So, I'm not a 2D Sonic guy! I tried Sonic Mania and Sonic Origins. Solid games, but I can't quite say my nooby brain has wrapped itself around what made 2D Sonic compelling... until now. While it's maybe not the case for vets, Sonic Superstars is exactly what the doctor ordered.

I can understand Matty, while I did grew up with both 2D and 3D Sonic, I prefer the 3D era. Sonic Super Stars is really approachable to not just ogs, but newcomers as well to the series.

I agree to an extent. 3D Sonic has the most potential in my opinion but that potential still has yet to be fully tapped into. We’ve always been so close yet so far with 3D Sonic unfortunately. Sega really needs to stick to their working formula in Frontiers because if they trash it all over again for a random new formula they scrapped together last minute (like they did with ALL of their previous gameplay styles)…let’s just say I won’t be happy

@@Pan_Frytek nope. You know, I feel that most of the drama within the community comes from the fact that there's too much variety among us and we will disagree what's the best and what's the worst constantly. I really liked the verticality and exploration of Cd, it felt like a fast-paced metroid game, and it was great constantly changing the level due to time travel. Also, I really enjoyed the special stages (which I usually despise and think drag on the experience) and I appreciate how they put a f*cking stone before the goal in case I didn't manage to get enough rings for the special stage. It was a really nice experience 👌 Also, it isn't nostalgia as I completed the classics and Mania this year, and I never played CD when I was a kid. So yep, I do think Sonic 3 & Knuckles is amazing (mostly the bosses), but I fell in love with CD.

2D classic Sonic, as much as I hate to say it, kind of IS about memorization. The more you replay it the better you get and the faster you can go through these levels. If you play a Sonic game only one time, you're missing the point. These games have always pulled equally from arcade style design and from F1 racing. The 3D games are easier to get into because they use this same design inspiration, but because you can almost always see what's ahead of you, it's much easier to do well on your first time through. Though, 2D Sonic CAN be enjoyed on a first try based on your skill and your understanding of the stage layout language, because you can sometimes predict what's coming up, you can stay aware during passive traps that drop you onto a lower path or kill you if you don't jump or roll at the right time. I highly recommend you watch Pariah695's videos on Sonic, he's covered all the games up through Black Knight and he does these analytical deep dives into the mechanics and game design, it's really cool and they could help you enjoy all Sonic even more.

Yoh! I got the game and I played it, I finished it some days ago, and I LOVED it. It's a very fun game and it has a decent length and replayability! If I had to complain about something, the co-op is too unforgiving when you're a bit out of the camera, and I wish we were allowed to hit bosses more than once per turn. Oh yeah, and I will never understand why there's no online co-op, but oh well. But yeah, the levels are fun, it's nice that the powers are optional, it's great to have a second campaign, and the bosses are really fun! The final bosses are fun to fight against too (however, I do think that them having two phases is a bit too much, maybe put a checkpoint between phases because my god I wanted to cry hahahahahaha) CD is still my favorite one, but after it, I would put Sonic3&Knuckles and Superstars, they're VERY different games, but both gave me similar excitement while playing them!

So from what I've seen across youtube, this game is surprisingly divisive, especially considering it's a 2D Sonic game. I see videos claiming everything from "it's the best 2D Sonic game since the Genesis era" to "it's trash" to "it's alright...it's fine". Here's the thing, whether it's 2D or 3D Sonic, the games have pretty much always existed in two school's of thought. The first being based around momentum based speed, emphasis on platforming and stage exploration. This was the focus of the Genesis era games and even continued into the transition into 3D with Sonic Adventure. Then Sonic Adventure 2 came out and the Advance games, where a noticeable shift occurred. This brings me to the second school of thought when it comes to level design in a Sonic game. The second being based around more linear stages that emphasize taking advantage of environmental inclusions such as dash panels, rail grinding and tricks to gain speed. Then came the "Boost" era which further leaned into this roller coaster of split second decision making to navigate stages. The thing is, you can't really have both. The classic style of gameplay will always be a bit slower so as to take advantage of more exploratory stage design, while that level of freedom and exploration will always be hindered by the pure emphasis on speed that you see from what came out post Sonic Adventure. While I enjoy both of these styles, I do think it's been long overdue to see that classic style of momentum and exploration return. For my money, I think Sonic Superstars does an excellent job of playing like an honest to goodness classic Genesis era Sonic game!

I recommend going back to the older 2D games if you finally got into it. Holding neutral (letting go of the D-pad) is an important skill in Sonic so you still move forward but you have a better reaction time for keeping the flow. I'm loving that they finally got the physics right mostly, but i'm having issues with attention to details, automated gimmicks that don't use momentum, some dodgy music.

I fully agree with this. Mario games are incredibly fun for a short while, but they aren’t infinitely replayable like Sonic games are; thus giving Sonic games infinite value to me no matter how long or short their main campaign is.

Nick why are you laughing cause we didn't say mario is the better . So what mario isn't a god send that can't be toped especially since even sonic hater says classic games were the good ones . And we didn't even say wonder is bad im pretty sure its amazing but now it needs to be ready for superstars

Just a warning that the game gets really hard when reaching the end, even more for a 8 year old After you finish the game you also unlock a new campaign and that one is almost BS levels of difficulty, so I would advise to warn your little cousin before or they're going to be very frustrated lol

I think wut helped u is that they capped the speed of superstars for the sake of the co-op. most classics R uncapped so u can fly if u're good. as a longtime fan this is not replacin my fav among the classics(CD), & I doubt it will for others like me but it's "good" wit no caveats overall. It's basically the New super mario bros. of sonic games & that kinda limits it in some respects but that's fine as they'll improve & don't fall into the trap of "same game wit minor difference every few yrs" syndrome like those mario games did. I jus wish the ost had more bangers. This is near "perfect" to be someone's 1st classic sonic game. Since it really isn't much else other than "A Classic Sonic Game" & that's fine here. point is I liked it

I’m happy with a lot of things about the game like inclusion of co-op, playable Amy, good physics, etc. I am also enjoying my play through for the most part. However, the game does feel a little generic to me. Whether it’s a lack of detail compared to the pixel art in the previous games (especially some parts on switch), quite a bit of songs being pretty boring, maybe something about the checkpoint special stages too idk. It’s hard to put my finger on exactly what I don’t like, but it doesn’t bring me nearly the same joy as mania.
