I still prefer the first game. it seems like the emphasis was more on speed in the second game and its a little harder to appreciate the graphics. still, Casino Night is one of my favorite levels in any video game. there was a ton of excellent parallax scrolling throughout Sonic 2 and generally one of the best looking games of its generation
Nice, yeah going into the final battle with no rings can make it a death fest. I'll admit, most of my runs through Sonic 2 end at Metropolis Zone Act 3, where the enemy placement suddenly becomes exceptionally trollish. Up until that point it is definitely a breeze, even for me!
