Sonic 3 & Knuckles
It's gotta be Flying Battery Act 2, it's just the music and some of the speeds you reach, I just love the stage design.
It's also another vote S3&K, it's gotta be that final boss! I wonder if Doomsday Zone can be counted as that whole final boss part?

Great thread idea johnl. It's a tough one because although I love Sonic games, but it's not something I've ever really thought about (other than the best Sonic game one - that's easy!)

OK, let's give it a go!:
Game - Sonic 3 (would say S3&K but I prefer the Sonic 3 music)
Zone - Hydrocity Zone from Sonic 3 (great zone, pretty fast for a water zone, plus the music in act 2 is superb)
Boss - This is the tough one. I think I'm going to go with Lava Reef from Sonic & Knuckles, but Sandopolis Act 1 was pretty good too.

I remember how long it took me to figure out how to beat the sandoplis act 1 boss when i was little!

Game: Sonic 3 & Knuckles

Level: Really tough call. There are so many greats. City Escape's varied obstacles, Speed highways redefinition of speed, Lost world's puzzles, Kingdom Valley's Scenery, Doomsday's great finale, Green Hill for starting it all...

but my vote goes for the breathtaking Sky Sanctuary.

Boss: This one is much easier. Nothing got my heart pumping more than the race with Metal Sonic in Sonic CD.

The giant robot from Death Egg in S3&K, All the Super fights, Egg Wyvern and Egg Viper all deserve honurable mentions.

Game: Sonic CD (My first real Sonic game after the Pico titles.)
Level: The Sonic 3D Blast Saturn Bonus Stage. (Do Special Stages count?)
Boss: Metal Sonic in Sonic CD!

My favorite well there too many stage and bosses include music as well.

Game:sonic 3 and knuckles and sonic adventure2
level:ice cap zone act 1 and 2 and city escape and final rush.
boss:doomsday boos beacuse there were two boss and sonic against shadow in space easy but little tough.

Stardust Speedway Zone eh? Yeah, that was a great boss (and one of the few zone's where the music was good whether you were playing the US or Jap version!)

Just wondering whether to change my post above...

Game: Sonic the hedgehog with spin dash! I will never forget the 1st time I played it and the spin dash helps keep things fresh after playing the others.

Level: carnival night zone, I like the music and balloons.

Boss: casino night zone, I like pinball :P

I played a rom, because someone told me how bad it was. The slowdown on it is just horrible.

Yeah, I played it on the PSP GBA emulator (very good, by the way). I was pleased and horrified when I found out that the slowdown and jerkiness was not due to the emulator!

Yup. I purchased the game and it definitely left me feeling like... "Hey, they took out the Blast Processing (http://www.radiosega.net/forum/showthread.php?t=123) and dummbed down the sound!" Oh well, its not like I don't have a gazillion and one other systems to play Sonic 1 on.

Heh true, it's a shame there isn't a decent legit portable version though. Also it's the only other version of sonic 1 that has spin dash.

Favourite game: Sonic CD
Favourite Level: A hard choice and there's no clear winner but i love Sky Chase!
Favourite boss was Metal Sonic (Sonic CD)

7Force
10-04-2008, 23:08
Very tough since I have many so I cant really choose just one so heres my list.

Sonic Game: it’s a tie between Sonic 2 and Sonic 3 & Knuckles

Level: Sky Sanctuary and Angel Island from S3&K, Green Hill from S1, Emerald Hill from S2 and Windy Valley from Sonic Adventure.

Boss: I’d say Metal Sonic V2 from S3&K when you played as Knuckles. When he jumped on the Master Emerald and everything lit up it looked so epic. And the final boss from Sonic Adventure 2 when you teamed up with Shadow and Crush 40’s Live & Learn kicked in, just epic.

Music: Angel Island, City Escape, Live & Learn, Emerald Hill 2P VS music and Windy Valley.

10-04-2008, 23:37
This is a difficult choice but...
Sonic The Hedgehog 3 & Knuckles.

Zone - Carnival Night as it was full of lights and the only level I actually find challenging heh.

Boss - Lava Reef Act 2 (Sonic)

Music - Act 1 Boss theme.

Kool Chao
10-04-2008, 23:59
Can't believe I missed this thread!
Game - Close call, but... Sonic 3 & Knuckles, for being the most complete of them all, I guess.
Level - Yet another tough choice... Ice Cap from Sonic 3 and Lost World in Adventure 1 (epic stage and awesome starting music).
Boss - Another tie, between S3&K's final boss and S2's Death Egg boss (not to tough now, but 16 years ago...).
Special Stage - Sonic 2
Music - Many... Chemical Plant, Flying Batteries, Star Light, Lost World... and so on!

Favourite music, huh? Live and Learn from Sonic Adventure 2, Ice Cap from Sonic 3, Star Light, Angel Island to name a few. The soundtracks from Sonic games are usually very good.

My favourite level in a Sonic game must be the first level in Sonic Adventure. Always got me in a good mood in a period of my life where not everything was easy. The bright colours and happy music gives me a smile even today:)

Yep, Emerald Coast always seems to cheer me up too. I love to speed up through the sand!

I quite liked Pumpkin Hill at the time. Not quite sure if it'd be my cup of tea these days, but it's probably the only Knuckles level out of both Sonic Adventures that I could tolerate.

Streets of Rage (Bare Knuckle!) I am obsessed with this game my whole life. Haha

My favorite level, the last one. When you fight all the bosses over again. The music is intense and I get an adrenaline rush every time I play it.

My favorite boss but at the same time I HATE THEM is the twins. Blaze Fielding's sisters. XD

No, you can't make me choose, it's too hard!

Oh alright then...

Game - Sonic 2 MD version(although it's a very close call)

Level - It's a dead heat between Star Light Zone (Sonic 1) and Scrambled Egg Zone (Sonic 2 Master System) Both move at lightning speeds and have superb music.

Boss - Sonic 2 Death Egg just pips the glorious finale to S3&K. It's probably just 'cause I was younger the first time I played it, it left more of an impression.

Special Stage - Sonic 2. Surely everyone agrees on this one.

Music - Now this is impossible. Scrambled Egg Zone (Sonic 2 MS) Sky Base Zone (Sonic 1 MS), Mystic Cavern (split screen mode Sonic 2 MD) Icecap Zone (Sonic 3) most of Sonic R it's an endless list....

Yeah, I loved that zone. There was also Final Egg in Sonic Adventure :P. Egg Carrier as an adventure field too.

Someone at SEGA must really love eggs, because we know that Dr. Robotnik (Eggman) isn't a bit self centered :P

I can imagine Homer Simpson working for SEGA:
"So, what shall we call this level?"
"How about Death Egg Zone? What do you think, Homer?"
"Mmmm.... Egg...":P

Favorite Game? Sonic the Hedgehog(1991) of Course!its the first and best one!
Favorite level? Green Hill, or the Air level from Sonic Adventure. They show you just how awesome Sonic is/was.
Favorite Boss? The BioLizard. It was challenging, and fun to do.
Ill Add one: My favorite Sonic character is Sonic and Tails. Why? because they gave me many fgood Sonic Memories.

Game: Sonic The Hedgehog 2
Level: Green Hill Zone 2
Special Stage: Sonic 2's
Boss: Sonic adventure battle 2,

-Sonic the Hedgehog 2 was the first sonic game I played, and it was amazing, no sonic game since has had such great gameplay or levels

-Green Hill Zone, nostalgia, everytime I hear that music and see the bright colours my heart skipps a beat with excitement =3

-Again Sonic 2, I haven't really enjoyed many special stages, most seem a little flawed?

-Sonic Adventure Battle 2, fighting the lizzard with Super Sonic and Hyper Shadow, with the rock theme blasting away in the background, epic fight, I was on the edge of my seat <3

15-05-2008, 16:49
Hm..cool as it was, the fight against Final Hazard was frigging annoying. Not as annoying as BioHazard, it must be said, but still, a very annoying boss battle.

Perfect Chaos was better :D

In terms of gameplay it was a pain in the ass =] glitchy and annoying, but the experience was really amazing

Was Biohazzard Shadow's boss fight, the lizzard before it managed..to...teleport itself o_O cause that fight took me weeks to finish, very frustrating

Gavvie
15-05-2008, 18:04
Yeah..actually, I think it's name was BioLizard, thinking about it. But yeah, that was the last boss of the Dark Story.

I've only beaten it once, and that was on the GC port. Could never beat him on the DC original, which is a bit odd but there you go.

Rayne
15-05-2008, 18:12
Its sad to see the sonic games in a downspiral...the sonic for 360/PS3 was pretty dissapointing, although it had its moments..

The one in development for Wii looks really promising =] werewolf...ish...

Actually, the last boss of the Dark Story was... Sonic, I guess. I mean, Shadow vs Sonic.
BioLizard was included in the Final Story, after Cannon's Core and before the final boss. :)

My favorite goes to the one and only Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Again in S3&K, Flying Battery (the two acts!) because of the songs and when it gives a new beat in Act 2. The boss...Death Egg and The Doomsday (of course, with Hyper Sonic!) because of the two giant Eggman robots and the chance to transform into Super (or Hyper) in The Doomsday. The one thing I hate in the level is that you lose rings fast!

Personally, I really enjoy Sonic triple Trouble on the Game Gear. Just the thought of Sonic (and Tails) going against 3 enemies at once is cool. Level, I couldn't tell you honestly.

Boss, while cliche would probably be eggman on Doomsday Zone. I hope sonic team makes another game like Sonic Triple trouble.
