Sonic R is the first Sonic game ever made to utilize 3D graphics for its gameplay, and the third Sonic racing title published by Sega. Right after Sonic 3D Blast was made, Sega turned again to Traveller’s Tales to produce another technical marvel. The level design is amazing; rewarding exploration while reminding of previous Sega titles like NiGHTS: Into Dreams. The soundtrack is fantastic due to its CD-ROM quality; and the first Sonic title to feature vocal tracks in the music. It is one of the most graphically demanding titles for the Saturn; see how It compares to its PC counterpart.
There are 4 characters to choose from; including Sonic, Tails and Knuckles. There is a slew of characters to unlock including Dr. Robotnik “Eggman”, Metal Sonic and a creepy doll that looks like Tails. Each track is filled with alternate routes and collectibles, including the 7 iconic Emeralds that allow Sonic to transform into Super Sonic.
Sonic R has a lot of replay value, as you’ll race the same track a dozen times trying to get all the collectibles. The PC version has aged well; and can be played in HD resolutions! Highly recommend to all Sonic fans.

i used to love playing this game. really really fun

It works perfectly 👍
Sun killed me
I can't feel the sunshine
Can you see? The sun is shinin' on me
It makes me feel so free, so alive
It makes me want to survive
And the sky, it makes me feel so high
The bad times pass me by
'cause today is gonna be a brighter day
Can you feel the sunshine?
Does it brighten up your day?
Don't you feel that sometimes
You just need to run away?
Reach out for the sunshine
Forget about the rain
Just think about the good times
And they will come back again
Feel the sunshine...
Without you, there's nothing for me to do
Can you feel the sunshine, too?
It's comin' through; it makes me feel brand new
When you're here, I wish you were always near
'cause everything's so clear
And today is gonna be a brighter day
Can you feel the sunshine?
Does it brighten up your day?
Don't you feel that sometimes
You just need to run away?
Reach out for the sunshine
Forget about the rain
Just think about the good times
And they will come back again
When the sun goes down
I feel like I am waiting
For another day
When the clouds go away
Can you feel it?
Ooh-hoo...
Can you feel it?
Oh...
Can you feel it?
Oh...
Can you feel it?
Can you feel the sunshine?
Does it brighten up your day?
Brighten up your day...
Don't you feel that sometimes
We just need to run away?
Reach out for the sunshine
Forget about the rain
Just think about the good times
And they will come back again
Can you feel the sunshine?
Does it brighten up your day?
Brighten up your day...
Don't you feel that sometimes
You just need to run away?
You just need to run away...
Reach out for the sunshine
Forget about the rain
Just think about the good times
And they will come back again
Can you feel the sunshine?
Can you feel it?
Does it brighten up your day?
Brighten up your day...
Don't you feel that sometimes
We just need to run away?
Need to run away...
Reach out for the sunshine
Reach out...
Forget about the rain
Just think about the good times
And they will come back again
Whoa-oh-oh-oh...
Brighten up your day...
You just need to run away...
Reach out, you gotta reach out...
Come back again...
You gotta reach out...

i have completed both the pc AND the gems collection version. i am not satisfied enough. my duty is not fullfilled. i must finish the saturn version and complete the trilogy. then i can summon tails doll
O jogo está com as músicas funcionando? E o jogo funciona normalmente no recalbox? Tenho o emulador do Saturn no meu recalbox.
very good game, awesome too! i recommend it for everyone who likes sonic, classic games, and racing.
hey its me average commenter,(changed names) finally got it to work by fiddling around with it a bit
eu quero jogar Sonic r
let's get this game ported to psvita girlies
i downloaded the game, and also installed the updater from gamebanana and it works! only problem is that the only thing i can access is the options menu. https://files.catbox.moe/tr0gz4.png how do i fix it?
Works great, Thanks to the uploader and props to the dude in the comments for dummies like me.
LETS DO DIS!
tails doll stuff is all fake don't believe it
it's not 2010s or 2000s
you should have windows 98 to make it work or a patch on a modern computer
if the game doesnt work on windows xp click over and over until it work on the application it can take day months but its work
Because the game is cool and the game was cool when i played it.
Quero ver o tails dol na minha casa
Eu gosto de sonic R pelo tails doll quero ver ele anoite na minha casa e to com medo😢😥😥 eu sou jax
so here is the thing:
the tails doll curse doesnt exist,it's a lie that internet told you,so stop saying that it's creepy.it's
just a doll.
is tails doll evil because I summon tails Doll and I serviced and can you feel the sunshine Dose it Brighten up your Day don't summon the tails Doll!

the game is opening but the controls are not working, i can't even get out of the title screen, i tried everything i could, i read the manual, i reinstalled the game, i downloaded the fixed E.X.E. I don't know what else to do
wich file is better? i swear it wont open
Hi please exe file run and fast
@blaine kenel its not a dos game
ME GUSTA SONIC R POR EL TAILS
It downloads as a .bin file , HOW TO DOWNLOAD?
it wont start?
what is c'mon
I played this game since i was a little kid at my babysitter's house on computer.
I can't control it on the title screen,
If you are having errors with Sonic R (no music, can't press start, etc, etc.) Download the Sonic R Updater from here: https://gamebanana.com/tools/6325
You're Lying! Tails Doll Has Really Haunted Me! I Can't Control On Title Screen, I Can't Get Rid Of An Error. Pretty Much A Virus.
yeah this game is good but can u erase the creepy one
sonic 1 es una obra maestra y el siempre estara en mi recuerdos y en mi escritorio
any idea why i could only enter the option, i can't even play the racing mode let alone multiplayer, three out of four at the main menu were X, already use Sonic R Updater but still didn't fix the problem, any idea why did this happen ?
hello fellow retro gamers i am back with this tutorial
so if you want to play sonic r in a modern pc you cannot but there's a great workaround that i am going to show you
1. download rip/iso version (havent tested on retrobox)
2. extract to a folder of your choice
3. once it's done go to the internet and search sonic r updater
4. the first result will mostly be gamebanana, a popular modding site. click the result. once your on the website, a tl;dr description will appear before the download, and once your done reading, there is a download button. download.
5. once its done downloading, click on the .exe and be greeted with a setup.
6. if your in a certain point at the setup, it will ask you where to install the update. pick whereever is your sonic r directory, then install.
7. once it's done, a useful program will come with the installer, named sonic r mod manager. it has cheats menu in which it does some coding in the game for the cheat you want. (i.e. ring gates don't take away rings, sonic r and knuckles)
8. run the game and play! the update comes with music, so you can enjoy your full sonic r experience.
olá sou leleo jogo roblox e plants vs zombies mas a musica can you feel sunshine ? e melhoda minha vida
I like this PC game alongside other classic sonic games.
The tails doll...
For all of those who are wondering about missing soundtracks;
The game is using the CD for music, but the program for sound effects. You're not gonna get any music from the RIP version.
I would like to do it! But it was downloading Hehe...
Is it just me or does this game not have music?? It was literally one of the best things in the game D:
if you open this, your screen literally crunches down to 640x480 resolution. just press the windows key, click settings, then click system, then scroll down until you see "display resolution" just change it back to your normal resolution. also use sonic r updater lmao
If you guys have problems with running the game, then watch this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChTn2S2DSS4. It's the definitive way to play this game. Have Fun :).
dis game is great the program "DXWND" helped me to play da game thank you my abandonware :-)
The game doesn't work for me.):
I Like Sonic R I watched a person playing it on YouTube see you later bye bye
so when i started to play the game my screen got small so i don't know how to get screen back to normal someone help me lmao
when i just start to play the game my screen got small so i don't know how to put the screen to normal
this is a awesome game and special for me
It works :)
does not work is bugging
Listen,i'd like you to tell me..... WHO IN THE WORLD CREATED THAT CREEPY FREAK TAILS DOLL! Yo,seriously who would create such..... A CREEPY FREAK LIKE TAILS DOLL!!!!!!!
Can you put Sonic R on the Ios and Android
i like ds game! i well tell all my generals to blay it!
I Kinda Grown Up With Sonic R The Music Damn Amazing
Working in Windows 10?
does this realy work?
The only reason i got this came is for the Tails Doll curse lmao
Why am I not in this game?
I'm using my Windows 7
Ita was mya bed
Now mya computera isa deada
I want to know whats the diference on the downloads...and whats is recommended
Just a quick notice: If you download the RIP version, do not run unless you entirely know what you are doing. On Windows 10, it changes the display resolution, and on Windows XP it changes the colour mode to 8-Bit. BE CAREFUL
All I want to know is can I play Sonic R with a modern computer that plays discs?
Sonic R was that pc game I always played at my grandmothers house. She had a Dell tower with Sonic 3&Knuckles and Sonic R. Of course I always played Sonic R. Its games like these that makes me miss the past, where dlc wasn't a thing or wireless connection. You had to go to your friend's house and sit with them and play games. Reminds me of when I got my first gamecube, I couldn't put Sonic Adventure 2 and Sonic Gem's Collection down, not even Sonic mega collection. This game brings me great nostalgia and it makes me happy to download it again, thanks guys. :)
lesten up everybody
i solved the controls problem
in the game's folder open the joystick.inf
delete everything in it
write "keyboard"
close it
rename the file "keyboard"
hope you good luck
Sonic R may not have the best controls, but the games does have some great graphics and one of the best game soundtracks ever. Speaking of graphics, the player can choose one of two different texture styles: DirectDraw (Sega Saturn textures) and Direct3D.
i need to know the command i use to open sonic R, i don't do dos. sorry for asking but please tell me. thank you
what is the command i use, i'm not that much of a computer king but all i need now is the command, ive used SonicR.EXE SONICR.EXE sonicR.EXE and more please tell me the command i use in dos box!
what are the controls
WHAT IS CONTROLS ?!
For the people who are having problems with the controls,here is the problem,I heard the controls for the keyboard don't work on modren day PCs (windows 7, stuff like that) but there are some patches for it, but older PCs ( windows XP, windows 95/98, stuff like that) the controls are fine.
¿cuales son los controles con el teclado?
wow
juego tan cool no paro de jugar con tails doll
wow thats a cool game
