Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 1

[Sega Uranus]

The only problem with the Sonic 4 music is that a lot of it is missing the badass edge that a lot of classic Sonic music had. It's why the Mad Gear tracks are considered the best. Because those tracks actually have the Sonic quality to them.

There's a nostalgia factor as well. Not ALL classic songs were good and memorable. Some were just passable.

Name one.  8-)

But I like the Lost Labyrinth music the best... One of the acts has some of the most enjoyable Sonic music I've heard... Can't remember which one.

If you cannot remember, then it must not have been that good to begin with!

What does me not remembering which of the three acts it was set too have to do with how much I enjoyed the music... Nothing what so ever.

The fact that you just pointed out you remember which zone it was, but are too lazy to find which act of three it is pretty much proves my point that it must have not been as good as you claimed.

But that is a great image!

I'm not saying it's bad. It's just...normal.. lol The games have incredibly amazing songs, but not all of them are so good.

Well, to be fair, unless Ryan saved all the leaked music months ago and cataloged them correctly (I remember the files had funky titles) he has no way of listening to all three acts to compare, as only act 1 has been officially released and youtube files are quickly deleted.

I liked the act 2 music the most, which oddly enough is the Strange Mine Cart theme song.

That proves nothing what so ever... you are talking out of your arse.
I don't have access to the leaks anyway, I saw them about a week ago but they are gone from youtube now.

[Sega Uranus]

To be fair? What? Come on guys...

I assume if most people heard a song from a game franchise they liked a lot (in this case, talking about it daily) and better than almost anything in the entire series that they would remember if it was Act 1, 2 or 3. It is all constantly on YouTube every day too probably. If you are too lazy to even attempt to look it must not be that great.

[Barry the Nomad]

Give the guy a break, the game isn't out and the leaked music is hardly a click away. You can't fault Ryan for not pausing mid-sentence to dig up a torrent file, download it and specify if he liked act 1, act 2 or act 3. It's just a silly thing to argue about.

[Sega Uranus]

Whatever, you guys are really hopeless with this stuff so I will not even argue about anything on this game anymore. It cannot be that hard to remember a number if it is one of your favorite things of one of the biggest game franchises of all time, can it?

It's a hard theme to forget and pretty much synchs really well with the level. It's anything but normal, it stands out as a pretty different song amongst a lot of platformers out there.

As for Sonic the Hedgehog 4's music, I am not sure why they even bothered to make the songs that way, if they were going for classic Mega Drive sounding music, at least do it like Mega Drive music. Otherwise might as well update it like everything else (Something I would have prefered, as well as having proper 3D graphics)

To clarify what I said earlier....

I never said I hated the Sonic 4 soundtrack. I quite like it actually. But the only problem is that some of it does not sound like "Sonic music".

And yes, Lost Labyrinth Act 2 is my favorite Lost Labyrinth track, but only because you can actually hear the bass compared to every other song in the game.

Uranus, buddy, chill. Look at what you two are arguing about.

I'm just saying that for all the arguments that go on around here, this one is extremely petty. It isn't even about the game itself, It's a non-argument: "Which act music did Sharky like and why didn't he bother to search for it to tell us the exact one". Does anybody care? Is that what constitutes argument material around here?

I don't find it that amusing. It's not "pretty different" either, Super Mario World on the Gameboy had a very similar song years before.

Personally I'd like the music to be more like Sonic CD. Honestly I haven't given much attention to 4's music, it could be more enjoyable in my opinion, though I think it's fine. Updating it wouldn't be a bad idea either.
As for 3D graphics, I don't agree. 2D games should have 2D graphics. I like how it looks better.

Yeah. Have you met me or Sharky before? We both always have to be right, it is why we have SEGA sites and are not actually off right now playing some games.

WTF?

...WTF?

We will be hearing about the new Sonic 4 improvements tomorrow:

But the good news doesn’t end there. After a poll conducted on the Sonic 4 forums, we have decided to begin releasing additional information about the other changes we’re making to the game directly to everyone in the community, which will be posted exclusively here on the SEGA Blogs and the Sonic Blognik!

To further that excitement:  the first blog listing some of these new changes will be arriving tomorrow.
