Sonic 3D: Flickies' Island - 7 Emeralds Playthrough

Описание: The title might say Sonic 3D: Blast, but here over in England it was known as Sonic 3D: Flickies' Island.

There does seem to be a lot of hate for this game out there, I actually prefer it to both Sonic 2 and CD, which seem to be the most popular.

I'll start with what I do like about this game.
The music being the first. Most of the tracks are pretty good, but I particularly like the Panic Puppet music (both acts).
The level design is also pretty good in my opinion, but aesthetically I'm not a whole fan of the chess board style of the first three levels.
I think they did a decent job for the console it was on. I had problems with controls slightly, but that was more down to controlling a 3D game intended to be played with a D-Pad with an Analogue Stick. Not having Super Sonic is kind of disappointing, as well as no playable Tails/Knuckles. Some fans like this, but I felt Sonic 3 & Knuckles was made the best Sonic BECAUSE of their addition. The extra routes / individual play style made that game, and it's a shame to have it missing.

I don't find having to collect Flickies annoying as such, it's just a pain to recollect them when you get hit (particularly the Red ones).

Another small thing I like is the homing attack you get with the Orange Shield (I think it was called the Blast Shield?)
It makes it a lot easier to hit enemies, that can be awkward to judge some times.
The 7 Emeralds are easy enough to get. They're probably only harder than the Blue Spheres for me (other than games that give you them as story progression).
Whilst there's no Super Sonic, you need all 7 Emeralds to unlock the Final Fight. It's an interesting final boss, not because it's hard, but because there's 5 different (although relatively easy) phases to it. Most final bosses after this seem to be either one or two phase bosses that get a bit harder the more you damage you do to it (see Sonic Adventure 1&2).

So next weekend.
More Rage I guess is the clue?

I've also finally recorded a couple of parts of a few games.
I've recorded three parts of FarCry 4 and definitely will be doing this starting Monday, but I was also thinking of doing another game one or two nights a week Diablo III: Reaper of Souls or Sonic Boom. Whatever you guys would prefer really!
Diablo III would probably just be one long video on a Wednesday, whereas Sonic Boom would probably be Tuesday and Thursday maybe. Not entirely sure!
