3D Sonic Fan Game Engines: Which is better?

[MGMG510]

BGE is too shiny, dimensions is better in that aspect.

[Vassilis2000]

get dimension

[Vassilis2000]

nice pict i like sonic i want

[gokunarugo2]

subscribe for pingas?! I just might:)

[ultimategoku17]

Thumbs up this comment if you believe Sonic BGE Anniversary is a better engine than crappy Sonic Dimensions!:)

[ultimategoku17]

Sonic BGE Anniversary is better because Sonic Dimensions' Sonic Model is a bit stiff,buggy,and not much active as Sonic BGE Anniversary's Sonic Model.Though Sonic Dimensions has great graphics and BGE's is TERRIBLE,BGE is 95% better.Sonic Dimensions engine is alot slower than BGE engine and BGE has a whole lot of more work and its faster.Anyway the chances of your computer getting fucked by downloading the game is lower.But both engines will rape your computer while attempting download!

[kyosaebaDX]

BGE is my favorite. ^^

[MOZE2010]

I like Sonic BGE

[gokuvegetabatle]

sonic bge

[ThePloteron]

Both have hits and misses

Graphics:Sonic BGE

Gameplay:Sonic BGE

Ok really the only good thing I really found about sonic dimensions is the homing attack is faster

[twisterkid99]

I'll give BGE a winning spot in that it ATTEMPTED to put in a lot of graphical effort, but it seems a bit too fuzzy. As for the actually engine, I'd say Dimensions is a winner here.

[christiansoldier11]

Dimensions has louder sound effects and the colours are saturated on BGE, but i saw sonic get stuck on Dimensions, and the jump attack looks more realistic in Dimensions.

[sprite392]

Sonic dimensions!

[somecallmebreth]

sonic dime...

[SpeedySonicSSJ123]

Sonic Dimensions is perfect because it can run on my computer.=D

Oh! And hi OzCrashSonic!!

[torinthehedgehog]

I like Sonic BGE More

[SonikuXD]

SONIC DIMENSIONS

[TanatatKnight246]

COMBINE BOTH AND YOU GET THE ULTIMATE GAME

[kaiger395]

i say sonic bge anniversary

[Zkeleton969]

yes, generations is better, BUT THATS BECAUSE IT IS ON A CONSOLE.

IF DIMENSIONS WAS ON A CONSOLE, IT WOULD BE THE PERFECT SONIC GAME. NO GLITCHES, NO OBESE MIDGET SONIC, JUST PURE AWESOMENESS.

PERIOD.

[TheNeoFelicity]

bge

[TheCani2003]

sonic BGE anniversary!!!!!!!!!! i love it! i didnt actually like dimension one

[CoolTom1337]

So this is a test to see if we perfer OzCrash's work or SuperSonic68's work. Me personally? OZAN WINS! FATALITY!

[ImBudTheChud]

the one on the left looks like he is on ice

[ShadowandZerofan1997]

Same if BGE had dimension sonic model

[SuperSonicthehedgie1]

BGE is the best! More objects, Better looking boost, Drifting and better jump animations and awesome stages. It has the stuff to be made into a real game!

[OmegaMaxter]

imo, Dimensions looks better, graphically, but BGE looks like it runs better

[brianbarnettknox]

BGE looks TOO POLISHED for me, i like both the physics and stuff but dimensions doesnt look polished enough >.>

[CCrockyourass]

Dimensions is better because OzcrashSoNiC is a complete douchebag.

[freddacar]

do u have a website where i can check on the progress? this game looks like it'll be sweet.

[SpeedDemon61]

Don't know which to pick. If it's sonic abilities it's in my opinion BGE but if it's graphics it's Dimensions. Calling it a tie for now.

[Trifire3]

i like sonic dimensions better

[OzcrashSoNiC]

you guys are out of your mind. of curs bge is better, it has more features. i cant believe some guys here stupidly just look at colors or something. that's just funny hahaha.

[supersonicfootykid]

@OzcrashSoNiC Some people say Sonic dimensions (like me) because BGE doesn't work with intel chipsets

[OzcrashSoNiC]

@supersonicfootykid you must get a new pc :)

[MrMediamanx]

@OzcrashSoNiC fuckyou ass hole ha ha 90 % of code was from others. take it out and see what your left with.

[OzcrashSoNiC]

@MrMediamanx ??, 60% was from me, 40% from arrow.

[Linksonic5]

@OzcrashSoNiC

Your numbers are a bit off.

[OzcrashSoNiC]

@Linksonic5 i dunno what that means, really xD

[Linksonic5]

@OzcrashSoNiC

Jk

[supersonicfootykid]

@OzcrashSoNiC I already have

[WeEatBrainz]

@OzcrashSoNiC Or they could be looking at the far worse textures in most places. The worst examples of this are at 0:54, 0:57, 1:00

[OzcrashSoNiC]

@WeEatBrainz what are you even talking about, it's the same stage with same textures

[WeEatBrainz]

@OzcrashSoNiC If you look at the example at 0:54 you can clearly see the background texture is far lower res. I'm not saying the engine is worse, I don't care to use either of them, but there are many instances in this video where it looks much worse.

[OzcrashSoNiC]

@WeEatBrainz again, are you out of your mind? that's just a blur effect which can be turned off from options. it's not low resolution, you dunno anything about how a game is made. it's just an effect. if you dont like bge just dont play gah. im not gonna answer your messages again since you'ree talking non-sense without knowing anything about what something is. lower resolution background, haha you killed me to laughing. it's just an effect man. anyway. bye.

[WeEatBrainz]

@OzcrashSoNiC 1. That is clearly heavy pixelation unless this engine's depth of field effect is just horrendous. And again, because it objectively has more pixelation in that spot, you are going to say "herrp you dun knuw nuthin abut gaemz". Depth of field is not supposed to anything look like that, the map is poorly made throughout so maybe he just set up the dof settings poorly but if anything, the background would look smoother and blurrier not sharper and pixelated.

[OzcrashSoNiC]

@WeEatBrainz I don't talk like herp derp, really

[WeEatBrainz]

@OzcrashSoNiC Part 2. And depth of field shouldn't just be turned "on and off" , you should be controlling the depth, blur scale, bokeh shape, etc. I can see now that there is a horrible depth of field effect over the entire video it was just more noticeable there. And once again, I know this engine is technically better than the older one. I am just defending other people for saying the other one looks better in certain spots because it just does.

[WeEatBrainz]

@OzcrashSoNiC And finally. Here are the good parts that I see in the bge engine. Specular maps, better lightmaps, (many parts of the dimensions video are unlit), the fact that it has depth of field is a plus despite it being used very poorly in this video, the lighting on sonic himself, bloom, and more. The engine is very simplistic and all of these effects have been around for 5+ years. The only problems with the bge video is the shit dof and flickering overlapping textures in spots.

[gridhacker]

Dimensions has better graphics imo, but BGE has better gameplay.

[JesseGenesis89]

anniversary is better sorry

[maxi494]

And sonic gdk?¿?¿¿? Sonic gdk is the best!!!

[Chishado]

@maxi494 GDK don't count. BGE and Dimensions is both made with Blitz 3d coding. They can be compared. UDK professional/dev made engine which give graphics, lighting, and everything out of the box. you just have to understand the coding.

[06hypersonic60]

BGE BGE BGE BGE =D

[madman18able]

Sonic BGE runs smoother and alsois graphicly enhansed. Sonic dimensions doesnt have those lightning effects etc..

[turbotim33]

BGE Anniversary Looks like it runs better.

[freddacar]

@turbotim33 here here. also better detail

[Minecraft4peeps]

@turbotim33 True but deminsions is still in progress :D

[Sonic9000Xtreme]

I mean't to say,"animations".

[Sonic9000Xtreme]

Sonic dimension's color shade blends well amd the addition of faster animatios compensate for anniversary's special effects. But anniversary's colors are more vibrant, but a bit too vibrant to me. Also, the physics between the two differ. In conclusion, I think that dimensions is better

[shadowreptilezero]

sonic dimensions is definitely better without a dought, the graphics r good, animation is near perfect, and the colors appear to blend better

[Mrtubedude99]

sonic dimensions is better

[yoshimiysu14]

both sonic dimesions has more levels but bge runs more fluidly

[TheBlazingSparrow]

I think Dimensions is ... BETTAH!!!

from my experience BGE is okay,it has more features than Dimensions but I feel something is missing, the physics are kinda wrong, the homing attack is buggy and the lighting is exagerrated

[YouKnowThatGuyZX]

@TheBlazingSparrow but which one plays better is my question. i played sonic dimensions. after a ton of what was supposed to be pitfall deaths (and there are a lot of these moments) i tried to mod the controls. did not work.

[SonicTheKiller1]

BGE

[supersonicfootykid]

Dimensions at the moment because sonic bge anniversairy doesn't work with Intel chipsets

[lol76172]

@supersonicfootykid and i thumbs up ur comment :)

[edsterisawesome]

It still blows my mind why they're using BGE with it's eye-whoring Ultra Mode on. It looks 10x better with it off.

[123456789drew1]

It would be cool to combine them both.From experience making fan games, I know that Dimensions has better graphics and is easier to use, but BGE has more features and better gameplay.

[superman11111000]

sonic bge has abetter lightning system :U if any one noticed :)

[epicfail18081]

i prefer both of them. sonic dimensions has more levels, but BGE has more features. (limited boost, water running, quick step, etc.)

[ksteampoo1234]

good poo



[Sonicreporter]

Dimensions seems more about speed and jumping, like any true sonic game. And better graphics.

[poohhardy11]

a whole team is up against one guy and struggling

seriously sega should hire him before they get pwned by his epicness

[gnicho95]

the one on the left looks finish

but the one on the right look like a tech demo

so i have to say both of them looks great

[alexlovespokemonable]

bge has better effects and dimentions has better graphics so idk

[MASQUERADETR]

Sonic Dimensions!

[Loonmightthecoyote1]

Sonic Dimensions

[odioalospoopers]

i prefer sonic dimensions for the reason that this is many better for lowest computers that cant use BGE or computers with intel graphics card

[hypemiitrudog07]

BGE looks like sonic heroes, Dimensions looks like sonic colors. probably bge

[solosoloblackdude]

BGE seems overall better

[velvelification]

the difference is, from what i can see is only the shaders =A=

[ImsomniaCA]

BGE so owns dimensions...

[Enigma2Me]

Honestly, until the level design becomes more interesting, it makes very little difference to me.

[JaketheHedgehog135]

They both look good but the Dimensions springs enemies and item boxes look so small i'm afraid i might miss them.

[codey353]

Sonic BGE looks good, Great Physics but some parts are still "pixally". I play Both and I like BGE AND Dimensions.

[Samota0]

Sonic BGE seems to actually have a few more implementations than Dimensions.Better shaders,better "Sonic Physics",working objects.Both of them seem slippery and it actually seems that Dimensions plays out the running animations a lot more accurate than BGE.

Though I'm not too too pleased with the fact that they both base from the official gameplay.I'd like to see users implement their own style and get fans all hyped : ).

[FatetheHedgehog]

Each of them have their ups and downs. The boost animation for example, BGE has Dimensions beat for that, yet sonic dimensions seems to have a more fluent flow to it, and the graphic quality isn't as fuzzy (though that may just be the video, and yet it has its glitches with getting Hung up on something. I'm stuck between them, so I'll leave it there.

[hassoony1981]

BGE



[silvazeforever4269]

Sonic Dimensions is eaiser to see but it glithes to much.

[HedgehogGamers]

Blitz sonic just sucks ass period.

[TheKitsunebii]

BGE has great texture and modelling handling, not to mention awesome physics, but it lacks in accurate lighting from what im seeing. I did notice however that Dimension has almost no shading and lacks some of the model/ textures of the BGE, and has some noticeable clash/ flicker

[whatevers31]

BGE

[TheGarbageGaming]

sonic dimensions but with a closer camra

[sonicblitzsrb2]

it doesnt matter which game is better as long as u have fun with the game

[sonicblitzsrb2]

sonic dimension is differnt from blitz because its modified

[SVRsimulationz]

What i hate about BGE is that it dont work on Intel graphic cards.-_-

[redgia23]

Sonic bge

[redgia23]

I love bsg

[Ace1Eclipse]

for both engines the running kinda sucks... like when you run too fast in BOTH somtimes you can miss objects like checkpoints and enemies and springs. also bges got more levels (Althought there REALY hard to find I only Found 10) but SD has the camera and the control changability. SD also has the ability to change sonics models that BGE is missing...(._.' NO SHADOW! whaaah

[GameMasterUmbrax]

Honestly, I like the Sonic BGE better.

[eddylugia]

what about Sonic GDK?

[124SonicXT]

@eddylugia well GDK is just UDK with a Sonic built in engine. These were fan made with Sonic Blitz

[coolkr1]

SONIC BGE



[kennysuavo]

i like sonic bge better!

[DoctorCapitalist]

The level design in that Tropical island is pure shit (seriously? a spike on a loop where I have to boost to get up the loop?)

[DoctorCapitalist]

For running, boosting and spindashing, Dimensions has it best. Jumping in dimensions is okay but the jump ends a bit too fast which makes platforming a bit harder and more unpredictable. Homing attacking is also hard to judge and too instant. You zoom in on enemies too quick and there's no target icon or way of showing who you'll hit. BGE is much better in this regard, it also has better spring and falling mechanics.

[DoctorCapitalist]

Camera work is also better in dimensions, although a manual camera would be nice to help with turning around the other direction.

[DoctorCapitalist]

Actually I changed my mind to dimensions. Dimensions has tight controls once you download the 360 controller config. BGE is too glitchy IMO and feels kinda sluggish and weird.

[DoctorCapitalist]

Both engines aren't very good when it comes to loop de loops though. That should be fixed a bit better so I don't fall through them.

Also SuperSonic68, you need to fix it so that when you fall to death you don't need to restart the whole game lol

[DoctorCapitalist]

BGE wins imo, although the spindash in dimensions is better done.

[kenlohedgehog]

Sonic BGE for sure

[AWESOMEHBK1]

...

[Phoenixup13]

the only problem is the slippiness ^^' if the character's model had a denser gravity without affecting the animation and gameplay in general then i'd be well up for giving these a shot

[moho472]

I say Sonic Dimensions cause it feels like you can actually control sonic a bit better and its on Mac OS :P

[sonicagm]

in terms of graphics : Sonic bge

in terms of gameplay (i mean which controlling is better) : Sonic Dimensions

[06hypersonic60]

@sonicagm

Not totally agreed cuz dimensions doesn't have the camera control ( with mouse ) wich makes it a little bit harder + you can't respawn.

In bge you have these features + lots of others that are not in dimensions.

[GamesRing]

it is actully hard to choose but i have to say i think sonic bge is better

[markozova]

well.. i think sonic bge because its really awesome engine and it have a lot of features.. but.. i like that thing what in dimensions robots are folowing you... this is really awesome too...

[S0nicFANnumbah1]

Sonic BGE. Its controls are way better and you can actually die! Not to mention it feels like a real sonic game when playing.

[lreynolds070]

i say BGE becuse its phisics look more realistic

[liamisultimate7788]

You coud use modify the blitz engine for classic and use the BGE engine for modern

[AWESOMEHBK1]

@liamisultimate7788 hey cant i edit the source code to make it look better.......and if i can how d i find it??

[liamisultimate7788]

@AWESOMEHBK1 dont ask me im just commentating

[VennieToonsFilms]

bge. dimensions checkpoints are too small.

[madman18able]

I think they are both same cause BGE is using Blitz Sonic Ultra which is the early Sonic Dimensions so not much of a diffrence,,,

[ZombieCrazy100]

sonic bge

[SVRsimulationz]

Sonic BGE is what i think is better.

[StarStrikProductions]

None of them, until they finally get camera positioning sorted out. Honestly, you shouldn't have to use the mouse in a platformer.

[walle6135]

Sonic BGE: 50%

Sonic Dimension:50%

des:dimension is good at roll pshycic and bge is not cuse if you test speed highway you reconize that dimension has mush pshyci then bge and bge is good of its engine you can select stage even if you die you can select and the bad about sonic bge is that many of the stage you want to play fail and you get error message like ''Enity Has No Animation'' or memory accses volation

[supersonic71097]

demensions is MUCH better

[MegamanZXer77]

While I think the Blitz engine is just a bit crap overall, Sonic BGE Anniversary looks like it actually controlls better and is actually decent to look at, while Sonic Dimensions just looks bollocks

[x2Portal2x]

The One On The Right.

[JacklProductions]

BGE looks slippery

Demensions looks clunky

[sonimario2000]

ill chosce sonic BGE anniversrary. sonic dimensions 2 rings beside echother ring = to much noise in sonic dimensions

[sonicsuperstarprince]

I so wanna say BGE. But Dimensions had a few pluses of it.

[Abridgedspeed]

i say it depends on ur computer. my laptop isn't one of those powerful gaming pc's, so wen sonic goes too fast in bge, he lags through springs and launchpads. but dimensions runs smooth for me. if ur computer is strong and fast enough to take it, then bge is much better.

[guitarkUngf0o]

did you purposely make the contrast worse on sonic BGE? ive only played dimensions so thats all i can say...

[XxMrmoneyKing]

BGE is byfar the better version,(The other one isn't so bad either)

[xpuddy]

Sonic BGE.

[sonicfan341]

Yeah, I'd have to choose Sonic BGE.

[mspeter97]

sonic BGE looks better in animation

[MrMediamanx]

the thing is both used ripped content.

both are fine but i would have to go with my own set of engines.

"hog head caffine"

[r543Blitzsonic]

why is noone comparing BSU ?

BGE only has some more objects and ranking screen

[NoZeroNoHero]

I really can't tell but both of them look amazing TheSonicShow you guy out done ya self awesome job.

[scratch799]

These are both so good! I actually can't tell which is better.

[thesonicfan265]

Dimentions cuz BGE needs work and it don't work

[sonicfan341]

@thesonicfan265 It DOES work. Just not on Intel Graphic Cards.

[thesonicfan265]

@sonicfan341 i know :/ but i f U help me to fix it then i will thingk both are good

[MrJJwalrusboy]

Dimentions is not as good as BGE, but Dimentions would be very good to use on a weak computer i guess

[echo5017]

its BGE anniversary because it has : good animations , a good boost and has more features than sonic dimensions .

[CCrockyourass]

I'm going with Dimensions here. BGE definitely looks a lot better and has better animations and more features, but Dimensions has better controls and physics. Plus, Dimensions gets updated more often and I think it will eventually have features seen in Colors.

[Sederex]

Dimensions

[SONICDBZFAN07]

BGE is better to me

[SonicSuperDash]

Both are good. I just think the controls are a pain in the ass when you wanna explore a level. Going with BGE.

[jesse8894]

Well,Diminsions isnt bad, but i like BGE better. But Diminsions is still epic. Wouldent want TZ seeing this video,would we?

[SuperShadowify]

HERE WE GO! IT'S GO TIME!

Redundant hedgehog is redundant.

[Linksonic5]

Both are bad and good in their own way. I don't like to name favourites though.

=D

[SonicGenerationsNov1]

BGE ANNIVERSARY

[sonictrainer]

BGE

[pdiorio258]

BGE hands down

[TheDevilBreaker]

Couldn't the two engines just be combined. One like like a success visually while the other has better gameplay uses like the shart turning. Couldn't a combined engine or program be made instead?

[11Supersonic11]

BGE. Dimensions won't let me change the controls. And I prefer FPS controls over the auto-rotate-when-you-turn controls.

[Axxidous]

I think the Sonic BGE Anniversary looks a little more professionally done and animated and has better colors and angles. But the Sonic Dimensions one looks a little better on the lighting and textures and a bit on the maneuvering (idk if I spelled that right. lol)

I think I heard Ryan Drummond's voice at the beginning next to Roger's? o.o If so then wow they do sound kinda similar there. lmao XD

[SuperRazor1969]

the best is Sonic GDK not Bge or dimension but in this 2 the better is bge
