The games were ok to me. I liked them. I don't give a shit about the physics because nothing has yet to surpass sonic 4 episode 1-----oh right, lost WORLD exists.

I should have said franchise in OP, i wasn't really singling out Rush

Yeah, this op is extremely misleading though since rush is a good game even counting 1 and 2 of sonic. Adventure was pretty ok even with the material gathering.

youtube.com/watch?v=nKKXB1j3OxE
ost from both games is pretty damn good too so you're right about the music thing.

if you take off the nostalgia glasses most of the music is as bad as the series

No glasses here since I often just go ahead and play the newer releases sometimes on a loan and the osts are pretty good. They definitely have a great sound department. Something is just going on with QA and design. Big mishandled series similar to how starfox gets fucked and every non darksouls ip fromsoft has.

TOO BLACK TOO STRONG

name 1 good sonic song that isn't from SA2 or earlier

sneakman

There are a lot of good tracks in this series. The composers aren't pushovers.

Heres one of my favorites anyways and it's just a menu theme
youtu.be/V_9ujx5UjlM

Does anyone else think Rush was the best boost game? I don't know if it's just because it was more of a novelty at the time, but I enjoyed it far more than subsequent boost games.

While admittedly '06, chronicles, boom and forces are shit.
A mediocre series that does not make.
(Yes I am aware of the issues with the ports of SA1&2 Personally, I wouldn't count those.)

Unpopular opinion (I think?): This was peak 3d sonic
>Great story that took itself seriously but not too seriously

Samefag here,
Misread "song" as "game" because I'm a retard
Still related since Knight of the Wind is god-tier sonic

Yeah, that game did have a pretty good soundtrack. I used to not like the game but I gave it a chance again on the NON ps2 versions and the game played a LOT better. Turns out the ps2 one sucked balls and was really buggy in comparison to every other release.

There is a pc port and it was pretty good. It's the one I played after ps2 and it was 100x better as a game overall.

Gameplay was fucking ass. I dunno it's pretty well rounded and has a good story, but the fucking broken wagglan techniques shit absolutely fucks it and keeps it from being top tier.

Rooftop Run

I'm gonna raise you one

The Advance series, at least 3, has some of the best songs in the series.

youtube.com/watch?v=D2Qx63K1vGA

hell yes i love both aquatic base tracks

I liked secret rings a bit more than black knight since you could adjust the sensitivity for movement but truth be told they should have had a nunchuck option.
Advance 1 and 2 have amazing osts too. Some of the best in the series

The gameplay wasn't amazing but atleast it was consistent with it's gameplay.

Secret rings gets way too much hate imo.
The storybook games were some of the better 3d sonic games, I really wish there were more then 2 of them.

I will always be sad that Battle Highway never got a modern remix.

youtube.com/watch?v=6wPufa3Xu0I

Secret rings had VERY cool aesthetics and it also had what was sonic shuffle 2 in it with another amazing ost. So technically it was TWO games.

youtu.be/b7FmmOCB2p4

Black Knight probably had some of the best characterization for Sonic, come to think of it, it was the last game before everything went downhill with baldy mcnosehair wasn't it?
I should replay it some time

Most of the Unleashed, Colors, and TSR soundtracks. And all of Mania too

>Advance 1 and 2 have amazing osts too. Some of the best in the series

I hear that, and I'mma let you finish, but Advance 3 has one of the best tracks of all time

youtube.com/watch?v=UlCArsA_yMY

Advance and battle have some tracks they share I think but have remixed versions of eachother.

I believe it was the final game of the sa1/sa2 writer, so he definitely put all he had for one last bang and he nailed it.
Even the final boss theme "With Me" is amazing, how it pins the question of whether or not sonic is the villain of this story or not.
Sonic and the black knight was peak sonic storytelling.
As for the gameplay, it doesn't hold up as well as it did when you were a kid but it's still pretty fun.

This is the guy who did the jet set ost.

Why was Forces' soundtrack such a let down? there's like only 3 good original tracks

Aqua Road or Park Avenue are the best songs in Forces.

Ohtani's in a synth and dubstep phase now I guess
For me, I like those but I prefer Prison Hall and Metropolitan Highway

>This game is truly full of some of the best music in sonic and I don't know why.
>the forgotten.....
It's a sonic game that's why
Until Forces, even the terrible sonic games had great osts

No one knows because no one played shuffle.

Always liked this Sonic Advance 2 second phase boss theme
youtube.com/watch?v=-DM314E3cEQ

I like how it sounds frantic

I like the really short guitar solo (or hell the fucking intro to the void level stage) for Fist Bump.

Forces' OST was much more memorable than Lost World's.

I don't know why people think Forces is worse than Lost World. Lost World was legitimately painful to play.

been listening to the forces ost for the avatar stages cause i heard it was good (i think they are the only ones with vocals) and it really grew on me
never played the game though
my favs are also park avenue and space port

opinions on cosmic eternity from sonic cd? its my favorite theme

The entire second half of Fist Bump redeems the song for me, especially the guitar solo. No idea why people still like shitting on it aside from being connected to Forces of all games and because they heard the first verse that was uploaded (which is understandably pretty bad of a first impression) and because of the title. Instrumental is great as a whole too.
I myself think the Lost World OST is better as a whole but more bland I suppose. I'm not really a dubstep fan and the synths for many of the Forces songs can get really ear grating and sometimes even ruin really good songs like Luminous Forest or the second part of Network Terminal

youtu.be/k64AugV3E7o
Find out where they're getting all of this talent for literally every release and pay them more.

>No idea why people still like shitting on it aside from being connected to Forces of all games and because they heard the first verse that was uploaded (which is understandably pretty bad of a first impression)
Fist Bump is a weird song.
It's terrible the first few times you hear it, but the more you listen to it the more you start liking it.

youtube.com/watch?v=8V1pMQKDPco DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT

the usa soundtrack has some really greats tracks that stand up to the japan ost definitely
like tidal tempest youtube.com/watch?v=6RZt4JoD1eE

Shadow had a weirdly good ost.
youtube.com/watch?v=HnMPWgOVGCQ
I had no idea this song was by Powerman 5000, and it's hard to tell that when listening to them.
They did the same thing for Ffxiv (xv?), where the game songs are super heavy but their normal music doesn't even come close.
This is half a plug, go listen to powerman 5000 they're good

us Metallic Madness is really good
youtube.com/watch?v=0LioLi_9aec

I couldn't dare say this on here back when it came out but I never thought the song was bad. The singing always and still sounds kinda, I dunno, monotone? Kinda sounds like he's struggling to get his voice to the intensity in Crush40's songs.
But the composition was great and it was always as catchy and good as the average sonic song to me.

Yeah, that's basically how I was as well. It isn't my favorite song in the series but I do like it a lot

>The singing always and still sounds kinda, I dunno, monotone?
Yeah, his voice could use some work. If they keep them around (doubtful since crush 40 was brought back for TSR) then I'd be excited to see them improve over time.

This user didn't get the point of the question but he also answered it correctly. Black Knight has a fucking phenomenal OST even by Sonic standards and the majority of Crush 40's best work as well as the best non-C40 vocal theme in the series in With Me.

Game itself is somewhat underrated too; tighten up movement a little and remove wagglan and it would be a top-tier 3D Sonic.

Attached: 1532132089898.jpg (624x448, 54K)

Yeah, Douglas Robb wasn't the greatest pick out there, but it's hard to beat Bowling for Soup (who were a perfect fit for Sonic vocal music aside from Crush 40 and some others)
I don't think they will. Chances are they'll either have Crush 40 back for a couple more games or outsource to another band again

the entire Shadow the Hedgehog soundtrack

SEGA's gotta keep the franchise afloat despite Sonic Team's incompetence and their own corporate lack of understanding of franchise-management somehow.

>Chances are they'll either have Crush 40 back for a couple more games or outsource to another band again
Not sure how I feel about that to be honest.
On one hand, Crush 40 has put out some of the best sonic (and vocal game music) songs ever.
On the other, they've been doing it for a long time and it's starting to show with their live performances.
also the second half of Green Light Ride isn't that good

Silver's probably the main reason I really like time travel/time related stuff.

the rest of that soundtrack is mostly ass though. just like the game. such a waste. The kinect is truly a worse fate than even wii u

I want to believe that Sonic Team made the PS2 version worse just to spite Sony for forcing them to switch engines.

Honestly I prefer the regular version
youtu.be/4KkQCxXUEBQ

Yeah, I'm leaning more towards them getting someone else to do a vocal song for the next game, if they even have one, since prior to Forces we had a 7 year drought. The question is who they would get and who could do a good job
It's already been mentioned a couple times ITT but youtu.be/tJjxKhjR9H4

Attached: Crush 40.png (600x450, 445K)

I'm pretty sure the ps2 version was actually some sort of alpha version that wasn't supposed to ship but did due to publisher side meddling. I remember the same thing happened to doa2 hardcore. There was some bullshit going on with ps2 ports at the time. It was a weaker system so it needed more optimization than gamecube and xbox.

youtu.be/-CMJxF3MlNQ
I remember this game's first boss was a huge casual filter.

Everybody agrees that this game is fantastic though; if anything the music was weaker than other Sonic games of its time albeit still very good.

I don't like the soul/soulless meme but Transformed definitely had Soul: AGES, the Segata Sanshiro easter egg, the story of the Skies of Arcadia director crying tears of joy when Sumo showed him the SoA track and playable Vyse, and the whole thing where Danica Patrick is in the game because she put some of her own money into it since she's just a big fan of SEGA.

Assuming the next game might (is?) an adventure remake, they'll probably grab crush 40 one last time and let them go all out for it.
Imagine sa1r having a soundtest with every crush 40 song resung/remastered as a last hoora for them.

ASRT is a legit contender for best cart racer, along with DKR and CTR.

Unless you meant Sonic TEAM Racing, in which case the game is bland but the song's still good.

Transformed is probably my favorite racer out there, it's always fun to go back to despite some of the polish issues it has every now and then.
TSR had such a good OST too. It's a shame that game died out so quickly, I enjoyed it and would have loved to have more tracks and characters added post launch.

I would love that, but it's a pipe dream until confirmation.
Provided they outsource again, and pick a lesser known group, I would love to see Anarbor do a vocal Sonic song. Their style has changed drastically over the years, but I wouldn't mind a more laid back Sonic rock theme.

Yes yes very nice indeed

Can we extend that spiritual successors by former fangame makers? Because I've been playing Spark The Electric Jester and holy shit the music is good.

etc. etc. The game itself is very good too; great at giving you the speed of Sonic but with really satisfyingly lengthy levels and some cool combat with some Kirby inspiration.

I'm considering picking these up since they've somehow managed to make a 3d spin off sonic game better than the current 3d releases. Why doesn't sega just taximan them?

I don't have the musical knowledge or ear for it, but it was kinda just a thought since Spring Yard Zone sounds pretty unique in the whole series.

Haven't played the sequel but the first is very good so far. As far as I know it's a one-man project as well; it's the guy who made Sonic Before The Sequel IIRC.

Man, this too is a decent sonic like game. Really scratched my advance itch when it came out. Glad mania is a thing these days.

I want to play FP2 already

It's not Sonic without it.

The only gripe I have with Spark the Electric Jester is that running up a slight incline for a couple seconds will bleed off all your speed, no matter how much you have.
Never mind running up a wall, something they expect you to do quite a few times. You've just gotta get ready to dash a fuckload of times.
Conversely, dashing down even the slightest decline will bring you beyond your usual top speed if you hold the direction you're moving out of it.
It just feels like you have no inertia whenever you're moving upward and a ton when you're moving down.
The only way to (slightly) alleviate it is to have the right type. Like rolling with Air or just using Board, and it might be placebo but Ice seems to help too. Even then, none of them really fix it completely.
Also, youtu.be/TGC4ce_AVcc just straight up sounds like SA1's soundtrack but someone has a head cold. I fucking love it.

I get what you're saying. I eventually just got into a rhythm of dashing during certain portions of loops to keep momentum. The desert level that gives you Board immediately is so fun; it's designed to just keep you moving constantly and let you do the whole thing with Board if you want to.

HIGH
HEELS

This is one of Sonic's weaker songs. I'd dare say it's bad. It doesn't even sound finished. Like it was just a concept they were going to throw away.
How did it become used for hidden palace zone? I thought it was a versus mode song. Also, didn't HPZ have an unused song on the original Sonic 2 cartridge?(It also sucked)

That isn't what I meant as far as songs. Secondly they used that song in the vs mode. I meant the level itself.

And it's hidden palace zone because it was designed to be a hidden part of the level.

Third, that song that was unused was for a cutscene that never happened apparently.

Sheesh, I'm so glad they cut this, it sounds AWFUL. I'm instantly annoyed in the first few notes, and it doesn't get any better. I'm only gritting and bearing listening to it while typing this post. Thank god it just ended. I don't want to hear that in my life ever again.

I was trying very hard to impress upon you my true feelings. I'm dead fucking serious, that song annoys the shit out of me.

Heck, With Me is so good that the Crush 40 cover is a distinct downgrade from the original version. That's just not a thing that happens with C40 covers.

And this doesn't even delve into the instrumental stage music. This is the game with Dragon's Lair, Molten Mine and Faraway Avalon.

more like chronicles but whatever

youtube.com/watch?v=QDsGxivYRnk
youtube.com/watch?v=2JfHmMZV-To

Chronicles, Boom, and Forces are the trinity of modern Sonic games with bad soundtracks.

Chronicles & Boom were outsourced, music included, and the former had its music fucked late in development requiring a really quick shitty OST to be made. Forces was an in-house Sonic Team game that was cooking for a long time. It had no reason to shit the bed musically.

It was just Ohtani and the others using bad synths, I think. Or they wanted an OST to go with Infinite's persona of using illusions and shit

Mega Man 11 is a game that used bad synths. The compositions themselves were still fine. Half of the Modern/Avatar levels have just plain mediocre-to-poor music and the Classic stages are just a travesty musically.

If I had to put Classic aside since it'd win: Advance/Rush, Generations and postboot-Archie were the peaks of modern Sonic aesthetic.

Attached: 1565898484759.gif (500x356, 3.35M)

>The compositions themselves were still fine
This was proven in the piano instrumental dlc which should've been the base music but whatever.

In that case I have no idea what happened, maybe they wanted a different direction/sound, but what they wanted did not fit the series at all

And Unleashed as well, still the best looking Modern Sonic game

I'd recommend listening to 11's AST. 9 & 10's were very good, but 11's is comparatively way better because it takes more stylistic liberties to make up for how samey they all ended up sounding in game. Impact Man's Arranged theme is the shit.

Why do some people like Blaze so much? I don't hate her but I don't see anything special about her either. What makes her different from the other dozen Sonic's friends?

Attached: 1489561536103.png (1500x1508, 611K)

Because she is literally sonic's counterpart from another world done properly. Also the games were fun as hell and blaze has a cool role on their planet and arguably a villan so crazy even eggman questions him sometime.

Everybody jerks off the Rush OST, but Rush Adventure hardly gets mentioned.

He was kinda funny but I don't think any boss will ever be more bullshit than kuhn in fighting vipers 2. The version of him you unlock is even toned down because he was too damn strong. Literally all the best moves akira and jacky had at the time sped up and high damage.

Metal sonic is still funny though.

She was just naked, so it would be like female Sonic, but someone on /sthg/ got butthurt and made the clothes edit. I guess it's supposed to sorta resemble classic Amy's getup.

This game definitely had it's moments. And good menu themes

Fixed?

I'd rather them just stick with whatever they had in heros and keep them as the bulk and skull crew of sonic with tommy the ninja leading them

That's even worse. I thought the nakedness was just a bonus. Everyone knows that female Sonic characters must be clothed. That's a rule. Unless you're a Dobson and take the comics as canon.

Unreleased CD version

I'm 100% positive that that song was just one of his many unused songs from Jet Set now.

Don't listen to He's a different user. I'm the same user you replied to, and Heroes is the game I learned to hate them. I didn't even know who they were before Heroes. But they were so fucking annoying, I was annoyed I needed to play their story to get the best ending.

Vector needs to lose the earphones. It's just a senseless accessory that a 12 year old would put on his OC. It makes no sense. So what if he likes music? The chain is also gaudy. His design was clearly meant to be some kind of DJ, but they repurposed him as a Detective, and now he looks and sounds retarded. It's fine for his voice to sound a bit gravelly, but get an actor with better range. The guy they use always sounds like he's yelling, no matter the situation. Is that supposed to be a joke? He can't hear his own voice because he has the headphones on, so he yells? I just don't understand.
They should drop this detective agency crap, and just say they're bounty hunters or hitmen or mercenaries.

GET RID OF CHARMY, HE'S NOT SALVAGEABLE. HE'S JUST ANNOYING.

Espio is tough, because reserved characters don't shine as well as outgoing characters. Since you learn so little about them, unless you have significant enough screen time to learn their nuances. Espio should have some kind of motivation though. Simply sticking with Vector and Charmy for reasons unknown, makes him boring and pointless. Why does he do what does?

I also neglected to mention Cream's awful voice. They are trying far too hard to be nice and sugary and sweet, and it just comes across as obnoxious. Both her voice and personality. Cream is actually TOO useful. She can run fast, fly, swim, and attack via her chao partner. All without trying, because she's some kind of child prodigy. Cream needs something to balance the sweetness. She can't simply be little miss perfect all the time.

No, a lot of the time if you are boosting you can end up in a bottomless pit.

Rush is the best game in the series fuck off

Agree. Rush Adventure was fine but the trick sound effect earrape was really annoying. Colors DS was good too but its level design is not as solid and I don't like the wisps.

As for the 3D boost games, bleh. Stilted sideways movement, no vertical movment tricks like in rush, mostly on-rails. Granted, the Rush games got on-rails a lot too, but it just feels way better in 2D with fluid movement and spacious level design. Might sound weird but I'd prefer if the boost games were 2D only, Rush-style.

There is not a single bad track in Unleashed.
youtu.be/fbW2_zmM3N0

good soundtracks can make a mediocre game pretty decent. and you can't truly feel a soundtrack unless you have played the game and felt what that music is trying to convey. 99% of sonic games have great soundtracks, and there is only a few bad games.

The Genesis inspired songs are flatout bad because they weren't trying to put creative spins on existing songs like Generations, The Avatar and Modern Sonic songs are fine
The final phase of the Death Egg Robot is absolute kino and I like The Light of Hope

Will we ever get a true sequel to the first Sonic Riders? Zero Gravity sucked all of the skill out of formula and dumbed down the speed and tracks so it doesnt count,

That doesn't really count since afaik it just uses shittier versions of tracks from other Sonic games.
