| Avalach21 said: honest to God, I've been a Sonic fan since 1992, and I really really really want to like this game, but it doesn't look good. This isn't the old Sonic. The old sonic games were platforming games with creative level design. From this video I gather that unleashed lacks both of these aspects. |
It's an interesting quirk of industry commentators that they all seem to believe that creating a Sonic game true to its roots requires the game to be ridiculously fast without anything else. Of course anyone who has spent any time with the Sonic series knows that this is not true, whilst you could obviously go fast, many of the games required you to explore the environments (typically to become Super Sonic).
Until SEGA address this issue, which funnily enough wasn't present in either SA 1 or 2, they will not make a great Sonic game in 3D.
Debating with fanboys, its not
all that dissimilar to banging ones
head against a wall
