This is a playthrough of Sonic Adventure 2: Battle for PC, including the Hero, Dark, and Last stories, as well as the Kart Race minigame and the secret unlockable final stage (timestamps below).

SANIC AVENSHURE TOOOOOOOOOO! SANIC! SANIC!

In 2001, SEGA decided to release a follow-up to their flagship Dreamcast title starring our ~favourite~ blue hedgehog, and an evil artificially created hedgehog who looks nothing like him - but that doesn't stop the military from mistaking the two!

Regardless of the very obvious flaws, Sonic Adventure 2 is my favourite game I've ever played and since I'm recording the game for the eventual HFC commentary I figured I'd upload the non-commentary gameplay here, as my old run hasn't aged too well.

The PC port admittedly isn't perfect. If you have a high refresh rate monitor you'll need to cap the framerate to 60 yourself with something like RivaTuner otherwise the game will run faster than it's supposed to, and there are a handful of other rough edges throughout, like inconsistent resolutions for cutscenes (with some using pillarboxing which, hilariously, doesn't -quite- reach the top of the screen).

It's still a convenient way to play SA2, however, which for someone who grew up in PAL-land is something I'm grateful for.
