As if the leaked screenshots hadn't already confirmed it, it does indeed appear that the still-unannounced Xbox LIVE Arcade port of Sega's Sonic Adventure is headed our way.
Destructoid reader Damon sent along word that the XBLA version of the title was recently reviewed in the latest issue of the UK magazine, 360 Gamer. According to the review, the game is a "no frills" port of the main game featured in Sonic Adventure DX, the enhanced GameCube update of the original title.
Sonic the Hedgehog is turning 30 years old, and at this late stage in the character's life, it might be time to give up on that precious 3rd dimension.
Or maybe people should let Sonic evolve past 2D sprites. Stop holding the series back because you're nostalgic for the 90s.
Naw Sonic Unleashed had some amazing day time stages, Sonic Generations modern sonic was fantastic. Forces problem was lazy stages that took 2 seconds to beat and barely any skill past holding square. As long as they do it right modern sonic is fantastic.
2D sonic is great and mania is too. But sonic 4 ep1 was mehh, EP 2 was good though. But I'd play day time unleashed over it every time
I like both 2D and 3D sonic games. The original series, Generations, Mania (for 2D) and then of course Adventures, colors and Lost World (for 3D).
Or just literally steal what fans have been making, seriously there's like 4 fan made sonic games out there that play better than anything team sonic has made in years
Were we too harsh on the blue hedgehog?
I loved everything about this game......well, all but one thing, and it's not hard to guess what I am talking about XD
I used to really struggle to get all A's on Sonic's levels. I just didn't know how to beat those times, until I learned that spin dash spamming was the way to go.
"A few years ago, leading up to Sega’s latest mainline Sonic The Hedgehog title, the company was confident it wasn’t going to disappoint fans with the game that would later be announced as Sonic Forces. The company even went as far to apologize for the lack of quality control with its recent Sonic titles. Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric sits at a 32/100 on Metacritic, and Sonic Boom: Shattered Crystal is currently at a 47. Needless to say, they disappointed fans across the globe. Unfortunately, Sonic Forces didn’t raise the bar much higher" -- Nintendo Enthusiast
I'm shocked that Sega haven't cashed in on Chao's. There is so much they could do with them with. Sonic Adventure 1 and especially 2 had so much replayability because of Chao World. If Sega made a modern Chao World it could be brilliant. It's crazy that they ditched it just as it was getting good.
As for Sonic Adventure 3.....well, it's the Sonic game I want more than any other. The thing I worry about most is the direction the stories have taken in recent Sonic games. They are less gritty and more child friendly, I don't think that style suits Sonic and especially the Sonic Adventure series.
At this point Sega needs to wake up and realize what made the adventure titles do great. They need to go back instead of going forward. I haven’t played a good Sonic game since generations and that was only good because it was remade stages from past games.
I don't really have faith in 3D Sonic games anymore. It blew my mind that Sonic Forces, which was suppose to be a return to greatness similar to Sonic Generations failed to meet my expectations that was pretty standard. After that, I just lost faith in the 3D sonic games. They haven't been good in forever and I don't like that is likely to happen again. All the 3D Sonic games that released after Generations were mediocre for the most part.
Nice. Maybe Sega would grow some balls and release Shenmue while there at it.
allready got this MOST AMAZING sonic ever game on ma wonderfull Dreamcast.. play it here & there.
is this game coming to the PSN as well? if not that sux,i would gladly purchse it and play it on my PS3 :)
BEST sonic game in my opinion and Sonic adventures 2 as well. :)
OMGWTFBBQ I wants!
I've had this on PC for about 5 years...besides, I'd rather have it on PS3, the game's going to take up a HUGE amount of space on a 20GB HDD.
This site is full of bs most of the time, I don't see it happening, now if they said it was coming to Wii....Well that wouldn't be hard to believe then, plus with Sega an Sony working together on things, I see Sony getting it on the PS3 more then 360.
File size is another thing, yes they could compress it, but then the game would look more bad then it did back then, plus Sonic A. DX blow Vs the Dreamcast one, but I do see Sony maybe getting a remake of this game (Maybe like GOW was but download).
Anyways people need to shut up about Sega, because the games they been putting out have sold alot better then the ones they put on Xbox and PS2 (Alot more better then Gamecubes), besides Sega has now started to fix were they went wrong and that is better then not.
P.S. I have the my first Dreamcast copy of Sonic Adeventure working.
