This game is going to be a disaster, I know it. I have a feeling there is going to be a crazy mechanic that is not Sonic based and it'll be repainting the game world.

I just wonder how they're going to explain why the hell there are two Sonics now. Most likely it will be some alternate universe type storyline but knowing Sega classic Sonic will end up being new Sonic's son from the future or something.

Wouldn't that be how it is? They decide that canonically the old games were in the future.

I hope that Eggman AND Robotnik are the villains.

I'd always just assumed the characters aged a few years between the Genesis games and Sonic Adventure to explain the changes in their appearance. It would actually make sense if the 16-bit games took place in some other dimension or time because the settings of those games are drastically different from everything we've seen since Sonic Adventure. IF this new game says that classic Sonic and current Sonic are alternate universe versions of each other, I would be thrilled because then I can pretend everything post-Sonic & Knuckles never happened. But who knows. Sonic's world contains no logic whatsoever. Sega can't even decide what planet he resides on.

WOW - apparently they actually considered getting Jaleel White for this game. It'd be neat if Princess Sally or even Scratch and Grounder had cameos. Sega hates them but it would differentiate the two Sonics more, and at least they have made game appearances, albeit only spinoffs. Even better, Tiara Boobowski!
I saw some gameplay videos for this. It looks... really good actually.

Bite me, you liked Sonic Adventure 2.

Half of Sonic Unleashed was fine. I would have happily paid full price for the game if they cut the pesky werewolf shit out.

At least they should have let the werewolf crap be optional. It was the same reason I hated SA2, they forced you to play through bullshit.

I really don't see any way they could possibly mess up Sonic Generations at this point. But this is Sega so they will go out of their way to fuck it up.

I'm worried because they make the black and white stuff kind of stick out in the trailer. I'm worried you're going to have to paint the world.

Sega does have a recent history of ripping off hit games. Sonic Unleashed = Twilight Princess, Sonic Colors = Super Mario Galaxy, please don't tell me they're going to give this the Epic Mickey treatment. What happened to Genesis Does What Nintendon't?

The chibi sonic levels are everything that sonic 4 should have been.

The classic chubby little Sonic level that you get in the demo is better than Sonic 4 as a whole.

hurray for a physics engine.

plus I actually felt like it's a throwback to the old fans, where as sonic 4 seemed to be trying to implement the sonic adventure style into sidescrolling.

Oh my god, they've finally done something right!

They've done THAT PART RIGHT. The modern Sonic style is done up like the Wii games....

As far I can tell, REAL Sonic it's just Baby Sonic. The game is a hoot, if not flawed.
