Played a bit of Sonic Advance earlier today and found it to be a pretty OK game overall thus far. Feels a lot like classic Sonic. What does everyone ehre think of the Sonic Advance series?

Fun overall, but too reliant upon "boost" gimmick for Sonic's gameplay. Also, WAY too many bottomless pits when compared to the Genesis games. Leads to so many cheap deaths made worse by the small range of sight caused by the dimensions of the GBA screen.

Yeah I hate the "hold right to win" mechanic but I also hate the "get punished for doing exactly what the game are known for" aspect. I feel like no game has balanced it right, but the Advance series dive too far into the latter.

I've never really liked the Special Stages in Sonic, the Special Stages in the Advance and Rush series for example nearly ruin those games for me, Sonic 3's Blue Spheres is the only one in the original trilogy I didn't find frustrating in some way. Mania's Special Stage looks like the Sonic Heroes Special Stages with better controls and I didn't find those too annoying.
Whats everyone's favorite Special Stages? My top 3 are: 1. Sonic 3 & Knuckles Blue Spheres 2. Sonic the Hegehog (Master System) 3. Sonic CD |

It's deliberate. One of the things they've mentioned is wanting to have a look of if Sonic actually had a 2D Saturn game. So the sprite based stuff looks like a great evolution, while the special stage is a 3D low poly look. I'd rather something smoother or better looking, but eh, it's a bit charming, I think, and not as hard to look at as a lot of games from that actual era.

Say what you will about Sonic 4, but you had a bit more control there.

I think Sonic 3D Blast, both versions, handled the concept much better. Especially the Saturn version with it's ability to roll down hills for more speed. But Sonic Rush's Special Stages with the touch controls...ugh. I never did manage to get the 7th emerald. |

Seeing as I made no mention or judgement on your intelligence or mental faculties, I'm unsure what prompted this defensive response, but it's really not necessary.

So...what exactly are you expecting from a game that's supposed to be going back to the roots of the Genesis days?

Don't mind Cure, he's just trying to keep Peanut's memory alive. Don't take it personal.
I like the special stage look but mostly for nostalgic reasons, then again this game is a love letter to nostalgic Sonic fans I wonder if Sonicmania outsells Forces by a lot we'll see Classic Sonic take the spotlight. Quote:

I loved it, it felt like Sonic and classic Sonic at that. I was a bit disappointed that it didn't offer a lot more than that but still loved it. All characters pretty much play the same though besides Kuckles/Tails abilities which only affect gameplay very slightly. The only one who is actually different is Amy and not in a good way. Always wanted to check out the other three. The first Rush game I got bored of it since it did feel like only going right but I liked the boss fights. I actually like "going right" too but yeah it wasn't too memorable. |

Why does it look like ****? You're not giving any reasons why other than to just **** on the game.

Of course, Sonic is not nearly THAT retro and probably doesn't have nearly that much of a disadvantage. Just something to keep in mind. Regardless, I think I recall Iizuka saying that if it sold really well, it would help determine what they did with the property going forward, so if it does sell a lot we're probably going to see a series of new classic styled Sonics like this.
