0 0 Read Time:5 Minute, 3 Second Wait…did we review Sonic Origins already? Yep, I did! That was the Playstation version though…and technically, this review is based of the PC version and centralized on the Sonic Origins Plus Expansion.So yeah…this is new content.I don’t mind in the least though because if you’ve read my review (which I’ve helpfully linked above), you know that I loved Sonic Origins! More of that can’t be a bad thing, right?!So without further ado, here’s the review!What is Sonic Origins Plus?Sonic Origins Plus is the enhanced version of Sonic Origins, which was released last year on the PC, Playstation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch consoles. It’s a collection of classic 5 Sonic games, with the Plus Expansion adding in 12 new Game Gear titles.The game is developed and published by SEGA, who also awesomely provided us with the STEAM code! Thanks so much!Since I’ve already reviewed the original game, I won’t be retreading familiar ground. You can just head on up to the link earlier if you want to find out what I thought of the original.For those with Sonic Origins already, the Plus Expansion is just a measly SG$14.40 on Steam. For that amount, you get 12 Game Gear games, Amy playable in the classic games included in Sonic Origins and the Classic Music and Premium Fun packs, which were previously paid DLC for Sonic Origins.If this is your first foray into the game, then Sonic Origins Plus is a damn good deal. It’s basically everything in one neat package For a little over the original asking price. That’s fantastic!However, things are considerably less rosy if you’re an early adopter who bought the premium edition of Sonic Origins. These guys sadly get screwed by losing out on the DLC (since it’s already bundled in with the Plus Expansion) AND paying the same amount for the Plus Expansion while technically getting less content, since they already have the DLC.From a purely objective point of view, the Sonic Origins Plus Expansion is undoubtedly good value. Amy is a fun character to use in the original games (though she’s not as revolutionary as Knuckles was when he was included in Sonic 1 – 3).The two DLC packs (which really should’ve been included with the main game) also add in stuff that adds to the value.However, the main draw (the 12 Game Gear games) aren’t as great a deal as you’d think.Before you ask, here are the titles:Tails’ Sky PatrolTails AdventuresSonic the HedgehogSonic the Hedgehog 2Sonic the Hedgehog: Triple TroubleSonic SpinballDr. Robotnik’s Mean Bean MachineSonic BlastSonic DriftSonic Drift 2Sonic LabryinthSonic ChaosOther than the sheer quantity, they’re a bit lacking in quality. As a Game Gear owner back in the day, I can attest to that personally. There’s a reason nobody remembers the system or most of its games (there are a few exceptions like Shining Force Gaiden and its sequel) and that reason is…well, they’re pretty crappy.Nintendo won the 90s portable wars for a damn reason.I mean just play

Don’t expect straight ports of these Sega classics, though. In addition to remastered visuals updated for today’s consoles, Sonic Origins includes new achievements, collectibles, animated shorts, and game modes, putting a fresh pair of sneakers on these old classics. In Sonic Origins, players will be able to choose between playing in classic mode or anniversary mode. In classic mode, players will experience the games in all their original glory and original aspect ratios. Anniversary mode offers a full-screen experience along with infinite lives so you won’t have to worry about getting repeatedly crushed to death in Chemical Plant Zone (you know the place.)Sonic Origins lets you play as Sonic, Tails, or Knuckles throughout all four games giving you the opportunity to beat Metal Sonic as Knuckles or fly through Green Hill Zone as Tails. While Sega has given fans umpteen bundles of the first three Sonic games, Sonic CD hasn’t seen a proper re-release since 2011. No word yet on if this version of the game will feature the US or (the vastly superior) Japanese version of its soundtrack. Judge for yourself.You can preorder the game here, but it seems like Sega has decided to make this process as confusing as possible. Sega, Sonic fans have proven we will open our wallets for anything, don’t make this harder than it has to be.While it’ll likely be some time yet before we see gameplay for Sonic Frontiers, Sonic Origins is perfectly suited to occupy fans until then.Sonic Origins launches on Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and PC on June 23rd.

This compilation features Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic 2, Sonic 3 & Knuckles and Sonic CD – and Sega has remastered all of them. Sonic Origins also has added features, all-new content and a couple of new modes.So, what differentiates this collection from the others? Like Sonic Mania and the Sonic CD remaster, this compilation comes from programmer Christian Whitehead and developer Headcannon. Because of that, the games look fantastic on modern platforms, such as the PS5, Xbox Series X and PC. There are also a number of gameplay enhancements that make the titles easier for modern audiences. Newly created cutscenes for each game also help the collection stand out from previous iterations.On its own, Sonic Origins is a solid collection that contains all of the best 2D Sonic games, save for Sonic Mania. But while there’s nothing wrong with the titles in this package, it’s hard to say this is the best Sonic compilation released. This all makes for a somewhat compromised compilation that falls a little bit short of perfection.You may likeSplit Fiction is the best co-op game I’ve played since It Takes Two — but some of the magic is lostLike a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii is the best spin-off yet — here's my verdict after 30 hoursSonic Origins review: Story Classic Sonic the Hedgehog games have extremely basic stories.

It’s up to the speedy Sonic the Hedgehog and his allies to stop Robotnik and save the day.(Image credit: Sega)What’s interesting about Sonic Origins is how it loosely ties each game’s “story” together via

Sonic boom, sonic boom, sonic boom I try not to have opinions about the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It’s dangerous. What’s wrong with the series? Why does it have such a ravenous fanbase? What games are good? Which ones are bad? Well, we certainly go back to the Sega Genesis titles a lot, which is what Sonic Origins is. I’m pretty sure I’ve accidentally bought Sonic the Hedgehog more times than I’ve intentionally bought any other game. Sonic Origins promises to be more of a remaster, but that’s a weird way to use that word. It’s widescreen now. I guess that’s something. Sonic Origins (PS4, PS5 [Reviewed], PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Switch) Developer: Sega Publisher: Sega Released: June 23, 2022 MSRP: $39.99 For the record, Sonic Origins is a compilation of Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Sonic the Hedgehog CD, and Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Admittedly, there’s a lot more to Sonic Origins than just widescreen ports; the upgrades are just very granular. I could go down the list of changes, but they don’t amount to a whole lot. Some of them you have to pay extra for, which is absolutely galling. The changes are mostly to be found in each game’s anniversary mode. Titles that couldn’t support different character configurations now do. You can play as Tails or Knuckles in Sonic the Hedgehog. You can play as Tails and Knuckles as a pair in Sonic the Hedgehog 2. Tails is also in Sonic CD (but not Knuckles). Notably, in anniversary mode, limited lives have been removed. While I can’t say I miss them, the games were developed around them being an obstacle. Without limited lives, the games are all a lot easier. Making progress is as simple as barrelling ahead to the next checkpoint. You can choose to play in classic mode, which restores them to their former difficulty, but then you don’t get the widescreen option, so… The processing is just so blast! Another big addition in Sonic Origins is animated cutscenes that bookend the games. That’s a neat idea, since the original games mostly had their stories told exclusively through the medium of instruction manual (and not all that accurately). They’re not very enlightening, as they’re short skits without dialogue, but they set the stage reasonably well. The early series narratives were basic to begin with — abstract to the point of confusing — so the added cartoons definitely do their job. There’s the obligatory museum that I have never been capable of getting enthused over. It’s useful if you want to play the “drowning music” on loop. Because who doesn’t want to listen to the musical representation of anxiety repeatedly? Some things you need to unlock using coins, which are given to the player as a bonus instead of the lives and continues that the original Sega Genesis releases doled out. However, that’s not the best use for coins. Coins are used to retry those horrible Chaos Emerald bonus stages when you
