This game's supposed to have a pretty big budget and has some old Naughty-Dog devs working on it so that gives me hope to this Sonic game. Can't wait..

AKR3513d ago

Problem is, it couldn't look further from a Sonic game. I think they're sticking to their old habits from the Jak and Daxter series, a bit too much.

thezeldadoth3513d ago

Thats whats good about it. The sonic games havent been doing well. Theyre allowed to take the sonic universe and make different styles with it. I think itll be fun.

Ka7be3513d ago

This game is made by the guy who worked on
Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune
Jak X: Combat Racing
Jak 1,2,3
Crash Team Racing
Crash Bandicoot

And they are using Cryengine

Very Interesting!

-Foxtrot3513d ago

Just because it has "some" ND devs dosen't mean it's going to be good.

NaughtyDog games are good because the studio work as a team.

From the previews of this game apparently it's awful...and rightly so because it looks awful aswell.

If a game needs to change so good to TRY and be good then whats the point using that IP, why not just make a new IP all together with new characters.

The 3ds version how ever is fantastic from the SLY 4 Devs

thezeldadoth3513d ago

Hope it does well i love these style of platformers

StormLegend3513d ago

Man I hope this game get good reviews.

Klonoa-dreamtraveler3513d ago

hope it flops sonic isn't a freakin disney character haven't they ruined and confused the sonic formula enough. its like anything can be a sonic game as long it has sonics face and name on it. new generation sonic fans annoy me.

Klonoa-dreamtraveler3513d ago

Top 10 Worst Sonic Games

Alex DS. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "I’m a huge fan of the series and love to talk about its best games… but its hard to argue that it’s all been great for the blue blur. From games that were loaded with glitches, slow-paced gameplay, and visuals that look more like a blue blur of… pixels and polygons. So, take this as a warning to avoid these 10 worst Sonic games of all time."

Never played any of these on this list, surprised Sonic R isn't there, but then i played that on my first PC and didn't think it was that bad, got some mild enjoyment out of it at least.

-Hermit-1005d ago

Lost World, Black Knight, Forces and Chronicles should not be on that list, I can easily think of worse.

Sonic Boom: Shattered Crystal, Sonic Drift, Sonic Drift 2, Sonic Labyrinth, Sonic Eraser, Sonic R, these are all way worse than the games on this list. Knuckles Chaotix was terrible as well, I hated the way you had to control the players, it was a pain in the ass. Even games like Sonic 3D Blast, Sonic Spinball and Rivals 1 and 2 which I thought were decent were worse than some of the games on this list.

To be brutally honest, most of the Game Gear and Master System Sonic games are pretty awful too. Sonic Chaos on the Game Gear for example, you can't even see what you are doing because the field of view is so bad.

I would rather play Sonic 06 than any of the games I listed above, and that game is classed as the worst Sonic game of the lot.

People have nostalgia glasses on when they think about old 2D Sonic games. Outside of the mainline games on the Mega Drive, most of them were worse than the modern day 3D games.

Rebel_Scum1005d ago

Sonic 1 & 2 on the MS2 and GG were great games. Perfect blend of speed, secrets and challenge.

Sonic Chaos was shite. Too easy and gross looking sprites and backgrounds.

imo 1-10 for worst Sonic games would just be all the 3D one's and Sonic Fighters.

lellkay1005d ago (Edited 1005d ago )

There is definitely some worse games than Lost World,

The guy who wrote this definitely didn't dig enough into the franchise history haha

Pyrofire951005d ago

General question.
Is your favorite Sonic game the first one you played?
If not, is you favorite the same style as your first? (3D, 2D, some other distinction?)

lellkay1005d ago

My favorite game is not the first one I played. (First one I played was Sonic The Hedgehog on Megadrive/Genesis)

My favorite one is probably 3&K or Mania, so yes it is in the same style as the first game I played.

-Hermit-1004d ago

My favourite Sonic game is not the first one I played or same style.

The first Sonic game I played was Sonic 1 on the Mega Drive, my favourite is Sonic Adventure 2.

DFresh1004d ago

I disagree with Sonic Forces on that list but the others are correct.
Sonic Forces is hella under rated.

Article says it's about third party Wii U games, yet Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival & Pokemon Rumble U are on this list.

lptmg2458d ago

maybe they were made by third parties? I dunno much about those games

PhoenixUp2458d ago

Doesn't matter who they were made by, they're still first party titles

lptmg2458d ago

one of the worst Wii U games I've ever played was Deus Ex. It's not by any means a terrible game, but the Wii U port was a massive disappointment with a weird control scheme and an abysmal framerate of like 20fps at best.

derkasan2458d ago

It's crazy how hard Devil's Third tanked. Don't think Itagaki's going to really recover from that one.
