- It's time for another episode of: Sonic Speed Strats! Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is celebrated as one of those rare sequels that took everything that was good about the original game and improved upon it. This episode details what those improvements were that helped to define the Sonic series, such as a certain two-tailed fox, the spin dash, and Super Sonic.
Sonic Origins is available to download now: origins.sonicthehedgehog.com - Ігри
Now we need to see this guy speedrun all the games.
What guy
lol
@@kfuruhashi8 The one talking in the video. Also nice pfp.
Agreed
@@dylanku0625 his name is evan
This one was by far my favorite one to help make with the team. Sonic 2 made me the Sonic fan I am today!
Same here my man
same. first game ever. will never be topped.
Same
@@SonicFreak77 no bro I don’t know what you’re talking about Sonic three and knuckles will never be topped ig
@@laritzalopez5716 I prefer Sonic 2. Sonic 3 was such a banger tho
Man, I don't know who provides the narration for these videos, but they're fantastic.
The "Wait, no...NO NO" at the Casino Night segment is beautiful.
It was Evan (Mardiculous) from Tails' Channel who did his narration for Sonic Origins: Speed Strats.
I thought it was the voice actor for Sonic In Sonic Prime
@@STAXONDECK1 no, that was a different guy.
Same with the “I’m not gonna drown here again!” And “I can’t believe I did that first try”
He clearly didn’t.
Did u not see the comments in the first video?
I actually do like how this video acknowledges “Wait, Eggman runs faster than Sonic?”
no, they run the same speed
I hate it
@@Alejandro333777 great, but we love it.
@@noobyplays3981 if you spindash eggman will still run at the same speed even when you are going at max speed it's obvious that he can pass him
@@Sir_GrimReaper who is we not great
Quick tips for beginners regarding Sonic and Tails single player that the instructions does not tell you:
To utilize Tails’ flying ability hold up and press jump twice. Tails will begin to fly and you can aim Sonic’s jump to catch on so that Tails can carry him. Continue pressing the button to go higher. Hold down and press jump to jump off.
Special stages are more difficult with both Sonic and Tails. Tails copies Sonic a quarter of a second later so you’ll have to plan ahead to get him to dodge bombs. Also, the amount of rings you need to gather to earn the emerald actually increases when playing with Tails.
If you don't let him gather any rings you don't have to worry about him losing them in the first place.
@@evanmanor7444 he's gonna find a way to get a ring still
Playing with tails also increases the amout of ringa needed in the special stages
@@skunksecond little junkey fox
@@skunksecond a single ring shouldn't make or break getting a chaos emerald 🤷
It's been nearly 30 years now since the release of Sonic the Hedgehog 2. How time flies.
Not only the game, but Tails was also introduced as well since almost 30 years.
It's you again, Nat! How are you? I've seen you in any content by Japanese Sonic's channel many times. I wish you'll be recognized worldwide because of your Sonic X comparisons and Anime Mix parodies such as It's My Life and Dancing in the Moonlight. You're still a living legend! 🙌 Anyway, I'm totally agree with you!
@UCIczvmMu9d1_T3vjw7dRCLA the dude’s channel is like 13 years old
why does it keep changing to the channel url and not the channel name
Freak
"Yep. That's me. You're probably wondering how I ended up in this situation. Well, it all started when I got Sonic 2 for the Sega Genesis..."
“You’re probably wondering how I got myself in this situation.”
Nice reference to the first Sonic movie.
"To pull it off, hold still... I know, challenging." best line yet
Love how even the narrator knows the absurdity of Eggman being as fast as Sonic while running towards the giant mech
Edit: I know 100+ isn't that much but it's still the most likes I've gotten by a large margin wow
Guy didn't know that Eggman works out smh
@@gianluco Eggman on dat grind 💪💪💪
I've always thought it was sonic tuanting eggman
@@gianluco eggman never skipped leg day
@@gianluco why else are his legs abnornally skinnh hes gonna be speedy
That bit with Eggman's speed in Death Egg was comedy gold. Nice job, Evan!
Now the only game left is what we’ve all *R E A L L Y* been waiting for. Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Let’s do this.
I think he's going to say that the damn remixes are good because of the script or Sega will kill him if he says that
I had actually been waiting for Sonic CD and Sonic The Hedgehog 2. I like Sonic 3 & Knuckles but I forgot all about that game.
I want fourth episode out now
I can't wait for that episode to come out!
*games
1:22 OH MY GOD WHY IS THIS SO RELATABLE
Love these promo videos, so much fun and I could literally watch them all day happily.
True!
I like how the voiceover guy sounds like movie sonic
to bad sonic is never good when it comes to games lol sonic team needs to stop making sonic games because that's is what killing sonic
@@sage64thecrystal there's no way this isnt bait 💀
@@TristanLackey "sure" like sega has said there will be new playable characters and there's no playable amy nor new characters
I don’t know why I got so happy as to cheer and clap for the video when the player FINALLY did the Chemical Plant skip
Turns out that there's a better skip that lets you avoid the water altogether.
There's a vertical ramp before this section that you use to take a higher route if you go fast enough. On this route, you'll run through 2 loops and come to an upward curve. Jump on this curve, and you can reach the grey flooring above the water.
5:00 How come… in all of my years of being a sonic fan.. was never told I could THIS???? THAT COULDVE SAVED ME SO MUCH TIME OF MY LIFE
No one told you? You can do this in mania too
@@ProjectNB wtf
Idk but I use it every time I play mania or sonic 2 lol
I do it all the time
How do u do it
I freaking love the "You're probably wondering how I ended up in this situation" reference
That was the chef's kiss, beautiful
Sonic out here teaching you info and speed strats on old games! Impressive
I mean probably because sonic origins besides giving the chance to older players to re-expierience the classics, its also a way to introduce younger audience that are not familiar with these games. But at the same time I bet speed strats already exist in youtube so it's kinda meh.
@@Luigi-ts8ec IS THAT LUIGI?!?!
@@MF100 *Hello Mario*
Honestly, i hope we get more of these for more games in the future, because they are funny and helpful for those who have not yet expirienced these games.
Back when I was a kid, Chemical Plant Zone was THE level to beat; if you got past the rising water, you were considered a legend. Even today I still have PTSD from that one section 😅
I’ve had so many memories with this game, good and bad, and it is definitely one of the best.
There is a secret route in the Level where you can bypass that part. I have a video on how to get there.
Good lord, I love how Eggman outrunning Sonic is acknowledged here in all of its absurd glory.
Also, that trick at the end could prove to be quite helpful to those who will be playing Sonic 2 for the very first time through this collection... though that's not implying that I'm already aware of it, mind you.
Tip for the Spin Dash: You actually lose power if you don’t mash fast enough, make sure you release it as fast as possible
The beginning of Sonic and Tails' friendship!
I can get through the water part without drowning but I NEVER thought about this... 5:00
4:27 the t bagging😭😭
2:55
He: "Watch sonic blast off at super sonic speed!"
Sonic: *going slow*
1:35 I like how they included that in
Tip for the Special Stages: Bringing Tails with you raises the ring requirement up, so I’d recommend playing solo if you want Super Sonic/Super Knuckles and the good ending
Keep in mind, Tails is considered easy mode, so he doesn’t have a Super Form, unlike Sonic and Knuckles
Sonic 3 & Knuckles Origins: Allow me to fix that.
You can get Super Tails in Sonic 2 with debug mode by placing and breaking an 's' monitor
@@biancatherescuemouse3305 technically, but not by conventional means
Wait what!? I didn’t even know that!
The unfortunate part of playing with two characters in Sonic 2 is the special stages are way harder as Tails moves a second after you do meaning he's way more likely to get hit by bombs
Professional easy part is to not drown on Chemical Plant Zone.
I'm still stuck there
@@funisinfinite. WDYM ITS NOT EVEN HARD
@@sannukas23 I used to die there every time and then I just suddenly started not dying, maybe it's because I was older I was better at the game in some way? Being older usually works for me dealing with difficulty.
@@michaelg4981 one that you could only know from a level map or getting extremely lucky
When I was little I died there so much I had to use tails for the rest of the game....until I gave up on the final boss and I finally got passed that part with sonic when I played sonic mania
Love the fact they added the ability to fly as tails when you control Sonic/Knuckles in single player mode 👌
I love that they added tails' flying mechanics in general as tails couldn't fly in the original sonic 2 the only time he flew was when he would descend onto the screen when he went off screen.
3:51 Tails: no i don't think i will.
4:47 it at this moment that he knew he messed up
Whoever does the commentary for these videos is amazing
Evan from Tails Channel!
im suprised how sega of all channels is having such good sonic videos lol these are some of the most fun videos ive seen
0:08
This is why I always take the top route in Act 2. XD
In other words, the narrator's drowning impressions are top comedy! ^^
this guy is a fantastic narrator
This is fantastic! There’s good instructions and hints for newbies, that have never played Sonic’s games. Good job!👍
Another great episode! Sonic 2 not only was a nice game, it also brought some memories!
Ah my first ever Sonic game, I first played it in 1996 and have enjoyed Blue boy ever since.
Also the Sega chant used to scare the hell outta me.
You can instantly get the Sonic 2 Achievement/Trophy by using the stage select code and finishing death egg. you don’t even have to play the full game. When you startup Sonic 2 at the title screen, use the d-pad code up up up down down down left right left right and you should hear a ring sound. Once you do You have access to stage select, finish death egg zone and you’ll get the achievement/trophy instantly.
Yeah but
Where's the fun in doing that
@ I know it aint fun but if you want to 100% this game as quick as possible you can do this.
@@J4WSH1E How is it 100% if you don't even get the Chaos Emeralds?
These would’ve been really cool if they were released before the game came out
Finally a new episode I’ve been waiting so long for 1 WEEK Btw I’m Loving it also I comepleted sonic 2
2:29 Which is something you could also do by combining the Sonic 2 Cartridge with the Sonic & Knuckles Cartridge, and is in most other releases of Sonic 2!
With a new title screen for tails solo
Wait What!?!
LOCK ON TECHNOLOGY!!!!!
Can you guys patch this:
- Option to deactivate blur
- Give us a level select for crying out loud! Why do we still have to use a debug mode code...
- Muffled audio samples in 3&K
- Voices missing in CD
- Knuckles Chaotix music in museum
- Tails jumping non-stop in 2
- Real classic mode without spindash in Sonic 1 for example
- Ability to skip videos
- The many new collision glitches
And not to mention the new characters that was advetrised that we were supposed to get which is the biggest issue? >w
You can make tails stop jumping by making him fly, just spam the jump button for a few seconds if you aren't going anywhere.
@@Kaziko5453 That's not a solution dude. A temporary workaround, at best.
Audio isn't muffled on console, you can skip videos on console, no collision glitches on console, no blur on console, there is a level select, the code isn't hard to use, you can disable the spindash in sonic 1 using the level select and just start at green hill act 1 to play the game normally
@@arzfan29 also all of this collection is based on the mobile ports hence Hidden Palace being here
1:40 you do know you can also explore that zone in the mobile port by Christian Whitehead? (Also by entering a code in the mobile port, you can explore, Proto Palace! The actual level from the Sonic 2 Prototype!)
Wait whats the code
@@VW2010 - No code. You just fall down what was, in the original game, an inescapable pit in Mystic Cave. This game's version of Sonic 1, CD, and 2 are basically just ports of Whitehead's remakes of the games.
@@TheZeroNeonix He said there was a code to enter on Mobile to get to Proto Palace, the level from the Sonic 2 Prototype. Not the hidden palace from sonic 2 mobile port.
@@VW2010 - Oh. Then, actually, that's something I don't know about either. lol
Okay. I found it:
"As of version 3.0.9, to access Proto Palace Zone, the player must first access the Level Select (start the game in No Save Mode, tap the S-E-G-A letters when the Sega logo appears and hold two fingers at the title screen), input the Debug Mode code in the Sound Test (01, 09, 09, 02, 01, 01, 02, 04) and then must input an exclusive code in the Sound Test as follows: 03, 03, 03, 0B, 10, 10, 10, 04. (A Ring sound will play if successful.) Then, the player must select Hidden Palace Zone."
@@TheZeroNeonix I think that also works in origins. not sure tho
WHY ARE THE DROWNING NOISES SO GOOD I CANT
3:04 "you're really heavy!"
"That's because I'm 1,000,000% muscle, faster fox!"
The developers sure needed some speed strats to rush it out that badly
I don't own the game and I never will after stealth said the game was rushed out to release on sonic's birthday. I will just stick to the original versions on steam that I got before they were delisted and mega collection plus on ps2.
@@jarrodeaston6373 those steam ports imo are worse then the versions present here, just lazily emulated. id recommend sonic 1 forever, sonic 2 absolute, and sonic 3 air
@@jarrodeaston6373 to be blunt in one manner i wouldn't entirely suggest not getting it and let his new work on say Sonic 3 go to waste if it meant it can be updated
@@JamoXeno Yeah. I have that👍
@@MrLedhed123 most of that money goes to sega, dont reward them for pulling down previous versions and replacing it with a shitty port
I'm sure there will be Speed Straits talking about Sonic 3 & Knuckles in next week.
I love how they addressed how Eggman is still able to stay ahead of Sonic in a foot race.
2:52 and repeatedly press the jump button and REV UP THOSE FRYERS
Am I the only one who thought that?
I love these even if it's all old news to me
I really hope Origins gets a patch to fix Tails' broken AI, where all you hear is him jumping somewhere offscreen and even if you hold up on the d-pad, he doesn't fly to your location!
Ive been wating for this episode finally
My first video game ever. Good to see I'm living long enough to see Sega explain it to a new set of fans.
or to us nostalgia-hungry oldheads that can still bounce on Chemical Plant's boss like a bawse.
Wow, they really called out one of my greatest childhood enemies at the beginning there lol
3:04 nice
I didn't know you could make that jump out of the water at the end. Good stuff!
This video makes me wanna play Sonic Origins right now.
I actually never know you can control Tails in this version! Interesting possibilites.
Don't you mean.... "endless" possibilities?😏
@@rubensmith8075 that could work too
@@rubensmith8075 I was gonna make that joke
3:19 Me: WAIT A SECON- your cheating, I’m disappointed in you!
The lower route is so hard that Sega even makes a reference about it
Bruh even they know eggman us fast 2:00
1:41 "This zone was cut from the original 1992 release, but you'll be able to experience it in "Sonic Origins!" Yea Its not only on Sonic Origins, its also in the Mobile Port of Sonic 2 2013 Remastered.
Yeah making it out to be this exciting new feature when it's 9 years old
Who cares this isn’t about the mobile port jesus
@@michaelg4981 thank you I don’t play mobile don’t see why this even needs to be stated some sonic fans can be so toxic
@@Alejandro333777 I know it isn't but I just saying because the Visual's are Smooth for both Mobile & Origins but there a difference because Origin got the Genesis/Mega Drive Audio in Anniversary & Story. While Mobile has Enhanced Music, also a way get the Enhanced Music is by installing mods in Origins if you got PC or Nintendo Switch.
@@Alejandro333777 I'm not toxic, I just pointing out some things. I also respect your opinion about about it.
Wonderful video!
Heck yeah another speed strats!!
even though i fully 100%ed the game this is still fun to watch!
0:29 sounds like sonic narrating his story
HAY! I've been waiting for this trailer!
These are really entertaining.
Sonic & Tails, best friends forever! 💙💛
The beginning of the iconic Sonic friendship until now. 💙💛
Agreed pal! ^^ 💙💛
I absolutely love this game! This is the mega collection for the modern audience! I LOVE YOU SEGA!
I'd say it's more like a modern Sonic Jam. Mega Collection was a collection of emulated ROMs, so they could put more games in.
This is going to be exciting to play it
AHHH YES WHAT I NEEDED!
5:20 "I make 31 years look good"
I'm really digging these speed strat videos 👍. Wonder if Sega will keep them going beyond Origins? 🤔
after the Origins fiasco? I doubt.
3:03
They really EMBRACED THE MEME.
These cutscenes are amazing.
During my sonic 2 play through I accidentally encountered hidden palace zone. Cant believe they left it out of the original
1:51 can they settle on a name for this guy? He’s been called Silver Sonic, Robo Sonic, and now Mecha Sonic. What will he be called next?
Metal *Soniiiic!*
@@gamerlunayt robo sonic was his name in lego dimensions and sliver sonic is his name in merchandise. I like to call him silver sonic
He was called Mecha Sonic in japanese Sonic 2 manual. I think a lot of the name inconsistencies have to do with him not being named in the american manual. Like archie comics called him silver sonic and lego dimensions called him robo sonic.
It’s canon name is mecha sonic. The name Sliver sonic is from the Archie comics and robo sonic was from Lego dimensions which wasn’t made by sega. His original Japanese name was mecha sonic and in all recent media such as his figure is referred to as mecha sonic. The one from s3&k is mecha sonic mk II
He was always called Mecha Sonic. In early Sonic 2 concept art, he was labeled as Mecha Sonic (Or technically "Meca Sonic" because they were written in japanese so they probably didn't know the proper spelling). He has never once been called Silver Sonic officially, save for the comics - that was only the robot that appeared in the Game Gear/Master System version of the game. "Robo Sonic" was most likely just made up by the devs of Lego Dimensions.
Whenever the current cast of actors retires, I can rest easy knowing this Ben Schwartz sound-alike is on SEGA's speed dial
Hidden Palace Zone looks like a lot of Fun!
Aw poor rockie stuck on this part? Let a professional show you how it done!
Famous last words: 0:02
4:31 You know there's like an alternative route that you can take to avoid that water section?
True! I even made a video on how to get to the secret area.
Amazing!!
I love the special stage from this the best
2:23 rings 69 sussy
A little bit of a missed opportunity... but they could have also bring back all the other scrap zones and not just Hidden Palace Zone in or at least tribute them in by using assets from the other canceled zones in Sonic 2.
It’s Very Cool!
This series is lovely
hold still, i know challenging😂 2:45
5:17
Wait wait wait....I just noticed this, why does it say "New playable characters"? Are they gonna make a DLC that adds Amy, Metal Sonic, or another classic character or is this just bull shit?
Knuckles in the other games probably
@@GhoulishCard1319 and sonic 3 altenate opening aka knuckles version
This guy predicted it. He got it right.
3:43 A quick tip I myself discovered with the Special Stages in this game: if you jump, you’ll land on the opposite side of the half pipe. For example, if you jump at 8:00, you’ll land at 4:00 and vice versa. You can also jump in the top section of the screen when Sonic isn’t touching the half-pipe and the trick will still work, though you’ll still land back in the half-pipe. I.e., jumping at 10:00 lands at 4:00, and jumping at 2:00 lands at 8:00. Trust me, this gets a lot of use in the later Special Stages.
Now I am already hyped for The sonic the hedgehog 3 speed strats
“Next week we’re gonna talk about Sonic 3 and there’s a lot to talk about that game”
My mind wants to think Michael Jackson but realistically it’s probably just the amount of levels.
0:34 Isn't Tails a kitsune?
No, I'm pretty sure kitsunes have 6 or more tails. Tails is just a fox with a mutation 👀
@@linkybot9395 he's a matatabi

Same worst than cd
Same here, I don't like the stages at all!
It’s ok tho I’ve won them back by now lol
Noob, I remember all stage
