I'm playing them for the first time via Steam ports with the better SADX launcher for bug fixes, classic graphics, and 1080p support, and I'm having so much fun. Not flawless by any means, but it's still a really good time.
I remember I had gotten Shadow the Hedgehog from a scholastic school kids catalog back in the day. I didn’t even know it existed until about a year after it came out and flipped my lid. I really liked it at the time but couldn’t ever get back into it. The gun play was absolutely nuts
I am going to miss this channel. Thank you for making Retro Rebound. Really enjoyed the videos! Heard about it from the podcast. It's completely understandable. Just wanted to voice my appreciation for this channel while its still around.
Damn does he plan to stop post on this channel in the near future or something? That would suck as I honestly enjoy this channel more than the main, content wise. Nonetheless I would get it
About Sonic Riders, the gameplay makes you feel so fast compared to other racing games, especially in zero gravity where the power of the gravity boost affects all the objects surrounding you to a feeling of complete power and a killer soundtrack to go with it. Why they didn’t make another game is beyond me. Mario Kart doesn’t even come close to the feeling of speed and power in Sonic Riders, yet here we are with the billionth Mario Kart game
Sega has a wellspring of 3D Sonic games that deserve to be remastered or remade and instead they are incessant on releasing Sonic 1,2, and 3 over and over and over again
After watching Sonic 3 I have the itch to revisit my childhood so I’m getting Sonic Adventure 1 & 2, Project 06, and Sonic x Shadow Generations on PC and I can’t be more excited
the story of 06 is great in my opinion, Sonic's part of the story is not great, but silver's and especially Shadow's are great thanks to the villain mephiles the dark, there is a reason that a lot of people want mephiles back as the main villain
I still love Shadow the Hedgehog, Shadow Generations is cool but the I just love the concept of Shadow the Hedgehog so much more. Shadow tried to push Sonic or at the very least Shadow into a more mature and adult direction. My biggest issue is that Shadow doesn't try enough to push the envelope. That and Shadow 05 had a lot of repetition and tedious gameplay. But I believe if they improved on the idea, they could have something legitimately really cool on their hands. It's goofy but it's sincere, making it cool again, I think it would be interesting to see more of that. Think something like DMC but for Shadow, I think it's really fitting. Sonic has a lot of cool lore and it would be so cool to see them play with it in such a way.
You got it backwards with the DLC for Forces and Generations. The Forces DLC was free Day 1 DLC that honestly should've just been in a software update like what Frontiers did. I don't know what they were thinking putting it on the store. Shadow Generations Movie DLC on the other hand, that's paid DLC. It costs like $5 or something. If you purchase the Deluxe Edition for early access, you get the season pass as part of that bundle, and the Movie DLC is included in that season pass.
Sonic Adventure 2 Shadow skating animation... I love the skate boost mod but adventure 2 had a different kind of swag put on his skating, and they had that cool aurora like effect instead of jet exhaust. Literwlly go back to adventure 2 for Shadow skating and Chao world
YOURE BUGGING!!! Keanu is awesome as Shadow and WAY BETTER than that Robert Pattinson clip you showed (I love him btw but that Batman voiceover was not it lol) 😭
I'm not really a fan of sa2 but I adore heroes & 05 a bunch. 05 is the reason I fell in love wit shadow as a character & I love the gameplay of both. Rivals is a really solid showcase of shadow's character & his interactions wit others(it does that for all the characters imo). I think sonic movie 3 is actually better than sa2 which surprises me but they fixed so many issues that had.
Shallow truly is a gift to the Sonic community: I haven't seen the movie yet, so wish me luck on dodging spoilers😅 As for my favorite Shadow game, this may be recency bias speaking but I'd have to go to Sonic x Shadow generations: it made our boy relevant again 🤩
This couldn't have come at a better time. I started Sonic Colors Ultimate today and I'm not sure if I'm feeling it right now. Not sure if I should push through or stop it.
The original Sonic colors already didn't age that well imo, and the remaster REALLY didn't do it justice You should play the DS version, it's a completely 2D game but it's extremely fun and if you like the Sonic rush games then you'll feel right at home since this game is practically rush 3
sonic adventure 2 is to me to what Shadow The Hedgehog (Game) did to you. i will always have fond memories for that game. but at 30 years old, being so seasoned with modern games practically makes Sonic Adventure 2 unplayable for me. the game feels so rough. thankfully Sonic x Shadow cures that itch.
I’d argue that Shadow’s story in 06 is actually pretty good.
I hope one day Sonic Adventure 1 & 2 get a remake
I've installed retroarch on steam deck and am playing Dreamcast on the go, and that includes SA1 and SA2. I'm so happy
Right?!
Or make a third game

13:53 going to “sonic school” and how you describe it is so accurate and spot on!
I really hope they bring back sonic riders
Back on the GameCube lol I remember that d*mn bird guy always beating me and I would rage 😂
New Sonic racing game teased the hoverboard. Sonic Racing Crossworld
They're never making a new Riders game. But we still need remasters.
Shadow Frontiers would go so hard.
WORD
Mods are there if you really want that
@ yeah, I mean the whole thing. New narrative, zones, etc.
I really liked Keanu in the movie a lot more than in these levels.
I remember I had gotten Shadow the Hedgehog from a scholastic school kids catalog back in the day.

lol nooo dude he's shutting down retro REWIND, not this!!

You know why that Sonic track was so good?
Dangerkids lol.
I would love a dedicated video for Sonic Riders. Its probably the Sonic game I played the most as a kid
Sonic Adventure 2 Shadow skating animation... I love the skate boost mod but adventure 2 had a different kind of swag put on his skating, and they had that cool aurora like effect instead of jet exhaust. Literwlly go back to adventure 2 for Shadow skating and Chao world
Shadow needs a ratchet & clank open world type of game
You missed the most important one... the McDonald's Basketball minigame!
I am begging for a full on Sonic Battle video for Retro Rebound. It's story is so damn good.
YOURE BUGGING!!! Keanu is awesome as Shadow and WAY BETTER than that Robert Pattinson clip you showed (I love him btw but that Batman voiceover was not it lol) 😭
Might just be uncanny valley with the game, but Keanu is fantastic in the Sonic the Hedgehog 3 movie imo!!!
Sonic R and Sonic Shuffle should get reboots. They are criminally underdeveloped.
wow you forgot the absolute GOAT of all sonic games....... sonic chronicles........... actually nevermind you're good
I'm not really a fan of sa2 but I adore heroes & 05 a bunch. 05 is the reason I fell in love wit shadow as a character & I love the gameplay of both.

Ah yes, Sonic Battle. The best Shadow game.
That’s really cool. I love Shadow.

As for my favorite Shadow game, this may be recency bias speaking but I'd have to go to Sonic x Shadow generations: it made our boy relevant again 🤩
I might have to pick up Forces just from that one music track not gonna lie lol
This couldn't have come at a better time. I started Sonic Colors Ultimate today and I'm not sure if I'm feeling it right now. Not sure if I should push through or stop it.
I felt the same way when I bought Sonic colors ultimate last year. I only finished a couple of stages and never looked back on it.
You should stop.
The original Sonic colors already didn't age that well imo, and the remaster REALLY didn't do it justice
You should play the DS version, it's a completely 2D game but it's extremely fun and if you like the Sonic rush games then you'll feel right at home since this game is practically rush 3
I avoided playing that garbage since release.
Colors is extremely overrated. Ultimate is hardly an upgrade.
Busy just doesn’t mention John wick at all? Matrix and Cyber punk but no John Wick ?
We need a Sonic 06 remake made by Sonic Team
I’m so mixed on that Westopolis remix
Love this video! I picked up the new sonic x shadow generations but haven’t played it, hyped to get into it!
sonic adventure 2 is to me to what Shadow The Hedgehog (Game) did to you. i will always have fond memories for that game. but at 30 years old, being so seasoned with modern games practically makes Sonic Adventure 2 unplayable for me. the game feels so rough. thankfully Sonic x Shadow cures that itch.
Shadow game? So the 2 games he has. lol
i would love a new sonic riders that was a great part of my childhood however i think there is a mod with online play and such i could be wrong
Sonic Battle finally mentioned????
Red blur? He’s black bro
Will you ever do the need for speed franchise?
Why would he? Car games are sooooo boring 🫠🥹
@ what gun/shooting games were in the 2010s are basically what car games were in the 2000s. You missed out, kidda 😉
I hope thay bring back sonic r
Nice. P06.
Not sonic racing it's called sonic r look it up
P.O. 6 ? What lol
🔥🔥🔥
Crazy
I am
I am at aldi
