As I'm typing this, its only been released on the Iphone/Ipod , Wii and PS3(correct me if im wrong). Sega claims that this game is the sequel that fans have been waiting 16 years for. Are they right? In my honest opinion, I would have to say yes! There's no messed up storyline, no crappy Voice Actors (No voices at all, actually), and its just Sonic and Eggman. Plus the level design is great in my opinion. They even brought back the Labyrinth Zone from Sonic the Hedgehog 1. I have 2 small complaints though... 1.If you come to a complete stop, it takes a little bit to actually get moving, and even then, you have to hit a speed boost pad to actually get going faster. 2. The game is kinda short, I got to the last zone in like an hour and a half. Not huge issues, so no big deal. Anyways, feel free to discuss.
It's not out here till tomorrow so I'll be buying it then, and I'll tell you what i think. I'm looking forward to it.
The reason it's so short is because they're releasing it in episodes. The one YOU played was only Episode 1. And I think this is what they should be doing more of. Sonic's been through hell the past 16 years with the exception of a few good games like Sonic Chronicles. The HD makes it look great too. If it ever comes out on a disc i'd SO buy it.
Oh, well I guess that makes sense. I agree the episodic idea is a good idea, maybe they'll make their future games (minus Colors of course) with this setup, it would really help get the franchise out of the trash heap that its thrown itself into over the years.
Future games in episodes? I don't think that'd be a particularly good idea. The only reason they did Sonic 4 in episodes was because they didn't see people shelling out $60 for a retail Sonic 4 release.
No, not the episodes thing, i mean maybe using the 2D Engine from this game. I probably shouldve worded that a bit better, sorry.
It's alright. And that is a good idea although after a while we'd probably be asking for 3D again. Here's what i'd want. More 2D platformers after all the episodes of Sonic 4 come out. Maybe even a Sonic 5.
