They should of remade this for the dreamcast. Fix some of the little quirks, expanded the size of levels, added more levels and more gameplay. I think it would of have been a hit. Perhaps since not many got to play the original it wasnt a well known game.
This game looks like a dry run for ideas ST would be using in Phantasy Star Online a couple of years down the line. Too bad you couldn't fly in the latter game...
Whether or not the Sega Saturn was more technically powerful than the Playstation 1 is difficult to determine due to the complexity of Sega's hardware. That said, this is without doubt one of the best looking 3D games on the Saturn. The Saturn did however have more RAM than the PS1 and as a result 2D games like Marvel Super Heroes VS Capcom looked far better on the Saturn.
@JoostRevo yes, but the people that were making sonic x-treme requested to use this engine because of time constraints. Yuji Naka, creator of NiGHTS said to sega something along the lines of "if you give them the engine i quit". So they got no NiGHTS engine and obviously didn't have time to come up with anything of their own. thanks to his dick move we have no sonic xtreme and saturn died a quick death.
@Karakta holding down the firelevel or escaping outbrakes made my heart go boom many times. the endbosses have been cool and weird . its more fun to play I guess.
God, I miss Sonic Team. Back in the day, they just couldn't make a game that was anything less than nearly flawless. Now all they do is make terrible Sonic sequels.
@JIMBO8472 some game magazines gave it bad ratings like 20 percent !!!! I really loved playing it, so crazy how the levels evolved, and the easter eggs were nice . )
@JIMBO8472 The PSX will NEVER be put to shame by the Sega Saturn. Not only did Sega throw away a PSX in some of their Saturn commercials, but they also failed at making the console good enough to last long enough compared to the PSX which got released one year before. I will acknowledge the DC however.
Honestly both the Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the dragon triologies plays and look better than this game. Those games even had facial expressions during every cutscene, more lifelike.
@Scourgeandmephiles93 the PSX had NO arcade conversions from CAPCOM like the saturn did. x-men cota, x-men vs. street fighter, marvel super heroes vs. street fighter, street fighter zero 3, and of course the almighty radiant silvergun. 2D was something PSX could not do.
@AlirazaVideoGames That is so untrue in every aspect. Ever heard of Rayman or Mickey's wild adventure? Those games are advanced 2D games. The PSX was good at handling both while the Saturn was meant as a 2D console. The Saturn had too much pop up in 3D.
@AlirazaVideoGames In favor to my last comment I wanna point out that this game has good 3D compared to what the Saturn was capable of. The reason why there's so much turning is that developers try to overshadow the pop ups on screen.
This is true. Sega consoles have always been about bringing arcade quality experiences to home and the Saturn was no exception. Like with the Genesis before it and the Dreamcast after it we saw many great arcade conversions brought to our living rooms and the reason why I still play and will continue to play games on Sega consoles is because they're the only consoles that have games with a true arcade feel.
@Scourgeandmephiles93 psx didnt get released one year before saturn. saturn launched in may 95,and psx got released september 95. theres only 4 months difference,lol.
I had no idea that the Saturn could put out 3D of this quality. Maybe if Sega hadn't killed their reputation with the 32x and completely botched up the Saturn's US release, the system could have been a serious contender against the PSX and N64.
Really fuck face, send me the link for a Prestine BR copy on ebay! And for your information nut fuck, I've sold it about a month ago here on Youtube to the highest bidder, more than what I was asking for!Please don't post stupid nazi comments on a board that doesn't give a shit about people who dont know the Vid market! Now run along and read a book you fucking cunt! God bless you piece of your moms shit!
You must have a lot of time on your hands to be reading someone elses comments!lol This is what you get for typing stupid shit that is already dead!! Now run along faget!
...That made no sense. For by the very means that you reply to my comment, means you read mine. So now you're a fag. And yes, I do have a lot of time on my hands. Wanna know why? Because I don't have to work. And why do I not have to work? Because I'm alot more economically intelligent than to have my source of income be selling retro games on YOUTUBE.
WoW!!! No job and stupid comments on the tube! I think someone should of stayed in school!lol Funny how you go on ranting about your whole life story explaning why you don't work!! Classic! I sell games for a living??!WTF???!lol Your a fucking retard!!!
For your information I didn't bother reading any comments on this board. You replied by hitting the reply button on the right hand corner, guess what that does deepshit??!! It sends a message to me regarding your stupid comment!! This is how I read your stupid shit!!!PWND!!!
I had this game, it was classic! pushed the saturn to the limits and certainly stood graphically on top of any ps1 game, especially the art design. While not pushing near the same amount of polygons as a top of the league n64 game such as jet force gemini this came damn close!
Wow, some really emotive voice acting! :) Is this the English version? I'm confused coz the writings in english but the speech is in Japanese (without subs)...
You'd be surprised how many games that are released in Japan are like that. It could be in the English version with Japanese voice acting turned on and subtitles off, or Japanese with English text. Guess will never know... Unless alpha2006br tells us.
