Whoever designed these special stages should be drug out into the street and shot... or worse... tied to a chair and forced to play them over and over and over
lol once I figured out you could be supersonic by the end of the first level my life as an 11 year old turned into making that happen. I have all this so memorized to this day I can do it in my sleep. I don't think I ever tried to beat the game without being super sonic...lol
Awesome! I always thought there were only 3 posts in act 2... you made things much easier for me! (I used to just do the music codes to get super sonic in green hill zones)
Yes, this was recorded in Gens. I played Sonic 2 as a kid back on the Genesis, it probably took a little over a year of casual play before I knew all the special stages by heart.
Wow! I still can't get past the thirrd special stage. What is the CPU Speed? On my dueal code Macbook, I run Gerereator and the framerate is below 30 every time
I mean, today's games are awesome with Graphics and sh*t, but really, i enjoy pulling out my Mega Drive and play Sonic, MJ's Moonwalker, Shinobi, Streets of Rage and stuff then most of the new games...Today everything is about Graphics and how can i make a movie - like story and let somebody play over 40 hours....screw that !! I prefer simple graphics with funny noises and short gameplay but entertainment man ! Give me a thumb up if you agree with me !
I agree so much. Back then they really had to use their imagination to compensate for the limited graphics they had and the games then were timeless. All those games you mentioned are like the Mozart of gaming, they are the classics!Think of paper boy! Its a game where you go along on a bike and chuck newspapers at shit. Or road rash where its a bike race accept you can start whipping the other racers with chains. And they're great! If game makers were smart they'd make a streets of rage4!
Dude, that is so Damn True! Vid/ Online games today are just made to eat your time and give you a fat ass. It's not about having fun anymore.. Its about making money.
u can get this along wit all de other great sega games for de ps3 now!!! i got it and its brilliant!!! all de sonics, golden axe, streets of rage, the list goes on!!
I was only like 3 or 4 when i started playing this I used to have so much fun even though i sucked i was good at the special ring stages though they were fun.
This is going to sound really stupid but I've played this game so many times that during the special levels, I memorized all of the jumps of the bombs and where the rings are, but when I forget, I listen to the music to help me figure out what part of the stage i'm on.
they're supposed to let you turn into Super Sonic (just Sonic but faster, yellow, and invincible). I've never done this though since I don't know how to get super sonic after getting the chaos emeralds
I only had sonic 1 and this was amde b4 even i was born (my parents wen in their 20's bought a megadrive) the onbly sonic game we had was the first one, i feel like goin in to GAMEtm and buyin a preowned copy now
Honestly, I would rather play Sonic the Hedgehog 1, 2 & 3 on Sega Genesis. Sonic & Knuckles, Sonic 3 & Knuckles and Sonic 3D Blast on Sega Genesis. Six games than on the Virtual Console. Why? Because the score really don't matter and don't save.
You may not be a super player, but you're still pretty dang good; you've done incredibly well and never got hit once.

You must hit a "star post" with at least 50 rings to enter a special stage. You will be able to tell from the stars dancing around the post.

So on the oldshool genesis version you dont get anything special for getting the emeralds?
Like on the 360 port you get an achievement. I would think you would at least get like 5 extra lives or something other than points!?

In the process of doing this on the Xbox Live port. On 6th special stage with 5 emeralds already collected.
