentence.
😃: Finally, someone who genuinely cares about this game!
I like how they are Sonic fans that trash this game, and they are positive and passionate Sonic fans that love this game. The worst part of the Sonic fanbase is the negative Sonic fans I do not consider "fans". Cause I don't think they actually care about Sonic at all.
The problem is 90% of the sonic franchise is actually really bad so fans that are more critical have no option but to complain about nearly every game. The only really really good mainline games in the past 15 years have been generations and mania, and surprise surprise no one complains about those games outside of relying too much on nostalgia
This game is my favourite classic sonic game. Sonic mania was fine but it was kinda…Mid and the same. Anyway people’s hate against this game is pretty trash Tbh cuz most of them are like “mania is better” “classic sonic needs to die” and I hope it gets more love
No wonder Sonic news died after forces. Sega was making like 400 games
6:25 Well. No.
Lmao one kid online is better than nobody 🤣🤣
3:24 I didn't bother it. One. It sucks. And two. I kept Bad-Mouthing Squenix at Every opportunity. Especially BANKING TOO MUCH ON FF7! 😠🔥
And Three. The PC version of Sonic Superstars had Denuvo DRM to screw with my PC. And It's coming from me who BOught Lego 2kDrive, Dirt 5, and Burnout Paradise Remaster. Which ALL HAS DENUVO! Why DRM sucks so much in today's Gaming World?
Future Mr right here I was informed that Lego 2K drive as of late has no Denuvo anti-Tamper on the later updates. So is now safe for me to play the game.
Hot take... sonic 4 episode 3 🤐🤐
The game might not be as good as mania but it's definitely closer to mania in cuality than sonic 4
@@MRSHREKJR i agree 😎, it definitely lands somewhere between sonic mania and sonic 4. To me its like if sonic 4 episode 2 was improved quite a lot. But still nowhere near as good sonic mania.
Sonic mania is mid Tbh. If it was sonic 4 episode 3 it would’ve included knuckles as a boss just like it was gonna happen until it got *cancelled* I look at it as like the true sonic 4
AC 1 AC 2
*"NAO-TO" not "NAY-OTO"
I'm not even 2 minutes in and your already spouting out several inconsistencies and just false facts and that really makes me up set
what?
The spelling is a bit off, you didn't need to put a space between upset, you spelt 'you're' wrong, and I wished you'd explain a bit better what made you upset to begin with. Overall this comment would make your teachers upset and you should go back to school. D- (Go see your teachers after class)
The game is good, but is not $60 dollars good.
Also take a shot everytime he laughs while talking.
?
😂
>Mania that low
You're boosted.
I like some levels but really hated some things. 1. The camera is too close. 2. Some levels are uninspired or too long / repetitive. 3. the lack of checkpoints in the bosses. The final boss especially. Too long and with bottomless pits? 😮🙃 I refuse to play frustrating games so I will sell it to second hand buyers 😂
I wanna like this video but you didn't draw your thumbnail so I gotta give this a thumbs down. Sorry dude. Do better.
This game is mid asf.
I wasn't all that hyped for it
Same tbh.
Disagree
You hate the game cuz you think classic sonic overstayed like I saw you say in another video of the comment sections but let me tell you something, it has not overstayed its welcome.
@@Stickboy321Go It is not the only bad thing about the game, lol. If the level design was at least good in the second half of the game and in the whole Trip's Story, then maybe I might have liked this game more. Also, yes, he has overstayed its welcome.
