Sonic Origins

These short but stylish animations are lovingly produced, capturing the spirit of the characters and the tone of each game without overstaying their welcome.

i wanna start by saying that i love this game. i think its the best way to play the classic games (If it werent for the soundtrack changes in sonic 3). but unfortunately, the sheer lack of care from SEGA is unacceptable. the main menu isnt optimized at all, the game crashes almost everytime you boot it up (i have to either click out of the window and re-enter it to get it to work, or i have to unplug my controller and re-plug it at the title screen), there arent any real accessible customization options (example: in sonic 1, if you wanna disable the spindash, you have to enter a cheat code. and you cant disable the dropdash from mania in any of the games either). the plus edition didnt fix any of these problems. plus, they de-listed all individual classic sonic titles, forcing this to be the only official way to play these titles on pc. if the crashes and barely functioning menu dont bother you, i definitely reccomend it. but unfortunately, the issues are too many to ignore for me.

This dual-mode structure is one of the strongest features of Sonic Origins, allowing players to choose between nostalgia and accessibility without sacrificing the core gameplay.

• When playing with a controller (highly recommended - although if you have an Xbox Elite controller like me, I recommend swapping the circular D-pad out for the regular D-pad) the mouse cursor doesn't go away, so you have to move it off to the side manually.

Compilation with the 4 classic 2D Sonic games, with museum content, bug fixing and an AWSOME CUTE animation mini story; The games give LESSONS in plataforming and difficulty, Sonic 3 is a masterpiece.
