The PC version of Sonic R was notably improved over the Saturn original, and was later included in Sonic Gems Collection. Regardless, it still made people feel like they were pushing a cinder block across a rubber floor using a pen cap.

Leftover Direct3D Test Menu

For some reason, the executable contains the menu from a very old Direct3D test program.

And some accelerator keys for these functions:

'About' Box

The 'About' dialogue box is still in the executable, and can be accessed with a resource hacker.

Network Mode

Sonic R had a post-release patch that added networking support. (You know, because the game was going to be all the rage at LAN parties). As it turns out, an early version of this shipped in the retail game, accessible via memory editor. Obviously, it suffers from a few shortcomings compared to the patched version.

Only TCP/IP works; IPX just dings at you. In addition, you cannot enter an IP address or have a name other than 'Player'.

Despite this, everything still works quite swimmingly. You can select a course and a character and play against a friend, so long as they happen to be on the same computer as you.

Unused Graphics

There's unused menu graphics. They're not all that interesting, but they're there.

The 'Player X In' labels went unused; the 'Joystick/Keyboard X' labels were used instead.

The graphics for the network mode went unused as, of course, the entire network mode went unused. Curiously, the final build of the network patch went for a text-based interface.

These relatively non-descriptive letters for the menu models were replaced with actual icons. Also, there's a bunch of randomly placed palettes for whatever reason.

Some unused animated icons for the different time attack modes of Sonic R. These were replaced with smaller versions of the main menu models, which is a darn shame because these look really cool. Also, there's a couple of scribbles in the margins for good measure.

There's a placeholder 'SAVE' menu option for the results screen along with its background. Surprisingly, it's infinitely more readable than the actual choices, probably due to it not looking like it's behind an inch of solid ice.

The main menu graphics contain an icon for the unused Network mode, cobbled together from the default Windows 95 graphics. It's certainly more informative than the bunch of question marks, anyways. It did go used in the Network patch.

Oddities

Window Caption

If you force windowed mode using D3DWND or another DirectX windowing program and choose Direct3D, the caption will read SonicR by Traveler's Tales, but if you choose DirectDraw it will read BackBuffer.

This cannot be seen normally because the game always runs at fullscreen.

Out of Bounds Objects

For whatever reason all the levels have balloons placed out-of-bounds.

This also applies to most other objects as well.

Strangely, the GameCube and PC versions seem to differ in where these balloons are located.

Challenge Race Vs. Tails

If you somehow get five Sonic tokens on Radiant Emerald (impossible without cheating due to it lacking said tokens), you get challenged to race against Tails.

If you were playing as Tails, it would be Sonic instead. This is because the game never sets the opponent for Radiant Emerald, so it just reuses whoever the second player was during the Grand Prix race.

EggRobo Texture Goof

For whatever reason, the texture on EggRobo's gun got botched in the conversion between the Saturn and the PC. The texture of the part next to the trigger was erroneously replaced with the top of Tails' eye.

This was carried over to the Gems Collection release, which would be surprising if it weren't for the fact that not a single person cared about EggRobo, let alone knew what his name was.

Ready, Set, Go!

In English, at the start of a game, the words 'Ready', 'Set', and 'Go' are displayed. For some reason, in French, German, Spanish, and Italian, these words are not translated and the process is instead represented by 'traffic lights'.

Debugging Strings

There are a lot of debugging strings littered about Sonic R. These strings are loaded in various parts in key subroutines in the code right before a null sub. In some revisions of the Network Patch, this null sub is replaced by a printf-like routine that outputs the debug info to a text log.

This is mostly useful during graphics initialization: (this is a small excerpt of a large log.)

It also announces every time it calls a major subroutine, which makes making a disassembly slightly easier. It's oddly nice to know that even the programmers just called all the files that make up the title screen 'stuff'.

Attempting to list every single such string would not be easy, as there are a lot.

Unused Strings

There are strings that do not appear to be used, or at least are never referred to directly by any active code. A weird amount of these refer to features or files that no longer exist. (This is not all of them, as there are simply too many strings to sort through, but it's a sizable portion nevertheless.)

Disc Building Readme

Found only on the German 'Green Pepper' release in the readme.txt file is a changelog detailing some of the changes in the 2004 release, as well as instructions meant for whoever is in charge of placing the files on the disc. Humorously, part of these instructions was to not include this file.

While it did make its way to PC and later consoles, Sonic R was the only exclusive (at the time) Sonic the hedgehog game that the Sega Saturn would get in its lifetime. It is a game that has a very mixed fan base with some enjoying it and others ranking it as one of the worst Sonic games ever to be released. I fall on the side of that this is an ok game, but it does take a lot of dedication in order to get the best out of it.

Fast And Smooth

Sonic R Pc Windows 10 Full

I want to start by talking about one of the aspects of the game I think is good and that is the presentation. Sonic is all about speed and Sonic R captures that speed very well. The game moves at a fast pace and there is very little pop in compared with other games of this era so I give it props for that.

There are only five tracks in this game! I know that may sound crazy, but to be fair the original Ridge Racer only had one (with variations) and people let that slide. While five tracks is not many. They counter this by making them huge and very non-linear with many ways to get to the end and many secret areas to find. Plus, these tracks capture the Sonic world perfectly. You only have four characters at the start of the game, Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Amy, but you can unlock a few more such as the strange, but awesome Metal Knuckles which I do not think has appeared anywhere else.

Super Sonic Racing

Let’s talk about the soundtrack. I think that one of the coolest aspects of Sonic R is the soundtrack, I freaking love the soundtrack. While I can say that I like it, I can see why for some people the soundtrack may not be to their taste. It was not like anything else we had experienced in a Sonic game before and I appreciated that, plus it had that super catchy song…. You know the one I am talking about.

I Wish I Loved You!

I do feel that this is a game that has a lot going for it. I liked the fact that the single-player championship mode has a bit of a story to it. I liked how you unlocked characters in this mode as well. I also liked how you could play with friends to take part in time trials or burst balloons if you want. So, while there are not many tracks, Sega really gets the best out of them.

The problem is that the controls of Sonic R are best described as twitchy. When you are at high speeds, the controls can be very sensitive which can make taking corners really tough. I do think that the controls are manageable once you get the hang of them. It just takes a great deal of time and patience to do that and as I am a huge Sonic fan, I am willing to do this. I can see why others would not want to bother.

I can see why Sonic R is a game that some people do not like. It is a very, very hard game to love and requires a great deal of patience from the player to get to grips with the controls. With that being said, I do feel that this game is nowhere near as bad as some people make out. I for one, would loved to have seen Sega try and make another game like this on the Dreamcast! It may not be perfect, but this is a game I have always managed to have a good time with.
