I've been watching Sonic R vids lately. I was curious what others think of this game. Its an either you love it or hate it game. Personally I like it not a fan of the music though.

What are are your opinions?(On either the PC or Saturn version).

-Please respect others opinions. <---in case of debate :P

I played the PC version. I actually kinda liked the game, it's not too bad when you understand the controls a bit, but the movement is clunky. I finished the game 100% and would sometimes play it -- I don't recall for what reason.

It has nice music.

Got this with sonic gems. My Opinion, it really needs a sequel or another game that plays exactly lit it(not Rivals). Also, they need to add vocals again to.

I'm surprised you like the music a ton of people complain about it. I personally don't mind it I'm just not a an of euro-pop. I also think the controls can use a little help especially on the Saturn version.

I totally agree with you I would love to see a "Sonic R 2" with more characters and improved controls. This was there first 3D racer I'm sure they would make a better one with there knowledge now :)

wow, i literally just hooked up my saturn this evening to play this.
this game is an excellent racing game.
i found amy rose to be the most awful excuse of a racer though.
finding some of the emeralds and still trying to stay in first is quite difficult if you ask me.

my favorite racers are sonic, metal sonic and egg robo.
you know, i thought of something today.
sonic in the title screen resembles the modern look as apposed to his in game look.
this could have been a sign for some people of the new look ahead.

Yep, Amy is pretty bad. I do admit I like how she has a car though (probably faster on foot from chasing Sonic around so much). Knuckles looks especially modern in then the title screen.

I object to your claims
I kind of like it. I mean, it's a neat little time waster, but from the little I've played of Sonic and Sega's All Stars Racing, the latter seems like the superior title. ;)

Sonic R was fun while it lasted, but it's incredibly easy.

Music was great, tho'. Diamond in the Sky is beautiful.

Kinda, yeah.

It's got some songs about love, optimism, yearning, and Super Sonic Racing.
You know what I wanna hear?

I violin rendition of Starlight Zone. Dunno why, but it sounds like it would be cool.

I still can't use this.

I'm still amazed that the general consensus of the soundtrack has so radically flipped in recent years. I'm still in the mindset that it's expected to hate the crap out of it, especially the vocalist, but something has happened that has left me in the dust in that regard. X.x

As for my opinion on Sonic R, a sensible idea marred by terrible execution. The racers are unbalanced, the turning is unnecessarily difficult, and the challenges are non-existent. Riders 4evar. =P

Once the monster has his fun
Take heed, it's not too late
Mistakes needn't haunt you forever
Though you have regret, you can't just forget
You alone decide your fate

Sonic R's a great game in its own respect. My CD broke a while ago, and my Windows 98 comp did too, and I lost Gems, so no more of Sonic R for me, sadly.
Oh my gosh, you guys remember the Sonic Retro poll about how to turn strongly? Most people didn't know about it.
