Happy 21st Birthday Sonic The Hedgehog! by
Assalamualaikum and a very good day to all~
Ever since I woke up today, I sat in front of my laptop, and all of the sudden, I listen to one of the Sonic The Hedgehog songs. So I was like "Today, I'm going to download a lot of Sonic's soundtrack and listen to it all day long." And I did, till now. But for some reason, I don't know why I did this, so I ignore that feeling.
As usual, I do most of my ordinary life, give some advice to my junior back in Rompin, eat, pray, hang out and stuff. But one thing for certain, I keep my iPhone run Sonic The Hedgehog running. In fact, I just make a new playlist for my iPhone called "Sonic The Hedgehog soundtrack" about 9PM, and still I don't know why I did it.
Then, when I was listen to my crush story and waiting for my friend to come, I came across to Sonic The Hedgehog Facebook page, and it shows that today it was Sonic's 21st birthday. I was like "OMG~! HAPPY BIRTHDAY SONIIIC~! NO WONDER I DID ALL THOSE STUFF TODAY~!" And I though I want to scream with all my might. Hahaha~! xD
It all starts when I was a very small boy, about 3 years old. At that time, the first game I ever attach with is this game back in the 90's, Sonic The Hedgehog. I can't remember what console is it, but I think is's for SEGA Genesis.
1991, Sonic was born and makes a hit in the SEGA industry. As I recall, Sonic was intend to be SEGA's mascot, until one of the high staff thinks this mascot could be a hit to that era. And so, Sonic The Hedgehog was release. I played around 1996 or so. Then came Sonic The Hedgehog 2. In this game, Tails were introduce as a new character besides the villain Doctor Robonic (Also known as Doctor Eggman in present day)
A year after, the era of PC is arrive. It's kinda fast, but I think I was about 5 years old. Then Sonic R came for PC. It's pretty a simple game; race till you get first place while collecting rings. Simple and easy, yet it's something for a kid to play. And at that time, I've become attach to Sonic more.
The after that, I played Sonic and Knuckle for PC. Although it was release in 1994, never too late to play, right? In this game, a new character was introduce, Knuckles. At that time, I was 9 years old. The most favorite moment is when I finish the game after the Sky Sanctuary stage. I think I have to fight the final boss, Sonic Metal. After defeating it, the whole island created by Doctor Robonik fall, and I think it's your choice during the game whether you want to remain the island or not. I chose to keep the island on the ground. When the credit rolls, that's when I like the credit songs, when all the stage song were played.
Then when I was 12, PS2 was release. And of course, SEGA will release a game to that platform. The first PS2 game from Sonic Team was Sonic Heroes. This is one of the Sonic games that I didn't finish yet. In this game, I was introduce to a whole lot of new character. And I know that I was missing some Sonic series like Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2 where Rose The Hedgehog, Shadow The Hedgehog, Rogue, Cream & Chao, Espio, Mister Big and others were introduce. Oh well, when I get the chance, I'll play it for the PC version. xD
Then, another new game from Sonic Team were release. This time, it's not about Sonic, it's all about Shadow The Hedgehog. In this game, Shadow was seeking out the truth about who really was he. He only have a very minor fragment of memories of a girl, and as he about to think more, an alien come to him, offer him his past in return of the Chaos Emerald.
Shadow The Hedgehog was different from Sonic. Although he's not as fast as Sonic (The most obvious part is Shadow is wearing this high-tech shoes), but with Chaos Emerald, he can unleash 2 types of power, Chaos Control to control time, and Chaos Blast to blast off your enemy that blocks your way wither the area. Shadow was also be able to use various of guns and vehicle, and his attitude were cold. Because of this, most of the fan call him a bad ass.
Oh, forgot to tell, it was also release for PS2.
Then the last title from PS2 that I played was Sonic Riders. I can't really remember it because I only played it for a short brief, but again like Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2, I want to search it and play it till the end. Never the less, instead of using his feet, Sonic surf up the whole city using skateboard and still running.
There's 2 version, and I played "Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity". This was also for PS2. At that time, I was 12 years old.
Then I was 13 years old when PS3 was release. And again, Sonic Team release yet another game for PS3 called Sonic The Hedgehog. Because the title was the same as the 1991 version, most of the fans call it Sonic 06, as it was release in 2006. And again, I didn't have a chance to play this because I didn't own a PS3. I'll look up if there's any PS3 emulator for PC. xD
In this game, you were introduce another new character, Silver The Hedgehog who have the ability to control time. The prove is he himself were came from the future. Another character that was introduce to me was Blaze The Cat, since I didn't play Sonic Rush, which is it was first introduce in that game.
After that, I was sit in the hostel, didn't know what is the development of Sonic Team until I was 18 years old. At that time, there's tons of Sonic games that I didn't played yet. Among it are Sonic Chronicle, Sonic Rush, Sonic Unleash (Xbox and Wii), Sonic Colors (Wii) and a whole lot other titles that I can't remember. Mostly it's for GBA and N-DS.
At the same year, the most shocking year in my entire life, SEGA announce that they have release Sonic Generation. On the spot, I went out and look for Sonic Generation, and brought it, play it, and finish it for 2 days in the row.
Sonic Generation gives a new life to Sonic games. It not just suitable for the new Sonic fans and players, but also the old one. That because you can not only play as Modern Sonic (3D) but also Classic version of Sonic (2D). I tell you, if you're a die hard Sonic fan like me, playing this would brings a lot of memories from your childhood.
Oh, and this game was release during Sonic's 20th birthday! How cool was that?! The most nostalgic moment is during the credit roll of this game. It replays most of the Sonic titles, from Sonic The Hedgehog until Sonic Colors.
Until now, I believe the Sonic Team are keeps developing new game, and i hope they will figure out how to fix the bug because a lot of fans keeps complaining the same thing; bug. But above all, I still like Sonic, and I forever will.
The interesting part of Sonic was the soundtrack. Most of them were EPIC. You should search it in Youtube. The fan made was also not bad, and there's tons of different version. Example, I know that 'His World' from Sonic 06 have 10 different version. And most of them were epic. EPIC I tell you.
Time pass by, and now Sonic is celebrating his 21st birthday. Nevertheless, I'm proudly announce that I am a Sonic The Hedgehog die-hard-fan. Keep on running, blue blur!
AND HAPPY 21ST BIRTHDAY! :D
P/S: Here's the Sonic Generations credit roll video, and at the end of the credit, let's shout out Happy Birthday Sonic, dear Sonic fans!
