Okay, simple synopsis from me regarding Sonic CD in one phrase: "Style over Substance". It looks cool, it sounds amazing, but that's at the cost of the gameplay. It feels more like a glorified tech demo than an actual fully realized Sonic project.

[@dookski]

Every sega game fits this description. Like you think you’re having fun for a while

[@PoutingTrevor]

No way is Sonic CD a glorified tech demo. It's amazing and is the most complete package of any 2D Sonic game. Frankly, Scott's review illustrates how little he understands the game. He even says he didn't want to locate the robot generators or collect the Time Stones, also known as 50% of the game. He basically played through it once and made a review, and knowing that many people don't seem to like it, he just regurgitated the opinion. Imho you can't praise Sonic Mania and disparage Sonic CD - which is exactly what Scott does - as so much of what makes that game great comes straight out of CD.

[@pepsican4210]

@@PoutingTrevor i agree with your opinion, i love sonic cd, but if someone doesnt like 50% of the game or didnt want to play the 50%, it doesnt make their opinion invalid. i can understand why someone wouldnt get the time stones or generators in that game because thats just tedious and boring to some people. and thats ok. that isnt misunderstanding. thats just understanding what you like and dont like. his and many others opinions are stiil valid even if you personally see the fun in it.

Despite being a Nintendo Kid since getting an NES for Christmas '88 and an SNES on release, when I saw the first Sonic commercial on TV (I think during Magical World of Disney on some random Sunday night) I was blown away... I kept waiting for it to air again with my finger on the VCR record button. I finally got it and spent hours analyzing every frame. Did not appreciate the mud slinging at Mario but other than that, it was a huge turning point for Genesis. Games were pretty clunky and desaturated before then with stuff like Altered Beast and Strider acting as representatives of the system. Sonic was colorful, fast, and just felt.. modern. I still think that Nintendo won the first console war eventually but for a brief moment, Sonic's light was bright and everyone took notice.
