    SA1 was unironically a better game. The Knuckles levels weren't absolute torture, Amy's levels were great, Big's fishing levels were fun, the Gamma levels and storyline was actually touching. Plus that Super Sonic bossfight at the end. Plus Tails could actually fly. Plus those overworld areas man.

    But also apparent that they did not have the time or money to do anything because the company was going down
    Still some of the best art work and music Sonic Team ever put out, they were on some next level shit in the early to mid 00s

    The mech and treasure hunting sections haven't aged well, especially since they were done better in SA1. The mech sections as Gamma were fewer but a lot of fun and Gamma controlled better. The treasure hunting sections as Knuckles in SA1 was far better because all 3 emeralds could be tracked at the same time. In SA2, only 1 can be tracked at a time so you can easily walk right past one of the emeralds not being tracked while looking for the trackable one
    But the speed sections are still top tier here (as they were in SA1). The only reason you'd think it hasn't aged well is because you're not playing them as intended. The levels aren't fun when you're not using Sonic's abilities, most notably his spin dash, light dash, grinding (+crouching on rails) and bouncing (as Sonic) to make the stages faster and the game more enjoyable

    The Sonic and Shadow levels were good. I'm not biased but the none of boost games really do it for me and I didn't bother to buy them myself cause they lacked SA2's feel. Tails levels were okay but they could've expanded on the Mech concept. It would be nice if they had improved on the SA1 plane missions to bring them back to SA2. What they can even do with Tails and Eggmam now is give make Metal Slug, Blaster Master or Starfox type levels for them.
    Chao Garden was really fun side content and I had too many hours in there. Im sure there are many ideas from Mobile games that they can implement into the Chao Garden on top of the Karate and Racing modes they already have. The Knuckles levels weren't that bad but they were not exciting. They probably should've gave him Beat'em up levels on top of this. Rouge is actually a Spy and Jewel Thief so they easily can give her Stealth and Decision Based Gameplay on some Batman and Metal Gear shit.
    Overall, the game is definitely replayable. I just don't see why Sega doesn't think of anything that I thought of and implement it into SA2's formula to make SA3 already.

    This game aged a bit better than some of Sega's other titles around that time. I tried playing Jet Set Radio the other week and I just couldn't get myself to play it man. Thanks for this video though. I enjoyed the commentary lol.

      No way! I feel like JSR aged way better than this lol

    I recently had the chance to actually play Armored Core 2 for the first time in like 10+ years the other day... and for the record, I speak as a dude who has left multiple comments across different videos on TH-cam over the years primarily with the intent of griping about how the biggest reason he lost interest after AC4 was hating the switch to analog controls.
    ...I'm not 100% sure I regret those comments, but goddamn was it a struggle re-learning that style of movement. Not because I have conflicting muscle memory from following titles, but simply because it had been such a long ass time since I'd played _anything_ like it. Was still kinda fun though, even if I made the foolish decision to try and strugglebus as far as I could without human plus XD
