From what I hear this is a promising Sonic game. We have seen some good Sonic and some bad Sonic but like Mario, we will always give it another shot! !

shadowknight2034795d ago

Yes, it should be at the very least a decent sonic game. So long as they don't screw up the 2D platforming segment, which going by there latest HD release Sonic 4: Episode 1 they'll do a good job on. I might even buy this game at bargain bin price if I can't get a review copy.

FinalSpartan4795d ago

oh my....not this again..False promises and always some utter turd comes out of the other end. All sonic games were utter garbage.

I find it hard people still have hope, time after time they ruin Sonic name with some awful Sonic game. Sonic 4 was a disgrace and this..who freaken knows.

Mario? Mario has been delivering for how many years? now? Stellar titles like Mario Galaxy 1 & 2 and all his core games. Even his spin-offs like Mario Kart or Mario Party are great. But then there are really awful spin-offs. But his core games have always been stellar.

actually sonic colors was really good. im not sure if you've played it though. i was some what surprised that they managed to pull of a fun and well designed 3d sonic game. its a must play title for sonic fans and gives me hope that they can still bring something new and creative to the sonic name with out destroying the game itself.

Venomousfatman4795d ago

I can't wait for this game. Old School Sonic FTW

christheredhead4795d ago

i really like the idea of the 2d and 3d segments. im interested to see how its executed. cool idea though.

shadowknight2034795d ago

Yeah definitely a cool idea. Especially being how they incorporated that into the storyline.

christheredhead4795d ago

yah im wondering if they're going to take a page from the galaxy series and sort of use that concept as idea. galaxy 2 had some amazingly fun segments that switched between 2d and 3d in one level. i would imagine it would be something similar to that but in the sonic universe. i didn't know it was incorporated directly into the story line though so that sounds interesting as well.

9thGenHero4795d ago

Haha it's hard for me to comment on this after our latest podcast, all I can say is, gamers know what they want and I hope SEGA will understand that with this game

zackacloud4795d ago

I like it too much but just can't trust on sega

Or trust on companies hype

The 7 Best Sonic the Hedgehog Games: Racing through Time

Sonic the Hedgehog has a long and turbulent history in videogames, but which are the best games featuring the blue bur?

Rebel_Scum118d ago

Generations over Mania? Please… Generations doesnt have any new ideas in the levels/bosses.

Also a top 7 of Sonic games shouldn’t have any 3D crap and contain at least one of the 8-bit titles.

Sonic CD getting snubbed is weird. Number 1 is definitely interchangable between Sonic 2 and Sonic 3 & Knuckles.

Snookies12118d ago

Nothing wrong with putting Generations over Mania. Generations had a lot more to it. Mania was just a bit too short, despite how amazing it was. They're both top-tier Sonic games though.

Profchaos118d ago (Edited 118d ago )

I don't think mania was to short given 1,2,3, knuckles were between 1 and 3 hours long.

Mania was 5 hours roughly

However i say the originals feel more repayable because they are so short

Profchaos118d ago (Edited 118d ago )

The 8 bit games were pretty bad overall do you mean the 16 bit ones

Rebel_Scum118d ago

Nope. Sonic 1 & 2 on the master system were great. Dont confuse these with the game gear versions either.

Profchaos118d ago

Top 7 for me
7 cd
6 mania
5 Frontiers
4 sonic 3
3 sonic 1
2 sonic and knuckles
1 sonic 2

persona4chie118d ago

Sometimes I feel like the Sonic Advanced games just didn’t exist with how much it’s always forgotten 😭

Chocoburger117d ago

Even as a Sonic fan, I didn't really care for those games, and getting the Chaos Emeralds were freakin' horrible. Even with an emulator and save states, I didn't have the desire to try. I also didn't like most of the levels or bosses either. Unfortunately, DiMPs aren't good at making Sonic games.

Why the Separation Between Modern and Classic Sonic is a Double-Edged Sword

The divide between both iterations of Sonic is now reaching spin-off territory, and the way Sega is handling it is both a blessing and a curse.

Sonic Handheld Games that Need Remasters after Origins

BLG writes: "With the success of the films and the promise of Frontiers, it’s possible that we’re ushering in a new golden age of Sonic the Hedgehog. While Sega is looking forward, the company is also looking back. It’s giving us Sonic Origins, a retooled collection of Genesis classics. However, this package fails to provoke a burning question: what’s the best Sonic handheld game?"
