How Sonic Frontiers SAVED Super Sonic!

Sonic Frontiers has restored my faith in the franchise, the movies really good but this game showed that Sonic Team are still capable of making truly great games, they brought the more serious tone of the older games and the cool factor of Sonic, and I’m so excited to see what the blue blur has in store for us with Update 3 The Final Horizon, Superstars and much more stuff

I think Sonic Generations actually had the right idea with Super Sonic, at least on paper. Its essentially the Sonic Adventure philosophy of Super Sonic, and the Sonic Colors philosophy of Super Sonic in one game. That being having Super Sonic be playable during the final boss and in the main stages too. I think Super Sonic boss fights are cool, but theres also fun to be had just being a golden force of nature playing Super Sonic in normal stages. When its done right anyway which I can't really say too many of the 3D games do outside of colors.

After Frontiers I can confidently say Sonic is finally cool again The 3rd update next week is gonna have a new form and everyone is going to go INSANE!!!!

These fights were great, especially on the first playthrough. The first playthroughs of Super Sonic boss fights should have something to remember and cherish about them. I'm glad we're back on track with having Super Sonic incorporated within the story instead of being relegated to DLC. Granted, during the 2010s Era, Sonic was more than strong enough to deal with what was ahead of him, but it still would've been cool to see him. That made me just think about how strong Sonic himself is getting and how brilliant it makes Super Sonic. There's so much potential for Super Sonic, and I hope they continue to take advantage of it! I wonder what kind of significance the new form for Update 3 will have! 7:18 It's actually not "Heavy Metal." It's a complete separate subgenre of Metal called "Metalcore."

I think what really helps Super Sonic boss fights particularly in the 3D games, is that it really signals a phase change. Although you're playing a mostly invincible character in most cases, the difficulty isn't in not necessarily getting 'hurt' but rather learning the new control scheme and moveset, while also learning the boss phases and how to more efficiently take down the boss before your rings run out. Once you have that flow going, you have some of the best music in each game psyching you up which adds to the feel, and the general spectacle that really makes it feel like a culmination of that game's journey, so in a way it feels cathartic when you win. Basically it's just the 'Rule of Cool' personified. Least that's my take.

We are so close to Sonic Frontiers reaching its true potential and I can’t express my excitement for it!

1 week away

Frontiers has the best sonic fights out of all games hands down

Everybody Super Sonic Racing!!!

7:38 I agree This game got me into metal and I want them to continue using it :)

Honestly i'm really looking forward to Update 3 and i remember i think it was the Sonic hot takes video where Matt said he wanted Super sonic to evolve. Welp looks like you got your wish Matt i'm also excited to see Super Sonic 2's power

Heavy metal isn't edgy, it's just a music genre and it's actually Metalcore

I know this is totally off-topic but I just finished sonic lost world (beside bonus zones). THIS IS THE MOST UNDERRATED SONIC GAME. Fine, it's not perfect, could be better, but this game is mostly fun and lava Mountain zone 3 is sooooo awesome - zavok boss fight is imo the best boss fight besides boss fights from sonic frontiers

3:03 If SA is the GOAT, Unleashed is the GOAT²

personally i think that they can make the super sonic final bossfights a tad bit more difficult. you still feel powerful but its not like theres no challange at all. and i dont think that supersonic bossfights today arent challanging i just think that it woulndt hurt to make them just a little more exiting. or they can just leave that for a hard mode or whatever i dont care

1:03 you aint alone that this has got be the most coolest Sonic has been (or at least somewhere up there)

They better give sonic a chaos beam attack for the final horizon update

i wouldnt say it saved the series. but it did give the series hope, apart for the slightly clunky gameplay and still cutscenes the game was a blast.

Metal Overlord was my first super sonic boss and between the music, dialogue and atmosphere, it felt hyped and like a good reward for completing 4 stories and getting the chaos emeralds
