Easily the best Sonic game on iOS. For once the controls feel playable, and it's really smooth. Good on SEGA for putting in the effort for a complete overhaul, not just a lazy port....(looks at the first 2 games)
Hey Taxman, great work on the game and good luck working for future projects on SEGA, I just wanted to say I always been a fan of your engine since Retro Sonic on Dreamcast, also thanks for the video but I was hoping to see the looping music effects,I guess I will see once the game is out,. day one purchase XD
You Guys Made It To Your Goal Of Getting Sega To Team Up With You Guys On This Enhanced Original Sonic CD Graphic Remake! And During A Huge Year. You Guys Also Recreated The Most Popular Classic Sonic Game For The 20th Anniversary Of Sonic The Hedgehog.
@goku262002 Oh okay, yah This version of Sonic Cd is not just some simple port like those Sonic Games in the Sega Mega Drive collection. This has a new game engine with gameplay options.
@howieization Yes The Sonic Gem Collection, Released for Nintendo Gamecbe and Playstation 2 in 2005, The Gem version of Sonic is a enhanced port of the PC version. Though it lacked color of water in the tidal tempest stage. The Gem collection also contains the instructions manuals digitally stored on Disc of both the SEGA Cd manual and the PC manual.
Well Im getting it on the PSN for the PS3, I have it with the Sonic Gem Collection on PS2, so i am going to have access to both the Japanese soundtrack and the U.S Soundtrack.
@howieization Apparently No it is going to just have the Japanese Soundtrack, The U.S one is not planned for release due to issues with licensing, however SEGA is looking into a Solution.
Actually SEGA is planning to release Sonic CD for the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad in Late 2011. It's on their official website. Thumbs up so people will know!
This guy is using the sega genesis emulator for iPhone (genesis4iphone) and a copy of the Sonic CD ISO... so there is no such special adaptation whatsoever.
@fbloise durp. He developed the app himself to run the game @ 100% playability and have the sound working 100% fully. Last time I checked, the genesis4iphone ran Sonic CD @ crappy framerate and with no sound.
@BestfanX oh yes, i sure heard that it's finally coming! i'm actually more excited for this than i am for Sonic Generations, because i've waited so long for a good port.
@DejaBlue95 They should make a enhanced version of Sonic 3 and Knuckles that is, in other words Simply known as Sonic 3, like have Sonic with Tails through both games as a option and so fourth with all stages included, as Sonic 3 and Knuckles apparently excludes Big Arm Battle for Sonic.
i find it crazy that they have Sonic Spinball but not CD
if they had 3&K instead of Spinball I wouldn't be that mad but really.
also if you played Sonic 4 and got the good ending(SPOILER) and saw Metal Sonic who thinks Sonic 4:Ep2 will be a Sonic CD remake. or at least have some of the levels.
I actually want this guy to release Sonic CD on app store. Knowing Sega, they'll just release a crappy emulated port, with terrible controls, and U.S. soundtrack only.
Did you change some of the data from the original so it will work on the iPod touch or did you download it and extract it so you can mess with the files
Oh my god what an awesome idea! But could you do me a huge favor? Please use the original music, if you can't find it, I do have the original cd somewhere, I could rip the music for you.
@NathanSifu This is the original music! Which was used in PAL and Japan regions. You must be talking about the US soundtrack. I prefer the original soundtrack!
@NathanSifu haha actually this music IS the original music, it's the soundtrack used for the Japanese and European version. The entire soundtrack was remade for the American version.
dont wait any longer for their damn approval! put it on cydia or rock! ive been waiting for almost a YEAR checking back on the two channels this is featured on and nobody is doing a thing! im thinking you guys just ported it for yourselves and decided to show it off. sorry if im being rude but it really seems like that.
holy crap i want this game on my iPhone. This is the most underrated Sonic game ever. It deserves to be on the iPhone, since it would only be it's second port from the original Sega CD
@Kamon62 I heard that regurgitated plenty of times. I'm doubting the validity of that statement. If it's a _port_ which is optimized that's one thing and is much more believable. _Recoded_ from scratch I'll have to see some source code before I start to believe that.
Dude. This is my childhood. I would pay ANYTHING to get this. If sega says no... Could you maybe put it on cydia plllzzzzzzzzz. I would be forever greatful. I NEED THIS
i pray for an option that lets you change the music from usa to jp/eur or vive versa, because i never really cared much for some of the us tracks. or have an option to choose the songs for the levels like in castlevania dracula x chronicles.
I would seriously kill to have this right now, especially because of how smoothly it runs and how things are shifted so that the buttons aren't in the way.
It would be a stretch at $15 but I think I'd pay it.
Wow this actually worked lol
