All there really was to it was a promise of blue substance.
Oh, and it made by sega. We know how that goes these days.

Okay, I'm really not gonna get my hopes up. I think that Sonic will never be good again, and these games are just for the fans. All I saw was "2-D Adventure" and a blue ball bouncing off walls. And for those who say there isn't a way they can fuck up a 2-D Sonic? Think again. I'll probably buy it, but not on the Wii. I have learned my lesson.

Whatever, just wash your hands.
well that wasnt worth the load time, but its pretty much impossible to make a sonic game as bad as some of his 3d ones without relying on erotic gay fanfics involving sonic and eggman for the story and game play

They just don't give up, do they? Even when each Sonic game gets progressively worse...

Still, I'm not going to bother forming an opinion until I see some gameplay. In fact, maybe not even then...

Let's all remember something. Before Sonic Unleashed was unleashed onto our games consoles it actually looked good.

The last sonic game i played....the one with the chao garden. I realized the chao garden was more fun then the sonic game, after realizing a minigame was the high point i quickly smacked myself with a hammer then went to play a game that wasn't just a dead rotting corpse coated in shiny things. And to all of you who have hope for this game? Don't, just don't. If its bad (it will) you won't be dissapointed and if its good (it won't) then hooray for you and the 50 sonic fans who are left.

Pft, doubt it. Sonic games haven't been good since the Genesis. When will Sega learn to move on?
Whycome it is so hard to make a good new Sonic game?
It probably isn't. It's just that Sega puts like 20 bucks into each game. Smortypants.
Well I'm sure AT LEAST HALF of the 20 bucks they spent making Sonic Unleashed went into the Daytime stages. Those were pretty fun.

Possibly, but don't count on this "2D adventure" being any different from the rest. They seem to all be carbon copies of each other.

I'll wait until the reviews are in before I raise my hopes up. Sorry Sonic, you no longer deserve my anticipation.

while I do... AND I DO agree with you, their are a few things that make it somewhat harder for sonic to jump through 3D.

The speed thing, it's A LOT harder to do in 3D then 2D. You have to put a lot more time into making things look decent in 3D, and only to have it be passed by without a a care. Also, a lot of layering done in a 2D game can be done to make thing's look like their going faster, in a 3D plane, you lose the chance to do A LOT of those tricks.

P.S: I feel a little un-easy talking as if I know a lot about 3D work. Honestly I know mostly 2D stuff "im'a newgrounds rookie animator :p", and messed around in Source SDK. So if anyone see's any flaws in my speculation TELL ME! I wanna know :D


HOWEVER, if you're smart you can use plenty of other techniques, which have been around for a while. Beyond that thing's look WAY COOLER when your flying past them all blurred anyway, so you'd think they'd use that to their advantage.

I'm going to need to see something more concrete then this before I can make any sort of guess as to how this'll turn out.
