How did sonic perfect the rival battle cliché
Jaxson Russell
Nathan King
all sonic games with shadow in them are bad
Ryder Roberts
cringe and bluepilled
Kayden Collins
just because you liked them as a kid doesn't make them good
Gavin Jackson
>Rocket Knight Adventures
Fights against Axel Gear were always my favorite as a kid.
Brody Thomas
double cringe and bluepilled
Jaxson Bennett
Because it's not their first try.
Robert Cooper
as someone who really likes adventure 1 and 2 adventurefags are genuinely the most obnoxious sonic fans.
Sebastian Cook
lol
Aaron James
what game is like this
not sonic adventure 2
Blake Phillips
sonic generations
Jonathan Carter
knocked it out of the park on that try, too. metal sonic is such a cool design.
Jeremiah Butler
metal sonic is pretty good. I'd definitely say cooler as a rival because sonic fights robots the whole way through the classic games and now he has to fight a robot version of himself.
but that being said i feel his fights in terms of gameplay and style dont match up to sonic v shadow in generations.
I'd say
1. Sonic v Shadow
2. Sonic v Metal Sonic
3. Any other boss idc
Mecha sonic is fucking crazy but hes basically metal sonic

It didn't. People bashed the fuck out of it back then and people still bash the fuck out of it now.

Becuase Mario characters don't really have much of a personality except with a few exceptions. Same with the stories, Mario stories are often are very similar (something gets kidnapped, go save it). Meanwhile, every Sonic character is vastly different from one another in terms of personality, and Sonic games have vastly unique stories, even if neither aren't always well executed.

Because most 3D Sonic games are written like shounens and those pretty much always have a good rival dynamic. That being said Generations was pretty mediocre and was only regarded as good because it the last few Sonic games before it were abysmal

Literally nothing can beat the Dante vs Vergil fight in DMC3. DMC5 comes close too.
Jordan Roberts
Hah. sure you are.
Eli Hernandez
Sonic Generations. This was the SA2 throwback boss fight.
Luis Smith
the rean vs. crow bromance, maybe?
Justin Sullivan
They literally just did character vs evil version of character, what the fuck are you talking about? The Rival battles have all been terrible.
Grayson Cox
did you just ignore the green text
Levi Flores
Sonic Heroes is like the Twinsanity of the Sonic series
Christian Martin

>Not classic fans
>HURR DURR MUH SONIC 3 & KNUCKLES
>I WANT EVERY GAME TO BE SONIC 2
Adventure 1&2 were the best things to happen to the series. Shadow the hedgehog gets a special mention. It would have been perfect if chaos control wasn't broken and they didn't force you to use guns.
Hudson Morris
Was actually thinking about that and the Dante/Vergil fight
I really liked the SA2 rival battle plot and the music to the last fight kicks ass.
DMC3 just does it so much better though
>Fucking taunts back at you
>Second to last boss actually has him fight alongside you instead of taking turns
John Wilson
We just gonna forget that Shadow was the first game to lose momentum physics?
Elijah Hill
shadows the coolest
Thomas Parker
>both characters are equal in stength
That's all I need to know you're full of shit.
