CGRundertow - SONIC SPINBALL for Sega Genesis Video Game Review

[DonteGameReviews]

OH NOEZ A DELAY

[xJoeEDangerouslyx]

Am I the only one who likes the Game Gear version? I've heard people bash it, but I liked it. I also think it should be re-released and remade for the 3DS in a collection. I liked the Pokemon pinball game too, and that had motion control if I remember correctly. That would be a cool option here. This game would be so rad if remade today.

[EkajTheSwordsman]

@xJoeEDangerouslyx Nobody who has sat down and played through the Game Gear version without any preconceived notions would bash it--people just bash it because they assume it must be bad! However, since the level design is essentially identical, it's still an inferior version of a solid game.

[ilikepieism]

I loved this game, the music is insainly catcy, its challenging and every table is like a adventure.... easily one Of the best sonic spinoff games ever

[Mrkatan630]

Eric rules!

[DrNo0Entertainment1]

This game kinda sucked I tried playing it again and couldnt play it for more than 5 minutes

[EkajTheSwordsman]

@DrNo0Entertainment1 Then you probably just don't like pinball games, because this is an excellent pinball game. Heck, it was probably the best pinball videogame ever seen on any console at the time.

[zoneBOMB]

I loved this game!...what a blast from the past!

[vulpixsmi]

They are also in the Archie sonic comics

[VonSeux]

this game was HARRD.... damm those final levels

[qqw52]

you..you can control your moving..... FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

[halfling2]

@qqw52 Lol, I didn't know that either. He said that and I had flashbacks of my childhood and not being able to get past the second level.

[qqw52]

@halfling2 right! time to break out the Genesis! 

[AshmoreVid]

the review forgot to say how awful the controls are, how stiff sonic is and how unfun the game is

[clays121]

@AshmoreVid Amen to that one, and the GameGear port of this was even worse, which was the version I had when it came out, and I nearly broke my GameGear, cause this game was so frustrating.

[CaptainSpyro]

@AshmoreVid While that is a fair point, I happen to agree with Eric. Yeah the game is not perfect, but back then I enjoyed it a ton, and actually beat it. Plenty of good memories with this game, as opposed to the ghastly 3D Blast.

[AdrianWindragon]

@AshmoreVid I never had a problem with the controls and I beat the game

[TheFloodFourm]

was there only 1 level?

[cobradvs]

@TheFloodFourm No, there are quite a few levels

[DeadOmega]

@TheFloodFourm If you watched the review, you'd be able to answer that question yourself.

[hockeyplaya131]

THE FUCKING FLIPPERS WORK INDEPENDENTLY!!!

ALL OF MY FUCKING RAGE!

[shadowtsunami]

i still have this game, my favorite levels are 3 and 4 because of the hecka cool music

[DaveTheSodaGuy0]

CLUCK ALERT!

[JackBandicootsBunker]

An example of why STi should have done the Sonic games instead of Sonic Team. They had better ideas, plus US Sonic canon is better than what Japan had.

[SerialNumberInvalid]

the beat is so catchy!

[eklipsegirl]

i'd rather eat my own shit than play this crap!

[glitchz1]

@eklipsegirl You again? cant you just go back to back to watching AVGN and trying to memorize every line of his episodes

[Quimbyrbg]

@eklipsegirl Well, off you go... Two girls One cup proved there was a market for those kind of vids, so don't forget to film it

[CharizardLv5]

I like the old school sonic games like sonic adventure 1 and 2 and the ones on genesis and sonic hereos one of my favourite things about most of them is crush 40.

[SkyMaro]

Why do the newfags feel the need to introduce themselves?

[GamerBaron]

Oh... the memories! I was addicted to this as a kid!

[kenbefound]

This game was the first of many disappointments to come in the Sonic legacy.

[321cheeseman]

@kenbefound

What? Sonic Spinball isn't a disappointment. It's a solid pinball game with a Sonic twist. Unless... unless you picked up a game called sonic sPINBALL and expected something other than pinball...

Now Sonic 3D Blast, there's a disappointing game.

[JoostRevo]

@321cheeseman Sonic 06

[321cheeseman]

@JoostRevo

I was talking about early disappointing Sonic games. If I were talking about later ones there would be a huge list, containing most of the games.

[JoostRevo]

@321cheeseman Okay then I find sonic 3d to be pretty fun

[pippo17173]

I will play that then sonic 3d blast.

[glitchz1]

[ShadowBreaker9001]
