I honestly can listen some of them outside game. PC port is solid, graphics are awesome and controls are actually pretty comfortable for keyboard.
In fact, maybe it's for PC, or it's just me, but i found controls for Joypad a bit laggy and i prefer keyboard. So, basically, i really want to rate this game higher, because, well, it's a real come back from a hero of my childhood, that everybody considered pretty much dead. Can't wait for the next installment not counting Sonic the Hedgehog 4. This game was really well done. I thoroughly enjoyed playing it. The story doesn't really make any sense, but who cares, were here for the This game was really well done.
The story doesn't really make any sense, but who cares, were here for the gameplay, right? And the game plays really well. The recreating of the stages for both classic and modern Sonic was done beautify. The only major let down is the face that because modern Sonic and Classic Sonic play so differently and yet the stages look so similar it's easy to forget which one you're playing as which can lead to disaster.
It's also a shame that Sega didn't choose to recreate more classic stages for this game. Given that they had 20 years worth of material to work with the small handful of stages we were given seems almost ludicrous. And I still can't wrap my head around the fact that they included Crisis City from Sonic Still I thoroughly enjoyed this game and I'm sure anyone who likes Sonic games will too.

August 19, I think it's fair to say that they were amazingly better than the quality Sonic Team had been known for at that time. August 18, I mean even so you probably wont see many people arguing that Mania isnt better which is why I assume the hyperoblic statements of its quality are said.
Colors and Generations are seen as go. To be fair, while the "Sonic's been so bad lately" rhetoric opening every review has gotten old That's not sayin. Plus, people go for the low hanging fruits and claim Sonic is shit, whilst completely leaving his good games in the dust so they can prove their point.
But anyways, yes and no. You saw the same thing happen with Generations even with Colors having come out the year before. Even then, from what I've read here, many people don't consider them good games simply due to them not matching their taste or general opinion of what a Sonic game "should" be.
While these games did well both critically and financially, you can't change someone's base opinion of them. Due to this, whenever you do get a video or post on here dismissing them and saying something like "for the last 20 years, Sonic hasn't been good" or something along those lines you know it's basically someone who chooses not to acknowledge them as good games which is fine, don't kill me plz :V when the general public consensus says otherwise.
Can't expect someone who isn't as engraved in this franchise like us to know about everyone one of the dozens of games out there. Hell, these days you're lucky if they even believe Sonic was ever "good". That's not saying the others are bad. It's just saying Mania is better than them. Colors and Generations are seen as good games, but Mania is seen as exceptional, I think that's the key diffrence here.
I still never got this. Really as long as I've been on the internet the general opinion for folks who don't like Sonic these days usually say that "He peaked during the Genesis days. Colours kinda blows. I was iffy about that game as soon as finishing my first playthrough, and going back hasn't helped that.
I still think Generations is a very good game though; but if others don't, then whatever. I'm sure they have their reasons. Part of it is that people choose to dwell on the negatives and in order to fit with the crowd, people actually start bashing Sonic believing that it is such a cool thing to do.
Even when Sonic the Hedgehog actually has plenty of good games, the constant bashing has been so bad that even many of my friends chooses to believe it and are not willing to give Sonic the light of day. That, and the fact that it's significantly easier to focus on the negatives makes people turn a blind eye to Colors and Generations when it comes to looking at the Sonic franchise as whole, but plenty of reviewers would admit that those two games are actually pretty damn good.
As for Sonic Mania being regarded as the best Sonic game in two decades? Part of it is that it's what people want to hear. They know they're hyped and they would thereby gain more publicity if they reconciled with people's views.
Another large part of it is that most of the reviewers grew up with Sonic and likely have a bias for Classic Sonic games to begin with and Mania having expanded on previous Classic Sonic games would make Mania a prime candidate for the best Sonic game in two decades because no Sonic game has ever come close to replicating that experience other than the Adventure games which still has its problems believe it or not. That is also true, but it certainly helps that these reviewers grew up with the Classic Sonic games and therefore have a bias for them.
That was my main point. I think what the OP is trying to get to is that somewhere down the road there will be a better game than Mania and then everyone is gonna say that "Sonic Mania wasn't a good game". Is that correct? Its human nature to have bad memories resonate longer and more significantly than good ones. There is a reason why a puppy or a kid never touches a stovetop twice. For all the Unleashed, Colors, and Generations in the past years, there have been 06's, Free Riders and RoL right beside them to taint perception.
Any momentum the series gains is almost immediately given right back, so we get stuck in this negative perception rut. We've been down this road before. Even back during 06 era, Sonic Rush had came out just a year before to critical acclaim. Popular culture widely considered that game good, if not great. But none of that mattered in the aftermath of All of the sudden, no Sonic game moving forward was given the benefit of the doubt.
Its not so much that Gens and Colors are looked down on as bad now, just that the memories of bad entries in the series will take some more time, and some more positive entries before this narrative can be buried.
We gotta get more consistently good games. Even stuff like ASR-Transformed helps push the envelope in the right direction. Or maybe they just thought those games were better? Because that's kinda the majority opinion, beyond just "reviewers"? OP was not referring to the majority's opinion. He just claimed that there's always reviews that adhere to a certain behavior.
Part of those reviews are from reviewers who have a bias for these games. There's nothing wrong with that, but it certainly helps explain why people who view Mania so highly chooses to dismiss many of the future iterations of Sonic when looking at is as a whole. From here, it looks like — and this may surprise some of you — that the secret to the press not shitting on Sonic, is for Sonic to be in good games.
New games all look and feel the same. Here was a character who had more attitude than Mario in every way. Mario was my homeboy especially Tanooki Mario , but Sonic was the rad new kid on the block. I woke up extra early to watch the Sonic cartoon on Saturday mornings and even owned his comics. Or maybe it was the fact that Sonic was blue running through a level that was also mostly blue with blue water and blue sky.
Did anyone at Sonic Team the developers behind the original Sonic games even look into something called contrast? Whatever the reasons were, they made it impossible for me to stick with Sonic games. Even more so than a movie, pacing, especially on a bit console, is important. For me, Sonic was too quick, making a mess of all the pixels on the screen and turning everything into a blocky migraine-inducing experience every time I dared play his games.
It was literally impossible to zoom through a level at sonic speed and not run into enemies a zillion times. What are you supposed to do? Slow down? That kind of defeats the whole point of Sonic. Despite superior graphics with more polygons remember when polygon count would get everyone hard? Blame it on the hardware. Maybe Sega was trying to do too much with the limited processing power that wasn't ready for what they envisioned for Sonic. But that doesn't explain what happened after consoles got way more powerful.
