Sonic Mania (2D, PS4, XB1,PC, Switch, August 15th 2017, 29th for PC)

They did it brehs. Although my 8 year old self is ashamed right now. Not finishing levels with 100+ rings and losing on these bonus stages. So far it has been the same ones from Sonic 3 + Knuckles.

nikka used to have all the emeralds in the first world... nah. Man how the hell did I keep up with this shyt has a youngin!?

The younger we are the faster our minds work. The older we get the slower it gets.

Apparently, all versions are almost exactly the same. 1080p/60fps on all consoles but 720p/60fps undocked Switch and 4k/60fps PS4 Pro. The Switch version has slight slowdown in the 3D special stages and has a few issues with the Switch OS for some reason. Apparently, the screenshot, power and home buttons can be unresponsive for some reason. That doesn't effect gameplay obviously and the developer already said they're working on a patch to fix it

Also there's frame drops in the 3D bonus stages on the switch.

Sonic CD is amazing! To all of you who have played Sonic Mania so far which is better?

I've played Sonic CD before but never gave it much thought before.

I really need to stop playing this damn blue sphere bonus levels

So far I've collected 18 of those coins/medallions and I'm only on the 4th zone lol

I've only came across one giant ring though

They have some from s3 & K. Some no different than the originals and some remixed

Anybody know what those coins you get from beating the Blue Sphere stages actually do?

Is it really as good as the reviews say it is.

Is it better or worse than Raymond Legends?

DO NOT READ SPOILERS IF YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED THIS GAME. You owe it to yourself to not cheat yourself out of the experience of seeing some of these things for the first time as you're playing.

Spoiler

When I saw the Death Egg Robot was the Green Hill Zone boss
Like they're gonna throw that shyt at us right away?
When I saw the Mean Bean Machine
I suck at Puyo Puyo but I did get him on the first try

For anyone who calls this a glorified rom hack

Rayman Legends is cool but platforming in 2D Sonic games is different than the rest so it's hard to say which is better or worse

Im only 2 stages in so hard to say. I'll say I prefer this for single player and Rayman Legends for multiplayer.
Rayman Legends is the best multiplayer platformer ever and I think it plays best with at least 2 players

this game is HARD but the level design is very clever and fun. i love that you can add scan lines.
