Hi there all, just been playing on my old Dreamcast lately, and thought I had a pretty good time for Windy Valley with Tails, until I saw all the times here and started wondering how it was possible to be so fast. I thought my 1:18:-- was good. Then I started thinking about it logically, and worked out a way. I've just hit 00:30:01, and still practicing my approach.

My question is this. Does the Gamecube (*IF* I get it, I'll probably stick to console) version have any significant upgrades in terms of, well, namely draw distance. One of my biggest issues is that I can't see where the bridges are until they start drawing. But I figure the Gamecube version would draw them much sooner than a Dreamcast.

But the wider topic I'm interested in is; What differences exist, in terms of gameplay (not special features) between the original version, and the new release of DX.

Have a great one. :)

Ahh, thanks for that. I haven't yet had a chance to read the entire forum listing, and I was planning on going to bed. But, then I just couldn't put down Tails in Casinopolis, and well, here I am hours later. (SA + Free time = O_o)

I may just pick up Sonic DX next time I'm in the States (not out here in Aus) to compare the differences.

Except for the draw distance in Tail's windy valley and a certain shortcut in Sonic's final egg, the original SA is waayy better for time attacking.
