You could argue it lacks distinct segmented stages, but that just means it is one giant multi hour stage, and with stats like that it beats out even eggmanland as the clear number 1

@@Ivan210bluboi As J seems to like being able to skip things in stages with cool tech, the whole first half of Boom is obviously a perfect score as you completely skip it. The later stages are a bit slower. I personally rank the sky ruins area high because I liked drawing sky ruins as a kid.

The polish, the graphics, the levels, the werehog stages (+ all those cool combos), the scenery, the cohesiveness, the npcs, the final level, the final boss, and the music? 🔥. They really aced it w that one. Plus Jason griffith does a phenomenal job with the voice acting (I lowkey miss him)

Terminal Velocity was actually one of my favorite stages, just because the control is taken away from you doesn't mean your not still still dodging obstacles etc imo.

So ive watched this video 3 times now. 1.For Entertainment 2.Collect some Data 3.Check Data The Way Games Were Ranked off the List was by their highest ranking level so i wanted to see what the average scores per game were with the rankings most didn't change but i thought it was some nice info to see the Quality difference per game by how you ranked them. I took the Placements for each game and divided by the amount of levels ( i did not count extra missions just like the video but i did double up on the Heroes number for combined Levels, like Rail Canyon counted as 108 and Bullet Station as 108). Here is the List Game - Score - Placement Change 1. Sonic Unleashed- 16.77 (No Change) 2.Sonic Generations- 20 (No Change) 3.Sonic Adventure 2- 41.83 (No Change) 4.Sonic Unleashed Wii- 49 (+3) 5.Sonic Heroes- 54.5 (No Change) (Heroes gets a 49.6 with only counting the combined levels once) 6.Sonic Colors- 55 (No Change) 7.Sonic Adventure- 57.36 (-3) 8.Sonic Frontiers- 90.63 (No Change) 9.Sonic & The Secret Rings- 94.43 (+2) 10.Shadow The Hedgehog- 98.56 ( -1) 11.Sonic & The Black Knight- 105.81 (-1) 12.Sonic Lost World- 112.14 (+1) 13.Sonic The Hedgehog 2006- 120.6 (-1) 14.Sonic Forces- 128.8 (No Change) 15.Sonic Lost World 3DS- 156.83 (No Change)

Maybe it’s just my age but as much as I love Unleashed and Generations, their stages don’t come close to the enjoyment I get from SA1 and especially SA2. But thats just me. I’d certainly put all four of them in my top 4 too, just not in that order. Great video! Very much enjoyed watching. Would love to see your ranking on the 2D Sonic stages.

I completed it and honestly you're not missing on much. Silent Forest gave me cancer and the ending is very underwhelming, lava mountain is nothing but a boss rush which retakes the previous bossfights and makes them marginally harder, or in the blue guy's fight's case, more obnoxious than anything. There's no difficult rail level, no difficult platformer level, no just a series of easy bossfights, it's not doing justice to the 3ds honestly.

I'm happy Sonic Colors' zones got placed so high. I feel like how the Sonic community (and gaming journalists) turned their backs on Sonic Adventure and its surrounding games for a time, the Sonic community has gotten way too harsh on Colors. Colors has now become the new punching bag, seemingly-with certain sects of fans even putting it on a similar level to Forces. The game certainly isn't perfect, but I definitely think it's still a pretty darn good game. I know you've gone on record saying how you feel bad that your past video on it led to people lambasting it, so I'm happy to hear positivity on it from you! The game has an incredible art direction, as you said, and the game probably has one of my favorite Sonic soundtracks.

I just felt betrayed by colors as a kid, I was told that it’s just the daytime stages of sonic unleashed and it wasn’t. It has too much 2D for my liking.

This is a great and interesting list. I have some disagreements of course but I liked hearing all of your takes. Rooftop Run in Unleashed is honestly one of the greatest platforming levels in history in my honest opinion. It is a showcase for everything that makes Sonic, Sonic. Incredible level design, an overwhelming sense of speed, incredible music, stunning presentation, thrill, diversity, and most of all- FUN. What’s insane about Unleashed is that I personally think Jungle Joyride still manages to top Rooftop run, but from an objective standpoint, I think it makes sense as the greatest level in Sonic history. Truly an outstanding piece of art 47:41 4-4!?!? That stage is SOOOOOOOOOO much fun to speedrun. I am genuinely shocked to see this stage that low. You should really try speedrunning it. I know it’s full of automation in places, but seriously speedrunning it makes it so good with the spin dash

I mean, J said himself that he doesn’t really like Frontiers (which I find cringe, but I digress), so that’s naturally gonna color his perception of the stages. Imo the only bad level in Frontiers is the drifting one, so I’d say he underrated a fair amount of them, but considering his opinion on the game, it’s not that surprising.

I'm surprised that Dream Team wasn't included because I think those levels are on par with Colors best stages and sometimes even better.

Ok Wow! This video was awesome! The intro cards for each game being stylized for the game they represent is such an excellent touch, every game spot felt very inspired, and man I love seeing the story book games here. Even if they don’t rank all that highly, I grew up with the story book games and I’ve been a huge defender of them all these years as “Mainline titles” so it’s just amazing seeing them here. And the same can be said for seeing Rooftop Run place #1, and just seeing all the Unleashed games at the top in general, it’s just so Rad as a life long Unleashed fan. For years people have shit on Unleashed and its levels but now the tide has turned and people now see it for the masterpiece that I always knew it was. Also thank you for including UnWiished, that was the version I grew up with as a kid so it brings me a lot of joy seeing it here as well. Love your videos, hope to see more like this! 9/9

great video! i have some thoughts: honestly i heavily disagree on your 3-3 placement, id argue frontiers makes sky sanctuary act 2 feel way more open and leaves a lot more room for experimentation, it ended up being one of the most standout levels to me, and spindashing will help you outrun the falling platforms at the end just like OG gens i also disagree on how you explained 4-4 and its placement, id argue its one of the most coherent OG cyberspace levels and it houses most of the reaction based platforming in cyberspace, id hope you'd maybe give it another try and maybe try to get the best time, it's regarded as one of the best for a reason also as a lost world wii U fan i dont fuck with 3DS at all, it strips away everything i enjoy about the wii u version times 10 also on a final note, love how the ranking placement pop-ups recreate the level title cards flawlessly, they look great!
