And why?
well the pc version, as usual, gets mods
i've never really had a problem with the game running, and with a controller, it feels really good. so I say that you ignore this negative asshat and buy it - the battle dlc is worth it too as it unlocks more for free I believe, but meh
I get what you mean this is not an ideal port, playable, but definitely not good, BUT ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ this is not what i call a "godaweful" port. Have you seen Devil may cry 3 SE here on steam? OOOOOH BOY you cant even begin to play that port without modding it, and control support? dont even get me started on how frustrating it is even with an xbox controller om dmc 3. SO, is this game the worst PC? no. is it the best? hardly. but it's still even better than nothing if you have got a laptop and want Chao's and speedy action on the go. So yes I'd recommend it somewhat, but still, SOnic Daventure 2 is definitely better on ps3 xbox and gamecube
Don't know about you but I have a 8GB ram computer with a AMD processor and it runs this game perfectly fine with my Xbox One Controller with not a single lag/speedup issues with the framerate. I've beaten the story mode 100% by the way. So I would of notice something should of gone wrong though out the whole PC port. So it might not support certain graphic cards or maybe even processors on some computers.
(Edit)
Forgot to mention I also run a ton of programs at once. Like Teamviewer, Fraps along with a bunch of Google chrome apps eating up my cpu memory. And I have not a single problem what so ever. So it might be an issues on certain processors. My friend does have the laggy issues as well as you do. So its not a game without its flaws. Just makes me wonder what causes it to have problems on certain computers. While other computers it runs flawless entirely.
Man play Devil May Cry 3 and Grand Theft Auto San Andrea along with some good old Guitar Hero 3. Trust me, compare to Sonic Adventure 2 for PC. These ports are MUCH, MUCH worse then this. I also own every sonic game on steam. And I will be dead honest with you. I've not had a single issue with none of them.
And to show you that this game runs perfectly fine. I made a video the day I bought it on steam.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-LF9kwBzCGw&list=UUPMsgbTAI99o15dNASuN8Iw
And with Fraps recording it. (Known to be the biggest memory hog out of most programs) And it kept it at a steady 60FPS.
No configurations was added. Straight boot up and play. Not a single framerate issue or anything. Do keep in mind though. At the time of buying the game I had no controller. So I was using a keyboard at the time. Also this game has been tested on two different laptops and tower PC's. Same performance and not a single issue. The video was recorded on a Gateway laptop at the time. with much lower specs. Including 4GB of ram and a intel processor with a Intel HD Family graphic chip. So it runs fine on AMD and Intel from my experience.
"No configurations was added. Straight boot up and play."
Booted it up and it runs like it should run. I did not do anything on any of the 3 computers I own.
And yes, San Andreas was a horrible port. The game was updated to 3.0 for Steam by Rockstar. Yet they could not add Xinput. The players themself had to add that to allow Xbox 360 controllers. Yet the Xbox 360 release that came out before the Steam release worked just fine with Xbox 360 controllers.
If you alt-tab out of San Andrea and stay out of it for a certain amount of time. It will crash. Rockstar added a "Frame limiter" to the game. Yet when you turn it off the game tends to glitch up on missions that needs to keep it at its steady 28 FPS. And yes, you probably already know this. But the FPS limit for San Andrea was limited to 28 FPS for PC release. unless you turn off the frame limiter. or mod it to allow 30 FPS with frame limiter that the PS2 version had.
As for Sonic Adventure 2. I have yet to see an issue on the 3 computers I play it on. I also forgot to mention my Sony Vaio laptop I had a long time ago that could play this with a older Intel HD Family graphic card along with only 2GB of ram. I honestly can't see this game as a bad port if it can run perfectly fine on all 3 of my older laptops while my tower PC is a MUCH more powerful computer compared to my laptops. Plus you can tell that the game was being run for the first time ever. Because I started a new game, got though the first act and got 2 achievements. So it runs amazing for me and I've had yet to see it crash or have a choppy framerate issue in all of the levels I've played for Hero. Dark Side And the Last Story.
I'm not saying this game is perfect. But calling it a straight up ♥♥♥♥♥♥ port is just silly.
After reading this. I have no reason to convince you any further. My points up there has been proven. If you are gonna go ahead and mention someone forgetting to put a single period. Makes you look bad. Along with being somewhat a troller or in other words, you are just simply flaming a player for no good reason. And I do own Saintrow 2 and 3 by the way. I forgot to mention that speedup glitch it has in Saintow 2. But whatever, I rest my case. You are one of those people who will continue making post till I have nothing more to comment about. As for Grand Theft Auto San Andrea. Like I also mention from another post. My friend can't barely run Sonic Adventure 2 as well. But I can run it just perfectly fine. You can run Grand Theft Auto San Andrea just fine. But I can't run it well for my life without fixups. And no, it does not have support for Xinput. If you look closely to the Xbox 360 or the Xbox One controller. The right analog stick does not work along with the two trigger buttons. So you either have to use Joy2Key or any other programs that programs the remote into a keyboard. Or you gotta go to this post here to get a mod that allows Xinput.

Also for saying this.
"Edit: By the way, stop editing your reviews."
I love how I never even mention this was a review. Second I see that, well, let me just quote it for you.
"Last edited by [CalanTrans] Das (Reading... 1 hour ago"
What a hypocrite. Anyway due to the way you behaved. I won't be responding anymore to you.
Good day.
I'm sorry, but I guess I do need to respond to you. What was you're question that you ask. Because I could of sworn I answer everything I could. And you rest your case? please. You never rested it at all. And I been editing constantly, so why would I stop from after you saying "Edit: By the way, stop editing your reviews." Man oh man, you keep throwing this discussion all over the place. Sure I mention other games. But atleast I gone back to the topic. But you also flamed Leonardo. So it makes you a bad person to discuss things over forums for just that fact. And I never said anything about you're recommendation. I only commented on the fact you are pretty much calling this a terrible port. When in reality, this is not a bad port at all. You can continue again to have the last word if you choose too. Also the video was pointless and you we're throwing it off topic from just that video.
When you mention "I rest my case" you had no case. You had no case to start with. And I thought I answering everything. But let me just go over everything once again.
Sonic Adventure 2 runs just fine on 4 computers I own. First being a Sony Vaio that only has 2GB of ram along with a Intel i3 processor with a Intel HD Family graphic chip built into it and it ran smooth as butter. Second ran perfectly smooth with my Gateway laptop with 4GB of ram with the same Intel i3 processor but with a much more updated Intel HD Family Chip. Third my current laptop which is 8GB of ram with a AMD quadcore along with Radeon Graphics. Runs this game Well you guess it, smooth as butter. And my main tower PC has 16GB of ram with Intel i7 processor as well a Nvidia Geforce graphic card. And guess what, it runs smooth. So yeah, forgot to mention my tower PC specs. But whatever atleast Sonic Adventure 2 Battle runs on all four computers I own from my test runs. So I don't know what would be causing the framerate issue for certain computers. But atleast four of my computers runs it like it should.
Well that finally covered. Now to the next part.
I never edit any of the games settings. All I did was simply. Buy Sonic Adventure 2, Download it. Let it finish downloading. Start it up and then start up the game. Leaving everything to default. And well what do you know. It ran like it should.
And later on I bought a Xbox 360 controller. Worked like a charm after plugging it in and it ran fine. Then bought a Xbox 360 wireless controller. Worked perfectly after getting the receiver for the PC. Then a year pass and I bought the Xbox One controller. Plug it in, and it acts as if its a Xbox 360 controller in Sonic Adventure 2. So that works perfectly.
So I don't know what else to answer. But I believe this is all I can give you. Calan. At this time being Sonic Adventure 2 battle has issues on some computers. And till someone explains why this is happening. You and I are gonna get nowhere in this topic.
"I'm sorry, but I guess I do need to respond to you."
I already mention it for you. And who said this was a win or lose topic. Good god man, you are making yourself into a joke from all these responses you are giving out. Oh well. you never even read my post. So this shall be my final response to you.
