Sega Announces new 2D Sonic title

[Kriven]

No, in SA2B you can get this upgrade that lets Sonic charge up an attack using the Spindash. When you release the button he basically destroys every enemy on the screen. It's like a Lightspeed Dash for enemies.

That's called the Light attack.

[Voyage 34]

It was also implemented in Sonic Heroes, after using a Team Blast.

[Vipershark]

nobody liked that that though because it sucked

Couldn't Tails run as fast as Sonic for a short amount of time?

[GrooveMan.exe]

It depends on which incarnation. In the 2D games, Tails has always been a fraction slower than Sonic. In games where he follows you, he'll eventually fall off-screen if you're on a long enough straightaway; even in Sonic Advance 3. In the 3D games he keeps pace. In Sonic Adventure 1 because his stages would be impossible if Sonic was continually faster, and in Heroes because he'd suck if he lagged behind every time you were the Speed character.

That makes 4 games coming out that I'm probably going to get.

Super Bump! Sorry.

SEGA will be revealing all the playable characters this week. Honestly the way they set up that list I think the only one will be Sonic.

SEGA will be revealing all the playable characters this week.

The only person other than Sonic who should be on that list is Dr. Eggman.

Keyword is "Playable"

[D2S-Speed]

It comes out this year. Let's hope for the best.

Actually, you're probably right about that.

Though no playable tails or knuckles sucks.
They're the only sonic friends that don't deserve to be omitted.

Possibly Shadow if they can change his game mechanics enough to make him not be a clone of sonic, yet keep him close enough that he's still all about speed and not cars and guns, etc.

[Rökkan]

If all characters but Sonic are crossed, I'll be happy.

But still, no Tails or Knuckles? Fuck.

[Ultimecia]

I feel like an idiot by checking it out
I mean, ever since Sonic Adventure 1&2 every time they announce a new Sonic, I get worked up and when I play the game, it's shit. Except for the GBA titles, the current Sonic games looks like aiming fanservice, furry and poorly-written script (made by 12-years-old kids). I mean, Sonic kissing a human girl, becoming werehog, using swords, what the hell?!
I'm so tired of this ; I should remind myself to don't be so naive.

That sums up about all of the new ones.
