Now most of you young whippersnappers will be going: FINALLY THOSE OLD FARTS CAN SHUT UP NOW ABOUT THE OLDSCHOOL SONIC. Well let me tell you, Sega has already managed to screwed it up.
- It's an actual sequel follow up to Sonic and Knuckles.
- You only play as plain Sonic. That's right no light saber wielding motorcycle riding sonic.
- Robotnik is the villain (though he will be referred to as Eggman)
- Simplified gameplay (or what appears to be simplified)
- Use of old logo and font!
Here's why we old folks are griping:
- When you tell us 2d, we were expecting sprites. That's right sprites. Not this polygon in a 2d view point.
- It's the new sonic design.
- There's a plot?
- Episode 1. REALLY?
The music has not been released yet so that is still up for judgment.
While I maybe judging the game too harshly even before it's release, may I remind you the "Sonic" games they have released:
Sonic Adventure, Adventure 2, Shuffle, Battle, Heroes, Rush, Rush Adventure, Secret Rings, Black Knight, Rivals, and Riders.
I'm probably missing a bunch of other dumb games, but the point I am making is that Sega has yet to convince me of anything.
You forgot the Advance games, which were pretty good, aside from cheap obstacles out of nowhere that broke the stride.
ReplyDeleteYou sure they aren't sprites? They really looked like the sprites from 3D Blast to me, which would explain Sonic's apparent new fondness for power-walking.
There's no hope for this already.
ReplyDeleteI'm taking bets that sonic talks in this, completely ruining it for me.
