[@OnekiKai]

I remember finding out that the sound effects for R were loose wave files. I replaced "go" with a fart sound..."Ready, set, braaap"

[@EpicEmberOriginal]

But what about the actual music files? Could you replace the R music with, say, Sonic Adventure music? Or music from any Sonic game thereafter really since many of them had lyrics

[@killa948]

You gotta make a video of this.

[@ccricers]

That's how also the sound effects were set up for Warcraft 2. I made the characters sound like Simpsons characters. Knights were Milhouse

[@PlusInsta]

Ah, the joyful days before developers started stuffing important game data into encrypted containers.

[@bluedragon9925]

@@EpicEmberOriginal On that topic, I remember discovering that the music in Sonic Adventure 1's original PC port was just WMA files. I made a bunch of music swaps as a result. Some of them were fitting like replacing Emerald Coast's theme with Palmtree Panic's theme from the JP/PAL version of Sonic CD, others not so much like replacing Gamma's theme with Iron Man by Black Sabbath... (Get it, 'cause he's made of metal?... I was a dumb teenager...)

[@Timothan]

The fact that an official "Sonic and Garfield" pack exists completes my life. Thank you.

[@alexsilva28]

Imagine how many other packs are out there that we don't know about. Pacman and Snoopy?

[@ghostofthepast9234]

Where's the looney tunes and mega man pack?

[@Autistic_Pixel]

it also goes for 300$ disc only, 500-700$ in the box. Clint is quite literally sitting in a gold mine. Crazy that 10 years ago you could find bigbox pc games for 1$.

[@gammaboost]

When you realise that the standalone Sonic R box had a Y2K compliant badge on it. Ah yes, a racing game that needs to count it's own time. I guess it makes sense for time trial date codes, but really...

[@Pinkanator]

I'm sure you've probably mentioned this on twitter or the like but, in current-year retrospect, Sonic and Knuckles Collection is even MORE fascinating with the context that some of the pc-ified soundtrack is taken from early prototype builds of the original game, before all the guest-musician shenanigins took place.

[@SonicParadox]

Some interesting facts: -Some copies of Sonic R PC didn't have music on the disc to manufacturing forgetting to add it. -Sonic & Knuckles Collection can be modded to add the original Genesis music. -Ecco the Dolphin has a mod that fixes all the bugs and adds the Sega CD music.

[@TheWax70]

[@hexon8013]

[@yellows111]

There's this interview with one of the developers responsible for the port of Sonic CD, and on how his team managed to port the game to Windows before Windows gaming was mainstream and DirectX was a thing. It's a really fascinating read: www.sonic-cult.org/dispart.php?catid=1&gameid=5&subid=2&artid=2 (Initial releases of Sonic CD for the PC didn't use DirectX, though the more common later releases do)

[@ThomasJeff1898]

Edit (30/3/2020): The link to that interview works now for reasons I do not know. That is all. I'm sorry to say this, but the Sonic Cult site is down for good as when I clicked on that link, it shows Sonic in a shocked state while the tab says "IT"S OVER". You might have to place another source for that interview.

[@chrisfratz]

my favorite PC port of an old-school Sonic game was the Christian Whitehead version of Sonic CD made in the Retro engine, which I kind of wish you mentioned when you talked about Sonic CD for the PC.

[@EpicEmberOriginal]

ChrisTheFox Yep, the best 2D Sonic game before Mania made playable on the PC in HD and wide-screen. Perfection.

[@duffman18]

Plus it includes the far superior Japanese soundtrack

[@seacliff217]

ChrisTheFox Yeah, the improved presentation, physics, and other cool stuff like the ability to play as tails kind of makes the original PC port obsolete.

[@ItsAGorillaStudios]

Fun fact about the Panzer Dragoon port: the PC version's source code is the only surviving version. When the third entry in the series, Orta, was released, it had an emulated PC version built in as a bonus.

[@atomicskull6405]

It wasn't emulated. The original Xbox was based largely on PC hardware and used a stripped down Win32 kernal and DirectX 8 so they just set up an environment that provided for all the OS calls the PC version used.

the recent Sonic CD "remake" on Steam is particularly excellent ... incidentally made by some of the same folks involved in Sonic Mania and they stated its codebase started with the Win95 version of Sonic CD [or did it? Retro Engine] considering how they reverse-engineered the engine to use it in Mania, I'm wondering if they started with CD then

[@CitroenC407]

I remember owning quite a few of the Sega PC games back in the day. Sega Rally 1 and 2. Sonic Collection, CD, 3D Flickies Island (awesome version of this on PC) and R. The House of the Dead. Enemy Zero. Daytona USA Deluxe. Panzer Dragoon. Good times. Sega really were still at their best during this era. I always wanted to get Bug and Ecco on PC but could never ever find a copy for sale in my local stores. I've since purchased both on Sega Saturn and Mega CD respectively.

[@MysteryGameGeEk3000]

What a trip down memory lane. I totally forgot that I had The House of the Dead for PC back in the day. I didn't know they Virtua Cop, though. I hope to see a Capcom PC Games Retrospective from you some day. I see you have all the classic REs for the PC... I'm so jealous.

Still have my first Sega PC purchase. I got one of those Sonic & Knuckles Collection discs back when Jack In The Box was running a promo on cheap Sega PC games.

This has probably already been mentioned a hundred times in the comments, but the Steam Sonic CD isn't actually emulated; it started as a fan port by Taxman (the lead programmer/director for Sonic Mania) that was (in a rare moment of a company not being DMCA-happy) contacted by Sega for an official release.

I don't know if the soundtrack was the same or not, but I actually did once come across a perfect version of Crazy Taxi on PC. It was some shady file-sharing stuff, but it ran really well on my dinky little Gateway Pentium 3 machine, and it had all the branding intact. I think it may have actually been a self-contained arcade emulator with a pre-launch options menu? I dunno for sure, it's been 11 years now. Had a blast with it though.

SEGA is this weird mixture of "Yep, you wouldn't normally expect a company to release a fan port, but here they did, and that was exactly the right move to do" and "here's a list of pretty obvious things you could do to make people happy and keep you afloat by expanding upon your existing successes" and it's not coming?
