Sega Announces new 2D Sonic title
You can't complain one minute that it's not enough like the originals and then complain that they're using chiptunes. :I

They're not even going to use the wheel when Sonic's going at top speed?
Fuck you again, Sonic Team.

I'm hoping they'll add that in soon enough. his running looks weirdly slow at the pace he's going right now.

Or you use something, or you use another thing. Don't you think that having modern graphics with chiptune music rather weird? I'm guessing that it'll be just a title screen sound or something, and the rest of the game will have non-chiptune music, guessing by the Sonic Heroes SFX on the website.

Plus Sonic CD is an original and had awesome non-chiptune music.

I'm still struggling to see what's wrong with this. That description sounds like fun. The fuck is wrong with you. =|
Specs 'n' Headphones has been revamped! Check it, yo.

Because the homing attacks suck?

Not if they do it right. I mean I'm honestly skeptical about it too, but if someone managed to pull it off in a classic Sonic romhack AND make it good (this is just what i've heard, but from multiple people), I don't see why they wouldn't be able to pull it off in this game... besides, if you don't like the homing attack, don't use it.

I liked how the homing attacks made you reach other places in Unleashed.
And that's the ONLY way it should be used in this game, in my opinion.

Just seems weird making a 'retro' Sonic game with a homing attack. Why not just make "Sonic Rush X" or something?

And the reason they probably won't be able to pull it off is because: Sega is making it.

As for the whole "Just don't use it" - I never liked that logic. Just doesn't sit well with me. Not to mention that if it has homing jumps (has this even been confirmed?) they'll probably be needed to progress through the game.

I don't see why "Sega is making it" is a bad thing. They haven't done well with Sonic lately, but they've done quite a few other games lately that are pretty good.

In regards to the homing attack, I just hope its not something you're forced to use everything 3 seconds like in some of Sonic's recent games. Like Tyvon said there's been a number of rom hacks that have done it well so I don't see why this can't turn out good too.

Because people bitched about them not returning to the original plotline series. They have, but they're under no obligation to abandon the mechanics they've already implimented and have become standard.

Really, fans got what they asked for. Y'all should have been more specific about what you meant when you said 'going back to roots'.

:3c

I don't think I've ever heard Sonic fans complaining about plot, normally they complain that the game is crap.

As for Sega making good games recently, like what? They've published some good games, but not actually made any which come to mind.

actually, that's not true

we wanted:

no friends
side scroller
sprites
basically a genesis game

Game's not even out yet, and people are bitching about it already? Jesus.

It's a Sonic game with no new characters, 2D, the original gameplay with probably a classic plot. You guys are complaining about SEGA using the new design and tossing in the homing attack and not using sprites. If you wanna play the fucking genesis Sonic... GO PLAY THE FUCKING GENESIS SONIC. As for me and anyone else with sense, we'll (maybe) enjoy this new game as a breathe a fresh air with a hint of nostalgia. Its focus is on Sonic himself and speed, with the primary antagonist as Eggman. That's more than enough. Anything less and it's just Sonic 1-3 rehashed. Anything more, and it's the usual crap we've been getting fed since Sonic Adventure.

Still kinda regret the lack of Tails and Knuckles though. If it's a direct sequel, they shouldn't just suddenly not exist. At least the former.

I still say if they just did Sonic 1 with HD sprites it would be 80% better than what this game will more likely be.
