This is probably the one Sonic game I haven’t played. The sprites look awesome and I love all the hilarious animations they gave them. I like the voices too.
I know the game was released in Japanese arcades but have any of you actually seen a cabinet anywhere?
Finally got Generations. I knew nothing of all the challenge levels. Seems this one will be sticking around for awhile.
Played it last night. I was not ready for the final part and raged. You have to escape the base in a certain amount of time otherwise it’s instant game over with no ending and no retry and my stupid save state didn’t work…

The game is a lot of fun though, especially if you can get your controls right. I’d love to get 2 other people to run through it with me simultaneously.
So…Sonic 231…FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
i need to pick up my comics soon

If anyone’s interested, 360achievements has the achievement list for Sonic CD up:

Love Sonic. Love all the cool stuff on this thread. So why haven’t they ported that arcade game yet?
My guess would be because it was supposed to be played with a track ball, which isn’t exactly a preferred method for control these days. But regardless, when you play it with ahem other methods a d-pad usually works just fine so I’m not sure if that’s the reason or not.
Sonic seems to be on a roll now (no pun intended) so maybe we’ll see the arcade game get an official re-release one of these days. Heh, I wonder what the fighting game community would think of an X360/PSN port of Sonic Fighters.
I would get that if it had online.
All I want is a troll-free date for Sonic CD…
Can’t you play Sonic CD on the Gamecube though?
This rerelease uses Sonic 2 physics…or some such from what I read @_@
I’ve never owned a cube. The PC version I have isn’t very practical. I did have it emulated, but I’m too lazy to hunt it down.
Just the Spin Dash, as I’m pretty sure the physics for everything else are pretty much the same or extremely identical. There was a video that previewed the game (I posted it but SegaSecretService had the video removed from youtube) and in the options menu, you can choose to use either the original Spin Dash, or the one from Sonic 2. They have them as two little icons.
And I’ll mention it again… if I hadn’t already. You get the choice of the US and Japanese soundtracks. Probably isn’t going to be a sound test in the game which sucks since you can’t idle in CD for more than 3 minutes or it’s game over.
Know what’d be cool? A per stage music selection.
Also! Sonic 2 SpinDash? That would be weird…
You have a subscription? It isn’t out yet where I shop for comics.
Also, this just hit the web: http://vgmdb.net/album/30305

I recommend reading from 160 onwards then getting into Sonic Universe. The book has been very good since 160 thanks to the current writer.
Dunno if they offer it digitally though >_<
30 years later was actually good…they have most of the comics on youtube…
