As we await the future of the Blue Hedgehog, especially with the movie coming out and the “once a month announcements” that are happening this year, let’s see if the 2020s will help the franchise return to being a classic in the hearts of many gamers, or if it will continue to just be some barely passable games every year or two.

@@LD1E60 The main hope for Sonic is if Sega were to be absorbed by Nintendo, since that's where all the development staff on the series that knew what they were doing went, while the executives that call the shots for Sonic don't care about releasing a finished product in the slightest.

I'll admit that Sonic was iconic to me growing up. Even though I was born in the early 2000's, my first time playing Sonic was on the Gameboy and I loved it. My dad had this console when he was younger and he let me play it. I had a blast with it, although I never played through the whole game because I was an eight year that wasn't that good at video games. I know that the Sonic franchise has had quite a few bad games, but my experience with it has been pretty good! Then again, my second Sonic game was Sonic Colors on the Wii. I went nuts with that game and even played it with my best friend sometimes. Now that I'm on the internet, I found out that Sonic Colors is one of the better games. So I think I just never played any of the bad games. So yeah, this franchise has a close spot in my heart.

I recently started playing through this one again, 10 years later it still looks beautiful!

Just casually Decided to check my Subscriptions and saw This 2 minutes ago, and well... I clicked faster than I've done this year.

[@rimmer168]

Gotta click fast

[@TMSonicFan47]

I love this game. It was my first ever PC game and most played on Steam to this day.

[@MercilessRalph231]

When will you do some more Mega Man Battle Network Games?

You're a fan of the Battle Network series too?

9:16 "It hasn't been easy to put Sonic in 3D" Don't even start with that shit! The Sonic Adventure games may have flaws like the localization, The lip syncing, but that doesn't mean they are bad games they are great games Adventure 2 is my favorite Sonic game. So don't start with that Sonic had a rough time in 3D bullshit

[@ThisisKyle]

If they were refined then the Adventure games would be amazing, unfortunately the controllers are a bit wonky

[@connorplays6263]

@@ThisisKyle The controls are not wonky, If they were harder to turn like in the modern games then running around in a full 3D environment with snappy and responsive movements wouldn't work, especially Sonic Adventure 1

[@connorplays6263]

@@ThisisKyle honestly if there is another Sonic Adventure styled game, Make supersonic work in regular levels by not just making him an invincible yellow sonic

[@ThisisKyle]

@@connorplays6263 I'm sorry but the controllers are a bit wonky, if they were refined a little then they would be amazing

[@connorplays6263]

@@ThisisKyle are you talking about the actual controllers or how the game controls? Because I've never had any issues with the controls.

[@sensorydetail7438]

The first line of the video, "Sonic is nearly as old as I am" applies to me too! In my adulthood, my interests have spread out from just video games, so I only get to finish maybe one full-length game per year (and leave even more unfinished), and Sonic Generations was one of them. In a way, it succeeds by playing it safe and being about old levels re-introduced in 3D rather than having new mechanics and modes. I haven't bought a Sonic game since (although I hear Mania is good!) but the minute another *good* 3D Sonic game comes out, I'd be up for it.

[@MrBonessss]

Fact that games like this one and Mania, show what Sega can do when they bring their S game tom the table, is fantastic. Hell even the community is still cooking up fan levels for this very game on the PC release. Making me wonder why i fell in love with the little blue dude all over again.

[@Saycheeseburger]

You could give this game any better justice. As much as it is a universally praised game, no other video sums up the game batter than this

[@aceblaz5502]

This is the one game I've actually managed to completel 100% all the way through like the Completionist. And had fun the whole time.

[@jordannino1836]

My first Sonic game and my personal favorite game.

[@dotproduct335]

It's just my favorite Sonic game of all time. Your video is a worthy tribute of this amazing game !!

[@chrisspellman5952]

Best way to watch this, 1.5x speed. Gives that extra level of immersion for a Sonic game.

[@tigerfestivals5137]

This game is the peak of modern Sonic. If only they could replicate this gameplay style with new stages, or perhaps a Sonic Generations 2.

[@ShinobiBoyBlue]

*a tear rolls down my face* I still can't get that last achievement/trophy...

[@waffletoast215]

It's hard to believe this game is almost 10 years old, I still remember getting it when I was in middle school and how happy I was to play it. Going back to play it nowadays, it's still a fun time! Not to mention the soundtrack is fantastic, both for the console and handheld versions. Shoutout to Classic City Escape and the Big Arms remix.

[@maddoggnick96]

I’m glad you brought up the Sonic Advance games. They’re under appreciated.

[@otakumarcus]

I’m glad you’re finally playing this in celebration of the Sonic Movie

[@Faceless_time_traveler]

You know Sonic generations is a true tribute to the series when the credits show gameplay from all the games across the lifespan of the series wether good or bad . It's like the series embraces its glory and accepts its flaws

[@Zangetsu37]

I have never really been a Sonic fan, but I really enjoyed Sonic Generations. I'm glad you enjoyed it to Jirard.

[@fridgeinsanity9296]

The game is so much fun, I actually finally beated it a couple months ago in 1 night, generations is just one of the best games of the Sonic saga

[@maff4512]

Good Timing because the Sonic movie comes out in 6 days and so far on Twitter its positive

[@William1102-k1o]

I love sonic so much and this game just reminds me that sonic can still be amazing no matter what game came before it

[@secretgirlsky4976]

Classic sonic being able to honing attack as an unlockable skill was a cool thing they added aswell

[@Vexilor]

I love that in the intro sonic and the black knight and sonic boom are tucked away just in the corners 😂😂
