Also, am I the only one one who prefer the new style Sonic has nowadays? Sure the games weren't as good, but the new style is better than the old childish one.



I kind of like the childish, lighter, cartoony look to games and stuff overall. Everything is too serious and dark nowadays. It's nice to have something more laid back, especially something that's reminiscent of when I didn't have to give a shit about much more than video games.

Retro Sonic is way too cute in 3D. :3!

(I'm just sad the wii is getting screwed over. D: )

Well, it's hard to judge from zero gameplay footage, but I don't understand the rage. What's the deal guys? Sure Sonic's been in shit, but maybe this is the Sonic 2006 done right that we should've gotten five years ago. Like I said, hard to tell from a CGI intro, but it looks good so, why not give it a chance? Also, Sonic 4 wasn't that bad. Good idea, mediocre presentation.

I guess this is their answer to all those people saying "Arms are too long! Spines are too long! We want the old Sonic design back!"


I'm just curious to see what they make of this. If they're using both "classic" and new Sonic designs, we can be sure that at least Sonic will be in 3D.

Sonic Colors was getting there, it was waaaay more lighthearted than any of the other 3D Sonic games.

I'm not raging at all and I actually LIKED Sonic 4 despite its flaws. I also like both new AND old school sonic, as long as it isn't complete ass like Sonic 06 (and even then I still bothered to watch all of the cutscenes on Youtube. Complete waste of 2 hours of my life ). As long as the game is fun and actually playable, then I really don't care what they do with Sonic, because I'll still enjoy it. Since I really liked the feel of Sonic Colours, and since this is really nothing to go on, but it hints at more of what Sonic Colors did right, all I can really say is "Yay! Sonic Cycle is broken most likely".

It's going to suck. Sega will make this look like the return of Sonic, only to rush it out with glitches and broken gameplay.

It's the cycle of Sonic, Sega markets it as a return to the classics, and the final product ends up being rushed and glitchy.

Heh, I know you said less than 20.00, but if you don't mind adding on a extra 10.00 later, wtf not get this in 2 weeks ?

New info out.

Must. Not. Get. Hyped.

In all seriousness though, I like the idea, but we've been promised this thousands of times.

Them addressing the momentum of Sonic 4 is a plus though.

Okay, now that is an idea I like. Two unique ways of looking at the levels? I like.

Too bad it's not coming to the Wii, as otherwise I'll never get to play it. Sonic Colors looked amazing, but I guess it's not enough for them. Gotta have 30000 poly cliffs and photorealistic water!


Though if they really are doing Sonic Adventure stages as they say they are, they'd better put HD Egg Carrier in there. Please?

2D and 3D versions of the same level is kind of reminding me of Super Paper Mario... hopefully the 3D levels will be less sparse than in that game.

can't change the topic title fffffffff

Also some more info from the Sega America blog post.


Sonic’s universe is thrown into chaos when a mysterious new power creates ‘time holes’ which pull him and his friends back through time. As a result, he encounters some surprises from his past history including Classic Sonic, Sonic as he was in 1991.

Modern Sonic and Classic Sonic must defeat this strange new enemy, save their friends, and find out who really is behind this diabolical deed…


Nothing much else to say other than level design looks neat and Hedgehog Engine once again is making the graphics look stunning.

Looks pretty great. Except for the whole no Wii part.

Seems pretty good so far, contrary to people still stuck in 2005.

New sonic looks like there's a risk of being a little too much at once, but I can't really tell for real until I try it.

Old sonic is looking quite amazing though!

Agreed on the new sonic part, It looked as though everything was coming at you at once, And with obstacles like that, It would probably be a nightmare to try and perfect. (And that was just the Green Hills Zone, Imagine later zones.)

You know, I don't really care if it's new sonic or old sonic style gameplay, both have the same error of not having enough time to react to obstacles.

The game looks fine so far, but I'm a bit disappointed with the classic sonic part, it looks almost like a 100% remake of green hill zone from the classic game, if you wanted that you could go play that game instead. :/

I will most likely not get to play this game at all though, seeing as I have a wii and not one of the other systems.

The beginning looked like a condensed version of GHZ Act 1 - the first segment, the S-tube and the rings in the air -, but beyond that I didn't see that much of a resemblance. Admittedly, I don't know GHZ in its entirety by heart, tho.

Anyway, I like what I'm seeing - and hearing for that matter. It's not perfect, with, especially for modern Sonic's gameplay, again little time to react to enemies, QTEs and the like, but as long as it hasn't any game-breaking bugs (or "features") in it and ends up as simply fun to play - which this seems like it's shaping up to be - I don't mind.
