Sonic "Painfully Average" Chaos (Sonic Chaos Review)

[@TheLonelyGoomba]

Loved this game as a kid. Probably cos it was so easy and short. Made me feel like I was good at it.

[@Garrulous64]

After playing 8-bit Sonic 2 an easier game definitely hits the spot.

[@snikosink]

“Made my feel like I was good at it” oof

[@doozy5184]

Probably the same reason I like Megaman Xtreme for the Gameboy.

[@dylonyoung1841]

and I personally think that mecha green hill is a really good song in 8bit Sonic as well as Sonic 1 8bit's Labyrinth zone, as well as 8bit Sonic 2's Underground zone and Green Hills zone, do you think that too, @@Garrulous64?

Sonic Triple Trouble is my favorite Game Gear game out of all of them since it's a more balanced experience in terms of difficulty compared to 2 and Chaos. Along with 1, Triple Trouble is just fun to play. I also like a lot of the tracks in that game. Sunset Park Zone's music is especially my favorite.

[@Garrulous64]

Excited to play that one.

[@hyperthethiccboi8698]

I agree so much with u ace thst game is great but god damn does it have so many springs imagine somebody made a hack of triple trouble called sonic boom triple trouble

[@kyledonnelly8069]

When I was in school, we had a book fair. To do something new I saved up to buy a few books. This was in Scotland, and I remember how proud mother was, she told everyone that her son was such a nerd he wanted books with his pocket money. Long story short I spent my savings on three game gear games instead of the books, it broke her heart, one of those games was this. The other one was a zelda ii clone the other was psychic world, with psychic world I lucked out though. One the hardest playthroughs, my mother cursed them lol

[@raelogan]

I had this as like my first Sonic game as a kid, and used to play it for as long as the batteries lasted, desperately rubbing batteries against fuzzy blankets to get a charge because we were poor, lol. For years, the longest I got was the water level, and finally, in 2009, I finally beat the game on one full charge of batteries, and my GameGear promptly died for good on the "And Special Thanks to You" screen, and that always stuck with me.

The Mania team not only took inspiration from Knuckles Chaotix but the 8 bit Sonic games as well. Bloody Legends!

[@SarahAbramova]

In my opinion, because Shadow was canonically first created, he's the one that first had rocket shoes. However, I'm not sure if Sonic would have had a way to know about Shadow or his shoes, so it could just be a case of two people coming up with the same product/solution independently, which yeah, it happens.

Ok can you review sonic triple trouble.

[@userdetails1]

With a couple exceptions (couple of the bosses and emeralds) my main prob with the game was it just wasn't challenging enough, on the first run I flew through the game and got to the final zone. Not a cheap game either with a retail price of £25. I ended up doing self-imposed challenges to get a little more out of it by beating the bosses without rings or taking the underwater routes as much as I could on zone 5. btw on the 2nd zone boss you get a harder version(he has an extra segment) depending which pipe you go through just before reaching him. It's alright but felt like it could have been better if they spent more time and TLC on some of the level design. btw know what's funny? Sonic is (according to the cartoons at least) the "fastest thing alive" yet at the end of this game he chases the obese and middle-aged Robotnik on foot yet is unable to catch him.
