Ok, let's make a race against sonic. You go in a car, and he goes running. Ready... Set... G- And he already beat you 3 times in a row before your engine starts. Now you get it?
I think the hate came from the fact that it doesn’t exactly fit into a sonic game. I personally like the soundtrack, but it just doesn’t exactly fit. -also yes I realize this comment is nearly a year old-
Alexander Potec Yeah, that's the basis of most of the hate for the soundtrack. It's not bad, it's just ridiculously out of place. That kinda music just doesn't belong in a racing game.... I still rock to it, though. :)
austin 01 THERE'S A HUNDRED AND FOUR DAYS IN SYMMER VACATION AND SCHOOL COMES ALOMG JUST TO END IT SO THE ANUUAL PROBLEM FOR OUR GENERATION IS FINDING A GOOD WAY TO SPEND IT (Continue? 5 4 3 2 1 Game over.)
The only problem about Riders is the controls aren't explained well. Zero Gravity has a tutorial for the PS2 version only. So pretty much not everyone who played the game only once or twice will able to get a grasp on how fun the game is unless they spend more time in the game.
the explanations were horrible, i dont think they even had a in-depth control explanation in the game's manual either, it took me forever to learn how to make a tornado/trap.
Sonic R was actually made by Traveler's Tales (the same company behind today's Lego games). It is graphically impressive, pushing the Saturn to it's limits.
Fun fact, Sonic and all stars racing transformed had the idea of boat, plane, and car before Mario Kart 7; Nintendo just advertised it and produced it first. on Twitter, they tweeted that they face palmed once they heard about nintendo's Idea.
Confirmed.Peter doesn't know how to play Sonic Riders properly.He doesn't know that holding the jump button and letting go when on the ramp will get him height.Probably doesn't even have Super Sonic
I like the Sonic Rush music at the end. It gets drilled into your brain when you constantly fail the final bonus stage by one ring, knowing you were one ring from the true ending.
lol I used to play sonic R all the time when I was like 10 and I adored it! especially the music. I was a pro and could get all the little medal things, the chaos emeralds and get first place on the first try lmfao
Hey, speaking of Tails the sniper, there are actually a few good pics of that. Also, I made a sniper character in Wasteland 2 and named him Miles. Maxed out his intelligence to give him tons of support skills, including weapon modding, which really came in handy for sniper rifles. He fuckin wrecked enemies from long range...
You know, it's kind of funny that your mic glitching is hard to tell apart from your normal editing. The one, true flawless entertainment style is the one where even your technical glitches can be taken as intentional comedic choices.
2:18 Actually, it was Marble Zone. All the courses in the game are zones from Sonic 1, but without the word "zone" at the end. But it would've been better if they replaced it with a different word, like "circuit".
I feel like Sonic Riders wasn't really represented well in this game. 1) The game has a boost feature, you sacrifice some air to do a little boost that makes you go faster for a short amount of time and when you get close to an enemy you can attack them. 2) In a race, you can collect rings to level up your board which increases your maximum air tank capacity, speed, and other stuff. First level up is at 30, then 60 (I think) 3) In the game each character has a class type. Speed, Fly, and power. These class types allow you to access certain shortcuts on the stage that people without the class type can't get to and certain boards can give characters more than their class type. Ex) Sonic is a speed type but you can give him a board that can give him power class type so he has both speed and power and can access all shortcuts for either class type 4) Learning how to do good jumps in the game is hard at first but once you get the hang of it, it's not that hard to keep your air up, and God you jump high/far enough you can get to a shortcut. 5) There are items boxes on each stage and the items either help you or hurt, and don't effect other players. The possibilities you can get are rings, air, invincibility which makes you invincible and increases speed, and a weight which slows you down. 6) There are 3 types of vehicles you choose from. Board, Bike, or skates. I'm not sure on the differences between then like if bikes make better turns and skates have better acceleration. But anyhow, you can unlock these vehicles by buying them from a shop with rings you collected from races. More vehicles become available as you progress through story mode. 7)Story mode is meh, just play it to unlock stages and vehicles 8) There are multiplayer modes, I love playing the arena but I only played with AI so I never had a challenge. The Co Op racing game is a cool concept, but AI sucks as partners. 9) There are missions in the game that really make you utilize some game mechanics. I don't remember if there are any really annoying ones. I just know that getting gold on all of them are hard. And you unlock super sonic if you do it. 10) Super sonic is an interesting character. You start the race with x amount of rings and as each second passes you lose a ring. Your rings are actually your air tank for him because they don't give him an air tank. My only complaint is he uses a board instead of flying. 11) There are 2 secret stages I forgot how you unlock but they are a blast to play. 12) The sound track for this game is amazing. Cutscenes suck but they're so bad that they are great to watch for comedy 13) Sonic Zero G and Free Riders mechanics sucks but Zero G has fun stages 9/10 Sonic and Super Sonic don't need a vehicle
I remember having this game for my ps2 where it was just a game with a whole bunch of other sonic games on it and it had sonic drift on it and I loved it
Tbh i loved pplaying Sonic Riders. My family used to cheer me on whenever i was close to first place Still pretty fun now that i revisit it from time to time
this is actually true, and is why speedrunners when playing this game often love it and why casuals often complain about its "high skill curve" when trying to play it and review it over a week and completley dont understand and suck at it
"I may not like it as much as Mario Kart, but I may like it just as much". Reminds me on what I feel about comparing each Pac Man World game to another.
I grew up with Sonic and Sega All Stars Racing instead of Mario Kart Wii. I didn't know who any of the characters were at the time but that game was my childhood. It was also technically my first Sonic game.
As the new offering for their 32-bit console, Sonic R is the biggest pile of shit in the franchise. It was a joke. SO fucking bad. It's no wonder at all that Sega dropped off so hard. Compared to what N64 and PS1 had, Sonic R was like Sega sharting right in the face of anyone who bought a Saturn hoping to see the next great Sonic game, the next Big Sega attack in the console wars. Pathetic. It's such a terrible, awful game.
Retro Gamer Because it was the first major disappointment in the franchise. The Saturn was Sega's opportunity to compete on the market again, after the debacle that the Sega CD and 32X created. A good Sonic game could have been a major win for the Saturn, and created a larger market for the Dreamcast. They dropped the ball so hard that Sega and Sonic never recovered. I look at Sonic R as the moment that Sonic Team and Sega stopped becoming AAA, top tier competitors, and became shovelware pushing hacks. Sonic '06 and Rise of Lyric are two of many piles of shit that prove it. Sonic killed Sega.
leadbones Sonic R wasn't going to be anything more than a fun little racing game. They had more faith in Sonic Adventure since that game was going to be Sonic's first true jump to 3d but since the Dreamcast was about to launch and was stronger than the Saturn, Sega decided to take advantage of the updated hardware and push the game's development on the Dreamcast. Also I doubt Sonic R would stop a company from making triple A games I mean while Sonic is their mascot Sega have other gaming IPs like Nights, Yakuza, Hatsune Miku, etc.
You talk about their excuses and mistakes like they aren't well known, or that they change the facts. Yes, they chose to ignore the Saturn. Yes, they decided to make a mascot racer for fun. The point is that they chose to ignore the Saturn, shitting on their fans for buying yet another piece of Sega hardware. And the mascot racer they ended up with is shit. It's not just that Sonic R isn't a good classic Sonic platformer, it flat out isn't a good game. Defending Sonic R and the Saturn as not real, true efforts from Sega proves my point precisely.
leadbones The Saturn was a failing system just like the Sega CD and Sega 32X even if they made a try and true 3d Classic Sonic platfomer for the system it would of been forgotten like Knuckles Chatiox and SegaSonic the Hedgehog. I'm not saying what they did wasn't dickest but it was already dickest how they release the Saturn without telling anybody until after it was on store shelves and SoJ only had 2 decision support the Saturn and wine up like the Wii U or drop the console all together and focus attention on the Dreamcast.
Hmmm, Let's see Nintendo Super Mario 3D Land The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time Metroid Samus Returns Sega Sonic Heroes Sonic 06 Sonic Boom I think we can clearly see the winner of this match.
The Dreamcast and N64 were similar in that they didn't have a lot of great games, but those they had were some of the best of their respective generations.
I hate long videos because the content is rarely quality throughout. EXCEPT YOURS. This is hilarious xD. I've played every single one of these and you literally echoed the experiences while being informative and hilarious. I hope you can keep making videos, because you're very good at it. ^_^
"You put sonic in a car, I think we all know sonic wouldn't race when he cant run."
Why would anyone agree to race against him if he could run?
maybe because the race won't be fair
well you know why
Sonic when he boosting ( I think you understand me )

Interesting fact about Sonic Riders: The intro was made by the same people who worked on Attack on Titan.
really?
Meowmeow0 yep
Also wasn't the sonic x Japanese scene composed by the same guy that composed the dragon ball z theme?
msamyrose100 idk
Not X, but cutscenes in CD.
Sonic CD and Dragon Ball Z are by Toei, while Sonic X was handled by TMS.
You forgot that Silver was in Zero Gravity.
He also wasn't in Riders because it came out before 06.
I know that silver couldn't fix that mess
And before Rivals too
The Sonic R soundtrack is a lot of fun for me. I don't get all the hate for it
I think the hate came from the fact that it doesn’t exactly fit into a sonic game.

The only problem about Riders is the controls aren't explained well. Zero Gravity has a tutorial for the PS2 version only. So pretty much not everyone who played the game only once or twice will able to get a grasp on how fun the game is unless they spend more time in the game.
:')
Actually, the Wii version of Zero Gravity also had a tutorial.

Bill Grum yeah I remember it, it really helped me learn to play it on the wii
Sonic Riders is a game where if you know what you're doing it's lots of fun... and if you don't it's frustrating as hell!

Wasn't there a racer titled "TF2" in Allstars? I'm pretty sure it had Each class type with Pyro as offense, Heavy from Defense, and Spy as support.
Yeah all the TF2 characters will DLC for the Steam version of All stars racing transformed.
AUH NOAH - Shpee
Sonic R was actually made by Traveler's Tales (the same company behind today's Lego games). It is graphically impressive, pushing the Saturn to it's limits.
"Unlike Sonic, I don't chuckle"

Oh, so you don't chuckle. I beg to differ.

Getting Super Sonic took SO long, but it was worth it to have something so OP, they nerfed him HARD CORE in Zero Gravity.
"Son of a Glitch?" A+Start would like to have a word with you.
Well, the original zone WAS actually just called Marble zone. :/
I like cake too Peter.

Sonic Riders was my first Sonic game. No matter how much people tell me it's awful, my nostalgia for it will cloud my vision.
You know, it's kind of funny that your mic glitching is hard to tell apart from your normal editing. The one, true flawless entertainment style is the one where even your technical glitches can be taken as intentional comedic choices.
I actually loved Sonic Riders as a kid and I'm pretty sure I'd still love it today
If Sonic R, Drift, etc. is a rip off of MARIO KART then MARIO KART MUST BE A RIP-OFF OF THE TACING GAMES THAT CAME BEFORE! :P
fuck!!!!!!!!! sonic racing games aren't a ripoff of mario!!!!!! THEY ARE A GIANT SANDWICH MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then that must mean... THE GAME THAT GOT RIPPED OFF BY MARIO KART RIPPED OFF THE RACING THAT WAS BEFORE THAT ONE!
I ATE A GIANT SANDWICH, I EVEN ATE A STEAAAAK!
I'M A GIANT SANDWICH MAN, AND I EVEN ATE A CAAAKE!
Everything is a ripoff of everything that was before it.
Crash Team Racing had a drift boost and it's used in every arcade kart racer since

Tbh one of my favourite things in sonic games is when you drift around corners so this game looks fun to me
.....I like the Sonic R music and SASRT was the bomb
I always change the season to Winter in the options menu while playing Sonic R, since you can run on water.

5) There are items boxes on each stage and the items either help you or hurt, and don't effect other players. The possibilities you can get are rings, air, invincibility which makes you invincible and increases speed, and a weight which slows you down.
6) There are 3 types of vehicles you choose from. Board, Bike, or skates. I'm not sure on the differences between then like if bikes make better turns and skates have better acceleration. But anyhow, you can unlock these vehicles by buying them from a shop with rings you collected from races. More vehicles become available as you progress through story mode.
7)Story mode is meh, just play it to unlock stages and vehicles
8) There are multiplayer modes, I love playing the arena but I only played with AI so I never had a challenge. The Co Op racing game is a cool concept, but AI sucks as partners.

1:18 And that's why Sonic Drift sux
I love how he knows the words to all the songs in Sonic R
why is everyone that complains about sonic riders super shit at it?
Because if they were actually good at the game they wouldn't have anything bad to say about it.
this is actually true, and is why speedrunners when playing this game often love it and why casuals often complain about its "high skill curve" when trying to play it and review it over a week and completley dont understand and suck at it

In the wii version of sonic riders you can play as silver IF you beat the game
Surprised you didn't mention how you could play as Wreck-it-Ralph in Sonic All-Stars Racing Transformed because that was a thing that happened.
I have a question, CAN YOU FEEL THE SUNSHINE DOES IT BRIGHTEN UP YOUR DAY
"Son of a glitch" is my new favourite thing.
Sonic and All Stars Racing Transformed is seriously the Sonic game I have enjoyed the most out of every one I've played
A new challenger approaches...
Team Sonic Racing has joined the battle.
No one has ever made me as conflicted about liking a video as this.
