So why should someone buy this when the fans already made 157477397598 remakes of the original games?

Forever and Absolute are the Taxman/Stealth decomps with more features added, user.

based retard

Dumb consoomer.

So they wouldn't exist without the Taxman/Stealth games. Making them inferior. A bunch of meaningless options and "content" don't make them better.

Holy fuck user stop with the goalpost moving and just accept you got something wrong.

Dumb contrarian doomer.
Try not being a fag for once.

Who are you quoting?

>goalpost
You Pokemon fucks need to stop using words you don't know the meaning of.

>45 bucks to play classic Sonic again
I don't get it. This smells like SoJ.

Because I like Sonic and am not poor.

Is that a bad thing? SOJ always did Sonic right. SOA turned him into unlikable cringe.

There isn't.
Sonic 1 & 2 decomps: github.com/Rubberduckycooly/Sonic-1-2-2013-Decompilation
github.com/Rubberduckycooly/Sonic-1-2-2013-Decompilation
Sonic CD 2011 decomp: github.com/Rubberduckycooly/Sonic-CD-11-Decompilation
Both are based on the mobile versions released by Taxman and Stealth (who would later go on to develop Sonic Mania). The decomps allow them to be natively ran on PC and these versions come with the original game in addition to a plethora of new features, such as widescreen, playable characters not in the original, mod support, increased framerate, and more.
Sonic 3 A.I.R.: sonic3air.org/
S3AIR is similar, the original game with more features like widescreen, increased framerate, and mod support. You just need a copy of the Steam release of S3&K.
Don't give Sega $40 for 4 old games with fucking Denuvo slapped onto them.

>Denuvo
Oh noes! My entitlement!

Why the fuck would I play unofficial fan shit if I can play the real deal? Maybe I want to support an official release? Yea Forums always asks retarded questions

>"Why the hell hasn't Sega rereleased Sonic 3&K in widescreen? Yeah I know I could just play Sonic 3 AIR but Sega needs to release the official widescreen taxman port
>Sega releases it
>"UGH why did Sega even rerelease the games for the millionth time, any real fan would just play Sonic 3 AIR."

Can you people decide what it is you want?

user, you do know that Denuvo causes performance issues, right? You want frame hitching? Hell, I couldn't even PLAY Mania because Denuvo kept on crashing the game. Only after it was removed was I able to play it.

Also the size of the Mania .exe file drastically reduced when they removed Denuvo finally. From like a couple hundred MBs to like 3 MB. Also finally opened up a real modding scene.
I'm expecting that somehow the 3&K remake is gonna be extracted from Origins and made to be able to play separately.

Sega isn't Nintendo, she wouldn't DMCA the fans... right?

they haven't dmca'd any sonic port or fan hack yet
as long as they're asking for any money they are fine

If they actually DMCA something like AIR or Forever/Absolute I know that something's changed in upper management.

they aren't asking* fuck

>Sega isn't Nintendo
LOL
LMAO

That was a stupid move. It would be a KO if they actually DMCA a fan engine.

>are the taxman/stealth ports, literally, therefore they are inferior.
Wow, thats flawless logic. Also its a bit rich for you to claim we are contrarian.

Moving the goalpost is a logical fallacy where no matter what anyone says its impossible to prove you wrong because you keep changing your argument to add on more and more stipulations.

Are you fucking retarded?

Except, that's not what I said at all. You an't massacre a quote and use it to make yourself look good.
When did I change my argument? A bunch of filler settings don't mean they're suprior.

>Can't add Knuckles to Sonic CD because muh level design even though it's actually the most condusive game to his play style
>Tails is in a the games despite him being an insufferable faggot who deserves the woodchipper got degenerate pedophile appeal.

tails is only playable on cd because he was already playable on the 2011 port
you can play with knuckles on the cd decompilation btw

>he doesn't know
Lmao
What a retard

Since the most popular fan engines require official games to run, delisting the games takes the out of the equation. Apparently if you already own the games, they don't disappear from your library.

Tails makes sense as CD is set after Sonic 2. Adding Knuckles doesn't.
Five others said the same thing. Learn to read, dummy.

but knuckles is playable on the sonic 1 and 2 ports, its clear that this isn't because of the games stories.

This. For years, I talk about AIR here and people are like "lol what's that? when's Taxman port already?" Now that Origins is coming out, everyone and their mom suddenly know what AIR is? Fuck off

SMB Banana Mania gets nitpicked and panned before release.
Ninja Gaiden Master Collection gets nitpicked and panned before release.
Sonic Origins gets nitpicked and panned before release.
Each of those games had fan demand. Each were ruined by autistic doomers. You entitled spergs are the reason video games are in their current state.

A novelty, really. Knuckles was originally only playable due to the lock-on feature. An easter egg, basically. Spergs throwing a tantrum because he isn't in CD are just that - spergs.

Nintendo released both SM64 as part of the 3D All-Stars collection and as a NSO Expansion Pack title so they're not this bad, but on the other hand 3D All-Stars' limited release was way worse. Hm.

This is why SEGA shouldn't listen to their consistently inconsistent, but consistently autistic fans.
These are the same retards who talk about Classic Sonic being overexposed when he's only been in three games in 20 years.

Nah, it was clear that people liked Knuckles and didn't give a shit about Tails which is why he was marketed way more and carried the second movie. Stop fucking children and worshipping Jews, okay?

People would be more happy with it if it didn't cost 45 dollarydoos and Sega also didn't plan to remove all current single releases of all four games.

>Sega also didn't plan to remove all current single releases of all four games
the m2 versions and sega ages versions will stay, as will the mobile games

So they're only removing the Steam ROMs?

So, they're removing the inferior versions? The versions that people don't want, and replacing them with modern versions that they do want?
Well, I am shocked.

Only S3K is being removed, so it fucks with AIR.
But of course you can download a 3K Rom in like 2 minutes so whatever. Really this might just be the last time we get original Icecap, Carnival Night, and Launch Base music legally.

honestly I kinda get it
imagine being john normie and wanting to play the genesis sonic game and having 49843543098 different versions of the same game on steam alone
Origins seems to be amazingly well made, so it makes sense to delist the rest

You can still get 1 2 and CD for free though because the phone versions are free. Just dump the APKs to your PC and download the decomps and mods of choice.

Now, now. The cool kids will call you a shill.

That exact Steam rom for S3K is on Archive at least. And what? Only S3K? That seems fishy.

oh the price is egregious
I won't get it until a sale comes out
I just think it makes sense from sega's standpoint

Sonic Retro has the APKs up for download.

1 2 and CD going away means shit when you can download the files from the Android version on Sonic Retro.
Sucks for normies but we can't save everyone.
