/vr/ - Retro Games

I wonder why the sonic world doesn’t get more recognition for being as comfy as it is. Also, the OST for 06 is painfully underrated:

After finally playing through the originals I’m starting to agree. I think a lot of people approach these games wrong like I initially did, then get frustrated when they die or the controls “feel clunky”, when in reality they are all closer to something like a side scrolling racing game where you have to memorize the tracks (ie: levels) and know when to slow down and commit to your jumps to get the most fun out of them.

At this point Sonic is right up there with Mega Man as my favorite series and it might be the thing I enjoy the most this year. Shame that the series has hit a bit of a rut due to some bad management, and even more of a shame that poor Yuji Naka’s career is dead because everyone wanted to get on the hate train for Balan.
