Sonic CD

If you ask the owners of the Sega Genesis Sonic games which of their favorite, the answer could vary between Sonic the Hedgehog was first to introduce the blue hedgehog, Sonic 2 is touted as the best Sonic title, or even Sonic 3 which is developed simultaneously with Sonic & Knuckles. All three games have been a reference to the classic Sonic games best. However, there is a classic Sonic game that seemed missing from the hands of the gamer: Sonic CD.

To know why there is a game titled the blue hedgehog who is notpopular in the market we have to dig a little history of the platform where he was released: Mega-CD. Sega is one of the mostcreative game. In addition to creating console games, Sega also released various add-on to the console. In 1991 the rivalrybetween the SNES and Genesis was at its hottest and the olderSega consoles two years starting cornered. Recognizing thisdoes not remain silent and Sega Mega-CD created, an additional tool for the CD player installed in Genesis. This strategy was initially successful. Just imagine, Genesis with add-on is now able to play games with FMV movies in it!Unfortunately, because the price is too high and at least gradegames in it, making it eliminated from the competition andbecame an increasingly sinking ship anchors in the competitionagainst Nintendo Sega.

Yet some gamers who had to have the add-on Mega-CD has a strong sense of nostalgia with a Sonic game that was released specifically for him, namely Sonic CD. After the ‘death’ Sega Genesis, the only way for gamers to enjoy the game is through packet Sonic compilations released on various consoles like the Nintendo Gamecube and Playstation 2. Nearly two decades after the game is released, Sonic CD is now released for the mobile market by Sega. How were the results?

Almost the same with most other classic 2D Sonic games, Sonic CD presents seven zones to be explored by Sonic. There are such zones and the Palmtree Panic Tidal Tempest which is a standard Sonic zones, green zones and water zones, but most other zones have the same representation of the themes that is metal. Quizzed had inquired is because this game takes place on a planet called Little Planet that the material is mostly made of metal. Once again Sonic must stop Dr Eggman / Robotnik who somehow already entrenched there with his cronies. More serious is the mad scientist has created a clone named Sonic Metal Sonic and Sonic have been kidnapped girlfriend, Amy Rose. Can the blue hedgehog and his girlfriend to save the world?

What makes Sonic CD is different from the Sega Genesis Sonic games on the other? Of course the graphics quality. Though nothing compared to modern 2D Sonic kinds of Sonic Rush, Sonic Colors, especially Sonic 4, this game has obvious direct graphic quality and level design is much broader than its compatriots. Change does not just happen on the cosmetic outcome but also on gameplaynya. Sonic CD, which was released a year before Sonic 3, introducing a much broader arena than Sonic 2. Not only can adventure across three levels in each zone, Sonic CD also introduced a system of time travel .

Each level is divided into three different time lines: Past, Present, and Future. You start the game in the present but when passing a marker of time with high-speed, Sonic can skyrocketed to levels in the past or the future. Although roughly the same level, there are design changes and the enemy who made ​​fresh to play that level again. If you play with the ‘true’ then you can finish the zone and get a good settlement, which give a gift an alternative ending to this game.

In addition to the exploration of different levels, Sonic CD has a boss battle with Dr. Robotnik’s unique. There is no single level that requires you to repeat the same strategy as to how long or beat it. This makes meeting with each boss felt different and challenging.

Remake this was meant to give gamers a bonus. After you complete this game once, you can open up a new character; who else if not a man loyal Sonic: Tails. Tails of motion that can fly with its tail to give different nuances in the game. Tails are not as fast as Sonic in the running, but flying ability allows the sidekick to access places that are difficult to achieve without the blue hedgehog speed and precise control precision.

When you gamers that grew with the 2D Sonic games that have a characteristic level-level call a flash Gameplay, Sonic CD is a blast from the past that the fans can not miss the blue hedgehog. This remake is a chance you luck one of the best adventure!
