Bruh We should give credit to Sonic Team for the Name of the levels like Starlight Zone, Radical Highway, and Stardust Speedway. I just really love those names
The Chemical Plant Zone will always be my #1 fav. *Yes the level with the death purple water.* Btw I want to point out that you were mentioning how bad water levels were before Hydrocity, but in my opinion Tidal Tempest is hella underrated in terms for a water level.
Not sure about the order but my top ones! Hilltop zone Mystic cave zone Chemical plant zone Flying battery zone Ice cap zone Hydro city zone Mushroom hill zone Stardust speedway Lava reef zone Angel island zone
Ok so my top 10 zones are... 10: Death Egg (Sonic 3K) 9: Hydrocity (pronounced as hydrocity, and not as hydro-city) 8: Starlight 7: Angel Island 6: Studiopolis 5: Mushroom Hill 4: Titanic Monarch 3: Mirage Saloon 2: Quartz Quadrant 1: Launch Base Zone
The zone's I hate in sonic 3 part 1 are from angel island to carnival night. Ice cap and Launch base are the only good zones in sonic 3 For Sonic 3 and knuckles it's Flying battery, Mushroom hill and Death egg . The rest of the levels in s3k are mediocre, sandopolis isn't terrible either but act 2 can be a nightmare.
@@VampireA1056 No , there is much worse , try playing Sonic 2 on the Sega Master System , I doubt that you would pass Gimmick Mountain Zone or Scrambled Egg Zone .
@@Peter-vk6hx I agree, people always debate what game is the real sonic 4 but since Mania is the 4th major 2d game besides CD, Mania would really be sonic 4. Sonic CD is kinda sonic 1.5, 2.5, or 3.5, depending on how you see it within the timeline.
Press Garden Zone is one of my favorites. It's one of if not the most beautiful looking stages in a 2D Sonic game yet. I love the calm colors and the relaxing music. The only part I don't like is trying to fight the act 2 boss as a single character since it's difficult unless you're playing as Sonic and Tails together.
“Whenever there’s a water level in a Sonic game, it’s complete garbage!” Tidal Tempest says hello. :) I’m aware you aren’t counting Sonic CD stages in this video though. Jokes aside, I very much respect this selection. I especially liked that you included many of my favorites, such as Mystic Cave, Ice Cap, and Star Light. *Blue Blurs for Life!*
Ranking s1 levels from best to worst. 1. Scrap Brain 2. Star Light 3. Green Hill 4. Marble 5. Spring Yard 6. Labyrinth is the worst zone in this game but if it was all classic levels then carnival night would be the worst level on this list. launch base is tied with scrap brain for the 1st 2 acts excluding act 3 Labyrinth zone can take that burden.
Yeah me it shoulda been number #1 But this youtuber is not a hardcore 2d sonic fan and if he could hardly pass the second level on mist 2d sonic games I doubt he collected all 14 emeralds on sonic 3 and knuckles
You only need to collect 7 Emeralds to reach Doomsday Zone, The Super Emeralds just makes it more epic. Imagine if this was a Top 30 list of zones & it included GameGear Zones in addition to CD & the Advance Games.
I'm angry that so many people hate scrap brain but I'm happy that every one hates labyrinth. Scrap brain is the best and labyrinth is the worst,scrap brain zone act 3 done terribly.
My own list: 10. Spring Yard Zone Level design’s a bit rough but I still had fun with it; and it has my favorite song and visuals in the game. 9. Wing Fortress Zone I’ve always enjoyed the triumphant feeling music, and the raising of stakes and difficulty. 8. Chemical Plant Zone I never get tired of almost running off-screen in the speed sections. And the music might be my favorite in the game. 7. Hydrocity Zone (3 and Mania) Essentially the same points you had in the video. 6. Death Egg Zone (Sonic 3) The music of this zone plays in my head consistently, without fail. And the level design always threw me a curveball, but in a way I felt was fitting. The final bosses are probably favorites of mine in the series. 5. Titanic Monarch Zone When I first saw the name of this zone, I legit got chills. And the level itself lives up to the name. I still adore speedrunning the level. 4. Marble Garden Zone This is probably one of the weirder picks (besides spring yard). A lot of people don’t seem to like this level but I personally adore it. It’s one of the more consistently fast and difficult levels for me. And the music is very likely my 2nd favorite in the game. 3. Doomsday Zone This counts as an individual zone right? Like I said, the final boss one of my favorites in the series. And the song is a one of the best in the game imo. I especially love the detail of the song speeding up when you’re under 10 rings. 2. Studiopolis Zone This level is STYLISH. The music is my favorite in the game, and I love the way they handled the visuals. 1. Flying Battery Zone (Sonic 3) This has been my favorite zone of the classics for a long time. I love finding a way to swiftly maneuver around the punishing level design. The music is my favorite in the game, and one of my favorites in the series. I think I enjoy the music better in Sonic 3 than in Mania, because I feel like they added a bit much.
I’d have my top 10 as 1- metallic madness mania 2- stardust speedway mania 3- angel island 4- flying battery mania 5- studiopolis 6- ice cap 7- green Hills mania 8- chemical plant 9- emerald hill 10- mirage saloon
Remember me doing my list on the best 3d stages? no? ok. Here's my list: 10. Green Hill 9. Sky Chase 8. Wing Fortress 7. Flying Battery 6. Chemical Plant 5. Hidden Palace (Sonic 2) 4. Lava Reef 3. Sky Sanctuary 2. Ice Cap 1. Star Light I'm not copying you. These are the ones that had the best level design and fun in my opinion
#10. Titanic Monarch #09. Studiopolis #08. Marble Garden #07. Angel Island #06. Ice Cap #05. Sky Sanctuary #04. Starlight #03. Mystic Cave #02. Hill Top #1. Green Hill
Yeah me too but my favorite zone is Scrap Brain zone, it's faster than marble but slower than green hill, those traps and gimmicks are super cool even though the flames are a little cheap
Ok I stop- Yeah Stop Now there’s actually 10 zones which is the best zone I like Our Studiopolis won’t be here cuz now, I think different, but yeah I mean it’s not gonna be top 1 my fav anymore lol but it’s still on the list
here is some nostalgia for me from sonic 1,2 and three, dying from game over in carnival night act 2 because of the barrel of doom, not being able to get past chemical plant act 2 because of the rising water part, thinking I needed all chaos emeralds in sonic 2 in order to have rings for the death egg man they were the times
Don’t forget never making it past death egg. Getting shocked the first time you unlocked Hyper Sonic. Trying so hard to get the super emeralds. Giving up at Labyrinth. Good times
For me not so much what I hate about Ice cap is the swings in act 1 and the spiky iceballs. For my best s3 level it's definitely Launch base its so fast paced and the music is catchy, way better than the other 5 zones before it and carnival night is the worst.
For my top 15 favorite classic zones 15. Spring Yard Zone (Cuz I love the music) 14. Green Hill Zone 13. Aquatic Ruins (Love the music environment 12. Palmtree (Good future n Music Japanese Version) 11. Stardust Speedway (Good future n Music Japanese Version) 10. Chemical Plant 9. Flying Battery Zone 8. Mirage Saloon 7. Angel Island Zone 6. Mushroom Hill (Intro to where Knuxs hind his emeralds and season changes was cool imo) 5. Lava Reef Zone (Love the music, background, and transition to Hidden Palace) 4. Titanic Monarch 3. Press Garden Zone 2. Ice Cap Zone 1. Hydrocity Zone
For my top 12 best classic zones 1. Scrap Brain (Act 1 and 2) 2. Star Light 3. Mushroom Hill 4. Launch Base 5. Flying Battery (S3&k) 6. Metropolis 7. Casino Night 8. Chemical plant 9. Green Hill 10. Emerald Hill 11. Death Egg (S3k) 12. Metalic Madness
@@chillihog1543 Scrap brain zone is my favourite because act 1 and 2 have epic level design, you can gain speed from flywheels, tubes and conveyor belts and the traps make this level a satifying challenge but the big issue is that the levels in sonic 1 are too short and scrap brain only has 2 acts technically the act that i like the most.
@@chillihog1543 Starlight would've gotten 1st place if it was longer, green hill would've gotten 1st place if not for act 3 and plus its kind of boring since it shows up in way too many sonic games, Metropolis is so high on my list due to the steep inclines and bring back elevators, conveyor belts and flywheels from scrap brain, it could been better than scrap brain but the enemy place ment and spikes are an issue, its also 5 times longer than scrap brain.
This video is factually incorrect Matthew. It did not include the objectively best Sonic zone, Windmill Isle Act 4, which would totally fit every qualification for a zone in the video. You did include Hill Top Zone tho which is pretty based.
My list 10:Angel Island 9:Hydrocity 3 and k 8:Green Hill S1 7:Star Light 6:Hill Top 5:Mystic Cave 4:Casino Night 3:Ice Cap 2:Sky Sanctuary 1:Chemical Plant S2
you're hate for marble zone is misunderstood both greenhill and marble zone are meant to teach you different mechanics of the game. marble is all about learning how to platform as sonic. as a kid I hated it but as an adult I understand what they were trying to do
Top 5 I enjoy playing these days: 1. Lava Reef - Sonic 3&K 2. Sky Sanctuary - Sonic 3&K 3. Hidden Palace / Mystic Cave - Sonic Origins 4. Starlight Zone - Sonic 1 5. Death Egg - Sonic 3&K Worst ever: 1. Marble Zone - Sonic 1 2. Labrinthe - Sonic 1 (Mainly because of the boss) 3. Sandopolis - Sonic 3&K 4. Carnival Night - Sonic 3 5. Marble Garden - Sonic 3
NOTE: this comment is very long)my list for zones/levels STH1 spring yard, star light, scrap brain(it's fun that's if ur taking the highest/ fastest path) STH2 emerald hill(this zone is so fast pace) I speed ran it and my fastest was 0:28) chemical plant aquatic ruins(it's a 7/10 for me because its this badnick that just POPS out of the middle of no were from a wall and if it wasn't so hard to get to the highest/fastest path other then that its really fun) mistic cave ( that level is actually really great)STHCD stardust speedway( its so fun) STH3&K&K&K&K&K&K&K lol launch base ( i dunno the music is just " GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO" heck they should have made that the sonic x intro) ice cap (it should really be called fire cap because its just fire and i love it ) hydrocity (i.. I'm,,, speechless ) now to adventure ( I'm only gonna do adventure1 and 2 since its the only two) SA1 emerald coast( great opening stage) speed highway( 9/10 only because the controls get so gotdatn slippery thank god/Allah for D-pad controls) SA2 city escape( beuase lets face, thats like the best stage in the game) metal harbore (this level overrated, the speed section after that lil homing attake chain really shows how slower sonic goes in this game unlike SA1 and thats the reasons I'm not a huge fan of SA2) lets go modern ( i only gonna do sonic unleashed, generations, and forces since its the only ones i played so fare) apotos act 2( this level is so great its litterly a icon) rooftop run day act one( do i even need to say how good this is) cool edge day act 1, adabat day act 1, i cant believe i typing this but empire city act 1, for sonic generations, all zone except green hill seaside hill and planet wisp(plane wisp because to much platforming its like marble zone all or again, green hill as much as i hate to admit it i actually like green hill its just SO annoying that they keep using it over and over again just stop, and seaside hill because to open world now a n on world game is great, but with boost gameplay, eww no) last but not least, forces morter canyon, lumanus forest, and all the shadow levels. well that are all m favorite zones/levels hope like bye
Sonic Mania is the perfect Sonic game in my opinion. That said, if I could make one change to it, I would replace Lava Reef Zone with Starlight Zone. Both to even out the number of zones represented from each game, and because Starlight Zone really deserved to be represented.
8:50 he says it as if this was the first time we could fight as Super Sonic. Also I find that fight to be rlly underwhelming. And for the wrong reasons. However, it’s a fight where Super Sonic is no longer invincible
I kinda would NOT count Sonic Mania as a Classic ame because it's not made in the 90's and isn't on any of Sega's consoles , so I think that Sonic Mania should be in a "*Neo* Classic game" category
I like ice cap so much because I spent like a year trying to get past carnival night. And was rewarded with this. So to this today carnival night is my most hated classic sonic level and ice cap is my favorite classic sonic level. And before you say i suck at games or something i was like 5 or 6 now i can beat eggmanland with an S rank almost every time.
I love all casino/penball levels in sonic I thank that they should make a sonic game that's just like classic sonic games except with pinball slots all though them. And also one of my favorite sonic games of all time is sonic the hedgehog 2 expeshely level 4 the casino level. One classic sonic level that I like just as much as casino levels. is the first level in sonic and knuckle's mushroom hill.
Labyrinth zone should be number 1 because it’s super fun not use sonic main attraction momentum and be in tight spaces where u have to worry about drowning
