Forums - Gaming - Am I Late to the Party? Sonic Mania Looks Terrific!

It looks awesome. But there was really no reason why they couldn't make a game that played like the Sega Genesis games, while using proper 2017 graphics technologies. That pixelated look needs to go away. It is way overused these days. This game could have looked glorious with proper HD sprites.

Fair enough. Music sounds perfect though.



guiduc. have you tried Freedom Planet? It's an awesome platformer inspired by the 4th gen Sonic games.

Should buy and try it via Steam. Definitely looks good from the videos I'm watching. Thanks for the heads up!

Do you have a WiiU? I actually have a spare code for the game.

Damn, I had one!! I just gave it to my local Ebgames in exchange of a discount on Switch... couldn't refuse a 250$ discount.

Well, there was Sonic 4, episodes 1 and 2, as well as Sonic Generations, which used more modern graphics, so one going back to Sonic's roots seems like a nice return.

Yeah, you're kinda late, but it gives people another opportunity to talk about how awesome the game looks. I am so glad it's coming to the switch. I am so buying this now
