Or I could be wrong.

I didn't know that, that's cool as hell O:

Hope Collision Chaos or Spring Yard are in it.
Well... didn't expect that. They certainly made classic Sonic look very accurate both in the way he moves and the way he looks. So even though I know I'm falling for the bait, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't somewhat excited by this. The fact that its very possible we might see old levels in that game again redone for the Colors/Unleashed engine sounds pretty awesome actually. I REALLY hope they do at least one level from the space colony in SA2.
chemical plant and hydrocity zone better fucking be in this
and flying battery
with remixes

fucking hydrocity remix

oh god the possibilities
When you guys say "remade for the Colors/Unleashed engine", what do you mean by that?

Because I hate that run-as-fast-as-possible-straightforward-throughout-the-whole-level-except-to-dodge-some-forgettable-enemy-or-jump-over-something bullshit.

Someone on SonicRetro still has the results for it, though, they hype and discussion kinda buried it alive. You'll have to look for it.
I do remember some favorites were Hydrocity, Lava Reef, Chemical Plant (Not sure), and Green Hill, but that's all I can remember.
OH GOD THIS IS FUCKING HORRIBLE

Thats like putting the 80's turtles with the modern turtles, nothing good could ever come of that!

It's looking fine to me.

I hope it's not just Sonic on his own, though. I'd appreciate some Knuckles action. To be honest, it's not the inclusion of Sonic's friends that are the problem, it's how well they are implimented into the gameplay. Shadow was fine (and well liked!) until his gun and vehicle gimmicks got in the way of the traditional game flow in Sonic games. Blaze's appearances are almost never decried because she doesn't dominate the plot, and her gameplay mechanics are well implimented.

But you said before it was amazing unless you're kidding.

yes
this post is perfect

this is why i'm okay with the sonic friends from sa2 plus the chaotix
as long as they aren't shittily implemented, i'll welcome them
Big the Cat, worst character ever.

Welcome to Silver.

I love love Big the Cat's design. I wish they'd make Big an interesting character (I can totally see him as a shy, gentle giant) instead of making him the fucking Jar Jar Binks of Sonic. He has a different body shape and a bunch of cool different features than the rest of the characters in Sonic while also having a design that is fitting to the Sonic world - kinda like Vector (the old-school Vector, although both versions can apply, I prefer him because he's thin and everything, because of his wheel spin and he also looks cooler like that, like a chinese dragon... sort of thing... at least imo!). I wish whenever they try adding MORE friends to Sonic -which I'd rather not have, but still, if you ARE gonna do it, try reflecting on those two characters' design, not every character in Sonic needs to follow the same body shape, jesus.

Silver is the coolest character in the series. Sad
Big was awesome in Chronicles, because he was hilarious, and intentionally so.

Okay, this trailer was surprising, but... If they bring back the Unleashed/Colours style, count me out. I'm convinced that formula just doesn't work.
What was wrong with Colors, again? From what I've heard, Colors did 2D Sonic platforming right, and the 3D parts were few in numbers.
