Game modes:Single player
Story:Sonic Adventure is a 3D platformer video game in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. The player can control six characters from the Sonic universe, each with their own gameplay and point of view of the story. The game is divided up into two types of levels: Action Stages and Adventure Fields. The division of Action Stages and Adventure Fields are a serious departure from all previous Sonic games. Adventure Fields are non-linear game stages that contain very few items, generally designed for puzzle solving, exploration and plot advancement. Action Stages are more speed based and have Rings scattered in them. Sonic Adventure was the top-selling Dreamcast game and received a sequel in 2001, marking the 10th anniversary of the Sonic the Hedgehog series.Show more

Please let SEGA port the original for once... DX is an awful port by all accounts and SA1 needs a second look on a version that isn't horribly broken. As much of a pipe dream I think this is given SEGA's insistence on porting the horrid DX version, I'm holding out hope this can get SA1 the much needed do-over it deserves, because it plays great on the original Dreamcast and I'm tired of people judging it based on it's botched port jobs.

Sonic Adventure is in a weird spot. It's remembered by being that buggy game that everyone laughed at way before Sonic 06 was even a thing. And this is because of the Remaster version, Sonic Adventure DX Director's cut. I won't sugar coat it. SADX was awfull and it just gives the game a bad name. However, the original Sonic Adventure is still stuck on the Dreamcast and is high quality. This is the version that we should have gotten and I think now is the time to replace DX with the better version of this game.

The original Dreamcast version of Sonic Adventure is by far and away the definitive version of the game that later ports and remasters could sadly never live up to I remember one faithful Christmas where I got my own Sega Dreamcast along with this game and it's sequel
Sonic Adventure was the big reason why I wanted a Sega Dreamcast back in the day. Just to see Sonic in 3D and be able to play through those stages in such environment was mind blowing. Granted, Nintendo did it first with Mario, but just to blast through the stages at fast speeds (with the exception of a few characters you get to play as) was an absolute joy. If this ever makes it to GOG, please let it be the International release of the game and not Japanese original that Sega seems to love to port over with the DX release time and again.

Freelancer
FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.
