Collecting all 7 of them will let you become Super Sonic when you collect 50 rings, as Sonic 2 started. The special stages are new versions of the ones seen in the first Sonic game, and beating each stage gets you a Chaos Emerald.
The level themes, specific designs, and enemies are all either taken from or inspired by the original Sonic games. This is also the first episode of what is likely to be a longer series of Sonic 4 games, although Episode 1 definitely works as a standalone game - it's as long as Sonic 3 by itself was, with 12 levels spread across 3 zones, a final boss zone and 7 special stages are here for $9.99, cheaper than the console versions but still, you're paying more for the playtime you'll get out of this game than you will for other iOS games.Īnd really, a return to the original Sonic series is what Sonic 4 is. While the game is actually not developed by Sonic Team, it is developed by a studio named Dimps who made the Sonic Advance and Sonic Rush games for the Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS respectively, the focus on making this feel like a classic original series Sonic title is evident. While Sega promised big things with the game, a return to the original gameplay ideals, with many of the original staff working on the game, along with making this game Sonic the Hedgehog FOUR, Sega and Sonic Team were certainly laying their cards on the table with this game. As one of those fans, I met Sonic 4 with initial trepidation. Some fans have become jaded and angry, to say the least.
The less we speak of Shadow the Hedgehog, the better. Well, things haven't been good for the old blue wonder in a while - Sega never quite figured out how to make a game that was as tight as the old Genesis games in 3D, and some truly godawful ideas have come through the pipeline as well. While Sega has never even come close to reaching the pinnacle of the Genesis days, at least Sonic is still around. The games may have been marketed as hyperspeed platformers that left fat old Mario in the dust, but it was the ingenious multi-layered level design, unique playable characters, and of course, the legendary music that made the series what it is just as much as any 'blast processing' marketing mumbo-jumbo may have done.
Sega fans had plenty of reasons to evangelize their system, the main one being Sonic the Hedgehog. Unless your parents were cool enough to have bought you both systems, you fell on either the side of the Genesis or the Super Nintendo.unless your parents hated you and bought you an Atari Jaguar. Growing up in the 16-bit era, the Nintendo-Sega rivalry was a holy war.
