    This is a childhood game for me that I got for my fourth birthday. Somehow, I remember getting it too. There is so much i could say about this game and how good it is, but I'll restrain myself. I kind of wisb you talked about the art style, though, because the art style in this game is so damn good. The solid color shadows with the lines and the overall chalk aesthetic looks so good and matches the tone of the game so well.

  • @quinnholleman1547
    @quinnholleman15474 ай бұрын

    I played this game so much as a kid and it's such an underrated racing game. I'm always slightly baffled when I look at the reviews because most of them were very mixed, not because the game was bad, but because it's so unconventional and has a steep learning curve which is such a dumb reason to lower a game's score because yes, it is NOT beginner friendly, but once you get a handle of the controls and mechanics, it is one of the most fun racing games that makes you fight for first place and when you get it, you've earned it. I love MK8, I've played that game so much, but I quickly reached a point where I could win almost any race without trying all that hard, but I don't think I could ever get to that point with Sonic Riders and I love it for that. This is absolutely one of my favorite racing games ever.

  • @ThisisTheUltimate

    Long text ahead: I love Sonic Riders gameplay, it feels so satisfying and it is so good to play, while I do love the other Sonic racing series such as the "All-Stars" trillogy (All-Stars Racing, Transformed and TSR), the Riders series still is my favorite probably (but both are on the same level of quality, both coexisting is really nice and gives variety, especially since both are equally good) Sadly, as much as you said the game is not overcomplicated, it gives you the right amount of control and mechanics, for most people, especially in 2006, that was not the case, while I do still love Zero Gravity as much as I love Sonic Riders, I gotta agree with everyone on the internet, the controls really got a lot simpler While the rail problem you mentioned was fixed by making you only having to jump on the rail and not press the jump button twice, other things were also simplified along with that, the trick system was totally destroyed, both parts are not totally gone, for the jumping part, instead of having to hold for the amount of time, you just need to press the button at the tip of the ramp, the jump has no charge, while the ranks are determined by where you jumped out of the ramp The drift was also completly removed and to take turns into the track you just need to use the Gravity Control, which is sad, since the drift from Riders is so good, while I love the Gravity Control, especially for things that aren't taking turns on the track, such as running on walls, breaking walls to get new paths, and reaching higher paths, I hate it replacing the drift One thing I like about ZG over the original game is the Upgrade System and how it makes choosing your Extreme Gear so much more fun, in OG Riders it doesn't feel like you have much reason to choose a different Extreme Gear, just using the one from your character is good enough, unless you want a Gear to look cool, in ZG there is a whole strategy to choosing your gear, you can choose a gear to alternate beetween all the 3 types by spending some rings, some gears that doesn't give you any type ability but has a special upgrade to it, etc. It is genuinely really fun, while it is kinda confusing the types not being from the characters and them not even starting with their type abilities until they upgrade, I think that makes not only choosing your gear more fun but the races too, like, in the first lap, everyone is probably equal, because they all don't have their types to get their exclusive shortcuts, while in the last lap the game is already a lot more developed, that creates such a fun evolution to your races with an clearly "early game" and "late game" And another thing I love about ZG is, as I said, the Gravity Control, while I do not like it replacing the drift, I would love having both in the moveset, I love the fact that this ability gives you new routes, along with the type exclusive routes that you have on the first game, that makes the track really complex like the first game that also has multiple paths, and it is so fun to go into new paths by breaking a fan, sticking into a wall, jumping off a ramp and then using Gravity Control in mid air to go higher into a new path, there are so many cool new paths to go, that the Gravity Control allows like the 1st game couldn't, and I think it is a cool ability for a sequel to expand on the level design, the Gravity Dive also is super interesting, it drains your gravity meter really fast but it may be worth using to get some amazing extra speed, especially in the intended sections where there are objects on the air to give you a boost, it is risky, may make you not be able to use Gravity Control to take shortcuts, and can even make you have to run on-foot for a while, but it can be very rewarding I'm indifferent about the on-foot shortcuts, idk if I like them better than having to run and refuel your gear in a pitstop or not, but I think they're cool One thing that I would recommend, after playing ZG, play Sonic Riders Regravitified sometimes, it is really fun and makes Zero Gravity a lot more fun than it already is by fixing the gameplay simplification, adding the charge to jump of a rank (sadly there is no trick system, it must be complicated to do) and it adds a drift, which is not as smooth as 1st Riders but it works well and makes the Gravity Control really fun to use only to take shortcuts not to make turns The "bad" part about it for me is that it adds the character specific types back (which some people might prefer actually), which for me takes away that fun part that I said about choosing your gear and the upgrades you'll need, which I think it is a worth trade for what it gives to you, and it's fair, it's still really fun to play with the type specific characters just like it was on the first game, but I think the upgrade system is so fun that for me I get a bit sad that this comes along with the other features (still a great mod though) Thanks for reading!

  • @AccelerateHedge

    @AccelerateHedge

    5 ай бұрын

    I'm personally not a fan of Regravitified since I don't like how drifting is faster but also doesn't take away any energy from the meter (also they removed the hidden trick system in ZG for the sake of the charge jump, which btw was there,) but it's still an interesting modding effort nonetheless. (Also the Gear Change system doesn't restrict you from shortcuts if you get the type upgrade first lol)

    GoatDubA back with the fire editing! 🔥🔥🔥 I can't say much about this game since I haven't played it, but I can talk about the music and story. For the first, the music is great. I don't listen to it very often, but it gives off a lot of personality, which I'm a big fan of. The story, however, is where I have problems. From what I remember, the interpretations of Sonic and Amy are poo poo garbage. Sonic is too jerky for my taste, and Amy is just... well, fangirl. I'd be down to play this game, though, if SEGA ports it to modern hardware because I don't want to HAVE to emulate this game just to play it. Knowing SEGA, though, I'm not expecting anything of the sort any time soon, which is a shame, but oh well, I guess.

    Another thing you failed to mention are some of the various boards you can get. One of my favorites is the Opa opa which I use on knuckles a lot. What this board does is it makes you ALWAYS have a level 3 attack which is akin to that of amy's level 3 attack where she flattens you. Its especially annoying in Tag mode because that forces you to lose a lot of time.

    Sonic Riders was my first Sonic game and is still m favourite. I remember my brother and I getting an old ps2 with a bunch of old games on it and one day we just wanted to check out Sonic Riders. And when I first turned it on amd started playing it I instantly liked EVERYTHING. The design, the tracks, the ost, everything was just sitting for me. I recently got Zero Gravity on my dolphin emulator and it is a great game, but soundtrack doesnt slap as hard as it did in original game (even though it is still very good and I really love some of the sountracks). The story is definitley better and more fun in Zero Gravity but the problem I have with Zero is that it doesn't really have any rules. Okay, I have decent playing but I still didn't master the game fully like I did Riders 1, but idk, when I'm racing, everyone just gets ahead of me out of nowhere, or are just faster than me and I cant catch up with them. This might be a skill issue lol, but I definitley liked mechanics in the first game better. Plus, it's my first one, and nothing will be ahead of it, I just wish they made more tracks and characters for the first game.

If a new official riders game my hope : Scrap the kinect thingy No cutscenes images wth garbage renders Actual cutscenes + CGI Bring back unique character models Gameplay polish A tutorial Better execution of the story Bring back game modes No bloated & complicated gameplay from zero gravity Better dialogue execution Good peak music again Goofyness

    With all due respect, I have to disagree with learning the game in a normal race first. Story mode has a solid difficulty progression, even for someone new. Sure some races further ahead are more difficult(Wave at Babylon Garden for me I had to restart a few times, even when I came back to the game as someone actually good at it)but even a kid could eventually beat the story mode. Hell, I did. Besides, you don't even need to WIN the first few races, which is good cause it makes it more beginner friendly. The controls were easy enough for me to catch onto as a kid, I really think that the story mode is suitable.
