SONIC CD SOUNDTRACK REVIEW SERIES

The Sega CD promised better-looking, better-sounding, and overall better content than that the lowly Genesis could run on its own. No longer were the worlds of Sega constrained to the memory limitations of a cartridge. Sonic CD was the flagship title produced for the Sega CD, a device that mounted on a Genesis and allowed for the use of CD-based games. YouвЂ™re happy you came, and you plan to recommend the pool to your friends. But eventually, you realize that having so much depth to work with lets you make every lap different for example, you can kick off the wall and point downwards without having to worry about hitting the floor with your head.ДЄt the end of the day, even though each lap isnвЂ™t extraordinary on its own, being able to use the depth to make each lap interesting is enough. At first, swimming seems as average as itвЂ™s ever been in any other pool.

Any given lap, however, feels rather short.ДЄt first, you consider simply leaving, but you decide to the give the pool a try, since youвЂ™re there already. The lifeguard insists the statement in the ad is true-the pool is hundreds of feet deep, so it is the worldвЂ™s biggest pool.

When you actually get to the pool, youвЂ™re confused: the pool is average sized if anything, itвЂ™s a little on the small side. You absolutely canвЂ™t wait to go to the pool and see it for yourself. You can dog-paddle for hours without having to turn around. ThereвЂ™s no picture in the ad, but your mind paints a picture of a pool stretching for miles. Imagine you see an ad for a new swimming pool-specifically, the worldвЂ™s biggest swimming pool. This is one of those times, so bear with me while I explain (in a roundabout fashion) what makes Sonic CD so unusual. IвЂ™m usually not one for cheesy metaphors, but sometimes theyвЂ™re just what the situation calls for. So, why exactly is Sonic CD such a richly atmospheric work and a fantastic example of worldbuilding? Its bosses are easy, its stages are short, and its plot is a rudimentary affair constrained by having only four named characters. It can be completed within ninety minutes on a first attempt, without even trying to speedrun.
