BT writes: Last week, the BT staff counted down its favorite tracks in the history of video game music. Much to my embarrassment, I admitted that Sonic the Hedgehog 2‘s “Chemical Plant Zone” holds a special place in my heart. In order to rectify this, I must now subject you to the other side of the scale: a Sonic soundtrack that is so bad it has become legend.
Sonic Adventure 2 contains gaming’s best worst music.
Sonic Frontiers has won over Japan after years of poor sales.
For someone like me that started playing games at late 90s it was heartbreaking to see what happened to SEGA. Good to hear this because how things were going in the last years for them. I remember the time when they closed a lot of arcades in Japan. Or even when Microsoft almost bought them several years ago.
I have a feeling the sales will drop a ton the next week since everyone figured out it's barebones and a technical mess. Hype and name brand can only get you so far.
I wanted to like this game but they did everything possible to disappoint. Maybe they can use this as a stepping stone for a future title, but so far this isn't it.
For over thirty years, Sonic the Hedgehog has provided memorable video game music and brought many artists from around the world together.

SPC celebrates the occasion with a special top ten list, presenting the site's picks for the very best of the Blue Blur's biggest and boldest titles. After you've checked out the picks here, which Sonic games would you select as your personal favorites?"
wheres sonic 06 lol. I know im in the minority but if you can look past all the glitches I actually liked the game.
I have played the game more than I'm willing to admit. Even beat all the DLC as well, and nearly S ranked everything including the DLC.
The game had good graphics for the time, and a fantastic soundtrack. If only it had an extra year of development it could have been a decent game. People keep harping on the kiss at the end of the game as if its a big deal. It really isn't (people kiss their cats and dogs all the time, and no one freaks out about that).
They try extra hard to hate on the game, and while it does have a multitude of unacceptable flaws and had serious development issues (Yuji Naka quit SEGA early on during the project which definitely caused some internal struggles at Sonic Team), there are some positive aspects about the game that people don't give it credit for.
Hmmm, this is kinda cheating, but I would rate Sonic 3 & Knuckles as #1, rather than having the two games separately occupy #2 and #3.
That was literally the only game I played for YEARS.
In any order
Sonic Adventure 1
Sonic Adventure 2
Sonic Heroes
Sonic Shuffle
Sonic Generations
Sonic Lost World
Sonic Unleashed
Sonic the Hedgehog 2
Sonic CD
Sonic 3 & Knuckles
I applaud the title. I'm a huge fan of entertainingly horrible films.
No. Sonic Adventure 2's soundtrack is not bad at all... Maybe it's the nostalgia talking, but I have such a soft spot in my heart for the whole soundtrack. I love every song, especially the main theme.
Lots of memories, and I like the easygoing lyrics and fun messages. Even the rap songs that play in Knuckles' segments are just fun! Nice change of pace from the Slaughterhouse, Eminem, Nas, and Lupe Fiasco that I listen to :P
I'm sad now. I love this soundtrack :(
Living on the edge of tomorrow..!
