[..YouTube..] That blow thingy is a little middle-age solution, especially because the problem usually is the oxidated surface of the circuit OR the same with the actual system. Use WD40 to clean it, if the chips are intact, there won’t be any problem no more.
[..YouTube..] do blow on it my copy is just a bit annoying
[..YouTube..] Always blow in the bottom of the cartridge to get rid of dust particles, I think that’s why games cut out and freeze on the screen. I should know I’ve been caught so many times that it’s not funny!!
[..YouTube..] This is definetly the coolest track in the game. I especially like that part at 0:39 seconds.
[..YouTube..] so annoyin. i was on the air fortress after spendin like an hour playin the hardest stages and it FROZE !!!!!!!
[..YouTube..] Wing Fortress ZoneTook me a year to beat that
[..YouTube..] Reminds me of Superman for some reason
[..YouTube..] Hmm… I personally sucked at… the air fortress (can’t think of the name)
[..YouTube..] LOL This level was….FRUSTRATING to say the least. I hated those damn grasshoppers -_-
[..YouTube..] you read my mind!
[..YouTube..] Act 1 - Not too bad.Act 2 - Meh, some parts are annoying.Act 3 - PAIN IN THE BUTT. Cheap enemy placement, satanic platforming sections, difficult boss, the works.
[..YouTube..] The boss in this stage was a pain. I hate how Robotnik was surrounded by those egg things.
[..YouTube..] yeah, this is the best song of the game!
[..YouTube..] the music is repetitive yet freaking awesome!
[..YouTube..] this is like the best song from this game
[..YouTube..] those damn crab-like enemies are the worst part of this stage. they’re virtually invincible! I also hate those praying mantises that come out of nowhere and throw knives
[..YouTube..] YES
[..YouTube..] Just beat it…Just beat it!!!-Micheal Jackson.
[..YouTube..] I found scrap brain much harder, if only for act 3 with the pseudo Labyrinth zone.
[..YouTube..] I play The Sonic series since 1991, however when I come to this 3 zone stage(instade of 2 zones) it gets hard from themain courses, enemies, and Dr. Robotnik which he uses an egg-like shiled that hovers when ever he moves,and uses them to hit you when they move in splts.
[..YouTube..] I hate that FAT,UGLY,MAN! At the end with his clone bubble things. That was a bitch to play through! especially with Knuckles!
[..YouTube..] i love this song but i hate this lvl its so hard like the 2nd hardiest lvl in this game.
[..YouTube..] play sonic 1 all zones had 3 acts
[..YouTube..] this level was the biggest pain in the neck about sonic 2 for me. but the music was really catchy!
[..YouTube..] I H8 THIS ZONE SO HARD 3 ACTS!!!
[..YouTube..] the damn stars had me pissed, like the time at was at a height, and (BAM) I get knocked over by a star shooting spikes
[..YouTube..] Sonic 2 has such awesome music.
[..YouTube..] when sonic was good
[..YouTube..] indeed it was
[..YouTube..] oh god don’t remind me of those fucking mantis. them and the crab bastards piss me off the most. this tune is pretty great too.
[..YouTube..] agreed
[..YouTube..] this zone is soooooooooo long and hard, it out scrap brain to shame. tuff tune for a tuff level
[..YouTube..] “This is the hardest zone in the game. “–I found water ruins to be far more difficult, I would always get killed by the guys who burst out of the walls when I was going at a speed of over 9000
[..YouTube..] This is the hardest zone in the game.
[..YouTube..] the metropolis zone out of all the original sonic sega genesis games was the one i found most troublesome, primarily cos it was absolutly littered with the most frustrating badnicks. the crabs, the preying mantis’s, the exploding starts.
[..YouTube..] Jump by Van Halen mixed in with this anyone? (I can’t remix it but it might be something to look into. I was looking earlier and it sounds cool.)
[..YouTube..] Yes, a quick creation, for a quick character.
[..YouTube..] i have this tune on a cd and i have the game this level happens to be my favorite..well besides the chemical plant and i can finish all three acts in under 6 min…not braggenen or nothin but that is how much i love that level that i can finish it no problem
[..YouTube..] Sounds like the Human League kind of
[..YouTube..] y u do dis?
[..YouTube..] The first 2 acts are easy. It’s the third act that’s hard, the bit where Sonic goes upwards on the side springs.On one side there’s a praying mantis enemy on the otherside is a shield. You got to hope that Sonic lands on the left side where the shield is or DAMN! you lost your rings!
[..YouTube..] Lyrics 0:08Keep going, make it through.Keep going, make it through.
[..YouTube..] i see big giants screws =]
[..YouTube..] u know theres a game called sonic mega collection plus for xbox and ps2
[..YouTube..] The boss is easy,so is the stage when you get used to it.
[..YouTube..] DAMN YOU METROPOLIS ZONE D:< This is the ONLY stage in the game I never got past, even after the years I played it for. Me and my friend would spend hours playing this game together, only to be stumped at Metropolis Zone every single time.. But I’ll be damned if we didn’t have a good time doing it. really wish Sonic would take Capcom’s lead and return to the old days like Megaman 9, the new 3D Sonic games are shit. BRING BACK THE CLASSICS! D:
[..YouTube..] Metropolis is definitely the heaviest music track out of them all. The drums start the music off followed by a keyboard and organ chorus. This music track has twanga bass and a lead guitar in it and has always been one of my favourites! When I first heard it I thought it was ZZ Top. That DJ and clap bit in it gives it a zing!
[..YouTube..] Actually Act 3 was supposed to be Genocide City Zone, but I think they scrapped the zone idea and made it into Act 3 for Metropolis because of time contraints. Suppositivly Act 3 is very close to what Genocide City was supposed to be like.
[..YouTube..] This level probably has the coolest theme and background of the whole game. That being said, I think this level certainly did not need three acts.
[..YouTube..] haha fantastic comment - I know what you mean!
[..YouTube..] I want to play again…Where is my Sega Genesis??
[..YouTube..] Got the video, thanks.
[..YouTube..] Well not really in Sonic 2, but I do know that most Sonic 3 songs are by Michael Jackson. I’ll send you a video.
[..YouTube..] Yeah, I never knew that. Thanks. Do you know what songs in particular were edited?
[..YouTube..] I mean nothing bad of it, I just wanna give some info most people don’t know.
[..YouTube..] So? These songs are still awesome!
[..YouTube..] This song would go pretty good with double dragon
[..YouTube..] It was very frustrating. Those Grasshopper/Mantis enemies.
[..YouTube..] This is the only stage that has 3 zones instade of 2…
[..YouTube..] Oh boy, anyone remember those friggin’ things that shot their arms out at you and they all were conviently placed right after those crazy tubes you had to ride in, I remember my brother getting so mad at that.
[..YouTube..] good comment recommended: 24+
[..YouTube..] Boy, does this one take me back…..You know I could beat the whole game except the second level? I know how lame that sounds, considering I could finish the game at like, when I was like, 4 and a half…. and I couldn’t do the bloody second level. I just tossed the controller at my dad, and said, “Give it back at Aquatic Ruin.” I know, I know, pathetic.
[..YouTube..] Metal sonic is easy .. just use supersonic cheat+level editor cheat you can turn into Super sonic with over 1000 rings…
[..YouTube..] or actually the other way… as this is first
[..YouTube..] CandySoup
hhaaha ure so right
[..YouTube..] The freaking Mantis gets me every time. I never know when to expect those damn blades.
[..YouTube..] This song is the same as Walk Idiot Walk by the hives
[..YouTube..] This is the best song of Sonic 2
[..YouTube..] Cool!I like this one!
[..YouTube..] hahahha i’m a moron sometimes, i was waiting for ages for the video to start showing the level.. i was like “fuck.. this is taking way too long to load the level, the guy should have just clipped it at the beginning when it loads” untill i noticed it was just a video showing the music.
[..YouTube..] I agree completely. This particular song is basically perfect!
[..YouTube..] Best music in any Sonic game IMO. Don’t get me wrong, every Sonic game had amazing music and there are songs that come close to this but this for me is the best
[..YouTube..] god, i hate those mantis
[..YouTube..] The Stars… the Crabs… the Mantis… this level was SUCH a chore, but the music was awesome!
[..YouTube..] ahhhhh right. sorry for the blonde moment
[..YouTube..] nonono…its from your comment about OH CRAP MARIOS HERE! remember Mario 64? Toss him off Mario: “So long gay bowser!” You get it….
[..YouTube..] uuuuh…u calling me gay? or the character?
[..YouTube..] So long gay Bowser! ^.^
[..YouTube..] Sounds like a Prince song.
[..YouTube..] Oh god I got to this level and at the second act I died and I had no more lives I got so pissed off, I was like two or three. God it’s so fuckin long!
[..YouTube..] well the only good game after that was sonic adventure 2 but thats about it
[..YouTube..] Miss the time where Sonic was as good as Mario
[..YouTube..] UGGGH THAT FUCKING CRAB. Those crab guys suck SO much ass. I don’t see the huge deal with the star dudes.
[..YouTube..] most of the sonic games after sonic adventure 1 suck
[..YouTube..] GWAHAHAHAHA!! indeed i did! that plumber is swimming around in the sewers while peach is in my clutches!! …..”talks to a minion” wait what?..,…WHAT DO U MEAN HE’S HERE? GAAAAAAAAAAH
[..YouTube..] got that right super bowser, hey kick any mario butt lately?
[..YouTube..] sick
[..YouTube..] My name is Ricardo and i love this game! I could never get tired of listening to this song! Even though this is an old game, the music never get’s old. I also like to play Sonic Unleashed and Sonic and the Black Knight. rock on Sonic the Hedgehog!!!!
[..YouTube..] Listen To walk Idiot Walk by the Hives Pretty Similar to this song
[..YouTube..] gotta love the begining
[..YouTube..] yeah they camp for ya and when ya come out BOOM! you get hit
[..YouTube..] Yeah this track is the ish but the actual stage was a pain in the ass! Damn Mantises and Crabs ugh!
[..YouTube..] sonic 2 RULES.
[..YouTube..] this game will NEVER get old!! it’s still freakin awesome!!!
[..YouTube..] Good music, but I didn’t like this stage very much. Stupid crabs and mantises, oh, and lets not forget exploding starfish!
[..YouTube..] haha i feel like i need to play that game again too
[..YouTube..] sometimes i wonder how sega made such music….damn good stuff
[..YouTube..] It is the music of the original platformer Sonic games that made them for me. I love every one of them and still play through them even today. For me, this song is the best thing to come from all of the Sonic games, followed almost indeterminably by Chemical Plant Zone and Mystic Cave Zone.Now I need to play Sonic 2 again…
[..YouTube..] i agree with pewfeet this level is hard. act 3 was a pain. going up the thing u have to run on and those stars that shoots out on the sides. and robotnik with those things around his ship. Pain in the ass.!!! But fun. i miss these good old days.
[..YouTube..] Whoa. You´re right. The guitar sounds a lot like this.
[..YouTube..] this music’s fucking awesome!!! Love Sonic!
[..YouTube..] nah, i’m pretty sure he means raping.hhaha
[..YouTube..] This sounds just like Walk Idiot Walk by The Hives! Compare it! I aint joking I aint on drugs either!
[..YouTube..] Now this is my jam. i could listen to this all day!
[..YouTube..] The “guitar” progression reminds me of something Mike Rutheford of Genesis would play.
[..YouTube..] this level was fucking hard man…
[..YouTube..] lol what kinda sex are you havin
[..YouTube..] This fuckn level was HARD
[..YouTube..] my bad
[..YouTube..] @horaciosiWTF? beat boxing and raping? You mean “rapping” right?
[..YouTube..] kinda reminds me of a cross between beat boxing and raping but instrumental
[..YouTube..] This song always reminds me of like chicken (I would imagine live chickens just randomly there) o-o; … maybe the chicken pox I had while playing the game when I was about 3 had some mind effect @-@;
[..YouTube..] wtf?? lol hahahahaaaaaa
[..YouTube..] Fun music, but the level annoyed the hell out of me. Hate those exploding starfish..
[..YouTube..] Because they couldn’t. Sonic 1 and 2 were composed by DCT and they need to pay royalties for the music unless they plan to change the music the only old Megadrive games they can remake are CD, 3 & Knuckles, 3D Blast and Spinball.
[..YouTube..] u can sex to this music
[..YouTube..] ROFL that’s how it was meant to be.
[..YouTube..] And your username is Manty. How ironic.It’s an enemy that shoots boomerangs at you in such an arc that basically always hit. God damn.
[..YouTube..] GOD, KILL ME.I hate those so much. ;_;
[..YouTube..] if you’ve never played the game or, more specifically, this zone, then you wouldn’t know about gaining momentum, only to be stopped by the flying blades of a mantis who is lying in wait…..
[..YouTube..] Halo does have excellent music! This has good music too, though. It’s just a different genre.Although I agree that Call of Duty has no good music whatsoever.
[..YouTube..] Old sonic music is cool, News music of sonic SUCKSIm compositor and i see the old music have more work making themsThis in real instrument can sound FANTASTIC.
[..YouTube..] la lala lalalaSo awesome!
[..YouTube..] Why couldn’t Sega make a remake of all the old classic Sonic games, and make them 3D!A whole new remake whit 2D and 3D would be so awesome!
[..YouTube..] Even as a kid, when I heard this song, the first thing that pops into my head is Madonna. But I never heard anything from her. O~O
[..YouTube..] Does anybody know where to find the Zone Opening Picture. I’m trying to make a video for school and want to use that at the beginning
[..YouTube..] This is my favourite song from Sonic The Hedgehog2 =)
[..YouTube..] This is probably my favorite Sonic Theme, it’s hard to choose, they all just ooze quality.
[..YouTube..] i hate to ask, but what’s the “Mantis”?
[..YouTube..] It didn’t bring back nostalgia for me.Just the frustration.
[..YouTube..] I HATE YOU MANTIS! YOU COST ALWAYS COST ME SO MANY LIVES! lol, who knew music would bring back the feeling of happy nostalgia and of frustration?
[..YouTube..] VVV ——— U FORGOT CRABS
[..YouTube..] DAMN YOU STARFISH AND MANTIS!!!!!!
[..YouTube..] they dont make music for games like they used to……..sigh
[..YouTube..] Sonic really does have the greatest music tracks ever…Sigh… the crabs and praying mantises though…
[..YouTube..] i died so many times in this stage!!!!! ROTFL!!!! mainly cuz i was always jammin 2 da music. it feel good 2 know dat i aint da only person who was in love wit da songs from sonic games. i still love ‘em now & im 23!
[..YouTube..] This was the first game i owned as a kid, and this was my favorite zone simply because of the music lol
[..YouTube..] i know…i got killed so many times…
[..YouTube..] my bro is now playing sonic 2 on the sega!! LOL and he is on Metropolis!
[..YouTube..] *imagines running up a nut/screw thingy while being attacked by starfish*
[..YouTube..] COOL!
[..YouTube..] I hated the crabs more than anything else!
[..YouTube..] Lol I agree I loved the music for this zone but the zone itself was annoying to play.
[..YouTube..] MGS is like the closest thing to a FPS with good music…i miss the good ol days with sonic and mario…
[..YouTube..] yeah it was… You went into a door and got transported through a tube
[..YouTube..] agree there that just suck the new gun game and there non stop killing spreewhy i bet if we all got toghweter we can destroye thoese games and bring back clasics WOOOOOOOO
[..YouTube..] Yeah. these “new gen” shooters lack MUSIC.
[..YouTube..] Oh, you know what I mean. *glances at the Halo trilogy and Call of Duty 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5*
[..YouTube..] Sonic Unleashed says otherwise… <_< though i do miss tracks like this.
[..YouTube..] Yes, music in video games really isn’t what it used to be. Mostly because it’s drowned out by the blaring non stop sounds of gunshots. -.-
[..YouTube..] This zone had a catchy song but i hated playing through metropolis zone. Just when i was at act 2 thinking that there would be no fight with eggman at the end- BAM! Secret act 3 >.>
[..YouTube..] thats true sadly they made the music worser T.Twe miss the clasic
