Sonic Mania Plus gives players another reason to return to the retro world of Sonic the Hedgehog. But what about Modern Sonic? Sonic Forces did disappoint a lot of fans but that doesn't mean the modern version of SEGA's mascot didn't have some incredible adventures for players to enjoy. Here are the top 5 modern Sonic games.
Sonic the Hedgehog has a long and turbulent history in videogames, but which are the best games featuring the blue bur?
Generations over Mania? Please… Generations doesnt have any new ideas in the levels/bosses.
Also a top 7 of Sonic games shouldn’t have any 3D crap and contain at least one of the 8-bit titles.
Sonic CD getting snubbed is weird. Number 1 is definitely interchangable between Sonic 2 and Sonic 3 & Knuckles.
Top 7 for me
7 cd
6 mania
5 Frontiers
4 sonic 3
3 sonic 1
2 sonic and knuckles
1 sonic 2
Sometimes I feel like the Sonic Advanced games just didn’t exist with how much it’s always forgotten 😭
The writing duo behind Sonic games like Sonic Colors and Sonic Lost World reveal they have little creative control over their game scripts.
They need to start letting people take inspiration from the comics, there's a ton of great stuff to take inspiration from.
Pretty much confirmed that SEGA controls everything about sonic no derivations fr
Nothing new sonic forces was meant to be far darker then sega got cold feet and they did the same old power of friendship ending
The Wii release of 2010's Sonic Colors received a remake for modern consoles, but what about the Nintendo DS sister title?
Back in the day you would get cases every now and then where the handheld version of a game was better. Chrono Trigger DS comes to mind. Not only did it have the cut-scenes from the PS1 release it also had new content that tied into Chrono Cross.
I really liked what Bioware did with Sonic Chronicles. It was a really cool (Mario-like) RPG. I think Sonic can work very well outside of the A -> B Runner Platformer. I would like to see them sit down and figure out what Sonic needs. I think the game series could do well getting the Mario Oddyssey treatment of opening it up and doing some new things, but keeping mementos of the glory days in there.
Either Sonic Unleashed or Colors need to go in favor of Sonic Heroes.
Sonic Unleashed had the potential to be my favourite Sonic game, the Day Time stages were brilliant. No Sonic game since has had stages as good as those. But the Werehog stages really damaged this game, they weren't even fun, just slow and laborious. If it wasn't for those stages, that game would make my top 3 probably, but because they exist, the game doesn't even make my top 5.
My top 5 is hard to choose because it changes a lot. But my favourite is Sonic Adventure 2. It's one of my all time favourite games. I spent more time on that game than I did any other on the Dreamcast. Sonic Adventure, Heroes, Generations, Colours and Shuffle (unpopular choice, but I loved it) would take up the other spaces.
I’m surprised none of the Sonic Advance or Sonic Rush games are on this list
sonic adventure 1,2 and heroes i only consider as great modern sonic cause they were fully 3d platform, bit of puzzle to solve and special stages. and they didnt have silly gimmicks like shitty 2d section, horrible 2d sonic(especially physics), werehog and especially the boost.
