Probably should've cleared this up already, but I've already played SA2 on the GC.
Dang, my bad. I didn't know you played SA2 already on GC. :roll:

Get SA1. The DC version and the GC version don't have many points about them that are that better than the other, however the GC version of SA1 is a lot more like the two versions of SA2 in some ways than the original gameplay of SA1, and if you've already played 2, 1 on the DC should be a fresher experience. The two versions of SA2, on the other hand, aren't nearly as varied, and definitely doesn't warrant a second purchase.

Is that a 3DS XL in your pocket, or are you just glad to see me? ~ZeroAX

While I loved SA2 when I got it back in the day, I cant stand the non Sonic levels now. The gem finding levels with Knuckles and Rouge are slow and boring, and the Tails/ Eggman levels are just button mashing the fire button. The Sonic/Shadow levels however, are excellent.
That's exactly how I feel. I used to love the whole game for the most part, but the older I get the less I see to like in the Sonic Adventure games. Nowadays I just load up my old completed save games and play nothing except the Sonic/Tails stages in SA1 and the Sonic/Shadow stages in SA2.

Actually, and again probably should've cleared this up earlier, but I've played SA1 on the DC and GC haha. :)
