Better Video Game "#26": Because that Kalyx TriaD thread is annoying

[OssMan]

Going head to head with the "16 bit era" I guess. Super Mario World vs. Sonic 2, which is considered the best Sonic game on Genesis.

Platformer's Delight!

[The Jayman]

hands down Super Mario World

[Fignuts]

Super Mario World

Was a tough one though. Sonic 2 is all kinds of awesome.

[G]

Sonic 2 is why I rented a Genesis from Blockbuster so many times. Also rented the 32x for Doom. :D

[Emperor Smeat]

Super Mario World but both games are good regardless of the results.

Those 2 games are probably the pinnacle of the Mario-Sonic character war in the 16-bit era.

[Kalyx triaD]

What?

Super Mario World easy.

[Fryza]

SMW was the best of the Mario series, while Sonic 2 is Sonic...

[Lock Jaw]

No Sonic game can even touch Super Mario World.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

Sonic 2

You guys clearly huff paint

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Yeah we huff the paint that comes from StarWorld, which is probably one of the greatest challenges in video game history.

How many times did you die in Totally Tubular?

Super Mario World wins!

[#BROKEN Hasney]

Not too many, I'm pretty good at Mario. Did get the wrong exit a couple of times though.

But SMW had no Blast Processing!!

[NoRoolz]

Sonic 2, standard.

Super Mario World wins!
"tubular" was the level, "totally tubular" is a phrase from rocket power

the hardest level on star road was Outstanding though

[Kane Knight]

Mario World. Sonic isn't even close.

[The Mackem]

Good job Assman

[screech]

While I don't think that Super Mario World is the best of the Mario series, I am picking it here.

Tough decision for me though, as I still enjoy playing both games.

[NoJabbaNoBogRoll]

I was never a Mario fan.

[The Gold Standard]

Sonic 2 is one of my favorite games of all time.

[Jeritron]

Oh shit. Crazy matchup.

Mario World is clearly the better game from a logical standpoint, and incredibly awesome. It's hard to vote against Sonic 2 though, because it's also one of my favorites from the same time, and packs just as much nostalgia.

Gonna have to go with Mario World, but it's on a short list of games that beat out Sonic 2 for me

[Triple A]

I never had an SNES, so Sonic 2 easily for me. :'(

[alvarado52]

Sonic 2 is why I rented a Genesis from Blockbuster so many times. Also rented the 32x for Doom. :D

i was wondering who the other person was who bought a 32x. I saw the sales numbers after i bought one, and it was only two.

[Gone Mad]

Easily, Super Mario World.

No game kept me playing over and over like that one did. And the music so memorable.

I had a 98% complete 32X collection.

But I did buy it all second hand so I wouldn't have been included in the sales figures.

[Rammsteinmad]

Super Mario World.

I miss my SNES. :'(

[Big Fat Mike]

U.N. Squadron

[Nicky Fives]

I wasted tons of my childhood youth playing both of these games.... Mario is better

[Poit]

Super Mario World

[muffalufagus]

U.N. Squadron

Hardest. Game. Ever.

[Savio]

Love sonic 2

[dablackguy]

Mario World easy

Sonic had little depth to it...

Run through this level as fast as you can...good job.... do it again and again

As opposed to finding all the levels in Mario World

[Kalyx triaD]

Your definition of depth is shaky. Mario World would be the one with depth and Sonic 2 was pretty straight forward (with some boss-ass bass lines).

That's what he said. "Little" depth as in barely any.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

You know, the Mega Drive had some shit sound hardware compared to the SNES, but Sonic Team knew how to work that and I'd take the soundtrack of any Sonic above any SNES games.

Can't actually think of another MD game with a good sountrack tbh.

Aye.
