Sonic VS Barrel

Sonic encounters the infamous Barrel of Sonic 3 (and Knuckles), and with Tails' assistance, attempts to get past Robotnik's worst, trap, ever.

I got the idea for this from tales of people getting stuck here, and my childhood experience of ONLY using debug mode.

taht would be cool if they all talk on this game

[RupeeClock]

@hblackwell100 I think you've somewhat missed the point of the video then.

@RupeeClock I think you miss the point of why it's important to have dialogue in the original games so as to understand the story better. However if you ever want to go through the barrel thing, all you have to do is go up and down on the control pad. See the Carnival Night Zone Short from "Sonic Shorts Volume 6."

[RupeeClock]

@marioroxmysox That's up to the story teller.

The use of implicit story telling, rather than explicit dialogue leaves the story more open to interpretation and imagination, leaving the story reader to fill in the blanks.

In a simple story situation like Mario and Sonic games, when the player is left to invent their own meaning it becomes a more immersive experience.

@RupeeClock It's absolutely possible. It just... takes an absurd amount of time in many cases to figure out.

Like a couple years in some cases.

Silly Sonic!!!You push up and F#CKING DOWN!!!!!!!

[1331adm]

Press UP AND DOWN UP AND DOWN UP AND DOWN UP AND DOWN UP AND DOWN UP AND DOWN ... of course back in 1994 not may people would of considered thinking that was all you had to do

[thehandydman]

this made me cry.... as a kid, of course

[KlonoaCute]

Haha I remember this.. I was like 6, my brother helped me to get through that stinking barrel. He took control of Tails and jumped on the barrel then told me to spindash under the barrel when the time was just right lol I need to tell him this, hes going to freak XD

[GallantChaddymon]

@heviarey Remember RadicalHighway? Those spining cylinders? Everyone I know couldn't figure out how to get past them until they spoke to Omochao.XD

[heviarey]

@GallantChaddymon soo homochao its like a guardian angel or something? well... i missed the point anywhere :P

[RagnarokiaNG]

@dsdface It is odd, I am usually the type to miss something but this one sort of just came out as strait forward.

[dsdface]

@RagnarokiaNG the thing is that nobody knew that you needed to press up and down

[GallantChaddymon]

the barrel is EVIL! And it comes back in SonicAdventure2!!! Except Omochao tells u that u only need to summersault to get past them.
