A Sonic Team and Dimps co-production, Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I is the first part of the next numeric chapter (though really the twenty-sixth entry) in the adventures of Sega's longtime mascot.
What are you expecting from the new console 2D Sonic game?
" I dont think anyone should expect anything from a sonic game ever again at this point. Expect shouldnt be a word in the dictionary to use anywhere with sonic near it. "Agreed.
Hopefully Sonic Rush considering that's my favorite Sonic game of all time,
Sonic 1 & 2 and close though...
My expectations are dependant on who's making it. If it's Dimps, somethink akin to Rush is likely, but if it's Sonic Team, well, we all know where that ends up these days.
" i expect sonic the hedgehog 4, about 15 years late. "I hope it turns out to be Sonic 4 (more as in a successor to the old Mega Drive Sonic games than a full blown sequel to Sonic 3 & Knuckles.)
Then again, Sonic Unleashed was meant to be going back to the roots of Sonic, but it failed to deliever. (It wasn't as bad as Sonic 06, but it certainly wasn't groundbreaking.)
I'm expecting Sonic Unleashed without the Werehog parts, but with some other horrible gameplay section/mechanic in its stead.
"i expect sonic the hedgehog 4, about 15 years late. "im pritty sure that was "Sonic & Knukles" Im expecting sonic as he was in his prime in the late early - mid 90's (or sumthing like sonic advence 3 in HD)
Have anyone of you guys have played the Sonic Rush games? Obviously, you guys have not, just like the 3D Sonic games.
Sonic Unleashed was a fun game. Critics just dismiss it as "terrible" because they think it's not as good as the 2D games. Seriously, there were aspect to Sonic Unleashed that was great and critics found every everything about it as crap, I don't believe they played the game with a open mind.
" @Halberdierv2 said:Sonic & Knuckles was as much a sequel to Sonic 3 as Left 4 Dead 2 is to Left 4 Dead. ZING!"i expect sonic the hedgehog 4, about 15 years late. "im pritty sure that was "Sonic & Knukles" Im expecting sonic as he was in his prime in the late early - mid 90's (or sumthing like sonic advence 3 in HD) "
I REALLY want to expect that Sega have learnt from their mistakes, and it's gonna be a return to form. But I can't... Sonic 3 was a LONG time ago.
" I'm expecting Sonic Unleashed without the warehog sections. "This would be heaven for me.
Something along the lines of Sonic Rush or Unleashed without the werehog sections.
AKA something people will praise for being how Sonic should be done, despite the glaring level design faults and the pits of death every few seconds that require you to memorize the level before being able to avoid them.
Whatever it turns out to be I just hope its good. Its been way too long since we had a good Sonic game on a console.
This is what I want. However it is not what I expect." i expect sonic the hedgehog 4, about 15 years late. "
I want them to use the original design. None of this long limbed green eyed Sonic Adventure shit.
I want Sonic to go so fast in it he actually flies out of the right hand side of my tv!..
and infinite lives.. just a better penalty for dying, like a 10 second penalty or something making the time you do the level the real goal.
no underwater/air bubble levels
invincibility music from first/second game
multiple routes through levels like the CD game.
...and every level has to be chemical plant zone. (maybe)
I have not heard much of this Project NeedleMouse or whatnot, but if it gets good reviews, then i might look into it.
Sonic died for me after Sonic 3 came out, so it will take me a long time to get him back in my good books.
" You know how Nintendo had SEGA make F Zero on the GameCube? SEGA know their racing games......But they've lost their touch with platformers. They should just pass Sonic to Nintendo. New Sonic & Knuckles Wii/DS? Yes please... If only. "Provided they didnt make it have mandatory waggle control I am 100% behind you on that. I think Sonic built on the New Super Mario Bros. Wii engine would be amazing.
Well based on the little bit I've heard and seen, all I can expect is a 2D Sonic with beautiful graphics. What I hope for is a Sonic game with Tails & Knuckles in it where they all have seperate 10+ unique levels and of course semi-co-op with Knuckles & Tails.
" @pause422 said:What if you said "I expect the Sonic Blast will destroy the building" or something like that... huh? HUH?!" I dont think anyone should expect anything from a sonic game ever again at this point. Expect shouldnt be a word in the dictionary to use anywhere with sonic near it. "Agreed. "
anyways, the game is looking good...
Sonic is the only playable character, but I was hoping for a few more playable characters, but optional through a character select screen. Knuckles is my favorite Sonic character and I would like to use him. And of course with Knuckles playable, you need to make Tails playable too.
