For what happened in Forces with losing rings, I just had my avatar as a hedgehog. they should have made the hedgehog able to at least run faster than the other avatar animals. they could have gave the hedgehog avatar a boost ability and a homing attack that works only on enemies while the chain attack does the rest for things that you lock onto if you understand what i'm saying.
Actually its proven canon that not all hedgehogs are fast . Only sonic ... well shadow is fast because he's designed like this and he's the ultimate life form(also rocket shoes) and silver is slow if not for his fly ability also silver cant do the homing attack sooo yeah
@@sh21dow where does it say that? Also I said in my comment that they should have made the hedgehog species slightly faster than the other avatar species and not the same speed.
The reason why the zone intro pictures are all showing Tails too is because Sega planned to have Tails as Sonic's Sidekick, just like in the 16-Bit version. However, they had to discard this idea due to technical limitations. The whole "rescue Tails" thing was only because Master System and Game Gear couldn't handle Tails as a Sidekick. But the images remained unchanged, that's why they're all showing Tails accompanying Sonic.
3:14 Is that... WII SPORTS BASEBALL I'm hearing? Just... Amazing idea. PS: The electrical hazards in FBZ have the design of the ones from Sonic CD's Wacky Workbench if I recall correctly.
It took me years to beat Sonic 2 for Game Gear with all the emeralds, and it was the first game I played. The effort it took is part of why I love it though. And yeah, Scrambled Egg Zone is one of the hardest levels in Sonic history.
fun fact: in the master system version of sonic 1 if you go down the slope in green hill act 1 at just the right time you can skip the rest of the entire act
I actually have three favorite Sonic songs: - Scrap Brain Zone from Sonic 1 (8-Bit) (in my opinion, Labyrinth Zone theme is also better than its 16-Bit counterpart) - Major Boss from Sonic 3 & Knuckles - Major Boss from Sonic 3 & Knuckles: Hard Bosses Edition
Hi, yes, you're wrong. The electric hazards are from Sonic CD. Most notably, Wacky Workbench. But you must've been so good at the game that you were never launcher upwards to the areas where they were at. No need to think me, just doing my duty.
I like ideas introduced in the Sonic 1 and 2 reimagining but one of the major gripes that keeps them from being truly definitive are the physics, like the basic movement is improved but abilities like the spin dash and spin roll just feel weird and inaccurate. I don't care about the basic movement being inaccurate as the originals were hard to play but if they are going to add the spin dash, it should at least be like a spin dash and not a short roll of speed. I do hope that they can improve it, so that this reimagining is even better but for now it's a between.
I don't think I've seen these reviews before! I really need to play the game gear games sometime so I can witness the elmo looking worm in all it's 8-bit glory
Honestly I prefer how the first two 8-bit Sonics have you find emeralds in the levels themselves rather than interrupting the flow of the game by sending Sonic to a special stage
@@Phredreeke no- the master systems aren’t safe either. The resolution might fix the screen crunch, but they’ve got their own problems. Sonic 1 has auto scrolling, the peak design of what not to do for a Sonic Level, something Forces did not learn at all. It also has the occasional contra system, both of those things not being in the Game Gear version. Sonic 2 also still has awful gimmicks like tubes, hang gliding, etc. that a higher resolution cannot fix. Need I also remind you of the terrible boss fights in 8 bit Sonic 2?
I immediately went in and downloaded the Sonic 1 MS remake for Android and now I will never return to the original one that I spent $4.99 on for my 3ds
I personally really enjoyed Game Gear's Sonic 2, more on the Master System than the actual Game Gear, I just found the level designs mostly different to the other Sonic games and quite enjoyable, though I agree some bosses were tough and the Scrambled Egg maze was tricky too haha
Open sonic is a bit buggy oh and the sonic song it still belongs to CD (the past version of palm tree panic. One more point, sonic 1 and 2 were developed by different companies
8-bit Labyrinth has better music than the Genesis
Yes, and here's a very good remix of that song.

Those electrodes in Flying Battery were from Wacky Workbench in Sonic CD, actually. I'm pretty sure.
The concept originated in Sonic 1 8-bit though.

@@snic3180 He's not talking about Sonic 3d Blast. He's talking about Sonic Blast for the Game Gear.

For me:
5. Sonic 1
4. Sonic CD

Me: Ooh, Garrulous is talking about some awesome 8-Bit games, cool!
*Sees Sonic Triple Trouble*
HUFF HUFF, FANG'S THEME SONG IS FOREVER IN MY BRAIN
I like both of the Sunset Park themes.
@@switchnx
Atomic Destroyer and Robotnik Winter won’t leave my head
@@Cinko420 You see Sonic? Sometimes you SHOULDN'T get those chaos emeralds!
If you want more fang, play sonic robo blast 2
Even if you collect all the emeralds and you get the true ending it’s not like you will unlock Super Sonic so yeah.
“The only thing scrambled after playing this game is my brain”
You made a scrap brain meme and scrambled egg meme
My favorite zone? Bridge zone honestly.
Mine is labyrinth
Thumbnail: *shows tails dead*
Sonic: Less goo. Ha
Thumbnail: sonic 9 game over
Sonic: shows unused animation
I vastly prefer the 8 bit Labyrinth zone music. I will defend that with my life
Same, it’s what the original should’ve been, fast and hectic.
The original is catchy but boring in terms of the actual level
Its pretty good
3:14 Is that... WII SPORTS BASEBALL I'm hearing?
Just... Amazing idea.
PS: The electrical hazards in FBZ have the design of the ones from Sonic CD's Wacky Workbench if I recall correctly.
1:06 I like how sad this is
all of them should be played imo
As soon as I got that discord notification I was hyped
5:12 those hazards were in wacky workbench I think
33:50 Garrulous, where's Goku on your homies list?
It took me years to beat Sonic 2 for Game Gear with all the emeralds, and it was the first game I played. The effort it took is part of why I love it though. And yeah, Scrambled Egg Zone is one of the hardest levels in Sonic history.
Fang isn't even a weasel, he's a jerboa-wolf hybrid, at least according to the Sonic wiki
Wait really?
6:12 You also won't have to draw a nose when you draw yourself, which is nice cause noses are hard to draw good.
the sonic 2 remake got updated so you can play encore mode
My favourite sonic song is the lumberjack boss fight from S3&K
Every miniboss uses the same music
So finally reviewing this game
fun fact: in the master system version of sonic 1 if you go down the slope in green hill act 1 at just the right time you can skip the rest of the entire act
I actually just bought sonic chaos lol
Nice
0:23 nope you’re 100% right sonic 2 is the same game as sonic1 but with spindash which I forget is a feature in the sonic series
0:22 you have now been enlightened
I believe there IS a MasterSystem version of Triple Trouble, but it's a Brazilian exclusive.
The thumbnail makes sonic look happy about the fact that tails is dead
STOP STARING AT ME AAAAAAAAAAAA
Ah yes, the four main sonic level themes ruins, casino, factory, and GREEN
There's a set of 8 bit remakes of 1, 2, chaos/triple trouble, and chaos that are actually good and worth playing, plus the 16 bit remakes
I actually have three favorite Sonic songs:
- Scrap Brain Zone from Sonic 1 (8-Bit) (in my opinion, Labyrinth Zone theme is also better than its 16-Bit counterpart)
- Major Boss from Sonic 3 & Knuckles
- Major Boss from Sonic 3 & Knuckles: Hard Bosses Edition
11:21 trust me, you haven't seen nothing if you aren't underground
"NUKES HAHA" is my new catchphrase
1. Sonic mania
2. Sonic 3&k
3. Sonic
Also him:
Sonic 2 is the most amazing blessing to ever grace our humble existence!!!!!!!!
You know, if Sonic didn't have a nose, he couldn't sense danger.
but he couldnt breathe aswell
Where is sonic chaos
I appreciate these compilation videos
the fbz electro thing are from sonic cd's wacky workbench
4:55 his ring number is 69 haha funny number and I'm still not old enough to know why it's funny.
The thumbnail looks like a certified Dorkly Moment
Sunset Park is supposed to be a theme park.
Hence the rollercoaster carts.
8:22 ALWAYS reccomend the OG game as a first playthrough!
and in the sonic 2 remake had time hill that replace green hill
yes.
i agree with you.
blue is best color.
the robo sonic in scrambled egg was named by fans as proto sonic
There’s a lot of good sonic music, but my favorite is probably sky sanctuary
Don’t drink the pumpkin spice, they put something in it, ta… to make you stupid, I don’t even know what 2 + 2 is.
My fave Sonic song? Chemical Plant I guess
Sonic 2 for the Game Gear: What not to do with a classic Sonic game
Still waiting for the Sonic advance 3 review
he released that video twice
he did that video a while a go..
Actually, Bean could be either a duck, a woodpecker, or a hybrid of the 2, so fang isn’t the only hybrid.
