While this may seem slower and shorter, when compared to it's sequels, I still love this game. I return to it often because it's short, sweet, and to the point. A solid platformer... but the emeralds aren't worth it. This is coming from a guy who got the emeralds so many times. If you haven't played it, give it a shot.

[@LeonGun8]

Well he does mention the fact he never played it at all. And for good reason,he grew up with Sonic 2 and 3. I can tell that he was hesitant to even talk about it because there's no way to make an objective review of Sonic 1 after experiencing everything that came after. After all, most of the problems with Sonic 1 are fixed in the games after it.

[@attackofthetheeyecreatures3472]

I've been going back to Sonic 1 more and more, mainly because I've played the other 2D ones to death. I do like the platforming, music, and slight difficulty... and the fact that I got a copy of it for the original Genisis is pretty neat. Also, if you want, review Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory.

[@UltimateCarl]

I haven't played the original in... I dunno, probably at least 10 years, probably longer, but I remember having SO MUCH trouble with the chaos emerald stages. I've finished the game at least three times and I don't think I've ever even gotten 5 of them, let alone all 6. I was a little surprised to hear you call them easy, but maybe I just really, really sucked at it when I was younger.

[@andreverschoor9447]

Those were my thoughts exactly! I think my record I've gotten before is maybe 3 emeralds? I always would spend like 10 min on one chaos emerald stage only to not get it. I will admit that I never played a Sonic game longer than 5 min until Sonic Heros though. I personally hated that game but it technically was my first major introduction to Sonic other than Sonic 2 when I was very little but I don't remember playing it really. Just screenshots of it in my memory.

This is the first video game I ever "played". I put played in quotations because my earliest memory is in the hospital, after my mother was killed in a car accident, with my older sister (who was seriously injured in said accident) when I was 2 years old. My dad bought my sister a Sega to help her stay positive while she went through some painful physical therapy. She would hand me the player two controller while she actually played the game, and I would happily press buttons and cheer her on. There is a lot of baggage attached to this game for me, obviously, so I love it unconditionally. Thank you for not just trashing it.

I don't know where I would rank it when it comes to other sonic games since I haven't played enough of them but from the time I have played this game I definitely got my enjoyment out of it. I do have a lot of fondness when it comes to getting the chaos emeralds in this game. I always loved that bonus world theme.
