I think this is a good game, it's slightly better than Sonic 1, the pacing is better, I like Sonic being able to peel out, I definitely like the soundtrack and the music slaps hard in the Japanese soundtrack, I especially like Stardust speedway (though I think Palmtree panic or Collision chaos are better), the problems with this game are in the special stages I should've hit a UFO but then it's like it goes right through Sonic and not to mention his turn speed is slow, and when you go into the water, the timer drains quickly, really? And I despise wacky workbench, too much bouncing but over all Solid game!
Sonic CD is the best sonic the hedgehog game of all time. as much as the console/add-on it was made for stank like 3 week old cheeseburger, but out from manure grows beautiful flowers.
In this game, we are introduced to Amy rose/princess sally, who is kidnapped by metal sonic. so sonic has to rescue her, and destroy something known as the death egg. along the way, sonic picks up time stones which send him back in time, back to when the zone was primitive, and the future stones, which take him to the future, whether it be a good future, or a future in which Robotnik/Eggman rules the zone.
This game is considered by screwattack.com to be the best sonic game of all time, and rightfully so. according to them, "Sonic CD takes everything you like about sonic 1 and 2, and gave them upgrades." and later on states "It's just like super paper Mario, but 15 years Earlier!"
So trust me, if you have a gamecube, a sega CD, or a PC, get a hold of this game. you'll be thanking me when you're done.

This PC CD-ROM and Sega CD game is graphically like the Sega Genesis games, but it has an awesome CD soundtrack with "new fangled" music. If you're looking for a revolutionary Sonic game, try this (it's included with Sonic Gems Collection for GameCube). It was sorely overlooked. Your new enemy is Metal Sonic, as well as Dr. Robotnik/Eggman. The underwater-type zone is still there. It's called Tidal Tempest. One of the boss levels (in the Collison Chaos zone) is reminiscent of Sonic Spinball. The PC version doesn't work with any OS over Windows 98. But if your old junker still has got that, give this one a try. It's really worth it.
Sonic CD is a clear example of classic Sonic gaming. I mean, it was so good, it was even re-released in 2011! It also marks the first appearances of well known characters like Metal Sonic. It features classic game-play and it is easy to play if you are a beginner. If you're a Sonic fan, old or new, it is essential to have this title. Even the graphics themselves, although they are old compared to today's, are beautiful and a technological achievement for 1993. The game even looks polished today and provides a good retro service. The music is very catchy. I recommend the Japanese/European track but the American one is good too. The only possibly bad thing about this game is that sometimes, especially in the special stages, it is quite hard. But other than that, Sonic CD is a great game and is an essential title for any Sonic fan.

I remember getting Sonic CD for my Computer when I was kid and enjoying it, the only problem was that my PC kept crashing while I was playing the game so I couldn't fully play the game. I still kept the game has a memento, years later I acquired Sonic Gems Collection for the Playstation 2 which contained Sonic CD. ( As well as Sonic the Fighters, Sonic R, a bunch of Game gear games, Vectorman and Vectorman 2.) Playing Sonic CD now I still think it's one of the best games in the Sonic series, it's got great music, a cool opening anime scene and ending, great levels, good boss fights and it introduces one of the most popular villains in the Sonic Francise: Metallix (Metal Sonic), Sonic CD also introduces another ally in Sonic's crew, Amy Rose.
The game play is easy to pick up especially for those that's played the other 2D Sonic games, a nice little addition to this Sonic game is the time travel feature since in every level there are poles that either say Past or Future. Running into one will allow you to warp through time but to do that you need to run really fast without stopping. Like the other Sonic games this one also has a bonus stage, in Sonic CD you need to destroy a certain amount of UFO's to collect the prize. In other Sonic games after completing a bonus stage you get Chaos Emerleds while in this one it's Time Stones.
Sonic CD is a great game that should be played. Check this out. 10/10

Did you know
- TriviaAt any point in the game, if you leave Sonic standing perfectly still (without pausing the game), after three minutes he'll say: "I'm outta here!" and race off the screen. This ends your game.
- GoofsThe manual to the game's North American and PAL versions for the Sega CD version incorrectly refers to Amy Rose as "Princess Sally" like the said character in the SatAM cartoons. This was corrected for later ports of this game.
- Quotes
Sonic: I'm outta here!
- Crazy creditsDuring the end of the credits, we see Sonic's adventures in the Little Planet in anime form.
- Alternate versionsThe Sega Saturn game "Sonic Jam" and the "Gems" port of the game have the anime introduction of this game but with different footage of Sonic reaching the Little Planet which is not in the Mega CD/Sega CD version.
