Why are there only 5 levels? You can 100% the game in 25 minutes.

This game sucks.

The only thing his game lacks is better controls. Soundtrack is kinda unfitting but also great.
Sega should release Sonic R 2 without "Sonic in a car" bullshit. I would play that.

All Sonic R was is a tech demo to show what a good 3D Sonic game might have looked like if the Saturn hadn't utterly shit the bed that generation.

The controls are smoother on the PC and gems ports. Though if that's what you played originally, then, yeah, they're not the best.

Wasn't it supposed to be an actual racing game with real cars until it was retrofitted with Sonic because Sega needed something Sonic related for the Saturn?

Traveller's Tales never got enough credit. They were basically a Naughty Dog that never found their Crash Bandicoot. Sega should have scrapped the racing concept entirely and just told them to make the flagship Sonic game.

>> No.7976483

>>7976478
I mean the way Naughty Dog hit it big with Crash, Traveller's Tales never landed that company defining game. They were constantly releasing technically impressive stuff on the Genesis and Saturn but it was all spinoffs or licensed games. Had Sega been like "here, make a real Sonic" they probably would have devised something similar to the 3D portion of Sonic Jam and it would have likely been decent.

It's an interesting combination of racing and platforming. The engine was fairly impressive for the Saturn. The game had secret collectables for unlocking characters and for challenge runs it's pretty fun to get first place + all collectables + unlocking secret character in one run.

There are a lack of courses, but I do find the 5 to be well packed. My taste in games are different than most, as a longer play time doesn't mean a better game to me. If the game isn't for you then you could move on from it even sooner than 25 minutes.

He's the fucking fastest thing alive. Yeah, I get it, give him a car so he can't use super speed and get to the finish line in 1 second.

But it still kinda dumb. Sonic on hoverboard was a better idea.

I wonder if why Sega seems so adverse to making a successor to Sonic R. It’s not like there’s a lack of characters to choose from, and apparently Team Sonic Racing’s teaser had some people thinking it’d be sort of like R.

The 25 minutes of music was worth it. Also, jumping and getting massive air time as Metal Sonic in the 2nd level was hilarious. Then I picked Knuckles and spent more than gliding through the level over running.

Why do you ride a skateboard, or roller blades, or anything else when a bike is more efficient? Because it’s fun.
Sonic probably uses a car because it’s fun.
I drive my car every day, but I still enjoy go-carts even if they are slower.
