He's back.

I personally really liked unleashed. The werehog is goofy but it hit me at just the right time as a kid were I thought it was cool.

We can all agree that the 3Ds port gave us one of the greatest remixes of Big Arms. Give it a listen, it's awesome. Fun fact: There are grapes in Sky Sanctuary because it's Knuckles' favorite fruit as listed in the SK&3 manual.

1. The drop dash was an idea SEGA and Sonic Team had since S3&K, but no game had implemented it until Mania, five and a half years after Generations. 2. The enemies in Sky Sanctuary are called "Egg Robo". The Hard-Boiled Heavies are specifically the Egg Robos in Mania that were present for the excavation of the Phamtom Ruby, which were then altered by it. 3. The day stages in Unleashed are spectacular, and the night stages are okay. Give it a try if you want.

Anyone coming back here after Sonic X Shadow Generations was announced?

my god, the amount of nostalgia i get from watching a playthrough of generations... this was my first ever sonic game, and im so glad it still holds up to this day

You should totally do a video over the advance series! Personally, I have huge nostalgia for them, and I’d love to see you cover them. Amazing content as always!

You’re the only KZfaqr I know that can recap an entire game in less than an hour and manage to make it interesting

4:00 i'm 4 minutes in and there's already a reference to my favourite indie game. I love you Choc

Back in 2011, I didnt even know what a Sonic was and this was my first sonic game and it instantly made me a fan, since then I've played more of the popular ones

28:35 I know you're used to frontiers controls, but this game controls fantastically, it's just a bit different.

As a kid I played this as my introduction to the sonic franchise and I regret nothing my favorite part was city escape with the music

Unleashed day stages are so fun but difficult. Getting S ranks is so satisfying.

I actually got Sonic Unleashed (Xbox version) for Christmas. Some notes: 1. Rooftop Run is in Italy. The game's plot is indeed a globe trotting adventure. 2. Each continent requires you to find 2 halves of a "Boss key." One is hidden a day and night zone. 3. Scattered throughout the game are Sun and Moon medals. They're not really that hard to find, but you a certain amout of both to unlock all the levels. 4. You can earn exp and level up. Pump it all into Werehog. 5. Speaking of Werehog, I liked it. Felt like classic God of War. The platform wasn't hard, only kinda slow. It's fun unlocking and using new moves though. 6. Eggmanland is only hard first time through. You'll get better again and again. 7. Not every enemy encounter is mandatory. Use that to save time. 8. The Boost and Homing attack are the same button. I've lost so many lives to that. 9. Chip is best bro. 10. Endless Possibilities slaps. It's made by the same band that made the Phineas and Ferb theme. Overall, it took a bit of time, but I absolutely enjoyed Sonic Unleashed. Can't wait to finally see you get to play it, Choc!

Live and Learn, City Escape, Green Forest, Knight of the Wind, and Security Hall. That's my top five. But honestly, honorable mentions to all of Rouge's other stage music from SA2 because all of her stage tracks are bangers. Honorable mention to the music that plays when you fight the Biolizard before the Live and Learn fight, too.

Top five Sonic tracks: 5: What im made of 4: crisis city 3: supporting me 2: live and learn 1: Solaris phase 2 Top 5 vocal tracks 5: I’m here 4: his world 3: what I’m made of 2: supporting me 1: live and learn

This game was one of the best parts of my childhood. Everytime I would stay with my dad, this was the first thing I would play. I’m getting all nostalgic now. Needs a remaster❤️🙌

Honestly, This was a peak sonic game and still remains my favorite. Glad to see Choc enjoyed!

Choc dunking on Sonic Colors hurt my heart cuz it was my first and still is my favorite- Especially the DS version.

My defense for colors is that I played it when I was a child for the first time. Now it will forever hold a place in my heart

This game was my first Sonic game, and also the first that I beat, and I still love the game to this day! It brought alot of memories to my little kid self, and me being a teen now, I still have that soft spot for it!

Hey, I was just playing generations. And yeah this game is easily on of the best in the franchise. It’s one of the only games that is unanimously agreed to be a certified classic.

It may take you a year, but Unleashed is a must play

26:58 Correct! Also my Top 5 Sonic Tracks: 5: What I’m Made Of 4: Escape from the City - Generations Classic 3: Open your Heart- K Klub Remix 2: With Me 1: Live and Learn Honourable Mention: Molten Mine aka Black Dawn Action Theme

I was born in 2007 and I played this on my grandparents 360 throughout my childhood and loved it This will probably always be my favorite sonic game even though they've started to become better with frontiers

I feel like people get too wrapped up in what this game is based on rather than what it is. This game has the some of best sonic controls, levels and level design in sonic history, and it shouldn't be overlooked just because of the level themes.

Generations was my first Sonic game, so seeing choc play it is really cool. I think I got it as a birthday gift back when the Xbox 360 was still relatively new. It unfortunately made me not play any other Sonic games, because while I found it fun, it felt like it was punishing you for going fast. Mind you I was little and not very good so I definitely need to revisit it.

Sonic Generations is my first mainline Sonic game and it got me addicted to the franchise for life!

I replayed through part of this game months ago, and the story kind of reminded me of World of Light in the sense that something bad has happened to your friends/allies and you must save them…except you don’t get to play as those that you save.

The reason you're having so much trouble with the boost controls is because unlike frontiers, the boost gameplay in this game is specifically designed to have you boosting at all times, with the challenge being maintaining that boost without hitting obstacles. Watch a glitchless speedrun to see what I mean. Unleashed has this same kind of gameplay except its levels are much more linear so the weird turning isn't really much of an issue most of the time, it mainly just comes down to quick reactions.

I love Generations so much, if only it had more levels

Now that you mention it, generations was my first sonic game, and it was an introduction. I LOVE generations so much. It was love at first play

People seem to forget that it’s not multiverse related, it’s timeline related, classic sonic isn’t sonic from another dimension, he’s from another time, the places you visit are from the past

Sonic Generations was my first Sonic game. My dad got it for me when I was growing up and I loved it. Only later did I find out it was a collection from his other games and had me checking all of them out. (Also yes I've heard the PC port of the game has issues) Also, Colors is great and I've had enough of this slander good day.

Dang Choc, that introduction to the video is some top tier editing.

It was my first sonic game, I can't describe the joy I felt as I child playing it and yet I understood almost nothing because I didn't even know English nor the characters but I did understand that one is from the past and the other is like a grown up version of him

31:12 not gonna lie this game was actually my first sonic experience ever never knew the characters or the stories until I played this game about 9 years ago

Some info for generations : the challenges have bells on them if you jump through them music notes will appear, blue ones are artwork and golden ones are songs from the games and you can use them in different stages (just for those who didn’t know 👍🏻)

Generations wasn't my first sonic game but it was the first one I beat and the first one I fell in love with. Colors was also the only game represented in Generations that I played first, so Gens was my introduction to green hill, chemical plant, angel island, speed highway, city escape, ocean palace, crisis city, and rooftop run

your videos are good. sometimes i put them on in the background and go to sleep. not because they are boring, but are good background noise and tbh they're a good watch. you're welcome for the watch time.

I loved the amount of unleashed I did play when I was younger. I got stuck at 1 part and never made it past and now 2023 and I've realized I have never seen the ending of the game. Might have to buy the game again

Hey, so to answer your question about the 1st boss fight, it is locked into classic sonic, but the perspective of the pre boss cut scene changes depending on which sonic you go in as

Holy shit the nostalgia I’m getting from watching this. I was 8 when the game came out, and I remembered watching Cobanermani456 playing it and using tons of mods for it. The music is still amazing.

This was my first sonic game and what introduced me to the characters, and it was what made me love the franchise ever since, but i found it extremely difficult since I was quite young, lol

Sonic generations WAS my first sonic game, and i didnt feel weird that it was an anniversary title, mostly i didnt understand. Eventually i grew to know alot more about sonic and it made sense to me.

My first ever Sonic game was this one. Even without the knowledge of past games, it's still an amazing game itself.

Sonic Generations on the *3DS* was my first Sonic game. I was pretty surprised at how short it was in comparison to Mario games, but I remember thinking that the music was amazing! Listening to the music collection convinced me that I had to play other Sonic games

30:03 Love that both Tails' and Classic Sonic protect themselves, but Modern Sonic protects Classic Tails

I got Generations for free with my Xbox Gold membership and I figured I might as well give it a try. It was free I haven’t played any Sonic games since I was a child. I had a great time, and the SA2 levels, especially the Shadow mini-boss, had nostalgia hit me like a truck. It ended up getting me back into Sonic, and I’m planning to binge Sonic SatAm and X hopefully soon.

12:24 got me laughing so hard it caught me so off guard 😂😂😂

Generations was my 1st ever not only sonic game but consol game much love for this amazing game that I still play to this day

Honestly, I loved all of the games featured on the Wii and I still do. They were all fun especially because of the motion control imo.

As someone who has been replaying sonic generations for fun and sonic unleashed for actually trying to beat it since I was stuck as a kid Generations is always fun to revisit and to try cool tricks and Unleashed is just a bit more challenging but remember to strengthen your wearhog and collect all the medals you can to progress story Here's to me beating Sonic unleashed soon

Sonic colors had already lit a pretty powerful candle in the cave,generations just came and put down a whole street light

this is my first time seeing generations. Super cool man! I should try it out for myself

Here’s to hoping the remake has a Black Knight section where Sonic gets to use a sword. It’d be even better if they merged it with the Werehog.

"Why does Modern Sonic control like this in this game" Frontiers Sonic is relieved rn knowing he controls 5 times worse in Cyberspace

I would actually like to see him replay some of these levels as the entire point is to improve with each attempt. Even your second attempt will be leagues better than your first as you will know where everything is. Just look at how much he improved in Rooftop Run.

Funny that youu commented, generations was my first sonic game, and oh boy, its my favorite till now

26:21 the- they did tHE THING, THEY DID THE THING!

6:40 Honestly I think I liked it because I had the NDS port one, which I think had lot of differences from the Wii one. Also I really like Reach For the Stars. ALSO also, there was a bonus section with the blueprints of the Eggman's robots, which I loved to try to redraw identically.

This game is the ultimate game to get outsiders in this funky fandom, and it’s just amazing.

My top 5 sonic songs is probably like this 1: Rooftop Run 2: What im Made of 3: Open your heart 4: Escape from the city (classic sonic/act 1 generations) 5: break through it all

50:07 FACTS those Super sonic boss fights are everything EVERYTHING

The first mainline sonic game I owned was the alternative version of unleashed which was on Wii and PS2, I enjoyed it a lot but then I saw the hd version and its differences which inspired me to check out the whole series. Aside from unwiished, I played advance 3 which was fine. But something I want them to make a collection for is the rush series.

My first sonic games were generations and unleashed, eventually I played the adventure and classic games and thought the series was peak and didn’t understand why people didn’t really enjoy the series, but then I played the games after generations and realised what went wrong. I really enjoyed frontiers and hope for the best for whatever comes out next

I felt a bit old when you called the sonic adventure stages the "Gamecube Era" hahaha. The adventure games (1 and 2) were originally released on the dreamcast, Sega's last console.

1 year later and sonic generations is finally getting a remaster and new content...And its actually gonna be on switch 😁 (I have been waiting for it to be on switch since the release)

Fun fact: originally sega was considering bringing back Jaleel white for classic Sonic’s role in generations but they scrapped the idea before they even contacted him

The enemies in Sky Sanctuary are Egg-Robos, The hard boiled heavies were Egg-Robos that were transformed from the Phantom Ruby

I love 14:40 on this where you just namedrop and defend MEGA Bloks/Construx/MEGA.

Fun fact: Classic sonic actually CAN talk. He just only does in sonic CD. By saying stuff like "alright!", "Yeah!", or his famous "Yes!" with a 1up.

funny as it is, this was actually my first sonic game and I really really loved it, and over the years it's been so cool to play all the sonic games and be like "oh that's where this and that came from"

I really enjoyed watching this playthrough, this is my favorite game thanks in part to the massive mod support for it! If you are looking for good mods to play I'd highly recommend the Unleashed Project and 06 Project, it reworks the whole game to be all the best levels from both games!

5. Live and learn 4. Cosmic eternity. 3. Classic crisis city. 2. Back2back 1. Open your heart.

It's 100% better than anything that's come out in a decade.

I feel the same about Mario Sunshine. It was so fun as a kid. I remember always asking to go to Walmart to play the display, and then play at friends' houses. Playing it recently on the All-Stars collection was... rough. I would play Odyssey or Galaxy after quiting just to feel good controls again lol. I hope Heroes isn't that way.

31:12 yeah, I got it for Christmas when I was 8 with my xbox 360 along side minecraft. this game made me a pretty big fan of the series and I now own every genesis game along with 2 genesis consoles including the x-eye and model 2

I’m loving this new editing style for the beginning intro

This was actually my first sonic game I played, I was already a sonic fan but I could only watch playthroughs online so I got generations so I could experience a little a bit of everything

26:11 this hits so diferent after the SxSG trailer

1. Imagine the voice director telling Mike, yeah Just laugh till you cough out blood. 2. Yeah I just want Jim Cummings to voice Robotnik in the future

This was my first real sonic game. Sure, I had Sonic 3 & knuckles on the Wii, but I never made it past the second zone, and I still play generations to this day

It's great when choctopus is playing another great sonic game

This game will always be my second favorite due to all the memories of playing it, surprisingly enough my first sonic game was sonic 4 and i loved to death and now playing it again i see why people hate it but i always will still hold it close to my heart

31:15 Sonic generations was my first ever sonic game, and it was the game that got me into the sonic franchise, and i gotta say, its a really great first impression of sonic games as a whole.

It feels so good watching someone enjoy Generations. Love this game. The modding community and the replayability are so good. Please download level mods cuz they are so well designed

Honestly, I'd love to see you tackle something a bit more out there than Lost World or Boom. The Storybook Series (Sonic & The Black Knight, Sonic & The Secret Rings) was a favorite of mine as a kid, since the Wii was the first console my parents got me, and they were Wii exclusive. (My Mom said she couldn't NOT get a Wii, it was the only thing on my list for Christmas that year. To this day, she still says it was the hardest thing she's ever gotten her hands on, even with working at an Electronic Store at the time & all the connections that brings). I don't really know how the fandom at large feels about them, but I liked that they did something a little different with Sonic. Taking him into different Classic Literature settings ('King Arthur,' 'The Arabian Nights') was a cool concept I wish got expanded on more, especially given since most of it was Public Domain, there's a LOT of cool things to pull from.

4:02 OMORI REFRENCE??? Seriously though I love watching your playthroughs of sonic. serious nostalgia.

5: All hail Shadow. 4: Open your heart. 3: Undefeatable. 2: What I'm made of. 1: Solaris phase 2.

I like to say that a modified version of Generations Physics and controls with Frontiers open world design philosophy would be extasy.

I think the unleashed version of rooftop run is better than in generations Also if you collect all the red rings in planet wisp act 1 you can homing attack with classic sonic if you equip it by going to the skill shop

50:50 Amy smacks knuckles into a tree and I started dying in laugher

this video made my day!! you're unbelievably funny choctopus

"Unleashed was a memory that no one will forget"

I loved the 2D stages in Sonic. The 3D stages were an improvement from what has been years earlier but loved the 2D stages of Sonic Generation back in the day.

25:17 bro really violated Sonic team ☠️

22:03 LETS BLAST THROUGH WITH SONIC SPEED

Unleashed has some really fun day stages but they're definitely a lot tougher than generations or colors as far as i can tell though there's a lot less 2D segments than both games (still got a bunch but, yknow, in moderation) The werehog of course is gonna be very dependent on the person and mindset going in, my best advice is to experiment with combos and to not go in expecting uh. fast paced gameplay If you do play unleashed your best bet is to play it on xbox series x/s, but if you cant do that just dont get the ps3 version cause the framerate is absolutely abysmal, and the wii and ps2 versions are entirely different games

They had a chance to refer to the final boss as the “Egg Timer” and they squandered it…
