Put Blaze The Cat in Sonic 4. Somehow the Sonic DS games were good and she was in them. I think she is like a lucky charm. I am ignoring the fact she was in Sonic 2006 because everyone except Cameron Diaz was in that game.
BTW were SEGA aiming to make Sonic, Tails and Knuckles look 3Dish in Sonic 3? I really like the Sonic 3 sprites but lately, everytime I look at them I can’t help but visualize them being nearly 3D.
I don’t know about 3dish but they had a good number of animations with them not just facing the left and right and the sprites for Sonic at least were were bigger jump in quality in comparison to 1,2 and CD. 1 and CD practically used the same sprite cept with some different animations.
Tails’s sprite in Sonic 3 was mostly ripped straight from Sonic 2 with some new shading here and there. Sonic had a new sprite in Sonic 2 and again in S3K. Sonic and Knuckles both had great sprites in S3K, but Tails’s kinda sucks.
Things I want in Sonic 4:
- Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles. Maybe Amy.
- Sonic’s insta-shield PROPER (the one that makes him wholly invincible for the duration, not the shitty Sonic Advance version) + multiple elemental shields and Sonic’s shield-specific moves.
- Tails’s flight working like Sonic Adventure 1, where you HOLD the button to fly and he flies up fairly quickly, but loses stamina quickly (i.e. a glorified double-jump).
- The physics from Sonic 2/S3K/Sonic Advance 1 (uphill/downhill mechanics, momentum, bouncing off enemies from great heights makes you go super-high if you hold jump, etc.).
- NOTHING FROM THE OVERRATED PIECE OF SHIT KNOWN AS SONIC CD, except maybe Amy and maybe having to hold to spin dash instead of rapid-tapping. Maybe the Super Peel Out. NOTHING ELSE. Fuck that game.
- Super forms for all characters, with (after getting all emeralds) a toggle option to play them in normal stages (I actually have two S3K save files for everyone, one with emeralds, one without).
Last but not least, something that Megaman 9/10 should have had (and Powered Up DID have), something that the disappointing New Super Mario Bros. Wii should have had, something that WILL make me buy this even if Sonic Team is at the helm:
- A fucking LEVEL EDITOR.
Inject Dr. B directly into my veins!
imagines fan created 2d sonic levels
There’s going to be accellerators all over the place.
I like that they are making the game but why episodic? I mean I know a lot of games are doing that but for something like Sonic they should just make it a full game.
if they change sonic’s run animation to make his feet blur and make sure the music is as good as genesis sonics then that’d be great.
Oh my. Yes plz.
There is something wrong, with you all, Sonic fans.
I don’t understand why a 2D sonic game needs to be 1 player. Some of my fondest gaming memories are of me playing as tails with my older brother in sonic 2, 3, and Knuckles. Tails and Knuckles didn’t take away from those games because you basically do what sonic does: Go from left to right quickly.
These characters didn’t suck in the Adventure series, it’s what you had to do with them that sucked. Searching for gems? Walking (not running) around in a robot plane? Who wants to do this in a Sonic game? Now all I hear is how other characters will mess up a sonic game somehow. Hell, I hate Shadow, but if he were in Sonic 4, I wouldn’t complain. I just wouldn’t use him.
No matter how good Sonic 4 is, if it’s 1 player it’ll in a way feel like Sonic 1 “Xtreme” to me. Maybe they could’ve even made it 4 player like New Mario Bros. Wii.
seconded, blaze was so good
4 player 2d sonic game I imagine would be infinitely harder than NSMB Wii…that is if they’re expecting everyone to share the same screen. If it was online then that’d be fine but everyone on the same screen would be a fucking pain in the ass…unless everyone besides Sonic had infinite lives a la Sonic 2 and 3k
I figured it’d be 4 player online only… but offline why not do it the old fashioned way. Maybe just 2 player for the old way. 4 players on 1 screen would be hard to do in a fast-paced game.
Can you imagine a 4 player Vs mode where you race throuh the levels like sonic 2?
Decided to watch a trailer for SEGA All-Star Racing :lol:
It got me a little more excited for the game =P
So what’re you fondest memories of playing the Sonic games? Be it from the 90s or the past decade.
Would be utter chaos. And bloody awesome.
I had fun playing the demo…looking foward to picking this one up
playing sonic adventure for the first time on dreamcast…
its possible to a 4 player racing game via sonic rivals style…just have it online or use the knuckles chaotix system
Shadow would not fit in Sonic 4, seeing as it’s set before SA2 ever happened, it wouldn’t make sense. Point taken though, as long as using ALL the characters is not compulsory. I wouldn’t have the patience now to trudge though Big’s fishing levels had SA1 came out now.
Knuckles should have had plaforming with a hint of fighting in his gameplay in the Adventure games.
is that sega kart game as good as CTR?
I used to play CTR to Sonic R music when I was younger. Good times.
Can’t you feel the sunshine as it brightens up your day?
This is cool and all, but where the hell is a new JSR?
It was the only thing associated with rollerblading I gave a shit about.
