"Boss Theme" from Sonic the Hedgehog (1991)

“Some things were scrapped like sonic having a real life girlfriend and joining a band”
Apparently not scrapped entirely
Just reproposed
ELIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISE
Thank god he didn’t play HAH
Sonic also got his rock band at some point, the product was the TV show (I think) Sonic Underground. All I have is vague memories of sonic with an Electric Guitar and a rock theme with the lyrics "sonic underground" in there somewhere
Skyler s yeah you’re right
"With only six full zones, and three levels each, and one boss fight, Sonic feels a bit light for a 16-bit game."
Probably because the opening "SEGA" took 1/8 of the cart space by itself.
Really?
@@k-leb4671 Voice clip.
It also feels light owing to the difficulty. Odds are you’re going to have to replay it constantly to see the ending
1/4 actually
ugly engie frog "The game's a mess".
What
"Sonic CD is the epitome of a mixed bag: at its best it's the best, at its worst it's the worst."
That's actually a really good way of putting it.
Eloquently putted!
BrownieComicWriter Yeah, sounds about right. I still think the game deserves a 8-9/10, but the last few levels are a pain in the ass.
I thought it was okay, only thing I gotta say is that it was a bit easy
And hey, he learned how to say epitome correctly!
He knows it's "actually" a good way of putting it, that's why he put it that way.
Scott at 1:22 "A real-life human girlfriend, which was scrapped."
Sonic 06: *hold my chili dog*
Yeah... the character was screwed from the 2nd time she got kidnapped, and then there's ROMMTIC SCENES.
Heh, "chili dog".😜
Sonic's rock band got revive for the TV series Sonic Underground
hold my Princess Elise
"As well as joining a band"
Sonic Underground: *Hold my medallion*
Also that croc was then turned into Vector
I would pay $3.67 for Roger Craig Smith to say "I did not... have sexual relations... with that woman" in his Sonic voice
AortaPlatinum I would do Ryan drummend in stead
Why not $3.69?
Loui Javier why not $420.69?
@@damaster4659 I'd pay Jaleel White.
"I did not have sexual relations with that fox"
I still can’t believe his attitude was inspired by Bill Clinton. “I did not have sexual relations with that Hedgehog”
Well then. Do you need medical attention?
Awww yes.... The Clinton crime family.... Those sneaky basterds.
Would Amy be Hillary? "Isn't it about time we had a female hedgehog?"
No
@@Nooo893 yes
“I could never get past marble zone” I THOUGHT I WAS ALONE
Mind your own goddamn business, G E N E. Losers
Mind your own goddamn business, G E N E. Yeah, I couldn’t for years. I remember never getting anywhere when I was like 5, often I couldn’t even make it passed a Green Hill. However since being 12 I’ve been very good at Sonic 1 and I’ve even beaten it twice both in 50hz mode and 60hz mode.
Yeah, I still have trouble with marble zone. So at least you were able to get past it ^^
I played sonic 1 in generations with unlimited continues i never NEVER made it past marble zone act 2 let alone get a chaos emerald
same
Sonic 06 is the best game ever. Why? No water levels. And it makes sure of this. Why? Oh... because water kills you and you sink through the ground into an open void.
But doesnt Shadow have a boat mission?????
yeah, but what about that glitchy orca level?
SamB64 ..........HAHAHAHAHA

Hearing Scott say it in such a plain, matter-of-fact way fucking killed me lmao

@@111boy9 agreed
Watching older Scott the Woz videos and seeing Dick Vitale's "Awesome Baby" College Hoops always in his Genesis is like the ultimate foreshadowing of something no one could have dreamed up.
It's in literally every single video where the Genesis is seen on the desk. Gotta wonder if Scott just did it as an easter egg or he always planned on doing the Awesome Baby special...
It's just sitting there, MENACINGLY.
AWESOME BABY

That was a really cool cameo, I love when great RUclipsrs show up on other channels.
How is everyone ignoring that this is the episode where Scott learned how to pronounce "epitome"? Truly a historic moment in Scott the Woz history!
?
@xandersoukal In all previous episodes he pronounced it wrong
Thought this would be a Sonic Mania comparison but I like the focus on the original. Clever and funny way to include your bias on the game too, love the thunder clouds
why would it be a Sonic Mania comparison
The Robotnik/Roosevelt bit just made me realize: Robin Williams would have been a great Eggman. :(
'Mr. Needlemouse' sounds like it came straight from the brain of Mr. Vince Mcmahon in 1991
Jamie Stimpson What would happen later? He would become Needle "The Mouse" Rockson?
It does, oh dear!
Not to mention, Mr Needlemouse was not the original name for Sonic, it was Mr Hedgehog. Mr Needlemouse was a mistranslation we had took as fact.
11:51 2019 creepy movie Sonic says hello.
They redesigned him and delayed the film
"Eloquently putted!"
He said “eloquently put it”.
I actually liked Marble Zone, but mainly because of the atmosphere & music.
Same
Same bruh
I hated it for the cheap shots with the springs, but the music is nice
@Memescular they are. And they suck. The whole level sucks. I hate marble zone with a passion
@Memescular there are tho.
I think more people respect Sonic 1 rather than love it, I like the game but looking back I can agree with you and what KingK said about the game that Green Hill Zone is the reason these games caught on and where it found its identity for the original Megadrive/Genesis run. It was simply the blue print and what came afterwards really put the series on the map, shame most of the 3D games are still trying to find their way but I still like this series and will support it for better or worst.
PrinceBalor I agree!
The SNES Man that’s what sonic was though, 3D sonic games are what set the tone for sonic games to just be about speed. In his 2D era he was meant to rival Mario so even though speed was his gimmick and part of his identity that’s not all there was to sonic originally. Yeah there was speed but there was also platforming
@Kits ?! other way round.tons of people play it but its relatively hated in the gaming community
"High Definition Graphics, yeah, you just keep telling yourself that" - Scott The Woz
"Hey all, Scott here"
*Boom* and straight into content. Its so refreshing not having to skip the first 100 seconds of nearly every channels "before we get into what you clicked to see, remember to smash that like button, hit that red subscribe button, and make sure to ring that little bell to stay up to date on all our content, and now a word from our sponser in order to turn this 3-5 mins of content, into a full 11 mins of algorithmic monetization"
Yeah, I always love how Scott just kinda does his own thing.
Scott even parodied that
since the "music used" section in the description only has the first song, here's the full list:
(all are from Sonic 1 except the outro)
"Boss Theme"
"Green Hill Zone"
"Spring Yard Zone"
"Star Light Zone"
"Marble Zone"
"Final Zone"
"Special Stage" (if you count the gameplay footage)
"Scrap Brain Zone"
"Staff Roll"
"Breakout" from 3D Dot Game Heroes
You're a lifesaver!
@@ScottElWoz de nada, señor El Woz
God he’s speaking so fast now, he really slowed down and made his voice more bouncy over time
2:42 Man it’s surreal to hear Scott acknowledge Spinball’s existence
0:00 don’t mind me, this is just a replay button
Am I the only one who finds old Scott videos very nostalgic to watch again in 2018
I know I'm odd
No matter the time, I always love watching Scott's older videos!

Came from relax alex, and honestly so glad i did. I can see your channel being up there with PBG and Jontron man, keep up the good work you earned a new sub :)
Pear the Stone maybe not JonTron but peebs I can see
Jontron is a racist bitch fuck him.

Jesus, that paper transition was really nice.
Sonic Mega Collection was a good 73% of my childhood
I knew somebody who knew codes for Sonic 1 and 2, so I was able to see all levels without truly beating every level as a kid (I didn't honestly beat either game until I played them on the Sonic Mega Collection Plus, which has a save feature).
Scott’s thoughts on Sonic games:
Sonic1: NOSTALGIA
Sonic 2: It’s good
Sonic CD: Eh
Sonic 3: It feels incomplete
Sonic&Knuckles: It feels incomplete
Sonic3&Knuckles: I like this one
Sonic Adventure 1: Didn’t like the first 5 minutes
Sonic Adventure 2: Never played it
Sonic Heroes: Never played it
Sonic 06: “HA!”😂
Sonic Unleashed: It’s alright
Sonic Colors: too much 2D
Sonic Generations: I like this one
Sonic Lost World: Never played it
Sonic Boom: “HA!”😂
Sonic Mania: I like this one
Sonic Forces: ……
More or less yea
Coming back from modern scot, he sounds more energetic today than before. Neat ig
honestly he sounds a bit… too energetic in his more recent videos
it just feels like too much sometimes
I feel better knowing that I'm not the only one who was stuck on marble zone
1:26 The Japanese version looks more like how Sonic looks now.
AW YEAH THIS IS HAPPENING.
2:02 D I C K V I T A L E
AWESOME BABY!
IT'S AWESOME BABY!
god, that toilet throw gag gets me every time
1:24 This is probably really common knowledge, but I just noticed *Vector* in there. In like 1991 or even earlier.
What the actual fuck? I never knew they re-used an old piece of concept art for his design!
Mark Koetsier Well, Vector was in a game on the Genesis. He was made early in the series
No it’s a game called vectorman
But the chaotix first appeared on the 32x add on to the genesis
Hmm not vector
No bling
Oh no.......
Sonic the hedgehog in “Its awesome baby” AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
1:15 "His original name was needlemouse"
'shutupjoseph': "right that down, right that down!"
Mobile game ads be like: 4:12
“I HAVEN’T PLAYED”
*_”HAAAAH”_*
2:41 did Scott just acknowledge Spinball? I thought he established that game doesn’t exist.
Huh? What is sonic spinball?? Never heard of it.
Not at all!
It doesn't exist in the timeline he enters at the end of It's Awesome Baby
He’s not saying it exists, he’s only acknowledging the concept of it
3:05: *_THANK YOU!!_*
7:26 “And man, I hate the underwater sections in Sonic 1!”
Every 60 seconds, a minute passes in Africa.
Scott: "Green Hill Zone... is literally the perfect Sonic level."
City Escape: "Allow me to introduce myself."
Ummm...... if we are talking opening stages then City Escape is the best but lets not forget stages like Ocean Palace and Speed Highway exists
My nemesis is Labyrinth Zone Act 3, 90% of the time I can't keep up with Robotnic and just end up drowning.
Me too.
I only like Green Hills Zone. That’s it. And I’ve never beaten a Sonic game. I’ve played a lot of them. Lol. But I’ve never played through to the end. It’s like I lost interest after I would die a couple of times.
I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE
You need to play Sonic Adventure 2! It's honestly one of the best games in the franchise.
He missed out big time.
Yes! and Adventure 1
@Maxus Devasteitor Try saying that After playing Sonic Adventure 2
@Maxus Devasteitor Well that's your opinion and I respect it.
He should give Unleashed another chance too, my 2nd favorite Sonic game.
Sold. I keep watching your videos and the way you intro into the video and the way you intro out are so fun and make me laugh every time. You have such a cheer in the way you talk it's so refreshing.
I personally like that the 1st sonic game focuses primarily on platforming. And I don't know why, but I do not find it to be difficult. I can basically speed run it. I think it's pretty great.
I loved how you handled this game! Great review!
TGC brought me back to this video again! Why didn't you want Josh to bring you into this!?!!?!
I'm going through all the 16-bit Sonic games now, just completed Sonic 1 + 2. That series had some of the greatest 16-bit platforming in history. Can't wait to play through 3 again.
I have recently come across your videos, they're amazing and of great quality! And funny as heck too.
You've earned a new sub.
3:21 sonic generations is my favorite game of all time so it’s nice to know it isn’t just me who loves this game not because of nostalgia but because of gameplay
10:51
Very clever syncing the phrase "blown out of the water" with a clip of Sonic doing that.
“A real life human girlfriend for Sonic”
*Sonic 06 flashbacks*
“I don’t think anybody likes this level”
Marble Zone defense force where are you?
Here
I like the atmosphere but the level is fine. Definitely better than any level in the first 3 Mario games if I’m being honest
That title doesn't hold up anymore nowadays, Scotty boy
Well yea mostly ngl
This is one of these rare videos on RUclips where I agree with absolutely everything. Nailed it!
You definitely need way more subs. I'm really impressed so far.
Remarkable.
-Moon
I love how he still does not take out Awesome Collage Hoops
tbh I’d actually like to see Cybershell make a response video, I want to damn see how many swear words he can sonic jam for the sega saturn into a sentence talking negatively about Scott’s perspective on the sonic mega drive/genesis/I refuse to know anymore games.
Eloquently putted, Scott.
Thanks for acknowledging the much requested Sonic 3 & Knuckles mobile port.
The bias gag might be my favourite Scott joke
Since Scott isn't making a video today I'm just binging all his Sonic videos!
P.S get well soon Scott :D
Loved this vid, Scott! About to watch gameplay of Sonic Generations.
ah yes the game about going fast that rewards you with going fast then punishes you for going fast
I actually liked Marble Zone. Thought it was atmospheric and pretty even though there is no chance to go fast. Sonic 2 and 3 are the masterpieces though.
Mania, Adventure 1, Adventure 2, Generations are also Masterpieces
Why don’t you have more subs your content is so good
These videos are so fast paced that it's insane that they're of decent length
I've been binging your videos
your personality makes me happy
2:41 There's another time Sonic Spinball existed!
Wait, what's Sonic Spinball? Oh yeah! It's that one game I unfortunately played as a kid!
I don't care what anyone says, seeing the Sonic movie on the big screen was the best part of 2020.
@Marc Carran that’s subjective, I think the movie did a great job of portraying dr robotnik as a real guy
"I know sex with me has decreased in value after that little tidbit."
LOL
2:56 - I haven't played Adventure 2, I haven't played Heroes, I haven't played- *HA*
3:33 - I haven't played Lost World, or- *HA*
To hell with every Sonic after SA2.
Zylo Wolf Sonic Colours, Generations and Mania: *Am I a joke to you?*
@@zylowolf7919
Hey man, Generations and Mania are amazing!
There are plenty of good Sonic games after SA2. I know Heroes soured a lot of people since it was a step back from SA2, but Heroes, Rush, Advance 3, Rush Adventure, Unleashed, Black Knight, Colors, Generations, and Mania are all good and that isn’t including spinoffs like the racing games.
4:46 "sonic controls well" (shows footage of marble zone)
*Labyrinth.
Just gonna say, if you want a save feature in this game, the Sonic Classic Collection on the DS has a save system for this game as well as Sonic 2 and Sonic and Knuckles.
30+ episodes in, Scott finally learns how to say "epitome"
Very nice foreboding AWESOME BABY! cameo at 2:03, it's as if he knew he'd reach episode 100 so early on
2:57 I haven’t played HA!
Sadly that is my favorite sonic game
What about that one scene that Elise kiss sonic
It was one scene that I don’t like
4:21 and a video was born
The throw gag is one of the best on the entire channel
Lol Scott would have hated how sonic 1 was going to be if Sega kept the more darker realistic stages
oh yeah night hill zone with layered backgrounds
My mom and dad’s anniversary is June 22 1991 the day before sonic was made
did they play it on their honeymoon
Out of all the 2D Sonic games (main series), this is the one I like the least. It's still a fine game, but I don't understand why people continuously praise this game when they only really like half of the zones, while Sonic Adventure is bashed for the same "only half the game is good" reason. I love Green Hill, Marble Zone is boring and tedious, Spring Yard is a fun romp, Labyrinth is horrendous, Star Light is also fun, and Scrap Brain actually isn't that hard, except for Act 3, which needs to lie down.
I like 4/6 I hate marble and labrinth. Spring yard was good but not great. Scrap brain and starlight i thought was great. And green hill is of course the Best
I just beat this game for the first time two days ago. It was so weird feeling like I was being punished for going fast on a Sonic game. Completely agree on your thoughts on the zones.
I love this kid 😂 !! Keep it up Scott. Much love
You should try playing Sonic 1 via Sonic Jam on Sega Saturn.
The games were not emulated on the Saturn they were made from the ground up for the Saturn and they look and running beautifully. The reason I say this though is Sonic 1 added the spin dash from later entries in the Sonic Jam version
1:37 never realized this until now, is that a prototype build?
ye
Yes, I noticed the palette.
There are much more rings in the speed section than in the final game, many of them were replaced with a checkpoint.
With 50 rings it got a 1 up so yeah
Sonic 2 is the best Genesis Sonic game
This whole time while you were talking from 2:02 till 2:44 I was only paying attention at the games in your gaming shelf in the background.
