Enough live service games have lost enough money, including Sega’s Hyenas, that at least one company is now scared enough to stop making them. Video games are healing.

    I’m still stuck on Sonic Adventure 2: Battle as my all time favorite Sonic game. It was peak 3D Sonic. You’re right about the speed tho, which brings us to Haste. Play it, and you’ll see how it should have been done and how Sega is completely washed because they couldn’t do this.

      I tried the demo when it came out. Great game, but I got turned off by the level design. There were lot of times when I got lost and didn’t know what to do or where to go. And not in a good way, like on Journey, Abzû or Sword of the Sea, you can get lost and get rewarded for exploring but getting back on track is intuitive.

      Haste has better physics though.

        Have you tried the BetterSADX mod on PC? It’s freakin’ incredible! Makes SA1 even better. Hell, I tried SA2 with mods and I still bounced off it.

        Its my bias. I played them both but grew up with 2. I’ll admit it tho. They’re both great imo.
