It's Sonic interrupting Shadow in the "I'll make you eat those words" cutscene that makes it so good in my opinion. It just feels so much more relatable since Sonic is really pissed off.
Shadow: "Fake? You're not even good enough to-"
Sonic: "I'LL MAKE YOU EAT THOSE WORDS!!!"
Shadow: "Don't interrupt me."
LOL
LOL
Sonic: Screw you Faker I’m Sonic The Hedgehog!
haha LET THE HOG SPEAK
@@SegaNintendoGuy64 Shadow:FIRST OFF rude,and second off you're the faker!
I vote for Sonic 06...the world MUST know what the fuck happened.
+Nyxter x agreed. it was meant to be the best Sonic game ever but it got rushed too much.
Watch Yuriofwind's vid on it.
does he explain what went wrong with the games development?
do you mean how main people quit the project And how portions of the team went to work on the Wii titles?
+Nyxter x The fact the the demo was more polished than the final product, SOMETHING must have happened during development.
Like someone spilled soda and lost a large chunk of data or something.
God the soundtrack for that game was the best I couldn't get enough of it
Trenton Hill My favorite game ost probablt
Me too.
I still listen to a lot of the songs on a weekly basis
@@RhythmGrizz same thing here! 😂
That guitar solo in Live and Learn is my favorite
Still some of the best music in a modern video game even today.
Sooooo...
Maria died of videogame AIDS? Well that 's depressing...
I guess she played too much 06 and Boom.
+phantompacker99 Actually, she was killed when GUN shut down the colony because they deemed Shadow too dangerous.
+phantompacker99 She was afflicted with videogame AIDS, she died by G.U.N.
+phantompacker99 Have you ever wanted to cure AIDS so much that you created the 'perfect life form'?
I don't get how that makes any sense.
That can't be, she died from being shot, that's what the games constantly tell us.
In all my life, I never knew rail grinding shoes actually existed in real life.
Ithritable I bought those and ran around in a Sonic costume and grind on rails
Didn't go so well
You forgot to pick up enough speed
Yup, they're called Soap shoes.
Honestly having them talk over each other makes the conversations seem a lot more realistic
Sonic Adventure 2 was one of my favorite games growing up. Loved the rock soundtrack. Who else played on Gamecube?
MoodziGaming I really want to.
I only played the Dreamcast version
Just Dreamcast and later Steam for me
Meee
Dreamcast. Only Dreamcast.
How do you make a black hedgehog when trying to create immortality? You had ONE JOB, damn it!
the ULTIMATE BEING, a mary sue hedgehog. because the first thing you think of when trying to make something immortal is a hedgehog rather than, oh i dont know, yourself? test MICE beforehand too, instead of anthropomorphic weird noodly hedgehogs.
+MinimiMax i think they made shadow so they could use his cells to make people immortal
+MinimiMax So what does a hedgehog have to do with a newt?
+Kelsey Raabe Which is why he died at the end of Sonic Adventure 2.
...
Are we sure that Gerald's PhD is legit?
+MinimiMax well you know the last boss the biolizard that was the prototype you should be asking how the hell he went from that to a hedgehog
but i heard a pretty good fan explanation
basically gerald robotnik discovered two murals the one from soinc adventure 1 which shows perfect chaos
this lead to the biolizard
and he also discovered the mural in sonic 3 which shows super sonic
this lead to shadow being created and explains why shadow has his quills turned up just like super sonic's
and the reason the biolizard and shadow are black and red is because of they are both made from black doom's blood
and as you can see in the shadow game the all of the black arms are black and red
so the colors were passed on genetically
and yes i do know to much about sonic
It's crazy how similar Sonic's Japanese and English voices are
+cannonfodder4000 That profile pic.....
Canalave Maiden It's not that bad. He just sounds like he's getting older. Shadow on the other hand...
Samir Malik xD
+cannonfodder4000 that is what is known as good casting.
also you may want to finish fucking BEFORE leaving comments in the future.
*used to be.
Sonic adventure 2 was my shit, one of my favorite games ever
Word bro I fucking love this game
Hi
1 of my favorite games
Patrick Keane Ever heard of opinions?
Patrick Keane
I replay this game all the time and I still think it's great. Eggmans level offer a satisfying "blow em all up" arcade kind of gamemode while the treasure hunting levels are fun to explore and memorize.
If the moon had suddenly lost half its mass, would it still keep its synchronous rotation?
I don't know exactlty how it would rotate, but since the gravity between two objects is dependent on each of their masses, it's probably a safe assumption that if the Moon had lost a significant chunk of mass that it would simply fly out of orbit around Earth. Not to mention the Laser that the ARK fired at it should have resulted in some kind of reaction. But this is just a 3D Sonic game, they aren't exactly known for very good physics.
Well the world would also flood because of that but it's a Sonic game they aren't exactly known for scientific consistency
@@jacobmonks3722 The Earth would still likely be the biggest mass near the moon so it would still gravitate to it, but throwing off the rotations balance could see it drift away gradually or at least give it a weird orbit.
This game was Chao Adventure 2 for me.
+Chadtronic Yea me too somewhere... until I lost my GC's Memory Card :
+Chadtronic Why wasn't that ever mentioned in this video?
I liked hitting OmoChao XD
I'm a maniac
+Chadtronic Still waiting for a stand alone Chao game
+Chadtronic same.
Mario 64 + outdated = Best game of all time.
Ocarina of time + outdated = Best game of all time
Pokemon Red + outdated = Best game of all time
Crash + outdated = Best game of all time
Spyro + outdated = Best game of all time
Sonic adventure 1-2 + outdated = Worst game ever
Seems legit
+Anyway Channel. Words of truth, right here. Especially for OoT.
+Anyway Channel. I think you can partially blame Egoraptor for that. Since he doesn't like Sonic Adventure, a lot of fans "have" the same opinion. No hate towards him, just saying.
+Anyway Channel. Just because people like the Game Grummps say it, everyone needs to believe it. I played SADX myself and really enjoyed it. I had it's age in mind and still think, it's a well crafted game.
+Anyway Channel. Actually, I personally see OoT next to Majoras Mask as the worst (Nintendo) Zeldas and Mario64 just as average title. Even back in 1996.
Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 on the other hand are still fun for its Sonic and Tails levels and the Chao part.
Those games are still fun. Sure, they're dated but I can play them and still have a good time. With sonic, I get nothing like that.
Just realized all the captions in the game are in Comic Sans...
Cue megalovania
+TheSonicNinja no
spear of justice is better
This is Sonic Adventure 2, not Undertale. Don't be off topic.
Montero Ronald snes undertalll?
This game was my childhood
This game was my childhood too
that drowning music was scary as a kid
i dont understand? 1/3?
i understand that, but why would i only like a third of the video?
i finished all three story lines
Did you know that Rouge the Bat has jiggle physics in this game? It's true. When I saw it, I laughed for about 10 minutes straight.
Key Strix same xD
You mean you didn't immediately notice as a 12 year old whenever you'd play 2 player
I just noticed when I replayed the game a couple of days ago.
Its not impossible that the moon rotates towards the earth, since the synchronous rotation comes from the moon being slightly bent though earths gravity which makes it elliptical which also makes that the wider side of that ellipse is dragged more towards the earth which over millions of years made the moon rotate at the speed that it goes around the earth. So if one side was missing, the heavier, undamaged side of the moon would over time turn towards the earth. Correct me if im wrong.
This is EXACTLY what I thought! Very silly misstep imo!
+Thomi Also, the game's world isn't Earth so it's entirely possible that it works differently in that universe
as long as the games planet is an orb, same rule applies. Its simple gravity
My thoughts exactly - I had to stop the video right there just to see if anyone else caught this. Also, isn't it plausible that momentum transfer from the impact of the "eclipse cannon" caused the moon to begin rotating asynchronously?
Might be. I mean, it blew off half the side... depending on which side, it would also fasten/slow the moons orbit or even throw it out of it. But i think we wont be able to test this for a long while :p
Am I the only one around here that truly, genuinely liked this game? I can understand the love of the original 2D versions, and I understand the criticism of Sonic 06 and beyond, but this game is way different, I feel, and is in a class of its own in terms of Sonic games. I loved it, and if there happened to be a new game very similar in variable play style and feel (and pace, above-par control, etc) I would absolutely buy it.
+Hollow Tim hahaha...haaahahaha...AAAAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!!
+Michael J. Caboose I tried to like it. But someone needed to tell the cutscene guys to do their job properly, and never did.
I agree that out of all the 3D Sonic Games this one made my childhood. The game was legit fun and I never minded the cut scenes either. Even the Chao Garden made the game even more worth playing but out of how cute and fun it was to see what you could do with the chaos. It's like no matter what you learn more and more new things about them like discovering they're different personalities and such. People can say what they want but this is, in my opinion the BEST 3D Sonic Game to this day. Sega should bring back the chao garden.
+SladeLumn I know right? I liked Mario 64, but I can still admit, that it has a slew of issues. For one, Bowser battles.. I want to say this. There few times, I actually found a Bowser fight epic. I suppose, its because they always let you fight him early at least once.. So, no surprise? And one of my favorite Mario games is Super Mario World. It was pretty cool, but it didn't make me feel overwhelmed.
SladeLumn
Well, to be honest.. Super Mario World is one of my favorite games.. and yes, that final boss music is very epic.The fight itself is okay at best, and gives a lot of spectacle to make itself *feel* big, but unfortunately, its just the same previous two fights as before. I would say, Mario Sunshine, but that ended with Bowser in a bath tub.. So not very epic. I don't know. Maybe your battle with him in Super Marioh Bros Wii?
I love how nowadays Sonic is just the punching bag of the Internet Gaming industry and if you ever try to defend Sonic in any aspect you're just a "fanboy" In my opinion the Sonic fanbase isn't bad, it has the same flaws as any other fan base. It's just a fad now to hate Sonic simply because the Game Grumps, jontron, projared & others said so and now their fans "have" the same opinion. No hates towards those CZcamsrs, I often watch them a lot.
+Gothicslenderman My absolute favorite was when IGN gave Generations a 9/10, but then when back a little later and bashed it, calling it a bad game. Even the Sonic Twitter page called them out on their bull s***
+MeL the MMD User I couldn't agree with you more. As a Sonic fan, its depressing to see people act that way towards the franchise.
+Gothicslenderman What was interesting, is that not one of those CZcamsrs had an actually valid complaint unless its an obvious target, like Sonic 06 or Sonic Boom. The complaints they use, I could use the same way for games like Mario. A lot of people like to praise Nintendo, but some forget that a lot of their franchise's starting titles on the NES had issues. Super Mario Bros was a good game, but it has required exploration, and the game punishes you for not searching for power ups with harder gameplay. Zelda is an exploration game, with a different set of difficulties on finding out its significant secrets, and just finding out on rather if you are progressing through the game. Metroid suffers the same problem as Zelda where it rewards exploration, but you still have no clue if you are progressing through the game.
And finally, I can agree. The Sonic Fanbase is only bad, because the company listens to it completely. On its own, its no different from the Mario fanbase, Zelda Fanbase, or many other games fanbase.
+Mila Basset "Give the fans what they want." But what if they cannot agree on what they want?
Ultimafire1258 That, would be why I said, the company should not listen to its fans completely.
The best part about SA2 (or, the Dreamcast version of SA2) is the fact that you can find Big the Cat in almost every stage, just standing around. I used to think that it was just done as a joke, but there's a reason behind it.
Turns out, the director of the game was so angry about the negative response to Big that he took personal offense to it and decided to throw Big into random parts of the game as revenge.
Sadly, they were almost all scrapped from the Gamecube port (not sure about the PC and other ports of the game).
They're back in the PC port, I believe! Although it's been awhile and I need to check. But I'm pretty sure they're there.
1:20 THAT'S ME GETTING TAKASHI IIZUKA'S AUTOGRAPH!!!!!!! WHAT THE HECK?!?!?!
Is it really? That's pretty cool lol
@@shadow012333 Look at my stupid giddy face! lol We were all laughing when he got asked about the moon. That was such a fun day. But yeah it's weird to just be watching a video, trying to learn some facts about sa2 and out of nowhere see yourself next to Takashi Iizuka. He was super cool about signing people's stuff. We caught him, Kazuyuki Hoshino and Aaron Webber hanging around as everyone was leaving.
Its not stupid at all lol you met someone cool I would be giddy as well :b glad you have a memory recorded in history for the world to see xD
Your profile pic is a chao=best person ever
One of the best levels in Sonic history was inspired by by FLIPPING PEPSI MAN?!?

You sure those screenshots are from the beta version of SA2? Judging from the settings, these look like they were taken from the beta version of the first Sonic Adventure. Not the second.
Keiji Johnson Yep. Those are pictures of Speed Highway and Windy Valley. There are actual pics of Sonic with his normal shoes from the beta of SA2, but these guys messed up.
messed up embarassingly
imagine mistaking sa1 for sa2.....
Caught in 4k
Generations is a good game ... whatever.
Sonic 06 in the other hand ... has a more interesting backstory to it.
I'd love to know everything that went wrong with its development.
Look up Gaming Mystery's Sonic '06 Beta video.
Me too. Sonic Team isn't stupid. They knew this game wasn't ready for release. There are bits and pieces of the story out there, but I want to know the whole thing.
Sonic Generations' classic levels are insults to the Genesis games (Make the spinroll useless, why I oughta-).
+MyNewSoundtrack Good question. I found this article from another channel I followed. It's a bit of a long read, but it's very well researched and written.
andrearitsu.wordpress.com/2015/08/01/just-how-did-sonic-2006-happen/
+MyNewSoundtrack I think they were rushed to release the game.
Did you know? This game remains one of my favorite Sonic games of all time despite any of its faults (such as camera issues, minor glitches, etc.), which I still enjoy playing to this day. :D
My favorite game of all time (and no, it’s not just because of the speed stages or the Chao garden, or nostalgia, it’s because it’s an amazing game).
Who's favorite Sonic game is Sonic Adventure 2
Yes it is. Although Sonic Adventure DX was also pretty fun.
Both Sonic Adventure games are my childhood :D
Benjamin Hilario never played it but I hope to get the Sega forever version
Mine is shadow the hedgehog

I tried my best, but eventually I took the Gameshark option to unlock Green Hill in SA2B.
What's?
+TheCrazyNintendoMan ! Gameshark is a thing you can use to cheat a game.
Git gud, scrub.
+WalcomS7 It was the driving stages, wasn't it? Same thing happened to me...
+TheCrazyNintendoMan ! It's Game Genie.
PEPSIMAAAAAAAAN
Not gonna lie, i actually really liked the characters speaking over each other like that, made the game feel more real to me.
Loved this game as a kid and still do now! Sure it has issues, but it was the most mature Sonic story since the cartoon in the 90's, and Eggman was an actual threat! Plus, Sonic and Shadow's speed was just so perfect, and they were agile too!
We need a Sonic Adventure 3! :D
Full HD graphics, great speed sensation, our two favorite hedgehogs...
+David Y from a lot of reviews, its either decent or average... yeah this game has the most mixed opinion of any sonic game. idk if sa3 is coming sa2 was released on june 2001, its october 2015.... yeah sa3 aint coming out anytime soon.
+David actually the first sonic adventure had a deeper story, especially with omega's stage, i shid you not, if it were any more deep, i might of felt those manly tears again
+f45411 That was Gamma not Omega.
animeasskicker
they look identical, so i was always confused as to how he got into heroes, but that clears it up
f45411 They look similar, but Gamma is the skinny one and Omega looks fat. ^^
Stay away from black hedgehogs if you don't want to contract NIDS.
+Skullomaniaaaa *Y O U W I N*

+CrazyRiverOtter How on earth is that a win?
Reny Bryant It's a joke m8
hiiisssssssssssss
Sonic Generations gets my vote.
+cjszero01 YEH
+cjszero01 Personally I'd like to see '06 just to get some more research into what happened exactly during development. But it's your call. Also, how's the Sm4sh review coming along? Don't want to be rude. I'm just curious.
Agreed. Undoubtedly.

+cjszero01 Yeah!

+Anthony Millien Take Deez Nutz I'll set you free!
you know I see alot of people saying that oh it's not that great. But I actually enjoyed most of the game with the obvious sonic and Shadow levels I enjoyed most of the treasure hunting levels with the exception of the two spaced levels. and I really enjoyed tails and eggmans play style. so in my opinion it is a really great game just most people don't like the other parts because it's not Sonic
+Tristan Gray No, most people don't like the other parts because it's slow is comparison, it plays like crud and is utterly boring and full of filler.
+Jose Carmelo "most people don't like the other parts because it's *slow by comparison*"
Knuckles and Rouge. Slower by comparison. They run at almost the same exact speed as Sonic and Shadow, arguably faster since they have a lot more room to run around in. Mech shooters yeah, obviously slower, but if you're going to argue against other playstyles, don't make up facts to support your argument.
WritersBlah I said slow by comparison, not that the other characters are slower or faster than Sonic and Shadow. You cannot argue that the CORE GAMEPLAY for the Sonic and Shadow sections are more fast paced then the other two since you're not looking for any items, just reaching the exit as fast as you can and you cross a lot more ground in a shorter amount of time. You don't really feel as much forward progress, in a confined arena.
If you're going to argue against someone, make sure you have an actual point to make.
I understand your argument, but I respectfully disagree, and this is including mech shooting levels. The non-hedgehog stages are only as slow as you make them out to be, which for apparently many people, is considerably slow. The treasure hunting stages are synergized by Knuckles/Rouge's speed, and the search to grab all three shards is a hectic experience if you actually attempt to do it quickly. Careful use of gliding, drill drive, and attacking to increase your acceleration on the ground is a really demanding balancing act, but also an intensely satisfying experience. The spirit of a Sonic game lies not just in a goal, but in how you get to that goal, and within this, speed is a constant factor.
And heck, I think I actually appreciate the mech shooting stages more now than when I first played them. The clunky controls are a detriment, a barrier to hat the player is normally used to, but a mech''s top speed is still considerably fast, and making the challenge in trying not to lose that speed is what makes the levels so fun to play. Jumping and hovering to cut corners reduce the amount of speed lost becomes the name of the game.
I don't know, I think the gameplay of SA2 becomes a lot more fun and deep when you attempt to speedrun the game, and the game feels really optimized for speedruns, finding this really neat balance between being kept on your toes to improvise if you mess something up and outright speed, which is what the spirit of a Sonic game really embodies. Hell, you don't even need to go for an outright speedrun, have you ever tried A-ranking every mission in the game? That crap is so hard, but once you make that perfect run, you feel like you're on top of the world.
So to conclude, the game really is fast in all of its levels. I hate to phrase it like this, but it's just reliant on your ability to "git gud."
Didn't read lol.
I don't even care what anybody says this was the best game of my child hood.
Do Sonic '06, it's more interesting to hear about bad games' histories than good games.
Lol as if SA2 is a good game.
Bleck98534
I never mentioned SA2 at all, but yes it is.
SkaiCyan Well I assumed you were at least referencing SA2 considering you posted it on this specific video, but whatever. Second of all, SA2 was most definitely the worst 3D sonic game. The physics were god-awful, the story was horrendous at best , and of course the gameplay was nothing special either.
Bleck98534 Sonic Adventure 1 has worse physics, Heroes Colors and Lost World have worse stories, and Sonic Adventure has the exact same gameplay but less polished (since it's the first iteration) with the addition of fishing stages. With all these games having quantifiably worse aspects it's impossible for SA2 to be "the worst 3D Sonic game. This is to say nothing of Sonic '06 and Sonic Boom.
If you wanna troll, you're gonna have to try harder than that.
SkaiCyan Oh I'm sorry, I didn't realize that opinions were no longer subjective.
You name all these points to try and defend this 'game", yet you should try using this terminology. A turd might not be the smelliest turd, or the most liquefied turd; yet come judgement day its still a fucking turd.
Still freaked out over Sonics one giant eyeball
+Desasterific And the fact that he has 2 eyelids in it.
and that, assuming his eyeball has a normal form, there wouldn't be any space for his brain left. :P
+Desasterific What happens when he winkS?
I don't even wanna know! XD
Sonic is seen more of a cartoon(obviously) and the eyes are just that like in other cartoons in the 90's in Rayman Origins an Legends Rayman also has one eyeball
they didn't bother to separate them because it's easier to draw at the time and it became staple in Sonic's future designs
what the heck

Do you have some yourself? I've never been a skater so I would be afraid to grind on a rail with them haha.
Manual Danual I have a about 8 pairs. you can also use them to slide on ledges, benches, tables, bike racks, or painted curbs. I wasn't into skating either when i got my soaps, but a year later and im already skateboarding
8 pairs!!! Damn! Are you pretty good with them? So now you are into skateboarding because of the shoes huh? Pretty cool.
Manual Danual I would say im good enough to pull off a few tricks. sometime i have a hard time jumping on rails.
*Hears the SA2 theme.*

Great video and great voiceover by Jimmy!
I'd love to see SomeCallmeJohnny or ClementJ64 to do some work on DYKG in the future.
I also want to apologize to Jimmy for my previous comment. I came off very harsh and rude and I hope you can forgive me. I'm sorry, pal.
We don't need anymore negative comments in the comment sections.
Or ClementJ64
SolarstrikeVG Agreed! I'm gonna put that in my original comment as well.

HIDE THE KIDS
They say the worst thing about Sonic 06 is being a broken glitchy mess, I say it's for introducing Silver the Hedgehog.
*PEPSIMAN!!!*
I'm amazed that Shane is still able to find new pieces trivia for this game that I haven't already heard. DYKG is probably the only game trivia show where I genuinely didn't already know most of the things they include
People were excited for Sonic Boom? Did their mind changed after it launched!?
+A Bush The _early_ screenshots from the prototype that Big Red Button made before Sega forced them to remake the game from scratch on the Wii U looked really, really impressive. Almost like a sorta Jak And Daxter-ish game except with Sonic and for the "next-gen" consoles.
The final game pretty much killed the series for a lot of people.
***** Poor fans. O.o
Would you mind telling me how'd ya make that "early" word into a slope form?
+A Bush They were talking about the event "Sonic Boom", not the games or the show. Rise of Lyric didn't even exist in 2011.
A Bush Place an underscore "_" to the left and right of the word to make it _italic._ Hope it helps.
Edits: You can also use asterisks "*" to make words *bold.*
***** Aye thanks! *This*, -this-, and _this_.
The best Sonic game
My theory about the moon is that the moon rotated because of the push from the blast.
That is impossible, I am pretty sure, but that wouldn't be a bad explanation.

Good old Sonic Adventure 2, one of the few things that is both overrated and overhated
Egotapter fans, destroy his argument!
More like ProJared fans
+Kilo I have never heard of Egotapter. Is he a smug, annoying, ignorant, and hypocritical jerk like Egoraptor?
+Dracomut Indeed. It's not a perfect game (controls feel a bit loose and there's the obvious audio problems) but it's still quite a good one, and built on what Adventure 1 started in the blue blur's transition to 3D. I hope Sega makes an Adventure 3 now that they've done all this experimentation with different gameplay styles. (Knuckles needs that Werehog fighting albeit without any stretchy arms)
+Dracomut haha
OMG WHO CARES ABOUT THE MOON? I hate when everybody try to write a "canon storyline" in order to make sense
But look how disjointed and unfocused the Sonic franchise looks.
out of the top of my head, the Elder Scrolls series has the same canon since 1994, and its great.
Yason You yeah, but they still just a GAME
Some of the best in-game music in any game I've played. The songs on the Knuckles stages are absolutely incredible and so nostalgic.
Radical highway is also a big tune
I used to love this game as a kid on the GCN. The song on the first stage was awesome.
Anyone else want Sonic Adventure 3 already?!
+Apollo Sonic 06 is basically Sonic Adventure 3 in spirit
+Doom2Guy No it isn't.
+Doom2Guy never say that
+Tory Jefferson aka Tory got yo bitch in a headlock Yes it is. Structure: 3 characters with different play-styles and stories. First stage: A beach, whales, wall-running sequences, do I need to continue? Admit it, 06 was basically Adventure 3.
+Kaneki Ken There was a similar structure, but by that logic Sonic Heroes was Sonic Adventure 3.
There's a reason why the same side of the moon always faces the earth. The term is actually called *tidal locking*. Since the force of gravity increases as you get closer to the source, the half of the moon closer to the earth gets stretched toward the Earth in a big bulge. If the moon were spinning relative to Earth, this bulge would drag across the moon, creating a lot of internal friction, heating the moon up and slowing it down until it becomes tidally locked to one side.
Now, if the moon suddenly lost about half of its mass, a whole mess of complex things would happen. For one, angular momentum would need to be conserved, so the moon will start rotating much faster about its new center of gravity and the side of the moon facing Earth would change, breaking the tidal lock. The sharp edges along the flat end of the hemisphere would crack under the stress and collapse, compacting the moon into a sphere once again, albeit half the volume. The result would be a smaller, lumpy, sort-of-normal-looking moon in perhaps the span of a few months.
Even so, unless you had enough energy concentrated into one beam to gravitationally unbind half of the moon (somewhere on the order of 6 octillion joules, 6e28), the moon rock you'd blow off would just fall back into the moon and re-form into it in a short time. The moon would probably be a hot, molten mess for a while, but the end result is basically the same thing you started with - a round, grey moon.
Wow! I did not know all this about one of my favorite games. Awesome videos.
Sonic in fantasy world...
Dykg: why do moon move!?
just do an episode on the binding of isaac already
Did You Know?
Sonic Adventure 2 is outdated, and that's okay!
+The Tree's Apprentice Well, I didn't expected to find you here
BEN!!! YOU ARE ALIVE!
So, did you get re-planted?
did you know
that your a tree
Oh yeah. I look at this game and notice a lot of really glaring issues. (especially in cut-scenes, those are rather atrocious actually) But it's still one of my all-time favorite games, and nothing anyone can say can change that.
DID YOU KNOW THAT EGGMAN'S MOUSTACHE IS FAKE
yes
YIIIIIS
1:25 welcome to sonic the fucking hedgehog, impossible has been thrown out the window, where have you been?
my first and favorite sonic game
David Jimenez My first but not my favorite. I think Sonic the Hedgehog 2 carries that distinction, although Sonic Colors is very high on the list too.
I love this game and Sonic Adventure 1 to death, i can tell what made them flawed and why they didn't' age well but that doesn't stop me from loving them, call me nostalgia blind but to me those games hold a very special place in my heart , i don't care what haters say.
....and no i'm not a troll trying to start a flame war.
And i'm not a "Sonic Fanboy", sonic is one of my favourite series but is not my absolute favourite, i'm a Mega Man guy.
If you don't like the game that's fine but if you got a problem with me for liking it then fuck off. This isn't the game grumps channel so i can openly say what i like here, so no blind egoraptor followers allowed.
+pikminguy55 hell yeah
+pikminguy55 k
Just because something is technically badly designed doesn't mean that some people can't personally enjoy it.
it aged badly tbh
+pikminguy55 To be fair Mario 64 and Crash haven't really aged well and yet there still considered some of the best games period.
I liked how the characters cut each other off in the boss scenes it made it seem more confrontational.
So much for love for this game being tossed around here. It bring joy to my heart and a tear to my eye. Thank you, people of CZcams.
I'm very interested how 06 became such a glitchy messy.
+Alex Vazquez Sega rushed Sonic Team to meet a holiday release...technically it worked. They were rollin' in money lol
oh my god yes i wanna know why they fcked up lol
+Monado Boy (Flame Rock) Time constraints and rushed work
+Alex Vazquez I heard the story is like this: SEGA wanted to make a game for Sonic 15th anniversary for XBox, PS and Wii, but the team divided because the Wii was hard to work with, so the Xbox and PS versions had to work with an even smaller group of people, while Sonic 06 for the Wii was completely ditched in favor of Sonic: The Secret Rings. All of these games were completely late by the time of Sonic's 15th anniversary and Sega had to rush their release, but Secret Rings was too early in development for a release so they had to make a rushed port of Sonic's original game for the GBA. So two rushed games resulted 06' and Sonic Genesis, often seen as the two worst Sonic games prior to Sonic Boom, and a third underwhelming game came later because of Sega's lack of experience with the Wii that was quickly forgotten.
Then the story pretty much repeated itself with the Sonic Boom titles, Sega gave their IP to former Naughty Dog employees and Sanzaru Games that made some notable games (Sly Cooper for the PSP and the God of War collection), but BigRedButton's lack of experience with Sonic games and the Wii U in general resulted in a Crash Bandicoot game with a Sonic skin, and Sanzaru's lack of experience with Sonic and the 3DS altogether resulted in an incomplete game that was mediocre at best. And guess what? Both were ALSO rushed to market because of the TV show and Christmas time. I just hope that this time SEGA learned their lesson that
+Alex Vazquez I read that they had to develop a new Sonic game for the upcoming PS3, and because of the developers' inexperience with the new hardware (and the fact that they had to make the game multi-platform late in development) the game ended up having many technical problems. And Sega wanted to release the game for the series' 15th anniversary even though it wasn't really finished yet. And one half of sonic team was busy working on the mess that was Secret rings for the Wii.
ive seen a sega building as I was driving through san fran before
I love it when SEGA Buildings drive ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
le watt?
+SonicMan X I love you
No, the Bear corrected itself!
SonicMan X thx man for looking out
I love this channel, you got yourself a new subscriber. ;)
I can still play the hell out of SA1, SA2, and Heros. Those game were so fun to me growing up, and even more when I started getting better with score attacking. You know your good at sonic games when you are close to the top of the stage on most maps.
With the moon rotating fact, the synchronous rotation only works because of the moon's mass. If the moon's mass decreased by about 33% let's say, it's orbit around the earth would be about 33% faster to conserve angular momentum. Also not accounted for is the slight shift in orbit due to the laser impact. I'm actually curious how much this would affect the moon's orbit now.
With the crazy world of Sonic, I wouldn't be surprised if someone went up there and rebuilt it.
That Sonic X arc was based on the Sonic Adventure 2 plot, so technically yes.
Well since g = (M1 * M2) / r^2, and the M of the moon has decreased significantly, the force of gravity bwtween the two objects is significantly weaker. It might just make the moon fly out of regular orbit.
Not to mention what destroying half of it did to the tides
BEST SONIC GAME EVER
Loved this game But I Found out about alot of these in game Great Video!!
Favorite sonic game, so many damn memories as a kid
DYKGaming PEPSI MAN EDITION. PLEASE MAKE ONE ON PEPSI MAN
Sonic Adventure 2 is the best Sonic game for me. Hands down! It created a certain feel for me. After that, Sonic started to die...I mean Sonic Heroes and Generations were cool, but they didn't have that feel...I just wish SEGA would go back to using the same engine they used on SA2...shit they even admitted the past few Sonic games have been fails...
Daiyaan Sutton Sonic Adventure 2 is a fan favorite what are you talking about
I love this game and it is my favorite Sonic game to this day!
Had this on sega Dreamcast , 18 years later and I still never unlocked green hill zone lol
PEPSI MAN
+DrakeVagabond Don't you mean PEPSIIIIIII MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN
I love(d) this game. Picking up powers ups, going back to old stages with the power ups to find new power ups, playing all the different mission (collect 100 rings, find the lost chao ect) all gave the stages such replay ability... Not to mention the best reason to play a stage ... Getting the right chaos drives and animals for your chao... Chao races and Chao karate were so fun... O how I wish these would all return
Yes, but when 2/3 of the game is awful, the game doesn't have anything going for it except the Chao Garden, which makes you replay levels, meaning you replay the good levels (AKA, not any of Rouge's, Knuckles', Tails', or Robotnik's stages)
0:58 i dont know why im commenting this but that comic hit me with so much nostaligia, 7 year old me on holiday in new zeland as a devote sonic fan, finding that exact comic in a store, not sold here in england. still have that comic right behind me :D
Starting a video with Live and Learn really sets a good mood.
Welcome to the early club, how early are you?
Please don't
+Assailant XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!
+Assailant it is currently 4:09 AM
That's how early I am
I am five minutes after u
+Assailant it is 4:09 pm
0:48 Is that... Comic Sans??
PixelPickaxe Yup, looong before they been overused
3:13 > References to SF in SA2
I got to visit SF during an annual air show called Fleet week, where they have jets doing tricks over SF Bay and aircraft carriers supporting them. This is likely the inspiration behind Metal Harbor.
Everyone knows Prison Island is Alcatraz, but Green Forest and White Jungle are more likely based on the headlands and Redwood Forests on the North side of the Golden Gate bridge.
How interesting the comics expands a lot of these. Never knew evil Bunny rabbot had them.
This weeks exciting episode of Did You Know Gaming - Autism Adventure 2
+AndreFTW Make me breh, fight me, no katanas
+kofficakes no offense dude but it's literally 2015
Did you know...? This game is over hated.
electroamp IT IS UNDERRATED!!! THIS IS THE BEST SONIC GAME OF ALL TIME AND I HAVE PLENTY OF REASONS WHY!!!
List 10 valid reasons.
Did you know the treasure hunting levels and mech shooting levels are actually horrendous? These levels are filled with shit controls, shit level design, and a shit camera.+
Viewtiful Z no. The treasure hunt stages were fair enough.
No they weren't. Knuckles and Rouge are way too fast, the camera is horrendous, and the radar is awful when it was just fine in Adventure 1
Wow, this video actually gave me some new information on one of my favorite game!
Thank You guys!!!☆
This game had a fucking excellent soundtrack, there's only a few games that I would ever buy a soundtrack for, but I woulda have bought this one for sure.
People actually went on an event for Sonic Boom?...WOW they must have regretted that!
the event isn't based of Sonic Boom Game/Show it's something completely different.
RicKo5896 And that is?
It's a Sonic event that just happens to be called Sonic Boom. I don't know what the event is for though.
Rabbit OST OH...Well...you can understand why I misunderstood! :p
+TheBlueArmageddon Sonic Boom is: The name of a cartoon, an event, two games, two songs in the franchise and a street fighter move
Sonic Generations, please! (who actually cares about Sonic 06).
Sonic 06 has more story to it's development.
+Pac Fan yeah but y'know... part of that story has a human making out with a hedgehog.
He was talking about development, not story
+Taylor Lee I care!
+Pac Fan thats not always a good thing... especially in this case
the parking ticket thing, really cracked me up
so relatable- i'd do that too if i was a game designer
Well... Halloween is around the corner, so we need something scary. Sonic 06 takes my vote!
Id like to see sonic 06 done
+Dailybantam That wouldn't be that bad, actually. One of the worst sonic games, but that doesn't mean you can't know more about it or the development behind it.
+Lord Tullus 9 yea, I have the game on the 360. The game just takes an assload of practice to actually be smoothly playable and somewhat enjoyable
+Dailybantam Yeah, sad that it was rushed because it can look good when your not playing it.
So...
WHAT THE FUCK IS A SONIC?
And the tickets jokes on SA2, lmao
+TakeshiDS I understood that reference.
lol i remember that
+TakeshiDS Jontron Fan...
+TakeshiDS A MISERABLE LITTLE PILE OF SECRETS!
Finally a DYKG video on my favorite Sonic game.
I would love to a Let's play of this game on my channel.
That line of chao code regarding Amy could be a leftover from sonic adventure 1. Or even something that was left in there so chaos that have been raised by Amy in SA1 would keep their stats when transferred to SA2.
