Yeah, and that screen crunching causes some rather large salt-and-pepper glitches in the video.

Honestly, I'm hoping there's a better collection for the DS2 or PSP2.

Sounds like it sucks! I'll have to give it a try myself then.

In absolute terms, yes, it does suck.

But for me, hell I just want some portable 1P Classic Sonic (specifically S3&K), so I'm satisfied. And again, the lag occurs when there are numerous items on screen. Zones like Marble (1), Chemical Plant (2), and Hill Top (2) will be a-okay, whereas the heavier parts of Star Light (1), Casino Night (2), and Death Egg (K) will see their share of lag.

BTW, Sonic 1's not as hard to complete as I thought. I only had to retry Emerald 5 once.
And getting there was easier than I had remembered; a number of acts have 2 or 3 10-Ring Monitors near the end in hidden areas (lookin' at you, Star Light).

Fix'd for my specifications.

All I know is that same leaked Sega document from last year that talked about Vanquish (P*'s Mikami game, PS3/360), also talked about a "Sonic Blu-Ray Collection". If they were literally able to cram EVERY old Sonic game on there, with perfect emulation, that would effectively be the last Sonic-related thing I'd have to buy. Doubly so, if it included both Original and American OSTs of Sonic CD.  [eyebrow]

Jackpot! :P

At any rate, something other than Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection?

I like the Sonic Blue/Blu-Ray gimmick, though. XD

Sad part is, the an unofficial emulator running on the PSP has better results. Only drawback is you have to choose between proper water transparency or a slight reduction in framerate.

Also, Knuckles in Sonic 1.

I would have rather they give us a choice(I'd choose screen crop).
I like what RIN(GBC for PSP) lets you do. You can have a small section of the bottom or top compressed. works nicely with Zelda.

Speaking of which, why haven't we gotten this outside of Sonic Jam?

We never got that in Sonic Jam, it was a hack. What we got in Sonic Jam was Blue Sphere. From what I remember, the Sonic 1 engine had problems with Knuckles so they had to can the whole idea.

Jam only had Sonic 1 with spin dash. No Knuckles, no Tails, none of that.


What happens in Vegas stays on Youtube. I also stream on Twitch from time to time.

Oh right, that ~was~ a hack. My bad.

They were going to do it, but Knuckles' jump height kept it from being green-lighted.

Was it so hard to make him jump higher?

I thought it was an issue with the colors in Knuckles' sprite. Either that or gliding on conveyer belts woulda screwed something up, which doesn't make sense to me.

I think that was the issue, and some guys made it so you could use Knuckles in Sonic 1 without any screw-ups of the sort. They only hire total geniuses at Sega it seems.  ::) [/sarcasm]

I mean wouldn't color be as easy as making Knuckles' reds the same color as Sonic's shoes? If you wanted to take the really lazy way out?

I guess it must be better to have no game at all than to have a game with a slightly inaccurate color!

Eh, I got all three emulaited on the PC thanks to Genesis emulation AND the Sonic and Knuckles collection (I still have it, lol), so I don't have to go worry about spending $50+ at a local Kmart for a port gallery.

Workshop/DA/YT/Photobucket なにかんがえてるの!?
So its about ass now huh? EVEN THE ASS HAS 'EXCEEDED'!

One mention of LEGENDS and everyone goes batshit.  :\

Yep, every time when someone mentions that game people get energized for an apparent reason whatsoever. It's like this everywhere else, trust me.

It got really messy to find my sprite and comic topic, so it's in my sig.
