I don't think anyone asked you or even cares about your fanboy opinion.

May I direct you to Krang's post, Duke? If you have nothing to say about the game and don't care about what I thought, then you might as well not waste your precious time trolling. Is there seems to be an attitude problem in the General Discussion or is my observation wrong? Many posters seem hostile for no real reason. (Don't worry, most of you are nice and great people. If you didn't feel like it was directed at you, it prolly wasn't.)


Back on topic, while I prefer the new Sonic model, I noticed in ThirdMarioBro's comparison picture the lack of detail on the bottom-side of Sonic's shoe. It's kind of weird to say I'll miss something as little as that. Details like that really make stuff more interesting to look at.

Anyhow, the project prolly still has a long time ahead of it before it gets a release. Maybe they'll add more detail on the characters in the future and if the framerate won't take a big hit due to it. I'd much rather have a stable 60fps with medium detail over a wonky 30 with high detail.

I stand by my belief that no one really cares how you feel about the game because you think every Sonic game is great even the ones that universally suck. It makes your opinion extremely biased and therefore irrelevant to this discussion. Had someeone else with some objectivity said this game looks to be shaping up nicely, then I may listen to the reasoning but your opinion on the matter is worthless.

No matter how much time they spend on the game, the frame rate will still be all over the place--just like every other console Sega game of the past five years.

It's official and with a semi-new trailer to boot.

[Peanut]

I dunno what it is, but the style of the gameplay in the trailer, along with the music, really seems to be getting me pumped for this. This is going to be the first Sonic game since Adventure 2 where I fall for the "It'll be a return to form!" line that gets spewed out every time a new Sonic game is announced.

I didn't want it to happen, but it did. Now I'm settling in and getting ready for a large amount of disappointment.

[The Shelf]

I'm with you, Peanut. I'm watching this new trailer and thinking to myself, "Surely they can't go wrong with a game like this." We'll see. I've always been pretty good at keeping my hype in check, but it may be hard with this because I want it to be good so badly.

[Cure]

New footage.



Still looks good. I just don't like the real world locations, but I'm loving the fact I've already seen like 4 different path branches.

[Hannah]

Not gonna lie, that looked really, really good.

[愛]

I agree that it looked damn beautiful, but...do you even get to play the game? It looks like it kind of plays itself, with a few buttons pressed here and there.

[Dr. Doom]

That really did look amazing. I like the song too.

Have you ever played Sonic before? That's....what it is.

And I agree with Cure, the real world locations are annoying. Go back to old school Sonic level design.

[愛]

I know that's what it is, asshole. But sometimes in the game you have to stop and think about what you're going to do. This looks like you don't even play the game at all. How is that fun?

Where are the trees and stuff? Sonic is not urban.

[Ra]

Why is Sonic in London? D:

It looks great, the camera isn't terribly annoying like in other Sonic games I've seen, and everything just looks smooth and fast. But, to add to the distaste of the locations, what the hell is it with the urban settings? As long as they don't have all 100 or so characters with deep and meaningful plotlines about how you must SAVE TEH UNIVERSAL PORTAL or some crazy crap like that, I think this will be awesome.

[Brodie]

Well, if they just listened to people and made a 3d Sonic Rush, it'd work. Looks like they're doing just that...

Though what happened to that ****ing wolf thing?

[Jed]

Looks crap, not a surprise.

Care to elaborate? Or are you just trying to be different?

[Jed]

Why would I be trying to be different, the game looks rubbish. If that's the kind of game you like you might as well turn on a movie and alternate holding up and right on your controller with the odd button press thrown in.

[Peanut]

Oh, Jed. You so crazy.

I was just saying, because just upon initial glances at the game it already appears to be better than any Sonic console game in the past five or six years.
