Name two tolerable to play Sonic games that came out after Sonic Adventure 2
Sonic Colours, which is a rather good game, and Sonic Unleashed, which makes the same exact mistake as Sonic Adventure 2, having gameplay elements that don't fit in a Sonic game take a big part of the game.

Sonic Adventure 2 gameplay elements that don't fit were the Tails and Eggman mech shooting stages and Knuckles and Rouge treasure hunting stages. Sonic Unleashed gameplay elements that don't fit were the Werehog stages.

While not as bad as the Werehog, 2/3rds of Sonic Adventure 2 stages were pretty bad as well (mech-shooting and treasure hunting stages).

The Sonic and Shadow stages in SA2 were quite fun back then, but those stages were only 1/3rd of the game, the other stages in the game were rather boring.

The difference with Unleashed's non speed sections and Adventure 2's is that you go faster than a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ snail in Adventure's and there isn't a forced battle every 5 seconds

I personally found Adventure 2's exploration more fun than the recent ones. Personally, I think the main reason Sonic Adventure 1/2 are the most fun are the Chao. They should bring those back, those were actually fun minigames other than for example the Mario Party ripoffs of a later Sonic game (forgot which one off the top of my head, and I truly don't care to look it up)

I didn't enjoy them, but I enjoyed Colours and you didn't, so it's a case of different people, different tastes.
Still, I think Sonic Adventure 2 gets far too much praise.

Both of those 2 games get too much praise imo (Galaxy 2 is fun though.) The reason people want the older games remade is because it was fun to play, newer games are just fun to look at but boring to hell. Modern game reviewers are like OOH SHINY 10/10, it's kind of sad.

edit: Oh by the way, at least Adventure 2 didn't have EVERY LEVEL forcing a gimmick that felt rushed *cough wisps*

At least it wasn't bad as the jerk off the Wiimote secret battle of Secret Rings, though...

really...remake a game that has god awful writing, to much scavenger hunt knuckles and bat girl, extremely boring shooter bits with tails and eggman that require no skill. and not nearly enough sonic/shadow levels. seriously i just replayed this game for the upcoming release of generations and my god...4-5 level breaks before i got to even play sonic again.

sure the "overall" plot wasnt bad but the interactions between the characters are ear-bleedingly awful. if you want to replay for the story, watch the interpretation Sonic X did, sure the humans are annoying as ever but at least i didnt /facepalm as much.

If playing for the gameplay, do SA 1 DX or colors, far better :P

Want an easy way to tell when someone became a fan of the Sonic series? If they say "Sonic Adventure 2 Battle," then you've got yourself someone who REFUSED to ever touch the Sonic series on a console that wasn't from Nintendo. Honestly, I played Sonic Adventure 2 back when it came out on the Dreamcast. Even then, it was hardly as great as most of the fans drooling over it make it out to be.

The only tolerable parts within the game belonged to Sonic and Shadow. Knuckles and Rouge were an absolute MESS to play with considering how large their stages would get and how ridiculously stupid the treasure hunting got compared to the first Sonic Adventure (which alerted you when you were near ANY emeralds, regardless of the order they were in). Tails and Eggman were also terribly slow and missed the point of following up on Gamma's gameplay style, who was a run-and-gun Time Attack mode. The worst part is that you were forced to play as the other characters after playing as Sonic or Shadow, which was like slamming on the breaks during the middle of the game. The only time they ever did this again was with Sonic Unleashed, where you were forced to slow down heavily with the Night stages.

Even worse is how SA2 was what started the awful trend of using music that focused more on being theme-y rather than being actual level music. Compare the level music from Sonic Adventure to Sonic Adventure 2 and you'll notice a HUGE difference.

Sonic Colors is currently the best 3D Sonic game we have out there and from the looks of things, Generations may end up taking that title.

Falk

Ah, nostalgia.

As part of celebrating Generations coming to PC, I started up SA2B on Dolphin (GC doesn't read anymore, aaand playing it on high resolution with a widescreen hack doesn't hurt)

I couldn't make myself play past the second Knuckles level. I just couldn't. It was too much of a drag. I don't even need to mention the travesty that was Big the Cat's levels in SA1.

Unleashed SHOULDN'T have had Werehog levels. I'll give you that. But that's just from the fact that Sega should have learnt by then. Saying they're not as tolerable as the diversions in past games, on the other hand, is probably only half subjective opinion; with the other half being rose tinted glasses.

Seriously. Go play SA2B again. I'm genuinely interested in your reaction.

Falk

10-20-2011, 01:02 PM

To be quite frank, Unleashed is $10-15 (cheaper used) at most outlets nowadays. That's in my opinion definitely worth the daytime stages, at least, boost2win gameflow or not. Trick a younger brother or little cousin or something into playing the werehog stages for you.

Wasn't SA2B the one with the chao garden? If it was I remember having an angel chao that was about to either die or rebirth and I didn't want to take the chance of it dying so I beat the game and never went back to it because he was almost perfect. Won every race, won every battle.

Yes it was. For me, Chao garden was one of the few fun non-sonic(/shadow) diversions of that era. :D

Meh, Colors was too unresponsive with some of the Wisps, and seemed like they were trying graphics over gameplay, but i agree on Heroes.

Nope. Nice try, though.

I LOVE RPG games, but this one I had to force my way through the bad music, slowness, poor story, horrible level curve, among other things to make it somewhere in the middle. I couldn't take it any more, so I stopped went on to a GOOD RPG :|

And 2 days ago i also finished Sonic and the Black Knight on Dolphin. Very good game and it is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT than other sonic games. you must try this too!:D

The Secret Rings / Black Knight series is a bunch of "jerk off the controller to win!"They did NOT include the motion controls right in that game series

edit: Reason I'm so negative about this stuff? I went into every recent Sonic game hoping, praying it would be good. Then I actually play it. I expect to be disappointed again and again now, and even if Generations is more liked by everyone than Zelda:OoT, the Sonic series still won't be saved.

Tsukento

10-21-2011, 04:15 PM

I don't get why people thought the Knuckles/Rouge stages we're dull. They were fun to me.
Because...

The levels got larger and larger, which lead to...
A largely slower paced experience due to needing to search for the shards/emeralds, all thanks to...
No longer being able to track down the shards/emeralds in any order like the first Sonic Adventure, thus forcing you to find them in a specific order, in hard to find areas where some stages can even have THREE TIERS of areas to search, which is also hampered by...
Hints that go out of their way to be the complete opposite, from having tips that are backwards, to being extremely vague and sometimes outright lying.

Mikouen

10-21-2011, 04:29 PM

I feel a bit weird because I thought the Werehog stages weren't actually a bad concept, they were just implemented poorly. Probably would have enjoyed them a lot more if they weren't slower action-packed stages scattered among fast stages which require more agility. The mood whiplash alone created a mental disconnect for me that pulled me right out of the game.

That was also the problem with the Mecha and Excavation levels in SA2. You have three different types of stage which - while fun - are all mixed together and balanced towards the same set of strengths and weaknesses.

Combine some technical flaws in their design, which Tsukento has already covered, and all of the fun is just wiped away by the cognitive dissonance.

Even if you can't give it credit for anything else, Sonic 2006 had the right idea by breaking up the different level types and throwing them into their own separate, yet consistent, groupings.

I probably would have enjoyed SA2 a lot more if I could have picked from "Sonic/Shadow", "Tails/Eggman" and "Knuckles/Rouge" rather than just "Hero/Dark", depending on my mood, and received a consistent experience for that play session.

Then again, I have to admit that would have bungled the story progression even more, which seemed to be far more important to Sonic Team than any sort of fun factor back in '01.

ezodagrom

10-21-2011, 06:11 PM

The different gameplay styles, like the werehog brawling, mech shooting, even treasure hunting, they're things that would work better if they were in their own game instead of being mixed into a game that was supposed to be about speedy platforming.

Saying this, I'm not against having more characters other than just Sonic, but those characters gameplay should, in my opinion, be based on that core speedy platforming gameplay that makes the Sonic series fun.

Tsukento

10-21-2011, 06:33 PM

Actually, it all worked out better when it was in Sonic Adventure. Why? Because no one's gameplay mechanics interrupted the ones for the other characters. If you chose Sonic, you played as Sonic the entire time of his story. You wouldn't play as Sonic in Emerald Coast, see a cutscene and then be forced to watch Knuckles' story start and search for Emerald shards in Casinopolis.

Everyone's own gameplay features wouldn't work as a game on their own. See how well that worked for Knuckles' Chaotix and Shadow the Hedgehog.

StrudelB

10-21-2011, 07:15 PM

Sonic Adventure 2 isn't that good of a game. Just because it was the first 3D Sonic all of you played doesn't mean it's so good that it needs to be remade. Colors was a far superior 3D Sonic experience. So was Unleashed, even.

If any Sonic game needs a remake any time soon, it's the first Sonic Adventure. It's aged so poorly, and needs some tweaking as far as the mechanics go.

Johnnykey

10-21-2011, 09:24 PM

Sonic Adventure 2 is to MANY people, hands down, 'the best Sonic game ever'.

And I can't disagree with that. Didn't play Colors but I did play Unleashed and that's in no way comparable to SA2. And it was the second 3D Sonic game I played, not first.

Tsukento

10-21-2011, 11:12 PM

I did play Unleashed and that's in no way comparable to SA2.
Sure it is. Both force you to play a different game mechanic that's terribly slow (and sometimes even frustrating) right after having you play through Sonic's fast-paced gameplay.

They both basically have mechanics that are like the equivalent of throwing a stick dead on into a bicycle tire, causing it to get caught and coming to a complete halt while throwing the rider/player off.

I personally found Adventure 2's exploration more fun than the recent ones. Personally, I think the main reason Sonic Adventure 1/2 are the most fun are the Chao. They should bring those back, those were actually fun minigames

Chao breeding was far more fun than it had any right to be. I ended up running stages over and over just to get more rings and such for them, and I filled three whole gardens. I sort of want it back, but I know that if I got it on PC I'd never do anything else again...

Kazedarkwind

10-22-2011, 02:47 PM

i just replayed Sonic Adventure DX and Sonic adventure 2 recently and i do think sonic adventure 2 lacked the same free world exploration that sonic adventure 1 had. it might be a very small portion of the game but being able to run around the city and mystic ruins with no real clear objective is just to entertaining.

That also made the game feel like an "Adventure Game" rather than an ordinary sonic game. Sure you had to play the others in order to unlock the end but it was still entertaining to roam between the stages.

Sonic adventure 2 had the far more disappointing, "play who was appropriate for the story" mission setup. Which in itself isn't bad. RPGs like final fantasy have been doing that for decades. The problem about doing it in a Sonic game was the fact that the styles of game play are sooo mismatched and jarring that every time i see a blue level logo i jump for joy and everytime i see any other logos (except for red for shadow) i bite down on my controller stifling my screams.

The treasure hunting stages were incredibly tedious, the mech stages were okay, and the speed stages were incredible. I still play it today and it does not feel dated.

I'm not sure what poster means about music. Aside from the cheesy Knuckles raps (although some beats were catchy), it was excellent.

Fell in love with Chao Garden, not ashamed to say it. That along with all of the 180 emblems, the kart racing, and Versus Mode gave the game outstanding replayability for me and my friends/siblings.

Adventure 1 had its moments but the exploration was tedious, taking away from the game's flow...Big, the Chao Garden wasn't as big, and the stages lacked polish and speed (the theme park especially).

The 3D Gameplay in Colors is actually too fast. Not enough control which inhibits interacting with the stage. IMO, going in straight lines with steps being your biggest obstacle is mediocre platforming. Killing enemies with that target attack is entirely less satisfying in the more recent games. Lastly, the 3D element is too cinematic, especially the rail grinding. Not to say that it was very difficult in Adventure 2 , but you had to at least jump in numerous occasions and be alert.

It's beyond nitpicky at this point, I just don't like the dumbed'down 3D gameplay at all in this game (Colors), nor do I enjoy the 2D. Oh well, as long as others enjoy it...

Sonic Adventure 2 is an 11 years old game, you can't compare it to recent games like Colors: there would be no Colors without SA2.

It was a different era, they were trying new stuff: a lot of people didn't like the treasure hunting, many others hated the brainless mech-shooting: I liked both. Some challenges were a pain in the ♥♥♥, but overall it was a well crafted new experience, maybe not suitable for everyone, but still quality gameplay.

Sonic Adventure 1 was overall a smaller but better game than SA2.

Since Generations is the only good game they made in 11 years (Sonic Heroes wasn't bad but still very far from being great), the only chance they have to save the franchise is craft more games like the last one. The story is awful and way too childish, but who cares

So far Sonic Generations and Sonic The Hedgehog 4.

If SEGA keeps it up they could easily do SA3 in the same reguard and do it good by brining it back to the STH/SA style instead of whatever the other games have been.

And I wouldn't mind a port but if they ported it to PC using the new engine, it would be even better.

Sonic Adventure 2 (Battle, but only because I never was fortunate enough to have a Dreamcast) remains one of my favorite games. Yes, the acting was bad, but the story was decent enough to cover for it (say what you like, I enjoyed the entire plot, especially with the colony ARK and Gerald's revenge). Yes, the Knuckles and Tails stages were rather plodding compared to the Sonic ones, but the game would of been too short without them, and SEGA's never been good at figuring out appropriate filler (the entire point of the Werehog, actually. Think about it, Unleashed would of lasted maybe an hour, if you were bad at it). But, in spite of the downsides, I love the game. The fun levels, memorable music (aside from the obvious City Escape, go listen to Pyramid Cave and Green Forest again, for example), and of course the Chao Garden all came together to make it better. Too many Sonic 'fans' focus on the negatives, and ignore the good games inside.
And those of you wanting Adventure 3, that's what '06 was. I really wish it wasn't so full of bugs and glitches due to rushed production ("We don't care if you're not done yet, gotta get it out for the anniversary!"), I honestly believe it would of been a very good game (and probably is if you ignore the bugs).

Colors was alright. Step off a little...

I'm very excited about the SA2 HD. I still have a Dreamcast on which I played the original one. Thanks to Generations, I bought other classics on Steam (original trilogy + CD). Most of the Sonic games I played was FAR from garbage. I didn't played 2006, Shadow and Unleashed, because I don't have a console, so I was fortunate enough to pass those worse games. Here my ranking.

Top Tier:
- Sonic Adventure, Sonic Adventure 2 (with nostalgia goggles), Sonic Generations, Sonic 3 & Knuckles

- Sonic CD, Sonic Adventure 2 (without nostalgia goggles), Sonic Colors, Sonic 1

Mid Tier:
