It's not simping. It's crushing.

Great Video! But not gonna lie, Martin Adams' take on Sonic is by far the WORST incarnation of the Blue Blur I've heard! From AoStH to the IDW Sonic series, The writers always had a least had the sense make Sonic a kind, selfless, all-loving good guy, even the delusional fool Ken Penders understood this (well, at least when he wasn't including Geoffrey St. John in his half-baked stories). But Martin Adams' Sonic just come across as arsehole who act like a discount version of Horrid Henry or Dennis the Menace. This particular Sonic is lazy, selfish, obtuse, toxic bully who berates and insult others, including his friends who only the "hero" because Dr Robotnik is the worse of the two evils. TBH, I'm so glad I never read these books as a kid as it would've tainted my enjoyment of the Sonic Franchise.

No mention of the Director's Cut version?

You should watch the fan made continuation of tamers12345

I agree watch the og dub but with eng sub of the first episode its actually good

I watched subs in less say in a pirate way, And I enjoyed it a lot more then I watched dub as a kid, It's my preferred Sonic VA's now

I know it's all up to personal opinion, but I can't understand why you have such a serious bone to pick with AOSTH. I couldn't make it halfway through the video before I got tired of hearing "AOSTH bad, SATAM good, ugly cartoon." That being said, your editing style is great, and I know it's just an opinion. If I sound like I'm attacking you or anything, I sincerely apologize.

Of you think about it: sonic OVA was basically a sonic CD movie in the sCD cutscene style animation, so in a way it shows us what those cutscenes would be like as an entire movie

Call me crazy, but I would love to see the english dubbed version of "Sonic X" with the surviving 4Kids cast members returns voicing their roles once more, only done right and faithful to the Japanese version and be shown uncut and uncensored.

I’m sorry but I kinda like the JetX opening because of the beginning of it 😅

This game gave me alot of nightmares as a kid. In level two, i specifically remember being terrified about hanging on a chain above lava.

May not be the greatest Sonic game but it is at least better than Sonic 3 and knuckles.

I like how much of a bro Shadow is in this. Black Doom could've become an even bigger problem than the Time Eater, but rather than bothering Sonic and Tails about it, Shadow dealt with it on his own, allowing the duo to focus on their mission and even letting Sonic take the W in their Rival Battle. None of us (except Rouge) knew, and Shadow doesn't care. Shadow is like this covert hero who saves the world without the credit or praise that Sonic typically gets, just content that he did the right thing, and I love that.

I thought this was a nice and fun short film, even tho I felt embarrassed to be a Sonic fan among my peers at the time, heh. Btw, I just found this channel. Nice to meet a fellow millennial fan. Looking forward to your Unleashed video.

Ok, as a Filipino who saw the 4Kids version, I now wanna see the entirety of the Japanese version. I have I can get my hands on the Discotek Blu-ray.

I was a Nintendo kid growing up so this show was actually my introduction to Sonic and I LOVED it. When I eventually did play some of the Sonic video games years later I was confused as to why they were so different from Underground.

I wish there was an uncensored English dub because i love and miss the old voice actors. But the English dub is full of censorship. It's either Old voice actors and censorship or new voice actors and no censorship

As someone from Brazil, im glad we got the UK of th open creddits, and the version dubbed on portuguese dont have that many censorships, even in the darker or sadder scenes.

I grew up hating this show just because of the shitty English dub, who walked into the office angry

Rhythm of your fingertips!!

This is so cool, i hope i can go there one day.

I grew up with the 4kids version I understand why its bad but without it we would've have gotten the voice actors and that kick ass opening

I didn't realize it was a movie. I thought it was just four episodes.

Wow, the memories of beating this game nearly ten years ago.. How did you get those zoomed-out view of the stages btw ? They look very cool and detailed.

I'm like the opposite of you. I loved AOSTH robotniks design. I actually wasn't a big fan of the anime and was pretty disappointed when I saw sonic on tv but it wasn't AOSTH. I never ventured outside of the lore and the few games I had, but as much as I feel bad for the classic eggman fans, it's really funny and tickles my inner chaos goblin to know and see how absolutely infectious the robotniks design was across the franchise. It's a strange tip of the hat to the few of us sonic fans that adored the way AOSTH depicted the various characters 😅

I imagine that the "Emeralds" we pick up in this games are fragnents of the Blue Emerald Dr. Robotnik broke after an experiment went wrong or something. Either that, or this is a different planet with different rules for such things.

This was a triumph. I’m making a note here: “Huge Success”.

Im ok with the dub I dont like reading And i think i prefer having more music

This robotnik design does appear in Sonic Spinball The GG version, which it's the cover art you showcase here

Yes Hilltop! Good to see your back mate, hope your not working too hard lol. Can't wait to play this, I picked it up on its release, but the day after I wrote my car off so, i haven't got around to it yet, but hopefully tonight is the night! Also, yeah, the animation was just insane. Definitely hit me in the feels, and felt like Sega was finally taking it seriously, as the sonic universe has always worked with dark storytelling, ever since SatAM days. I'd love to see a full fleshed out series like that, that had real time for the narrative to breathe. Great video man as always!

Have you covered the craziness of the archie comics sonic?

Just 100% Shadow Generations and I want more,I know we're getting Movie DLC, but why just that? Give me a whole pack of stages from spinoffs like the Storybook games or even Riders. Heck, give me a DLC pack for the Sonic portion as I don't want everyone to just ignore it as it's also an outstanding game.

You should react to Jhett's "Black Doom Loves Radical Highway" - Shadow Generations in a nutshell, meme video.

One of my complaints is the fact that the map doesn’t show collectibles. I have 2 mechanical bolt parts to find and 6 chests and I can’t find them for the life of me. I’ve searched that hub world up and down and all around and I just can’t find the bloody things.

Well you got one thing right...the og Gens remaster is actually terrible. And not because of the script changes...tho that's a major part of it. Tons of texture and level pop in. Physics glitches that weren't in the original. Now none of this is gonna keep you from beating the game. But when none of this was in the original...well, there's a big problem

Do you know Jesus Christ can set you free from sins and save you from hell today Jesus Christ is the only hope in this world no other gods will lead you to heaven There is no security or hope with out Jesus Christ in this world come and repent of all sins today Today is the day of salvation come to the loving savior Today repent and do not go to hell Come to Jesus Christ today Jesus Christ is only way to heaven Repent and follow him today seek his heart Jesus Christ can fill the emptiness he can fill the void Heaven and hell is real cone to the loving savior today Today is the day of salvation tomorrow might be to late come to the loving savior today Romans 6.23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. John 3:16-21 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. Mark 1.15 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Hebrews 11:6 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Jesus

The radical highway jokes were golden 🤣🤣

This is really the era of sonic now...after the 90s this is big chance theyr getting...the movies kickstarted this...now the games n all...they shouldnt squander of this chance at all...hire the best game developers and grab the chance to produce banger games after banger in a world where games have been infiltrated and are being ruined by stupid politics and low effort attempts...they can do it and enter the world stage!

After playing through Shadow Generations, Modern Sonic does not feel nearly as tightly responsive as Shadow. I think the most annoying thing still in Sonic Generations that may be due to whatever iteration of the Hedgehog Engine is the inability to effectively turn Sonic around as well as how the game deems something as targetable or not. Sonic feels like a speedy tank. I think this may be due to there being no code for Sonic to face a specific direction quickly or immediately especially in the opposite direction. Also, the drop dash is something that I think only works for the 2D games. The drop dash has screwed me over with Modern Sonic more than once. I really hope they patch in an option to disable it. Those were my only gripes with the game. I must say that the entirety of Shadow Generations is addicting. The abilities, responsiveness, story, voice acting, cutscenes, visuals, and gameplay are all so good. I feel like Shadow Generations was the focal point of development with Sonic Generations being bundled to justify its price. They knew how hated and bad the Time Eater boss fight is yet it is exactly the same as it was in 2011. Of all things, that was the one thing that I thought would be changed. I forgot how boring and frustrating it was. It feels like some sadist designed it to be as long and tedious as possible.

The only problem I have with Shadow Generations is wishing it was just a little bit longer. Like one extra zone from his own game since there technically isn't any as is (ARK could count if you stretch it - but it's clearly modeled off the SA2 ARK levels), another extra boss fight or two with Sonic and/or Infinite, have the GUN Commander as an NPC. I think wanting more is a good problem to have though.

Doom Morph (the squid) is actually pretty fun when you learn the ropes. The real fault is that the game doesn't really explain in detail how to use it, but once you figure it out, it's a nice addition to the overall package.

Based video

So happy for the review

Useful tip in the Sonic Generations side. If you don't like the drop dash you can remove it as it's part of Sonic's default skill set. Just go to the skill shop and unequip it. It costs 30 points so in my opinion it's worth taking off for something much more worthwhile!

This addition hit an itch I didn’t know I had 😂, now I don’t advocate that Sega makes Sonic dlc levels but I would definitely buy a pack

When Generations Original came out in 2011, it was also my 20th Anniversary with Sonic at all. Back than, the game gave me many nostalgia moments. But also I had some "That´s it?" - moments. I don´t mean, the game was short. More like, there was still something missing. Now with the Shadow-Part, Generations seams to be complete. I other words: Generations 2024 is the game we should have get in 2011. But I guess the performances and techniques were not advanced enough back than and I think SEGA / Sonic Team knew it. The big critic, besides that Shadow Generations could be a little longer is, that Geralds Journal, is a paper book only. I was expecting a case sizeed hard cover book. Similar to the steel case of Sonic Frontiers, or the IDW Collection books. I know, it sounds more like an old fanbboy blah blah, than a serious critic, right?

I did not expect a Twin Peaks reference in this review!

Love your vids man. All Hail Shadow! ❤🖤

Sonigens remaster is better in it improves the way it plays & fixes some bugs & makes it look better. But worse in that it makes dialogue changes & adds censorship that wasn't in the og. It's unethical & sega/st as well as any company who changes a game in a remaster should face legal consequences for it. As for shadgens the "story" was horrendous as a shadow fan & had so much missed potential. But the biggest sin is that they didn't put an 05 level in the game at all. Instead it's 2 whole ass sa2 levels & a frontiers island for a game shadow wasn't even in. I want to talk to whoever's BRIGHT idea that was. The game itself is good tho

HE'S BACK!! And what a great time to come back. Also, the game is a much better remaster than what ever they did with Colors 😅
