They just need to make more Sonic games like this:

Generations was probably the best Sonic game of the last 15 years.

Generations was boring imo, 2.5D platforming interspersed with Genreations-esque speed sections. Adventure Series was the pinnacle of 3D platforming Sonic, the issues mainly tecnical, had Sonic 06 actually been SA3, no bugs with more speed it would be much better. Assuming we are talking about an actual 3D sonic game.

The problem really is that people always approach the Sonic´ games with unreasonable expectatives, like that the game will not be a gigantic piece of crap, that is just not fair. =/



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

How does Sonic revive himself from the dead after Sonic 06 with Unleashed, Colors, 4 and Generations and fall back in this slop? Lost World disrupted the successful formula and Boom is a cash in. The series acts like it doesn't know how to keep a successful formula and has identity crisis

Lost World disrupted nothing, and was prey mostly to the Wii U's weak install base and a few baffling structural changes (like how 100 rings no longer meant a 1-up, which, combined with how quickly you get killed in Lost World, threw the difficulty curve off a cliff). It's still got the 2D-3D hybrid gameplay, just now with 3D levels that don't suck like Unleashed/Colors/Generations.

well was anyone expecting it to be good?

Some people in the team worked on Uncharted, Ratchet & Clank, and Jak & Daxter, so yes.

OP: Probably not going to get the Wii U version. It looked okay at first, but when I saw actual gameplay I didn't like it that much.


I think it may be sabotage.  Give Nintendo garbage, while Sony gets hits... lol.

So... Sega Can't Save Sonic, External Developer Can't Save Sonic... Can anyone save Sonic?


Sega gave Nintendo the best F-Zero game ever.

Maybe Nintendo could return the favor and make the best 3D Sonic game ever.

yes it did, reception and sales, you can blame WIi U all you want. People didnt like the game, so they didnt buy it. If it was actually good it would have legs. 3ds did better but not much and that has a much better install base. excuses



Worse than Sonic fucking 06?! I highly doubt that guy even played Sonic 06!

Worst Sonic game because it isn't aimed at mainline Sonic fans nor is a mainline Sonic game?

Anyone crying about Sonic Boom for being what it is is a man child, an idiot, ignorant and foolish individual. Developers them self said that it isn't aimed at mainline/core Sonic fans and they won't cater to them yet these Sonic fans are bunch of idiots crying about Sonic Boom when they have no right so as developers them self said again that it isn't aimed for them so how these fans have a right to complain about something that really has nothing to do with them except it is Sonic game that isn't for them, they use Sonic characters but does that mean that developers should cater to them and turn it into a mainline sonic game? No.

Also, should they really sacrifice platforming for speed and go away from what a Sonic game should be? Platforming and not speed as some want to believe, Sonic's speed is an illusion and it really wasn't about speed to begin with when Sonic franchise started. It was only used in marketing like that blast processing yet people as people are, they are stupid and can't understand simple explanations that are painfully obvious.

Now I am playing the role of mister obvious yet I can't because people can't see something so obvious that it is in front of them, its on their forehead yet they are stupid, borderline tarded. Bunch of wankers...

Also I laugh how people complained about Sonic Lost World being slow in 3D when it was the same speed as in 2D sections, people are just too stupid. Guess people nowadays have sub human inteligence compared to 10 years ago or more. At least people did some research versus nowadays. Painful.

kettle meet pot, if you actual read what he said the issue was with the controls. Dont know where you are getting this mainstream Sonic thing from. Doesnt matter who the game is aimed it if the controls suck, the game sucks.
