  • IS TTHIS 4 PS3?

  • @SUPERVEGITO554

    XBOX 360, PS3, Andriod Devices, idevices (ipod touch/phone/pad), and PC.

  • Am I the only one who thinks it's a little strange that they changed the spin dash animation to the one from the genesis titles?

  • @Lunkhead2

    You can choose that or the sonic cd spindash.

  • @Desilent49 Ah, I see

  • i have a question. Why wasnt tails on Sonic CD on mega cd?

  • I wants this game so bad! But my stupid Xbox 360 broke, and I has no PS3.

  • @kh3ds

    PC version, $5, can you pc your Sonic CD?

  • Damn this Sonic game is so good it makes my balls hurt.

  • Tails created a good future. Disappoints players until sonic 4 ep 2

  • I wish they released this for the Wii or the 3DS. Why do they neglect Nintendo? Easy. GRAPHICS. That's what everyone cares about nowadays.

  • @TheROBLOXAlexMario

    Actually, putting this on the Wii wouldn't be the problem. The reason it's not on there is because Nintendo's horrible file size limits (40MB). As for the 3DS, I don't know why.

  • @Desilent49 I want to think the Wii-U will change that, with how they're handling storage both within the system and externally.

  • I got the good ending and destroyed all the holograms and machines... as tails. FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU

  • So who made the new Tails sprites? Sega or one of the other companies involved with this release? BTW, props to Sega for actually putting some effort into this re-release. I wish more old school re-releases received this sort of attention and care...

  • @thepenguin55

    A member of Sonic retro, also to note, Tails had a sheet for Sonic CD already if I recall. Just a few frames were missing.

  • @Desilent49 Really? I know that Sonic CD was released after Sonic 2, but I believe development begin some time before Sonic 2 (which would explain Sonic CD's abundance of Sonic 1 sprites) and I believe that the only reason it wasn't released before Sonic 2 was because the Sega CD (or Mega CD) attachment had been delayed. If memory serves....Sonic CD was nearly complete before the attachments delay. Uh, in short, that's why I find that surprising. LOL

  • @Desilent49 Also, I think I know what Sonic retro member you're talking about....maybe. I feel so uninformed! lol. After the disaster known as Sonic '06 I kind of fell out of the loop when it comes to Sonic related news....

  • @Desilent49 The Taxman worked on this game, (At least the graphical changes) so I would think he made the other sprites.

  • @kh3ds

    Graphical? Taxman is behind the entire engine running the game, literally this game was rebuilt from scratch to support widescreen and a constant 60fps as well as a few other enhanced features. The tails sprites were handled by another individual though.

  • SONIC CD FTW

  • I disliked this! :D

  • @TheRealDanielGlior

    ME TOO!

  • @Desilent49 Someone pay this man!

  • ¿What happens if the game is left unpaused for 3 minutes with Tails, the same "I'm outta here" from Sonic or another one?

  • @Lukethehedgehog1

    Nothing, tried it the other week and nothing happens, game just keeps going.

  • Comment removed

  • i really want to play this,being a fellow sonic developer, but i don't have the points...

  • @TheRealDanielGlior huh... dude Tails was in all those games you just said besides Sonic 1 of course so, pretty much your just making a fool out of yourself plus he was one of the many reason those games were great. take Sonic 3 and knuckles for example you were able to fly with him and also co-op with him when you were with a friend which added to the fun so your argument is invalided PERIOD!

  • @TheRealDanielGlior

    I don't see what's wrong with adding extra playable characters, especially since the game is still the same with an extra ability. Plus some people have liked Tails from the beginning PERIOD!

  • @Desilent49 Rub your only two brains cells together please so maybe you can come out with something creative and original instead of stealing from others. PERIOD! ^_^

  • @TheRealDanielGlior

    Cookies are bad when you leave them on the floor for an extended period of time. They are only good when retrieved baked fresh from the oven, otherwise you only have a rotten crumb out of thousands of good crumbs that hate being the odd one of the bunch.

  • @TheRealDanielGlior

    I'll make it simple for you to understand. You're 1 of few people who dislike other Sonic characters out of thousands upon thousands of people that do. You're the crumb that fell on the floor that doesn't matter because you think you're right about everything telling others the same word because you say they're below you for not liking something with you.

    Capisci?

  • @Desilent49 But I am right. LMFAO! ^_^

  • @TheRealDanielGlior

    Fo sho'? :o

  • Comment removed

  • @TheRealDanielGlior sorry to say but your opinions are just as good as ours you are in no position to say that your opinions are facts. Which that in itself does not make sense. An opinion is your own thoughts on something, like a game. a fact is something like Solid Snake is voiced by David Hayter. But to say that your opinion stands above everyone else is just plan out ignorant. Those games are great but to say they are the best is your opinion. Now That's a Fact.

  • @TheRealDanielGlior I'm guessing you forgot about Knuckles in Sonic 2

  • @TheRealDanielGlior What's wrong with adding new characters?

    Nothing. You fanboy.

  • @TheRealDanielGlior so your saying sa2 is bad?really im laughing my ass off looking at your comment,additionally you're just like the "oldsckool fans"of sonic,the very hypocritical group so called fans of sonic.I'm an REAL fan who ENJOYS every sonic game EQUALLY.

  • @DewottFan *school If you're going to interact with me then you will at least spell your words correctly. Scrub.

  • @TheRealDanielGlior notice "k" and "h" are sort of close to each other so think about mistyping,asshole.

  • @DewottFan Random scrub trying to make money off of me. LMFAO! Shut up now, please. ^_^

  • @TheRealDanielGlior what?That proves nothing of payment.

  • I wish they had at least a voice actor. How hard can it be to use the voice from Sonic Generations say "Yeah!" And "I'm outta here!"? An intro would have been nice, too.

  • i <3 tails 3d sprite in the special stage :DD

  • I still have this on sonic gems collection

  • @MetalSonicDash

    Gems collection version is inferior to this version, get it if you can.

  • I'm gessing he doesn't have his own cutscenes. :(

  • you can still some get achievements with level select.

    SUCK ON THAT CHRISTIAN WHITEHEAD!

  • wait if you hadnt collected the stones howd you make a good future?

  • @zwataketa

    Destroy the robot generators/teleporters in every stage. There's 2 per stage in the past of each stage.

  • too bad we can't play as Knuckles in Sonic CD, that would have been so cool!

  • as happy as I am with this, why doesn't tails' sprite move when he flies?

  • @skinnydipper16

    You're watching a video on youtube

    Youtube puts the framerate down on videos

    Tails' tails appear to not be moving because of this.

    I have spoken.....

  • @Desilent49 ORRRRR it's because tails' tail never moved, ever, if you don't recall...

  • Huh. So they added Tails to this port of Sonic CD? Interesting.

  • !!!

  • @alexlp2k10

    An intruder has been detected?

  • @Desilent49 How much is this game?

  • @alexlp2k10 It's $4.99! Quite a steal if you ask me.

  • I cant even play this at a normal speed even with the Sharp setting on it goes way to fast on my GPU

  • @JesusRamirez44

    It's running too fast on your PC? That's weird, it should be locked to 60fps.

  • @Desilent49

    Its only at 60fps when I play in Windowed Mode but in Full Screen its over 80fps

  • It locks to the refresh rate of the monitor, so make sure it's set to 60hz

  • when he flies, are his spinning tails really static like that?

  • @ElementalChaosLP

    The video isn't very smooth, his tails spin when he flies. You can't tell because of youtube =o 

  • It's the subtle effects you have to appreciate.

    Objects that used to appear and disappear every other frame to give the impression of transparency now actually are transparent.

    Objects that used to rotate choppily are now super smooth.

  • @InsanimationStudios Yes, I've noticed them as well. The silky-smooth Special Stages with smoothly scaling (yet still obnoxious and hard to hit) UFO's is much appreciated. Still have issues with the jumbled level design and *sigh*, WACKY WORKBENCH.

  • HD,JP SOUNDTRACK, TAIL?!!?!?!?!?!?! win.

  • You just have to admire those custom sprites. :D

  • another fun fact: it was one fan that added all the new features. sega originally had no plans to release this but this guy started a campaign on his website. he got an law order, but sega still wouldn't do it, so he decided to do it himself using the original game, it took him a few years and then went back to sega and they bought it off him.

  • @100Dylman

    I don't remember the law order, but I do remember when it was first shown. I do believe it was first shown on the ipod touch.

  • @Desilent49 i don't know the exccet term, but something along those lines.

  • @100Dylman That's not true at all.

  • @Madskillz434 if u play the game, u will c that one of the companies is just "christian whitehead" that must be his name.

  • Is it me or do the Special Stages look more...polished (HD-ish)?

  • @sonicsuperstarprince

    They pretty much are, the much better framerate and engine that the game is running on helps a lot.

  • Whoever done those special stage Tails sprites is such a boss.

  • I Have this game for Tablet!

  • Does Tails perform the Peel-out move?

  • @gridhacker

    nope

  • I wonder what would happen if you did the 'I'm outta here!" thing with tails

  • @ClassicModernGamer

    I waited for 5 minutes, nothing happened with Tails =|

  • @Desilent49 how does amy react to tails? does she grab him like she would sonic?

  • @thegamerguru97

    Amy is removed when playing as Tails. The blockage in Collision Chaos is gone and in Stardust Speedway there's a capsule there instead of her.

  • @Desilent49

    what about the ending?

  • @superdude200ify

    All there is to the ending is the credits to the team that made the remake/enhancement.

  • This was propably the best port I've ever seen. The physics feel betterm the framerate is perfect and they did a unbelievably good job on adding Tails to the game. I hope the next Sonic games have the hand of those guys...

  • @GalthanaTroper

    The only thing that saddens about this is that the main programmer behind this "taxman" was considering adding the 2 missing levels, making Sonic CD truly complete. But someone at sonic team said no and to keep the game "close to it's original form". I hope for dlc or something but...meh. Other than that everything is here great.

  • @Desilent49: To clarify...the Sonic CD released in 1993 was a complete game. It was never incomplete to begin with. Desert Dazzle and Final Fever would have been BRAND NEW CONTENT EXCLUSIVE TO THIS DIGITAL RELEASE. Considering that the digital team at Sega is working on Sonic 4 Episode 2 right now, the chances of seeing this content as DLC (if at all) are very slim.

  • @ShadowSpeedRider

    I always felt that way because of the final boss, and that mountain in the opening. But it would still be nice to have though.

  • @Desilent49: Agreed. I want to know how Desert Dazzle would have played. I'm just grateful we have such an awesome Sonic CD port.

  • aaaawww tails looks so cute :3

  • @loquendero6231 I agree he is a cute little bastard. Even with the contrasting art styles, S3&K Tails is a far better secondary character in this game than the gangly derpy version we were forced to play as in the Advance series and unfortunately in Episode 2 I'm sure.

  • can someone show me, or point me to to a vid that shows what tails "Up dash" looks like...

  • @Doober717

    He doesn't have one

  • For those who care about the Sonic Game Canon, with Tails you can put this before Sonic 2.

  • How To unlock tails?

  • @sonicspeed1600

    Beat the game once, doesn't matter what ending you get.

  • nice you got a good future

    with tails and maybe sonic

  • I love the Japanese Soundtrack alot better and feels funkier than the inferior american soundtrack.

  • @UltraDOG17

    Funny that you mention funky, because some of the music is memorizing. Metallic Madness (Bad future *American) sounds like a metallic hell, while the Japanese version is just evil. But not because of the Microsoft Sam lyrics, but the melody itself.

  • @JT7721 I like American's intro better but Japanese's level soundtrack better

  • @Booto20afercan2ninja Are you Deaf?!? The music didn't even match the visuals!!!

  • @marioroxmysox

    The first stage didn't at least (imo), I think Tidal Tempest was a beautiful match with both soundtracks.

  • @Desilent49 What about the intro? did the JAP music match the motives?

  • Does Tails have a different voice when he gets a 1up? (Likes when sonic gets s 1Up, he says 'Yes!')

  • @tails230

    When Tails scores an extra life it makes the same sound effect as when you collect a time stone.

  • @Desilent49 shame, would've been good if they got Kate Higgens to do the extra life line

  • does this take place after sonic's story?

  • @sonimario2000

    Well, Tails is an extra character here. There's no other story, or what ifs, just an extra optional to be played in the game which is never a bad thing.

  • @Desilent49 ohhhhhhhhhhhhh

  • @sonimario2000, @Desilent49 This re-release with the Tails add-on is like the game "Sonic and Tails" (Sonic Chaos in the US). I actually like the idea, because they are trying to make it similar to that game... somehow.

  • @marioroxmysox well i guess your right

  • Can you do the Sonic CD spindash? ( Up and jump button)

  • @HectorLocoful

    I assume you mean the peel out? Tails can't do that.

  • does tails get a hug from amy?? that would be hilarious xD

  • @gridhacker

    nope

  • @Desilent49 good, that'd be an awkward moment xP

  • Tails. Playthourgh. Repuest

  • Geeez

  • I love both soundtracks but I grew up on the American one. I bet I'm the only guy who prefers the American soundtrack XD

  • @sonicman0123456789 i prefer it lol

  • @sonicman0123456789

    I grew up with the US soundtrack and I prefer it too.

  • The soundtrack for this game is just aweosome haha

  • No way! I can't belive this!

  • you have the choice of the US or JP soundtrack?!? and you take the japanese one! Oh you what have you done...

  • Knuckles Chaotix 2012?!!!

  • the blue UFO are supposed to give us 30 other seconds!!! anyway, wow in HD the special stages look pretty good

  • @hellyeahgames Nope, they are not. You might randomly get an 30+ second bonus upon destroying one of them, but that's it.

  • @MilesProwerFR I'm pretty sure they give a bonus every single time. Never once did I destroy one and didn't receive extra time.

  • @Thatquebecdude They do give a bonus everytime, but not always extra time for the stage. They often can give rings (extra score, may lead to an extra life), or speedshoes. So this version has the same features as the original game.

    This can be seen in /watch?v=jcixUYuOJTg for instance.

  • Comment removed

  • @MilesProwerFR Wait a second. Those aren't blue UFOs, but regular ones.

  • how much is this??

    

  • @sShink182

    $5 or 400 microsoft points

  • kinda mad, Knuckles shoulda been unlockable. 

  • Holy new sprites, batman!

  • @SonicGabrial

    Indeed it is - unlocking Tails as a playable character is one of the new special features added to this release, and you get him by beating the game once as Sonic :D

  • @NuLegend1992 Do you need all Time Stones to unlock Tails, or just beating the game as Sonic works?

  • @saturnurameshi

    Just beat the game, doesn't matter what ending you get.

  • @Desilent49 Nice. Thanks! o/

  • Does Tails have a Super Peel-Out type move?

  • @Desilent49 Bummer.

  • @Desilent49 Damn. I was expecting tails to do that with his to tails

  • @Desilent49 Can he use CD spindash?

  • lol 0:30

    

  • Just came here from Sonic & Tails Rise of the Return! :)

  • is this true

  • Does Tails do "I'm outta here"?

  • @JT7721 Oh, that would be hilarious if he could.

  • Comment removed

  • just watched the "rise of the return" sonic & tails fanime, makes me wish they had more anime in the games or a new show!!

  • @DapOrDieNigg yes the rise of the return sonic video is pretty good :)

  • When Tails is in the Past or Future, look at the P or F icon in the left corner. I love it :) One of those little touches I think only a fan would add.

  • anyway to change the music back to regular?

  • @ChargerTheWolf

    regular?

  • @Desilent49 He or she probably means to the US Soundtrack.

  • @Desilent49 That palmtree panic music and the stage finishing music I don't recognize it I am talking about the other Music that it was Originaly when I played this game back on the Sonic Gems Collection on Sonic CD  I guess what I mean by regular is American I think If I am not mistaken

  • @Desilent49 and I didn't recognize the invincible music either

  • @Desilent49 and I don't recognize the special stage music either

  • @ChargerTheWolf

    It's the Original Japanese version of the special stage music. To put it simply, when Sonic CD was brought over seas, all but the Past version of each stage, and the menus had their music changed.

  • @Desilent49 well is there a way to put it to where the American Version of all the music can be played?

  • @ChargerTheWolf

    Right at the main menu there's a sound track option, you can pick either the US or JPN soundtrack there.

  • @Desilent49 thank god at least now whenever I get this downloaded when I get 1600 more microsoft points at least now I know I can do my own let's play of this with Tails with the music that I think Is Better which is the American one but That's just my opinion. I would just rather play it with the music I recognize when I played it for the first time many many years ago. now I am relieved I can choose the music. thanks for the info. I needed that.
