I have Part 1 on PS2 (I find this one REAAAAALLLY ****ing hard) and Part 2 on PC and PS3. Both in my top 10 best games, like, ever never ever forever.
Well they wouldn't really need to remaster part 1 because they never remastered part 2. Also apart from the fact you said it was hard, is it still a good game.

I really wouldn't call that a remaster, the same goes with Sega Bass Fishing, Crazy Taxi and Sonic Adventure/DX. They just seem like the same good old Dreamcast graphics.

k, calling Sonic Adventure a remaster would be a stretch, but SC5 P2 got all HD'd and widescreen'd. That is what one calls a remaster.

It's not a full remake, obviously.

Well yeah I suppose you are right with Sonic Adventure but I was mentioning all the games on the Dreamcast Collection. Also remastered games are not really classed as a remake.

That's... what I was saying. SC5 got remastered because it has higher quality textures, is all widescreen, is all HD, etc.

That is what a remaster is.

No, I was just saying that SC5 HD was not a remake since you were implying that it wasn't a remaster even though it is so I assumed that you thought that remasters were remakes.

...

Anyone able to make sense of that post wins a prize.

It's a great game! But it only has four levels in the main game, so the difficulty amps up VERY quickly.
