I think if Mario can do well with their new 2D look for New Super Mario Bros. Wii then im sure Sega can do just like that with Sonic.

I've played the most recent ones and had a great time.  Too bad.

All this Sonic Talk makes me want to buy back a dreamcast and go nuts. but Unleashed was a great step in the right direction but they fucked up with the werehog stages.

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

PROOF THAT SEGA DOES NOT CARE ABOUT MAKING GOOD SONIC GAMES!

These are my main problems with the new Sonic games.

  • Gimmicks like the werehog, the sword, pointless RPG-like elements, and extremely boring exploration stages. (These are put in as filler so they don't have to spend any time in making decent levels as they know they don't have to because people will buy the game no matter what.)
  • Cutscenes which are boring and interupt gameplay.
  • Characters like Shadow, Sliver, Blaze, Cream etc... (Just have Sonic, Tails and Knuckles)
  • Storyline...just awful, they rip of Final Fantasy a lot which they should never do.
  • Sonic 06 wasn't finished and glitches, framerate problems, controll issues etc...
  • Voice actors... Tails has the worst voice actor ever!

Because in this market and enviroment... a bad 3D sonic game will probably outsell a good 2D sonic game.

I blame Sony. I think they were the ones who pushed 3D so hard in the PS1 era suggesting anything 2D was worthless. I know they put pressure on publishers like that anyway.

You sure that was Sony and not Nintendo?

Pretty sure.  I mean by the time the N64 came out it was irrelevent.

Pretty sure Sony had some weird 3D policy.  Not allowing a 2D game unless you had so many 3d ones in production.  somethin weird.

I think Virtua fighter should get the blame....When that game released (one of the first 3D game) devs were motivated to make 3D games...Before Virtua Fighter not many devs wanted to make 3D games.

It was a few years back but it really does show how incompitent people at Sonic Team are.

Having said that I will give them a chance with this new 2D game. It looks like they have finally been listening to the fans.
