that music was lightyears ahead of anything else i could play as a video game,it's futuristic techno qualities,i loved near all of it and yes i also loved the intro outro music ALOT ! but what made this game stand out for me was that instead of a normal game with no save functions,we got to play a sonic game where every single level mattered,we had to use the time traveling abilities to go back and forth in time and what amazed me was that you could actually change the the future levels if you played the game correctly,this feature meant that i played through sonic cd a number of times before i actually figured out the correct way to get through the acts and complete it properly and unlock the "good ending" THIS right there was the main reason i loved Sonic CD,every other aspect like the amazing intro outro and special ending,the amazing dreamy inspiring hip with the times "very 90's" music and the solid look of the game not to mention the cool bonus stages were all just a big massive bonus. We really need to think back on the mindset of the player back then,Sonic CD was NOT just sonic with cd quality music and a cute intro,it was SONIC and he was one bad ass character,ultra cool,ultra fast and apparently capable of time travel !īack then,that intro was amazing,it really truly was amazing and it still is to me today,also the music (pal/jap) man. Now,we move on to the release of the megacd/segacd - i like most who could actually afford one back then were falling in love with it's cd audio and to some extent it's great fmv,games like road avenger and cobra command astounded me and actually still do !
ok i played all of the sonic games as they were released,i was an early adopter of the megacd and prior to that i enjoyed both sonic 1 and sonic 2 HOWEVER sonic 2 for me was one step forward and two steps back,don't get me wrong,i think sonic 2 was amazing but it didn't do it for me the same as sonic 1 and for that i didn't play the game as much as i played sonic 1,also by this time sonic was feeling a little bit on the cheap side,too easy and lacking in details and content,this is just what i felt about the game and you have to remember that back then most of us had not only sega machines but also nintendo and sonic 2 was not hitting the same kind of vibe as say super mario bros 3 and especially and more importantly,it wasn't hitting the high note of the likes of super mario world,a game that you can sink your teeth into with battery backup and lots of levels,secrets twists n turns,and to me for a sonic game,sonic 2 should have been "more".
