Happy Birthday to the Blue Blur! 22 :party:
Same here. I’ll probably wait for a price drop.
I may buy the wiiU before the ps4 now.
You know, I’m not sure why, but it really bothers me that there’s a Sonic fan game expo…
First 2 levels of SLW 3DS. Yes Dimps is making it but surprisingly it looks like it will have a focus on platforming not speed. The 2D section looks GDLK, has Dimps been replaced by android clones programmed to make good sonic games?
When I first saw Sonic’s new attack in the 3DS I thought they were taking a page out of Sonic Battle but it’s not quite the same. It’s more like he took a page out Street Fighter Animated Series/MVC Guile’s book.
Nintendo World Report interviewed Iizuka on some things having to do with Sonic Lost World and also asked about Sonic returning for Smash

Either Nintendo hasn’t asked about Sonic yet or Iizuka knows the ninjas are ready.
Seems like Sega is heeding some of the community’s calls in their games. Other characters other than Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy and Dr.Eggman don’t appear as much anymore.
That’d be awesome if Sonic rejoined the cast of Smash!
Which is too bad, because those extra characters were never the problem. I miss some of them.
1000x this. The extra characters get a shitty rep due to Sega turning the game something completely different when your not Sonic. No one asked for shitty savager hunts, dumb down shooting and Sega Bass Fishing in their Sonic games. Sonic Heroes had a cast of 12 playable characters and no one bitched as everyone had the same core gameplay.
So I was watching some gameplay and honestly dont mind the speed decrease so you could do more platforming instead having just the blue blur. However one thing I am worried about is the levels where you are on rails and have to just dodge enemies and stuff. I really dont like levels where I dont have full control over the character and if you are on rails I feel sonic could at least be a little closer to the blue blur like in previous games.
Nonetheless I am still excited for this game but that is just a little something that has me worried. It is a Wii U exclusive so I really want it to do well.
this is what I was talking about a Sonic Adventure remake would be godlike
That was a great interview, usually interviews with game producers are marketing hype masquerading as shitty questions, but here the meaningful stuff us nerds care about are asked and answered thoroughly. From this interview you really get a sense that Iizuka has a clear vision of the Sonic experience he wants to deliver and is very cognizant of the issues past 3D Sonics had.
Hype levels reaching critical mass. Fuck you Specs.
You know everytime I see a new sonic game I always seem to get the feel of… Looks cool… but not “fun”. If that makes sense. Games just seem more pretty then fun to play over and over again like the old games. Also for the love of god can hyper sonic be in a game again just once please!?
Hypersonic is redundant and stupid.
He has shadows and he glows colors. He is fucking awesome
Redundant and stupid.
As much as I would like for Hyper forms of characters to come back…I feel there needs to be a reason for it. Something that super alone can’t handle. Super Sonic as he is now is even more OP than he was back in genesis since the introduction of Shadow and chaos control stuff. Sonic would probably have to be fighting a god and he’d probably have to be doing it alone for there to be a reason to bring the form back.
I am still quite curious as to what that third unannounced Sonic game is that Nintendo signed up for…Someone should ask Iizuka when we can expect to hear news about it.
We have Shadow for that. And he’s his own character.
Does the 3DS version of Lost World count as the second game?
