Download some Up-converted Classic Sonic Goodness
From our friends at FastFeet Media today comes word that those animated FMV sequences from Sonic CD have been up-converted to High Definition for your viewing pleasure.
In total, six editions, spanning the game’s open and close across all regions, including the Sonic Jam edit, are now available on FFM. Before you choose to download, an area is available for you to stream the content.
Says FFM’s Graham Seward on it:
Thanks to TheBuilder from soniconthenet.org who actually compiled together a special Sonic CD DVD (worth checking out), we took that and made it into HD (High Defintion) and thanks to our encoding technology these have to be the highest quality versions of the Sonic CD Opening and Ending videos, including some footage you may not have seen! 6 Videos below 3 Opening videos and 3 ending videos.
TSSZ News had reported on the aforementioned DVD back in April.













This is old, but still awesome.
Doh! Just read the last line!
@_@
PEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERFECT!!!
What exactly is the point of this? Any decent video player is able to upscale the original video file to your monitor’s resolution. All I see this doing is wasting bandwidth and/or disk space.
So some dude decided to upscale the cutscenes and call it HD.
Yawn.
…FU Gerbil!
Fantastic… they are great
I haven’t downloaded them yet, but if the streaming videos are anything to go by it’s not as impressive as I expected. I would have said the versions in Sonic Gems Collection were better.
am i the only one surprised soniconthenet.org is still going? lol i remember waaaaay back when before it underwent the change and the tracker still had a lot of life to it. I miss those days.
I have a question, in Sonic Unleashed Xbox360º version, I have already finished the game 3 times (play all stages, if you know what i mean) but the last continent is still “away from Mobius”(isn’t restored yet :S ), what should I do to restor it :S man I dont’ know what can I do more :S , it doesn’t matter anyway SONIC UNLEASHED RULES
PROJECT NEEDLEMOUSE YOUR THE NEXT BIGGEST SONIC GAME EVER
kick ass!
@SU: Sorry, can’t help you. Have the wii version and there are no such thing there…
blueblur@: hehe I’m a guy blueblur and thank you
blueblur you own a Xbox 360 right can you give me your friend code (I don’t know if that the right name but anyway) ?

SONICCCC
werehog@: Thank U anyway Werehog
@Sonic Unleashed:
I have the 360 version of Sonic Unleashed and I’ve beaten it; the last continent doesn’t go back into place for some reason after the story has been completed in that version, and oddly enough, the last continent does goes into place on the wii/ps2 versions.
■gamelordabd@: Oh that explains everything lool thank you man
If you want to play with me online on Xbox Live or something just contact me over here xD
@Sonic Unleashed:
No problem. Sadly I don’t have Xbox Live yet. I currently own the Arcade version of the 360 and I need I hard drive(Cuz I want the downloadable content for unleashed and next gen) and an Xbox Live Subscription, etc.
I have now downloaded one of the videos and I must say I retract my previous comment. I am amazed by the job that has been done here! Especially when the original files were of such poor quality!
