    I'd honestly never known what the rest of the game looked like until I saw your review, because I could never get past Labyrinth Zone. Well it took me almost 25 years to do it, but I finally beat Labyrinth and the rest of the game tonight. Man was it satisfying to get that end screen, all emeralds or no emeralds.

    Why do people compare these reviews with AVGN's?
    AVGN is a show, not intended as a full review/walkthrough, for entertainment only. Aqualung is an actual reviewer.

      Some people seem to think ANYONE who does youtube videogame reviews is automatically an AVGN ripoff.

    ever notice that the purple parts of the brain scrap zone background look like nether portals from minecraft?

    I don't understand why some people think Sonic is better than Mario or Mario is better than Sonic. To me, I think they’re both great franchises! Mario and Sonic shouldn't be competing to see who's better. They should be joining forces and starring in great games made by both Nintendo and Sega!

    Although I know Sonic's more recent games have been given bad reviews, those reviews will not stop me from being the fan of him that I am right now. I've been a die-hard fan of him since the summer of 2001 (after playing a couple of his games that my cousin lent to me when he lent me his Genesis so I could play Wheel of Fortune on it), and I plan on keeping it that way until the end and after.

    Great review and walkthrough, Aqualung! I was kinda hoping that you would divide the walkthrough up into three videos, although I wasn't aware that you pull a single video in a little over 25 minutes.

  • @KurtKokaine1
    @KurtKokaine1 13 лет назад +1

    Now this is my SHIT!! I was a Genesis fanboy back in the 90's, and man I spent countless years of my youth playing the life out of this game. I never found the sequels to match up to the charm this game had. One minor note though, you forgot to mention you can speed up or slow down the turning of the mazes in the Special Zones by coming into contact with either the Up or Down bumpers. You obviously want to avoid the Up bumpers so you can navigate the mazes more efficiently. ; ) - helluva review!

    awesome review of one of my most favorite games of all time, bravo aqualung! Would you ever be interested in doing a review/walkthrough of metroid for the nes? I always use to get so lost playing that game.

  • @PlusmaGun
    @PlusmaGun 13 лет назад

    I have to give Sonic credit for going through six zones, all of them containing death traps that he has to avoid and robots that he must crush.
    And Sonic does that by using his ENTIRE body?!? That makes Mario's headsmashing seem comfortable!

  • @cammy85

    I always thought that whenever Sonic swallowed an air bubble that he was saying "blow bubbles!" each time.

    Oh my god, I remember I always used to play this game with my sister. But we had to stop playing when our controller broke. It was 2008 so they were really hard to find and very expensive.

  • @Amisbro
    @Amisbro 11 лет назад

    I forget if it was in this game or all the ones before 3D blast but I think if I remember one thing that happened was if you scored 100K points you got a continue (you also earned one in the special stages for 50 rings if I'm not mistaken)

  • @timsalmons1982
    @timsalmons1982 13 лет назад

    Another great review Ken. The audio is out of sync in spots. Not a big deal, but I thought I'd point it out. The speed and the multilayered soundtrack of the game makes it a little more difficult to keep it in sync, I'm sure.

    Some versions of the game give you recovery on spikes. If I recall... if you have Sonic Mega Collection, Sonic 1 on there allows recovery on the spikes.
    However... being a Genesis game, I honestly don't know if all versions have the Spike bug fixed, so I can't really say much. Maybe it was fixed before being ported over from the Genesis?

    @AqualungGameReviews
    Maybe in a future Sonic game review (like Sonic 3, maybe; if I remember right, the game drops down signposts after you beat bosses, and transitions you in a different way into the next zone), you can sneak such a reference in, and hope nobody happens to see this, heh.
    Anyway. Don't mind me trying to see a reference that may not actually be there. XD
    And as always, an entertaining review, sir.

  • @gamegod9000
    @gamegod9000 13 лет назад

    You should have mentioned how at the end of Labyrinth Zone Act 3 when the 3 corks rise up from the water, if you walk back to the checkpoint and sit there, the water will come back down if you fall off.

    @Bjorick 11 лет назад

    and an awesome one at that, i've found a few games i've missed from my childhood that i've played through and enjoyed because of aqua, and learned to stay away from some, like swamp thing.
    I still think people give too much hate to friday the 13th though, it's actually a fun, relaxing game. :P

  • @gamegod9000
    @gamegod9000 13 лет назад

    I just want to tell you a trick: In Labyrinth Zone Act 3, you forgot to mention that if the three floating corks at the end float away, you can just walk to the very left to make the water sink back down. T_T

    I'm always surprised by the fact that the European/PAL version runs slower. The music always sounds weird to me because it sounds faster. =)

  • @sayastra
    @sayastra 13 лет назад

    2 issues- the spike thing is actually a programming glitch
    -the speed, in this game was actually slowed down because in test periods it gave people a slight case of nausea (and that's why people think of sonic as being a bad ass- he'll make you puke)

  • @therealhardrock
    @therealhardrock 13 лет назад

    In all honesty, Super Mario World > Sonic the Hedgehog because it has a map screen stage select, alternate paths, and a save function, making more like modern games. BRING IT ON, FLAMERS! I hope that you, aqualung, can respond to this comment with a calmer temperament like a decent person unlike the many Sonic fanboys who will likely thumbs down this comment to death and reply with angry rants and raves.

    Damn you Aqualung! Between watching AVGN, IrateGamer and your video's.....I keep finding myself going to eBay to buy back my childhood! How are you doing these walkthru's? I can only play casually if its via emulator or virtual console. If I am going to sit down and beat one of these classic games, I can only do it seriously with the original hardware. Not even a RetroN will do! Keep up the good work, and love the digs at IG!

    @FrothingManiac 13 лет назад

    Ehh, it's not necessarily a bad game, but the Marble Zone, platforming sections of the Spring Yard Zone, underwater sections and the palette-swapped final zone bring the game down somewhat for me. The sequels were much better.

    I never understood why Sonic collects rings? Seems like a really stupid health system.

    • @Suyamu
      @Suyamu 10 лет назад +6

      best health system in video game history. You can manage to collect your lost rings and stay alive. Fun and innovative.

    • @Suyamu
      @Suyamu 10 лет назад +3

      Rob Harrison so you're ok with a humanoid hedgehog freeing non-humanoid animals in trippy worlds full of robot enemies etc... but those rings make it unrealistic for you? ;)
      Just accept the game and game mechanics for what they are - both are great.

    • @Suyamu
      @Suyamu 10 лет назад +1

      Rob Harrison
      Mario has coins, and I don't know about newer games, but in the original game he never used the coins to go shopping either. They were primarily a means to raise the hiscore.

    • @Peter_1986
      @Peter_1986 9 лет назад +1

      Games don't need to be realistic and logical in everything.
      The rings are just a random health system that the player can collect in order to stay alive.
