what exactly was so bad about Sonic for the DS?
I like the way the game looks for the most part.
My only gripes:
The mine cart level
Being able to do homing attacks without some sort of shield since it might make the boss battles too easy. But if that ends up being the case and if I get bored I could always try to clear the game without using it.
Overall though I think its ok.
Yeah whoever brought up the camera being too zoomed in is right. That is an issue and I don’t even know why they do it.
Also, will this game have sub-bosses?
will this affect the sega all-stars racing tiers??

except, the cycle has already been broken since theres no signs of sonic’s friends here. although the gameplay is the same ol stuff, its the same ol stuff in a good way (genesis style).
That’s what they always say.
It’s been broken but I’ve heard that phrase several times before during pre sonic releases. ‘This doesn’t look that bad…it could be fun!’ or something similiar. I’m not saying the game will be bad though. You know what would be funny though? If a new character just showed up right at the end in like the last act. SURPRISE PLAYABLE CHARACTER BITCHES! And his name is Bucky the Beaver and his special ability is to make dams that block hot lava.
Edit:
Sonic games on the DS aren’t bad…they’re actually solid experiences. The thing is that if you’re comparing them to the classics then there’s not really much platforming involved in the games and it’s more about running fast and keeping your meter up to run faster. Speed in the older games was reward for remembering where things were in the level and finding the fastest way through. They also actually introduced a pretty awesome character that’s actually been well recieved (Blaze the Cat) but then they sorta messed her up in 2006…
Rush series had small flaws here and there but both of them were solid games. Music in the games was awesome as usual (Rush had a better soundtrack then Rush Adventure imo. [media=youtube]xE5c8ugVYVc"[/media]owns the entire soundtrack of Rush Adventure for free.). I’d easily recommend them over any of the recent games that have come out.
You know a game I’ve been waiting to be announced? Sonic Chronicles 2. I had almost forgot that Bioware was supposed to be working on the sequal. I wondering what improvements they do to the game to make it better. But wait…is the making of Sonic 4 going to mess with this game since they seem to be doing a retcon? if so then FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU— Bioware nearly made a solid Sonic RPG with the first game so I was pretty eager for a sequal…maybe they’ll announce it at E3?
The 2nd Act needs to be on special stage status, not an actual Act. Other than that, the stage is fine.
Final zone’s up. I’m not going to watch it, but for anyone that wants to http://www.tssznews.com/2010/04/03/leak-week-video-detailing-rest-of-sonic-4-released/
I watched it all…nice tribute to sonic 2’s metropolis zone.
I just came after reading the final spoiler…16 years in the making sega’s finally decides to do it…
Dammit, I don’t want to completely spoil myself, but everyone seems to be getting hype from the ending.
At least we all know the game will be ok. A damn shame the whole game got leaked months before the game is even coming out, but that’s SEGA security for ya lol. I was grinning like a little boy when I saw Super Sonic playable in a not final boss fight for the first time in over 10 years. About time.

Ok hype levels at maximum now. Sega has completely pulled me in completely. They have assured themselves my money 100%. God damn man…like…It’s taken them forever to do this regardless of people asking for it. This is something I vote for with ease.
Demo first, people. It’s free and you can see if it’s worthwhile.
Dr. B warns you to exercise cautious optimism. He also has a very large penis.
I’m actually more hyped about this game than I was when I was hearing the new info on Mega Man 10 (to be fair, I was not hyped for that game at all. Shit, I still have not bought it yet).
However… looking up more on this game… Sega has my money ;p
but…but specs! Super Sonic…playable…in every stage! I can’t help myself but be at least somewhat hype after hearing that.
Episode 2 is already in development I heard…
Demo it. The money, you must – who am I kidding, I’m going to get the demo, play it, like it, buy the game, finish it, and come back and complain that the level design is too pit-happy and doesn’t have enough branching paths, and still get almost every achievement in it. And I’ll still be bitter at all things Sonic.
I hope the final Sonic 4 Episode’s final zone is DARK SANDOPOLIS. (If it is, I totally called it.)
Dr. B can beat Dark Sandopolis in 30 seconds.
when will the demo be up on the EU PSN?
Also as much as I want to get the game…I feel like waiting til all eps. are out and are sold as a compilation. Until then I’d just settle with the demo.
Is the demo out already?
If so, I need to get it.
I am so damn hyped for Sonic 4 ^_^. I’m even anticipating the upcoming episodes.
