- Intro and outro are blurred because this video is from a time when this channel was branded as something else but I have decided to keep the video up as it is my most popular video ever made by far.

Generations feels so alive, and lush while Forces feels kind of dead. I think it’s the music idk. The graphics look better in Forces but the presentation in generations is far better.
Vividspirit Really? i think generations graphics were kind of better.
sonic generations better then forces i think so becoes lot resones but one of them is super sonic is not dlc in generations and in forces he is dlc
Generations just had better level design and object placement
Forces is just better in graphic engine/lighting/effects/fps/air boost
Generations wins everything else
DAREL slama/slam! a! game air boost is debatable, so is lighting
yeah just have one thing i think he lose to generations is the level design
Graphically, Forces is a big improvement over Generations BUT don't misunderstand me... Generations overall has the better PRESENTATION, making it a nicer looking game than Sonic Forces altogether. This basically means that Sonic Forces has much better lighting, texture quality and shadows, but Sonic Generations actually knows how to put together an environment and time things in a way that makes it satisfying for both gameplay and visuals.
Finally, A smart comment. You just earned a 👍
TheFrostedfirefly I agree. But in Forces, the Blocky level design ruins it for me personally. It's not as bad as Colors mind you, but it is really distracting and it makes it feel sort of bland. I prefer the Generations level. It's a longer level, thus more variety, gameplay and more replay value.
I still think Unleashed is graphically the best looking Sonic game and it's 10 years old at this point. Sure, Unleashed and Gens both use the Hedgehog Engine, but they toned down the engine for Gens. And that's why the game looks so pixelated. Or at least the console versions. (The engine was designed for Unleashed after all.)
Edit: And the reason why it was toned down in Gens is because they wanted a smoother framerate.
The Emu Gamer Yeah.
The Emu Gamer Also with the semi-realistic vibe you probably mean cartoonish with Pixar cutscenes. (That's the style of Unleashed after all.)
The Emu Gamer Yep. I really want Sonic Team to return to that style. It fits so well! :D
I miss when Classic Sonic had better physics. I miss Modern Sonic's drift. I miss when combos in mid-air existed. I miss when the gameplay was actually challenging. I miss the different camera angles in classic stages. I miss the fact that there wasn't talking every 5 seconds during gameplay. I miss when the classic stage music was good. I MISS WHEN SONIC STAGES HAD GOOD PRESENTATION!
Well now with Xbox One you can play it backwards compatible!
laura Berrie that just sounded like a fuckin ad honestly hahaha
Yeah generations is good
sonic mania has perfect classic sonic physics just saying
@@CooingSlinky11 he means 3d classic sonic
it's so painful to watch classic sonic running at "top speed" in forces. 6:56 specifically just flat out hurts.
JoIsAwesome ikr
omg same
Speed cap
Not to mention 8:24
I think that's why forces is worse to me, top speed is so slow, so watching them run is not satisfying
For one thing, generations was actualy a game
Lazy Cat Studios And Lazy Cat Gaming vai tomar no cu
Lazy Cat Studios And Lazy Cat Gaming forces is a visual novel where you press one button to progress
Goku Black ?
Even Forces is a game
@@hypersonic3d307 que isso meu jovem?
just looking at the green hill comparison, Sonic Generations had you go a lot faster, and you still had an at least slightly longer level either way. Not only that but Forces seemed so boring, I wasn't interested watching it..
Geez, people aren't kidding when they say Generations is much better. I knew that it was better already but this just proves it further.
Keechoo Calzone ikr, I can’t believe people think Forces is better smh
i still play Sonic Generations to this day
Sega focused on the graphics a little too much on sonic forces and in my opinion i didn't enjoy it. Sonic generations in the other hand felt more fun and crazy. Plus classic sonic in forces felt bad.
Sonic Forces has shit graphics anyway lol
IKR, how is classic sonic so inconsistent in the story? He barely did nothing. Chaos was just click bait same with shadow.
Yes the water and grass an lighting look good but wheres the style? It's so bland and boring looking, and where the bloody hell is the post processing? It's like they forgot about it.
Soulless RJ your comment reminds me of Sony focusing too much on graphics
Im just RJ that’s not classic sonic.its mania sonic
Generations: Yo Forces, you dropped something.
Forces: What?
Generations: Speed.
sonic generations is so nostalgic and this bit 19:10 gives so much memories
At least Forces nerfed the spin dash.
And boost,speed,physics,how long a level is,level design,tricks,boost system, and more.
Random Guy the spin dash of mine in generations is here 2:22
The spindash didn’t need a nerf. With the natural momentum being as screwy and floaty the as it was in Generations the overcharged spindash was good to compensate for that
At least the spin dash was better in generations
You don’t know what a good sonic game is do you? Forces’s physics is shit you can’t turn by yourself the game has to turn sonic for you he’s just stiff in general, level design is shit everything is bland and boring and everything is automated a sonic game is fun when you actually play the game not have the game play by itself and what fucking trick system are you talking about???sonic had the same homing attack for years now, the boost system is the same as sonic colors so wtf did they nerf? You need to do some research on some good sonic games my guy.
@@soniciconic3709 I think it was a joke.
Sonic Generations has more than 6 years, but the graphics, models, physics, controls, level design music is better than Forces!
the graphics and the physics (except the classic sonic) no
Carlos Tapuera Graphics go to forces but everything else, especially physics are for generations. Modern sonic doesn’t even have drift and there are some parts where drift should have been used just make you fly off the map
Also in Generations modern had much better jumpball with his body spinning and covered in nice effect whereas in Forces it's just a model swap to spiked sphere. Generation's modern had many homing attack animations but in Forces there is only one. That's quite a visual downgrade.
@@stormwatch32 forces is not that bad at least better than sonic 06 and sonic boom rise of lyric the
@@FlashBiduan nah sonic 06 and boom are even better because they actually brought interesting ideas to the table while sonic forces doesn't do anything of note and is so boring to play and watch that I can't watch/play more than one minute of forces without getting bored sonic 06 was at least funny to watch and play same with boom.
In my opinion, Forces graphic, visual with Generations physics, level design= Best Sonic Game EVER
Try saying that to the Adventure and Classic fanboys XD Though I agree completely with what you said.
damondomenic I agree you too. I want to play those styles like Mario Odyssey. Part of stage is adventure and classic, and the other part is Boost stage
Vinary haha I meant if you mentioned what you said to an adventure or classic fanboy you'd get flamed because they all have different views on what the best sonic game should be.
Vinary unleashed looks better to be honest.
Sonic 3 & knuckles imagine the unleashed art style on the HE2... then it'll be amazing
Modern sonic looks dead and lifeless in forces of you wait he does nothing
He's just more patient... Lol
I played both, and generations is the king.
Yes! Generations is my favoriete game!
Same
If Sonic Mania is the love letter to fans, Generations is the cute notes passed during class, and Forces is the breakup text.
If Sonic Team made a full-on no-side-gimmick Modern Sonic game with Generations' full moveset, physics, level design, with a darker themed story (Forces, but with much more detailed and varied environments, but kept Sonic's cocky attitude from Colours/ Generations in the midst of all that's going on), then I think we'd have a very-damn-near (if not) perfect Modern Sonic game that could earn the people/ fan's trust in the quality of the series again. Generations marked a great upward trajectory for Sonic. It can happen again.
this took back to 2011 geez the boost was i think way faster in generations
No sonic game has topped unleashed when it comes to speed
boost is just getting slower in every game lol
LBPPlayer7 sonic generations was the last game before forces that actually had boost gameplay. Lost world and boom didn't even have boost, lol
ikr, I don't know why sonic forces turn from AN EXPECTED GREAT GAME to A LITERAL PIECE OF GARBAGE! JUST BECAUSE OF THE STUPID BOOST MECHANIC BEING DOWNGRADED!
ToffeeRecord the game is OK I don't have a problem with it the levels are to short tho
I like Sonic Generations/Unleashed boost formula better than Sonic Forces
No, IT'S NOt
Super Sonic Gamer chill out kid
I'm not a kid
No it's colors and adventure but boost
Not me
Sonic generations motion blur is better
FarrowTheEdgehog15 _ Generations and Unleashed have motion blurs. Forces has these.. white lines..
FarrowTheEdgehog15 _ sonic has a bit of motion blur when he boosts if you pay attention
Forces had no motion blur it has these white line effect that lost world has during a spin dash
One of the reasons some of the modern Sonics seem a bit slower is that most modern gaming systems don't have blast processing.
the only one is switch
I think they slowed Classic Sonic down in Forces when he's basically running.
Fragonus yea but in generations the spindash is faster than the boost
I'm seeing two great games here each for their own reasons.
No one agrees with you...
Forces was meh.
I agree, I liked Sonic Forces as well as Sonic Generations, though yeah Sonic Forces could have been better in some ways
@@soniciconic3709 I do.
I think Sunset heights looks gorgeous (In a... Sunset heights sorta way) Come on man the presentation. The death egg robots destroying the city. The.. Fire asteroids?? Its just so well done man.
Sonic Generations is a better game in my opinion, I haven't played Forces but from what I seen it looks okay, but it won't top Generations. Nice video.
DO. NOT. PLAY. SONIC. FORCES.
I think both of them are pretty good games
You can't say one is a better game if you haven't played the others, but you're not wrong though.
Play it it's cracked
They need to port Generations to modern consoles
How do you screw up the level design so much when you already pretty much perfected it in Generations
Because the Sonic Team spent too much time on the graphics alone and only about a year on the actual gameplay!
In my opinion the classic sonic music is weird in sonic forces like if you agree
Firestorm Gaming hmm not all of them, just that they dont fit
They are too childish but at the same time they don't fit
Ghost Town and Green Hill are okay
I like it a lot. Classic Sonic dogshit in Forces but the music is great, especially the Green Hill Classic Sonic boss music.
Remember when momentum was a thing with classic Sonic? In Sonic Forces there is no momentum with Classic Sonic at all. Now matter how fast you run you can never get over simple ramps in Sonic Forces.
Disagree, Generations didn't have good momentum physics for Classic Sonic like in the Genesis games he felt stiff and heavy and they needed to put boost pads and automation everywhere in order to make Classic Sonic go the right speed with more complex terrain like loops, ramps, curves ect. Compare Classic Sonic in Generations to Mania Sonic they feel way different. It's not that surprising then to me that the team from Generations that went on to work on Forces didn't get the physics for Classic Sonic right in Forces either. They just copy and pasted Generations Classic Sonic and added a speed cap, gimped his jump and added the drop dash.
@@islandboy9381 yes it isnt the same as mania but it is still good. It is pretty easy to go fast with classic sonic in gens but forces it is impossible.
Guys got a question....................WHAT THE HELL HAPPEN TO LIVES!!!!!!
for me that's the worst thing in the game
@FarrowTheEdgehog15 _ because the coins in super mario odyssey are here to buy clothes to get get more power moons, merchindice's for your odyssey or dress up mario in goofy style's ( seriously the boxer shorts make laugh hard), but the rings in sonic forces don't serve nothing and then shower you with 999 rings that do nothing like no shop to buy weapons or clothes to buy, no new characters ( shadow doesn't count) , no super sonic, and so whats the point of getting all red rings, bingo number cards, and the silver moon medals if your not going to get nothing expect achievements that are pointless like come on my dude cuz that is lazy.
@@zeldarnation1875 what does that have to do with lives?
@FarrowTheEdgehog15 _ because the coins actually have a dam purpose for anything ( not literally), but the rings they have no purpose why there are so many rings when they serve nothing at all for anything.
You can thank Super Mario Odyssey for that
Ahh Omochao.. You never cease to annoy me so god damn much
7:01 My hope for Sonic Team.
Hahhahahahahaha
Forces only has one uniquely good looking visual design and that was the Metropolis. Everything else felt a bit derivative and not so improved. I think with Green Hill though it’s unfair because the plot turns it sandy also obviously Green Hill had to look deliberately run down!
This video is good man I enjoyed it! But adding some of your input in the video on the stage would make it a little more interesting. Just a heads up because ur my mate! Great first video!
wow man really can’t believe how much this video ended up blowing up, you surpassed my sub count with flying colours man! dead happy for you and i hope more of your videos blow up and you get your big break. the change from banana blitz has been good for you so far i see! just remember me when you become the next cobanermani456 😉
The Emu Gamer haha this video did great and i really hope it happens again for you in the future dude, and i’ll continue to help you in any possible way i can!
Forces is you and generations is the guy she told you not to worry about
You can’t drift in sonic forces wow
My concern
The game is shit because Takashi did not work on forces shun nakaamora created this game
@Spidersonic 10 spin dashing is useless if you can boost.
Doesn't really matter tho
@@soraiiro_ idk about that, chief. Maybe could be more control, less speed?
God the homing attack powerup for classic sonic was so satisfying. Wish sega thought up something other than clothes ._.
Also, really curious as to what eggman thought ANOTHER giant casino would actually accomplish. I understand in other games where he clearly must get supply for millions of robots from somewhere, but in the midst of an apocolypse?
Those generation graphics loon alot better than forces..
@Jonathan Soko yes they are much better
@Jonathan Soko yes they do lol
@Jonathan Soko DO U HAVE EYES
The graphics in forces are a lot better because of the hedgehog engine 2. Generations also had good graphics but better gameplay as well
Forces green hill zone looks ugly
My most favorite of sonic forces is this kind of song 0:22
Nice vídeo!!!!
Both of them are awesome.
It’s like comparing a chocolate cake with sprinkles and a piece of crap with chunks of corn in it
Imo, Generations wins for a lot of things, the main reason being that its actually FUN!
Having a hard time finding the outro music. Anyone know it?
Holy shit. The graphical quality is better in Generations!
Jordan Dude Surprisingly it’s not, The developers just knew how to use Hedgehog engine properly. In fact they used it so well in Sonic Unleashed, they had to dumb it down in Generations just to make sure framerates wouldn’t drop 😂. Forces could’ve looked like generations with better lighting/textures etc. but these new developers did not know how to use the Hedgehog Engine 2 to its fullest
1:29
Tails: This is Green Hill Zone, right? Something is wrong.
To be honest, Sunset Heights is basically Forces’ version of Crisis City
Retro Mario Gamer Well, there's no lava
Forces feel like Generations running in the Lost World engine
Just a small nitpick I have: You can't compare two different levels if they don't have much in common. Mystic Jungle and Sky Sanctuary don't have a lot that are similar. I mean, kinda , but not a lot.
Classic Sonic in Sonic Generations is faster than Classic Sonic in Sonic Forces, nice video
What's the name of that intro song?
I didn't played Sonic Forces, cause of outdated PC, but i completed Sonic Generations twice. So, from what i saw about Sonic Forces, i can say that it's the same Sonic Generations, but looking a little bit different.
If we're talking about green hill zone generations is better, with modern the level was longer with multiple paths and secrets while sonic forces is literally a straight line boost to win, now classic in generations he didnt have the best physics but they were better than forces and the level seemed alive and colourful but forces on the other hand the level is bland with basic repetitive platforming and the psychics got messed up they even locked his speed . Basicly repeat all those points to the other levels generation is the better game even tho it was made 7 years ago .
Basically in Forces we can see a lot of improvement in graphics, textures...they look great! (Genernation's are not bad either but you can see the improvement)
But for me personally, the way the levels are designed are much better in Generations. They are longer and look stunning( I don't see a level in Forces as pretty as Sky Sanctuary, honestly). and the way you control the characters is more 'fluid'. I mean classic sonic is at least faster in Generations and you were able to drift with modern sonic.
Music wise, I prefer Generation's soundtrack, I've listened to some music from Forces and they are not bad but not great either. Also I've realised that there are more songs with vocals on Forces which is not a bad thing but I don't think that those types of songs fits with those levels they are in.
If you check more precisely, the vocal songs are only during the avatar stages, even in his phase during final boss, rock and modern synthethic music is for Modern Sonic and ear-r4ping synth is for classic Sonic ! I honestly think this is a pretty cool detail :)
Does Classic Sonic in Generations look like he's going faster because the camera is closer or am I going crazy?
Best part of Generations is that Modern Sonic can actually reach top speed in 2D sections without boosting or dash panels.
I wish they’d create a game with boost sonic, but lets you play as Sonic’s friends with their adventure style gameplay, so Knuckles’ treasure hunting and Tails’ race to the finish style of gameplay.
Sonic forces with the short ass stages
Generations are so much better as forces
Great response - grammar = ygs/overall, awesome comment!
ToffeeRecord sry i can't Unserstrand you im from Germany and therefore i can't Unserstrand your question
13:03 lmao
I like both
8:38-8:54 was cute to be honest
You wanna know something generations did that should have stuck with EVERY SONIC GAME (even mania):
The skill shop. It's so fun to customize sonic to make I different from other Sonics.
generations is very cool
Tails: "Strange, I see desert over there. This is Green Hill, right? Something is wrong."
Me: It's called global warming Tails.
(Yes, this is a SupaGoGoMan nod)
to those saying graphics are better than generations, I'm not gonna attempt to change your mind, I just wanna suggest replaying lost valley. take a good look at every detail, the colors used, and the world presentation. if you still think its an improvement, great fine by me. but give it a shot anyways, you might come back with a different view
Ah man, these two are good modern Sonic games (Generations is far superior I believe with it's smoother gameplay) but the one game in between them (Lost World) felt so odd. I wish they'd re-release it on the modern consoles like the X1, PS4 and Switch. At least the Switch if they have a Nintendo deal. What do you guys think of Lost World compared to Generations and Forces?
I can't remember if Green hill was turned into a desert because of Lost World, or if Eggman did something to it between Lost World and Forces
we need generations 2.0 new levels design.oh my this game fascinating
look how much better the backgrounds are in generations compared to forces
For some reason i think ots forces timer fault for making the stages look short cuz you every notice how fast it goes compared to forces?
Sonic Colors & Sonic Forces Versus Sonic Generations & Sonic Unleashed Stage Comparison
What made generations cool was that it had the Sonic unleashed hedgehog engine
Cool
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-MY OPINION=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Sonic forces, really?
This game made for money!
Classic sonic is painfully embarrassing,
Modern Sonic boost is horrible,
The music is not imaginated AT ALL. (That goes with the invincibility)
Also Speeches during classic modes are not necessary!
Bosses are random.
Generations though, 9/10!
Great music
Modern Re-imagined levels
Classic hits the classic walk through,
Still the same action
Story is perfect!
Bosses are fun to beat,
Boosts are perfect for speed runs!
Beautiful graphics, scenery!
Still, I can't even believe that SEGA, SONIC TEAM disapointed us with sonic forces.
If they just TRY A LITTLE HARDER!
Btw if your reading this, This is My Opinion! Don't take it personal. =D
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
No se inglés pero solo diré Generetions is the Best
Mystic Jungle: Casino should've been compared to Casino Night Zone on Generations For 3DS
Sonic generations is the best but I think they need more graphics for their bodies and their world.
I love both of these games the same
Sonic Generations is 2,5 D while Forces is simple 2D when playing with the younger sonic
2:44 who remembered sonic chasing eggman in sonic 2
Are city escape critics city and sunset heights the same thing
Look at 1:26 and 2:46
Despite Forces technically having better graphics, the generations level is still far more detailed, has more green, which looks better, and has a much nicer feel.
Both games have their merits to be fair
After watching this, I feel like I never showed Generations the respect it deserves. It was actually a pretty decent Sonic game.
Sheesh, they’ve got skills when playing as modern sonic! Wow…
4:58
player who only plays sonic forces and who knows nothing about Generations: IS SONIC DRIFTING?!!!?!!!
4:58
No Matter how many games Sega releases. Sonic Generations will always be the best.
Meme Lord It dint have to be that way but it is.
Hephaestus *Cough* Unleashed is better
unleashed is way more exciting in level design like in gens 2d its always generic "slow block go up, slow block go down" with occasional fun parts but unleashed is always a little obstacle course and it has cool camera angles and was most of the time fast
Unleashed was better.
I prefer unleashed
Run...
Alternate title: "How Sega nerfed Sonic in Sonic Forces
I feel and even see that they gutted the speed for both sonic and classic in forces while giving them a cap and even the boost looks lackluster
Is this really a contest?
generations cause i loved it when i was a kid
You still are a kid lol
6:57 bruh how did classic sonic not make it up that tiny ramp after going down that big hill?
Problem with this comparison is that you're comparing stages that appear in order in Generations to stages that appear much later into Forces.
For example: If a viewer was to take this at face value, without prior knowledge of how Generations and Forces are laid out, they'd be under the assumption that Green Hill Zone is the first level in both for Classic Sonic and be lead to believe that Sonic Forces has a longer Green Hill stage for Classic Sonic, but a shorter Green Hill for Modern Sonic, while Generations has a shorter Green Hill for Classic Sonic, but a longer Green Hill for Modern Sonic.
But, this comparison video is good at demonstrating how more alive and joyful Generations is compared to Forces, along with how they use 3D to enhance Classic Sonic level design by making good use of camera angles, foregrounds, and backgrounds, to add some 3D pop to an otherwise 2D experience.
I wish they were side by side
While I do appreciate the lighting in Forces, it's definitely an obvious rush job. Throughout the 4-year development period, at least three full years were spent on making the engine. In fact, when the teaser dropped, not even a pre-alpha was made yet. There was nothing.
Forces should have been given an extra four years of development.
Though, I have a hypothesis. Maybe a much larger title is in the works, and Forces was just filler to test the new engine and potentially satisfy fans.
Does that explain why they went for a more cartoonish style in Forces than the Pixar style realism from Unleashed/Generations? So they could make the less detailed graphics faster and port it over more easily to all consoles.
Generations is way better, but some of the classic sonic sections definitely have automated sections with boost pads a lot. SEGA in forces though is like "We can't make good levels? Let's just add a boost pad"
*Green Hill's looking a lot more like sand hill right now*
I enjoy both Forces and Generations but i enjoy Generations a bit more
