Opinions blinded by nostalgia- Time to get real!

Sega-16 is closing?

Mm...Sonic CD. Quite the let-down for me. I heard about it for all these years, and finally got to play it when it came out on GameCube. And I just thought the level designs were a mess. And some people said "this" was possibly the best Sonic game? I was pretty stunned. But whatever.

It's an exciting concept...that is undone by that concept-as-game. The game has no momentum.

It is quite the vindication of Naka.

Sigh.
Some people still don't understand that liking a game ≠ a game being good. The two have nothing to do with eachother. You are allowed to like bad games; there is nothing wrong with that.
But please let us try to discuss about the more objective values of games without being shot down by angry mods and fanboys.

Sonic CD infuriates me. I want to like it like I do the other classic Genesis Sonic's, but the level design is atrocious.

"Sonic Cd feels like it hates its character. It feels like it hates Sonic games in general. It doesn't want Sonic to run, and it doesn't want him to time travel."

Perfectly expresses my feelings. There are some good features in the game, but man the game has next to no flow. How the hell does it have such a following?

Co-sign.

I just hope this isn't taken as a personal attack on a "supermod".

Maybe the game is a status symbol, or argument for the CD.

You always hear it thrown around in defense of the Sega CD's existence.

Personally, I think Snatcher and Batman Returns are good enough arguments.

Oils, what makes you think I'm angry? Who decides if a game is good or bad? You?

16bitter, you have been walking a thin line for a long time and tons of people complain about you. The forum would likely be better without you. The community apparently does not find value in your posts. You also get butthurt over every little thing. Cool it or be gone.

Yeah, Sonic CD is pretty awful. I played it through 2 weeks ago, after reading again that some peoplee consider it the very best Sonic game.

But the more I play it, the more I hate it. Sure, the time travel idea is neat, but no matter what time you are in, the levels just feel badly designed. It´s just not a fun game. Beside the Sonic name, this game owes a lot of its hype to the then exciting FMV intro, the CD sound and the bonus stages. Take that stuff away and what remains is just a bad Sonic game.

People like what they like.

Learn how to deal with it.

Now you're just trying to pester me for the sake of pestering me. Be gone.

I guess now is a bad time to discuss how awesome Shaq-Fu is...

A ban and a lock all in a time span of 5 minutes; I'd say something's up.
To answer your other question: that's what discussion is for.

HURRAY! I finally get a chance to post this:

so much for a freaking banned..

since now I know sonic cd is a pretty bad game, does that mean sonic R is actually an amazing game?
