Version 1. I do love the second one, but you just can't top the memes that the original blessed us with. Plus, it's a bit more "wholesome" which I like.
Cats or dogs? -

Ugh, this is hard. As someone who has both, I think I will have to say both.
The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog or SatAM? -

Definitely Saturday AM. Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog is just too goofy and pscyhedelic for my tastes. There are definitely some things I like about it, such as their Christmas special or some of the Sonic Sez shorts. But overall, I personally think Sonic Saturday AM was far superior. It has such a cool, retro cartoon vibe to it that's very nostalgic of other shows from that era. Most importantly, it just tells a fantastic story with fantastic characters. It definitely gets pretty dark, but overall I feel it is far closer to being true to the source Sonic material than Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog. I also really enjoy all the Freedom Fighter characters for the most part, aside from a few episodes that were pretty weird (like Rotor with the very thinly-veiled sex jokes/storyline in one episode).
Final Rush or Final Chase? -

Since I've never played Sonic Adventure 2, I will have to say neither.
Sonic Spinball or Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine? -

I don't like either one that much because I'm dreadful at both, but I will Mean Bean Machine because it is fun to play with friends and has some great music.
Country music or hip-hop? -

I'm not even sure if I have ever listened to Hip-Hop music. I think I'll just go with Country music.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl or Super Smash Bros. Melee? -
RE: This or That

Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I know a lot of people prefer Melee, but Brawl is the one I grew up playing the most and have the most nostalgia for. I loved all the content and modes it had, a lot of the music remixes it brought and just its overall musical and aesthetic style for Brawl-specific songs and imagery. Ultimate definitely supersedes it as my favorite Smash game though.
Sailing the ocean or exploring a forest? -

As one who is used to hiking, I will choose a forest. It's probably because there is a lot more variety in forests unlike oceans which seem like an endless body of water.
2D or 3D platformers? -

That's definitely understandable. I love both, but I would personally have chosen the ocean as I inexplicably feel at home around large bodies of water in a fundamental way. Especially the ocean. The vast, endless nature of it intrigues me and causes me to ponder what lay beyond the horizon.
I definitely have to pick both 2D and 3D platformers: I love both so much equally in different ways. I definitely grew up much more with 3D platformers, but grew to love 2D platformers just as much when I was older. Sonic is definitely my favorite game series of all time, and is also the perfect example of both genres done wonderfully. I love the mystery and intrigue of 2D Sonic games (both the Classic Era, as well as 2D games from the Modern Era). The 2D environment encourages such aesthetics by its nature of having to show so many fascinating elements from a distance, such as background areas that are never directly accessible. I always love pondering who or what may reside hidden amongst the mysteries of each zone. 3D Sonic games are just an absolute joy with the depth and detail of immersion and experience: one of countless examples that comes to mind is Cosmic Fall from Shadow the Hedgehog, how immersive and emotional that level is across the union of visual and musical aesthetic driving the nature of gameplay. In conclusion, both in terms of gameplay and aesthetics I simply love too much about both 3D and 2D platforming to pick one over the other: I dearly love both equally, in different ways and for different (but often similar) reasons.
Pokemon Crystal or Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver? -
RE: This or That
Infinite > 09-28-2020, 09:09 AM
I've never played Pokemon Crystal but I do have a funny story about SoulSilver. So I believe I got it for Christmas many years ago and I had a ton of fun with it. The problem with the game was it would crash every time I would use the move Waterfall making it difficult to progress further into the game. Few years later when I was chatting with a cousin of mine about it, he told me what I had was probably a fake. So technically I haven't played SoulSilver either but I'm just going to go with that anyway.
Batman or Superman?
