ITT: Sonic Games

That is surreal as fuck.

Here's hoping for cameos by Sonics from shittier games that are only there to die in horrible ways. Like the Were-hog having his limbs ripped off and bleeding to death slowly or Black Knight Sonic tripping and impaling himself with his own sword. That'd be fucking awesome.

speaking of which I would actually be moderately interested in this if it has classic Eggman and they called him "Robotnik"

Hey whatever happened to Sonic 4 Episode 2? I know there was that article Fusion posted where a SEGA exec basically threw the first episode under the bus and stated Colors was the game they really wanted to be good along... but still I'm actually slightly surprised we haven't heard anything about episode 2 yet, it's rather un-SEGAish.

Dimps might be busy with other projects.  If I call it right, they're currently busy with Sonic Generations.

After the success of Colors and relative lukewarm reception of Sonic 4 Episode 1 I'd imagine they'd have the Colors team work on this instead of Dimps.

Here have some Sonic Generations footage Classic Sonic plays like you would expect in a 2d plane. Modern Sonic seems to be of the Unleashed/Colors variety. They both go through the same areas but with radically different routes.

So it would be fair to say that both Dimps AND the Colors team are working on this then.

Also given this it might be safe to say Sonic 4 was swept under the rug at this point.

Edit: Also some impressions from Joystiq which played a demo. Also a bit on the story (basic time fuckery nothing to write home about) and confirmation the game will revisit a few different past locales none specifically named but at the very least something from the "Dreamcast era and the Modern era".

They're still making Mario and Sonic Olympics games in case you thought they were going to stop.

Heh, Sonic Generations is taking a page straight out of that fangame it seems.


My only gripe is it doesn't look like there are very many enemies.

You know there is a quote option right? See like this:

That was a bot. Took a few posts for me to see it, but then I noticed it was just copypasting everything and adding a random smiley.

[UHMEEEEBA]

Odd it didn't copy the full post. I don't see the point of a bot with such a behavior.

[Jesuszilla]

Well see how easily it fooled us for a while? Well, even if it WAS for 2 posts, that's still longer than it would have taken to detect most other bots.

Yeah...

[UHMEEEEBA]

Well anyways back on topic, Sega will be throwing a party while E3 is still going on, a playable demo of Sonic Generations will be present. Probably just the same one Joystiq tried though so don't expect anything new announced.
