The Best and Worst Sonic Games

One of the most recognizable characters in history, Sonic has definitely had some greatness and some absolute crap.

Sonic CD

This game deserves to be where it is. Best Sonic game ever made and nothing will ever top it. As far as Sonic R, I never played it and I am GLAD I never did or I would probably hurt a cute little puppy. Anyways, great choices for both lists

Sonic!

Nice video. I had Sonic R and it wasn't that bad for an 8 year old who likes sonic. But now it wouldn't be that fun. Just wanted to throw that out there.

=/

My friends and I played it after school when we were in 2nd grade. I actually thought it was fun back then. I guess I don't remember the music.

Must... Play... Mario...

Must... Play... Mario... Kart.... AHHHHHHHHHH DIE LITTLE DOGGIE!

noo

dont kill dogie

HELL YEA

The 2D sonic sidescroller games rock my ass off!! some are even better than a couple mario classics (HOLY SHIT REALLY???). Ive gotta try sonic cd, ive heard its awesome from so many.

by the way: this was the first top ten i saw from screw attack, and its a great 1. thnx 4 the post jose.

Captain Falcon: FALCON PUNCH!!!

Admiral Ackbar: its a trap!

(everything that ever exsisted explodes in a time and space ripping vortex explosion)

thank you!

thanks to you, i didnt buy sonic 3-D blast on VC. i got sonic spinball instead, and it's sweet!

Worst Sonic game??

Hey wait, WHAT?! Sonic R, the worst Sonic game of all time? I loved the game(Golden Sonic ftw)! I didn't think Sonic 3D was that bad either, once I got the hang of it.

If there is one Sonic game I particularily dislike, it has to be Sonic Heroes. Too much puzzling, too little running, and the two companions always following you are just a nuisance. They should have just given Sonic all the abilities (speed, strength and flying), and gotten rid of all the other meaningless characters. I realize there is a storyline involved, but I would gladly trade it for some gameplay.

Anyway, too bad Sonic R doesn't work in Vista or XP. I want to try it again :3

yeah...

yeah same with me. not the sonic heroes part, but the thing about you wanting to play sonic R is the same with me and sonic CD. i still have it, but it doesn't work on XP.

Sonic CD works on XP with a patch

When my dad upgraded our computer a long time ago, I waited and searched for months trolling on rom sites filled with naughty stuff unfit for an 10 year old and I finally found a patch that allowed the game to work on XP. It is called the Korama's patch or simply SonicCDfix.

I have to agree that Sonic CD was the best sonic game ever. Believe it or not I still had my Sonic CD disk out even before I saw or read about this video! (I got it in my hand now.) I hope it works on Vista!

Wow, that music is as out of

Wow, that music is as out of place as the music in Marvel Vs. Capcom 2. The only difference is MvC2 didn't suck!

Agree

I totally agree with the placement of the games. I haven't played any of the ones that got terrible ratings and everything, but when I was younger I got Sonic and Knuckles and Sonic CD for my computer. They were sooo much fun. I just wish that they would work on my newer computers...so sad when it didn't work out...

I seriously almost cried

I seriously almost cried when I heard that music in Sonic R.

i have to admit...

i actually liked Sonic R.
i dont anymore,
but at one time, i thought it was pretty sweet.
although i do remember i thought it was really hard.
little did i know it was because of crappy controls.
ahh, the ignorance of a seven year old.

Sonic R the worst?

Which version are you talking about? The PC Direct3D version wasn't that bad. Also, if I may say IMO, Sonic R and Labyrinth need to be traded places.

SONIC!!

I <3 SONIC

I would have swapped...

Sonic Labyrinth and Sonic R. Sonic R actually does have 1 redeeming quality! The hands look like ice cream bars! Soooo...yummy!!!

Sonic Shuffle

I enjoyed this ALOT.

I always found it more fun than Mario Party and it's definatly better than the newer ones which get worse each time.

Can you believe they

Can you believe they actually put 3D blast on VC? I always thought VC was supposed to put in GOOD games.

Uh oh, I don't have access to any Mario Kart game at my house! I'M IN A PERMENANT RAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol jk

ARE U KIDDING ME!!!

ARE U REALLY KIDDING ME! Sonic Fighters was a great game it should have atleast made #5 in the best!!!! U guys just dont like to experement with the moves they give u it is a challange! Also sonic r wasn't that bad! it was really fun(just wish they pput diff music tho) but thats not the point! if it was so bad y is it in sonic mega colletion they have the best old sonic games! sonic fighters is also on there!

SA2

I'm just surprised that Sonic Adventure 2: Battle didn't make it in. I realize it was a remake, but it certainly blows the first adventure out of the water. I still play it to this day.

Sonic R Sux

Whats the point of the game Sonic is soooo slow he shoud be like KAZUUUUMMMM

Sega

speaking of sega they should make a top ten genesis or dreamcast games list

Sonic R is not that bad. its bad but it shouldn't be number 1

Top 10 Genesis coming soon

They are making Top 10 Genesis games. They announced it in Sidescrollers.

The worse games aren't so bad as these reviewers are saying

Sonic R The worst Game? I don't think it is so bad, and the music isn't that terrible either. Also the graphics aren't crap for back then when the saturn was around. I thought they were pretty good. I agree with sonic 3d blast though. Sonic spinball i didn't like either. the ending sucked after all that trouble to beat it. and yes sonic cd was a masterpiece. I wish that sonic could get revived I am not like one of these executioner reviewers who want to see a great franchise go down. Is that entertaining for you guys to see a game title die? Then go and play some other game, I hope that Sonic makes a comeback, It would suck to see Sonic games die.

Why Sonic R's music sucks

When I play a racing game, I want to get an energetic feeling, and usually the music helps, like in PGR4. But Sonic R's music sounds more soothing and relaxing, and not energetic.

Somewhere a young child of

Somewhere a young child of 30 just played Sonic the Hedgehog on the 360 and relised that its time to move out of the basement. Luckily, that was my neighbor and he needed a life to begin with. So I showed my friend good Sonic games. That set them stright.

games are fun, but not when they're about learning, unless they're fun, but the they're not so its okay.

sonic r is so bad

even looking at it makes me trhow over :X

Fan-made game Sonic game?

During the introduction of this video it seems like theres a fan-made PC Sonic game that seems very similar to Sonic Adventure 1, anyone know of this game? Got any links or info about it? I'm highly interested.

Also I can't believe they hated Sonic R that much, its one of my favorite games of all time, with nice graphics (for 32-bit generation) and some of my favorite music of all time. Ah well.

I know how you feel

I thought NCAA Basketball for the SNES was a pretty good game, but when I saw Craig's VGV of it, I exploded in anger!

WTF

I have not played sonic next gen but it sounds horrible

Yay

They was all in the right place

Sonic R

I didn't think it was that bad, of course I had only a couple courses that I played, the rest were hard.

sonic r

well im afraid to post this but sonic r is the worst game ever because its the only cursed game ever

oh god the tails doll

hes a legend, but im not scared i think if i ever saw him i wou

I'll admit to being behind on things here, but...

Someone please explain the Tail doll phenomenon?

The #1 cause of death is living. Thus, the only way to cheat death is not to live in the first place. So forget about not dying; death is inevitable. Concentrate on living.

my first game

sonic r was the first game i ever worked to get... and i beat it with every single character! my life is horrible

......

Meh, I dont like your reviews its stale and weird humor that does not work. Angry video game nerd is awesome thou.

I agree that Sonic CD was a great game, but its way too over hyped. Sonic the hedgehog 2 was a much better game. It had maybe the most badass last boss and side boss till the advance games came along. Sonic CD's last boss was very mild, uncreative, and very easy to beat.And the level where you fight Metal Sonic was not epic enough.

And yes Sonic Racer is a damn bad game, but the music in the game is why you remembered it. It was sissy girly music that made you feel like a fruit while playing. However Sonic heroes is maybe the grand daddy of garbage. The whole game you play as the power character, and cough cough sonic is not a power character.One good thing about it, Metal Sonic looks really badass in his new form. The form before he transforms into a gay dragon. But.......you never fight him in that form, you see him for 10 seconds then its dragon form. Its like they tried to put sprinkles and what partly killed sonic. All the damn worthless other characters in it. Sonic, tails, Amy, Knuckles, robotnik, and maybe Shadow should be the only characters.

Plus, how egotistic did they make sonic in this game by calling his team Team sonic. I mean there is 2 other members in your team you ego prick lol.

I agree with this for the

I agree with this for the most part, but I don't agree with your pick on the #1 Worst game. I loved Sonic R. You can say what you want, but I thought it was a big, heaping, steaming pile of absolute... WIN!

I snapped the controller

I snapped the controller when I played R sonic. I was horible...

Hillarious

This video is funny as hell.XD

I completely agree with this video though I had a copy of Sonic R on the pc but my copy didn't have that God awful music playing. At the time It made the game suckier than i was but now I'm thinking I was beter off.

Sonic Adventure 2 shoulda

Sonic Adventure 2 shoulda been in the worst games, as it started the trend for shit 3D Sonic games.

The original Sonic Adventure is defo the best of all time n'all.

Why the Master System version of Sonic the Hedgehog was hinted at as being shit I'll never know, I enjoyed it a hell of a lot more than any of the Mega Drive Sonic games. If they're on about the Game Gear version though I can understand, as you can't see shit coming (much the same with the Sonic 2s of the 8-bit variety).

The thing that surprised me most about this video though is the voice over's attempt at comedy.. it wasn't a complete and utter FAIL. Hats off to the guy for not making me cringe too much.

Number 1 worst shouldve been

Number 1 worst shouldve been Sonic Heroes. wow, it was just bad

This just angers me.

This list kinda makes me mad. I love Sonic R. I dont understand why nobody likes it, ive always loved it.

If I have any Mario Kart games in my house, their toast! >:D lol jk

Oh, and I also think Sonic the Fighters is good to, not as good as Sonic R, but good.
