MM9 was more than 1000 points? I never bought it so I wouldn't know.

| Regarding the "Episode" thing: the only thing that "episdoe one" implies is that there will be more in the future. (Whether that's good or bad is impossible to know at this point.) As some of you have mentioned, I think this will be more like Sonic 3 & Knuckles in that every episode will be pieces of the the whole "game," Sonic the Hedgehog 4, yet they will all still be able to stand on their own; not even Sega would release a game without some sort of finale just because it's just an "episode," and not the entire game. (We'll just have to see about the length, though.) Regarding the gameplay: as I recall, the two Sonic games following the original implemented at least one completely new element and several minor additions to the gameplay, effectively "fixing" what was not broken each and every time. Why should that suddenly be a problem to the point at which the gameplay should remain just like it was in S3&K? Granted, Sega doesn't have a very good track record these days with their additions, and even I'm skeptical about, say, a homing attack working all that well, but I really doubt that change is necessarily the enemy here, which that brings me to... Regarding the design: Even if this is supposed to be a direct sequel to the Sonic games of old, I think it's sort of silly to expect the game to retain all of the little details that the old ones had in their design. I didn't get upset when the colors of the Mario Brothers' overalls changed, or when Luigi seemed to stop being Mario's identical twin (or his carbon copy, for that matter), or even when Princess Toadstool became Princess Peach, and I also wasn't upset about these modern details remaining in New Super Mario Bros. when it came out, even though it was to the Mario series back then as Sonic 4 is to the Sonic series right now; somehow, I doubt any of you were upset about that either. What makes the length of some spikes, some dust, and the difference between a real name and a popular nickname (that might as well be a real name) so special here? Essentially, my point is if they're going to make a 'Sonic 4,' it ought to be done without just making another S3&K. So, yeah, I'd like to see Sega actually pull off making a game worthy of being called a direct sequel to my beloved S3&K while still adding that touch of originality that every good sequel needs to stand on its own, but it's still far too early to expect anything of the sort yet. |
