Beta64 - Sonic Adventure

[@JaceGem]

Can we just take a moment and appreciate the music in this game though? Arguably one of my favorite soundtracks in a game. And it really had no right to go as hard as it did, but it sure fucking did go harder than most OSTs did at the time.

[@DarknessAmongUs]

yeah if only i could hear the dialogue over it :P

[@sterlingmuse5808]

Quite frankly, most of the games in the Sonic series have soundtracks just as good. There ARE exceptions, but the good ones outnumber the bad.

Crush 40 fo' life. I'm so glad SEGA brought them back from the dead with Team Sonic Racing.

@sk I mean, the Genesis was basically done by 1995. So at best, he would be able to play it when he was 4 in 2000… and by that time the system was 5 years out of vogue.

[@LukeMM95]

I really wish they went back to the Adventure style of 3D Sonic games. The recent games are way too linear and I'm not a fan of the boost mechanic. Sonic's speed should be momentum based and should rely on the player's platforming skills. I'm not asking for Adventure 3, but I do want Sonic's gameplay to return to that style.

[@LukeMM95]

PingasMaster2041 From the gameplay I've seen of Sonic Boom, it doesn't look like what I'm looking for. It's a mix of slow combat sections and linear running stages. The speed sections especially just don't impress. The characters just run in a straight path and occasionally move left or right to avoid obstacle.

[@Reayashin]

PingasMaster2041 Sonic Boom gameplay looks like a disgrace, also a Looney Toons reject when it comes to the theme (tries too hard to be "Funny", Sonic aren't Spiderman.

Unless its for character design purposes....

[@hideofreakingkojima5457]

In fact many fans wanted Sonic to have a gun, Yugi Naka understandably denies the stupid idea as it doesn't fit with Sonic's character.

[@Sonicjan]

Because of the fans asking for Guns in Sonic-games, we got Gamma, Tails and Eggman mecha-gameplay (Adventure 2) and Shadow the Hedgehog (game). However, I personally like it and it really fits Shadow, so I don't really understand the hate for that... I also like those multiple Story-pathways, were you can see alternate results. And like the first Sonic-games, only the good ending is canon (Sonic got all Chaos Emeralds and defeated Eggman, Shadow got all Chaos Emeralds, choose the right path and knew he wasn't an Android, so he destroyed Devil Doom).

Being a somewhat former Sonic fan myself, honestly the Beta elements look better than the released version. Not visually, but from a gameplay standpoint. The only characters I enjoyed in Sonic Adventure were honestly, Sonic, Knuckles and Amy. Yes I didn't care if Amy was slow, she only had 3 levels, two of them are very short.. Tails was just Sonic's levels, but shorter and you just raced Sonic, you basically were already doing the exact same story as Sonic, but with Tails. The only thing he gets out of it is character development. Gamma's got repetitive and Big's was just boring.

I wonder how Knuckles’ infamous “Oh No!” sounded with his old voice.

[@KaiSC]

they used the same voice clip for the final version

[@theflamealpha3053]

What about the fact that Sonic and Tails use simpler models during Sky Chase Acts 1 and 2 in the Dreamcast port, possibly the very same models used in Sonic R?

[@TheKeitaNobodyAskedFor]

That is a reference,not a beta thing

[@scoundrel8440]

"Dreamcast port" Hey fun fact, the Dreamcast version was the original version.

[@scoundrel8440]

@@TheKeitaNobodyAskedFor Now I'm not a technical expert or anything, but I don't think this is a reference and rather a quick and dandy way to save up on system resources. I mean, you were only supposed to see them from the back of the Tornado and yes, I know that cutscenes for those stages still use those models but come on, it's the Dreamcast, how many polygons on screen do you think it can load?

[@daamazinfatb0y752]

The nostalgia is off the charts!!! I want a time machine now.

[@Star77Z]

20:55 I remember playing with super sonic in the pc version after finishing the game and I heard that too

[@notyobusiness7054]

wow this makes me sad, i feel like this game just came out, feels like yesterday, i remember waiting at gamecrazy/hollywood video tryna get this game haha

[@notyobusiness7054]

22 lol how come?

[@niespeludo]

You would have been 4 by 1998...

[@notyobusiness7054]

i was 5 when it came out and i actually do remember waiting for it :P i cried cause by the time we got there, they was sold out haha

[@RosalinaSama]

is the second chao icon meant to be a flag? maybe it is for the chao race in some way

[@toadinus]

That was only included in the DX version on the GameCube

[@sterlingmuse5808]

Nintentoad That doesn't mean they didn't originally intend to put it into the Dreamcast version but had to cut it out because it wasn't finished or something.

[@SuLLyZorZ]

I really enjoy this early game stuff and the theorys behind it, you sir are definitely the Master Beta.

[@Natboy129]

7:00 looks like an unfinished version of her final boss fight area thing...

[@HASH-GAMES21]

i hate that he used the dx version as the final version whereas the dreamcast version is the original game

[@numburger]

On the topic of the "Now you can play with SONIC!" text, I find it more likely that Knuckles would've been the first character you play as since Sonic Adventure's story technically starts in Knuckles' story

[@SuperGamer61499]

You know I like most of the Sonic Games they at least try something new Sonic Fans are like"SONIC WITH A SWORD RUINED FOREVER" or "SONIC IS A SPEED GAME NOT A PLATFORMER" and the most popular "SONIC HAS GREEN EYES?" it makes me think why this never happens with Mario,Zelda, etc

[@SuperGamer61499]

I'm 15 and I am sorry but I was doing a Sonic FanTard impersionation but still bullshit

[@Rexeljet]

I wouldn't say it's just the (Sega Forum-going) fans, but I find that a lot of web critics or people who are otherwise out of the loop with the Sonic series are the ones who seem to dislike any Sonic game that tries to deviate from the classic formula, believing that Sonic Team should not learn from poorly executed concepts but simply disacknowledge (which is totally a word) the fact that they even came up with the idea in the first place. A good example is Shadow the Hedgehog- one of the reasons why that game fell flat on its face was because its attempt at a "dark" storyline and atmosphere was laughable, with not-quite-swear-words added into the script seemingly at the last minute and Shadow's contrived backstory involving aliens. There are a lot of people, however, who believe that Sonic games should not have dark storylines full stop, citing Shadow's game as a reason. Similarly, you get a lot of web critics who moan about the existence of an extended cast of characters (up to and sometimes including Tails and Knuckles), even in games where they don't do anything (e.g. Generations), ignoring the fact that they could be used for great things and not be forever associated with bad games. The notion of Sonic games in 3D is another pathetic complaint that pops up. IGN has an article called "Where did Sonic go wrong", which reads as if it escaped from a cringe thread. And as for games that are condemned for being different, look no further than Sonic Labyrinth. It's an average game at worst but there are people (most of which aren't fans, to my knowledge) who slam the game because "Sonic is about going fast, and in this game you go slow!", not bothering to analyse the game on its own merits. Dr. Mario is a Mario game that doesn't involve any sort of platforming. Should I therefore dismiss it as a terrible game?

[@kfcnyancat]

I don't know why it doesn't happen with Zelda, but I do know that Nintendo RARELY tries something new with Mario.

[@TD0150]

kfcnyancat Well it has happened before (Like Wind Waker's cartoony design for example), but most of those games aged well.

[@TD0150]

kfcnyancat Wait, what? I was talking about Zelda. Where'd you get the idea that I said anything bad about SA? I think you replied to the wrong guy. Even still, there's no need for such bias. Sonic Adventure 1 & 2 were my childhood, but so was Mario Sunshine/Galaxy etc. Why can't we just love all games?

[@DjFrexira]

I don't know why Sega can't just listen to their fans and make a Sonic Adventure 3.

[@DjFrexira]

***** True... Sega fucks up everything.

[@ikagura]

+Jesus Fucking Christ Sadly, Sonic '06 IS adventure 3 without the name...

[@ostrichesandgin8570]

if they do i hope they ditch the multiple player thing and just stick to sonic

[@onmas909]

+IKAGURA96 not really. game play is different and it is actually a reboot instead of a sequel. sonic heroes follows the story from adventure 2 a bit more better.

[@ziadusama755]

Cancer Of KZbin. because it has been a game so many fans wanted so it can never live up to the expectations

[@kathyholt7523]

I didn't know this channel was still alive good for you🤗

[@PikaLink91]

Why is it that the Beta of a game, more often than not, seems much more interesting than the final product? Also, I find it very lackluster that Sonic Team apparently planned for Super Sonic to be playable in regular stages but decided to cut that feature. Breezing through the game (after completion) as Super Sonic, raping everything in your path, is what makes it so fullfilling to collect all the Chaos Emeralds. And then I don't care if the stages aren't built for Super Sonic, I would have wanted him playable anyway, Bad excuse is bad, Sonic Team.

[@KyanbuXM]

Thing is, SS would play just fine in these stages too. Regardless of rather or not he'd break the game. The only other excuse I can think of is that SA's hit detection can be glitchy at times. So maybe during test play, SS kept clipping through objects when at high speed. And with little time left to debug him let alone the rest of the game. They simply just left him out. The fact that there's even a voice clip helps show that this might have been a very late possibly last minute cut.

[@Treyworld]

Plus it could have been added within any of the re-releases of Sonic Adventure for crying out loud!

[@PikaLink91]

***** No, I would not, because the Beta often just DOES look more polished. Like the water effects in Kingdom Valley in 06 which were removed in the final game. Trust me, if we had gotten the beta, and when then exposed to the current final game afterwards, I would look at it and think.... ain't something missing here??

[@WaterKirby1994]

The reason for why Beta's are more interesting is because of how generally corporations don't provide information on them, it's that mysterious coverup aspect that makes them interesting.

[@markasscop]

***** are you kidding me? isn't this common sense that beta's seem more interesting b/c we're so used to what we saw in the final game

[@superfuntimeanimalsedition961]

you really should have stuck to the dreamcast version.

[@michaelkindt3288]

@17:53-.-I think the second one is supposed to be The tail of a musical note. So it probably would have been used to Express the same kinds of emotions musical notes normally do in Japanese culture.

[@TheIbney00]

Odd I ever make a game, I'm going to make the earlier versions of the game available to the owners of it. I've always wished that debs would do this. I know it's a lot of work, but I always feel as if we're losing a part of gaming history.

[@3333218]

That's fair to ask but, I feel that most of the time developers don't want people looking into unfinished and unpolished stuff. Plus, that would require extra work most of the time. Cancelled or unfinished stuff is, well, unfinished or undone.

[@TheIbney00]

I am an obsesive note taker and keep everything in order all the time. Not to mention I can sti at a computer screen and do stuff all day as long as I have you tube by my side. If your wondering, all the games I want to make would be free as they are easy to make, and wouldn't be worth much if they wwere rices as they would be simple. But hey, who knows, I could be the next Gabe. So for commenting, heres my signature for if im famous some day. -ibney

[@heroessquad2019]

The way that Knuckles saying "Oh No" in the fight is his beta version...

[@HEX_VENTURE]

you should have played the dreamcast version. it would have made it way easier to compare.

+I ARE TECH's #1 Fan Why are you taking it so seriously? It was a joke!

[@schizophist2963]

it makes sense to say that it later became the main concept for sonic lost world

[@MrNayru]

It was a reference to the blocky art style, of course it has nothing to do with minecraft

[@KingdomHeartsFan-mu9cf]

I bet all those NPCs were removed to both save on resources and prevent glitchy interactions. You’d know what I mean if you saw Son of a Glitch Sonic 06 with the girl walking into the fountain and sitting on the air.

Can you do a Sonic Adventure 2 episode next plz?

Does pokemon x and y have any beta elements?

[@KawaiiPotatoDA]

Yes. the floating sunglasses seen in the first trailer. jk that was a glitch. A real beta element was Gardevoir using Fairy Wind in the trailer. In the final game, it can't learn Fairy Wind whatsoever.

[@KawaiiPotatoDA]

***** What a waste of potential. I looked at your videos and I think you're doing a good job on your animations. Keep doing them and you'll make even better animations. Also, if you can, don't make them silent. Put sounds on it but not exaggerate them nor use only generic Minecraft sounds. Mix it up a little.
