The trailer was just thrown together quickly to raise awareness and get some the hype started.

I'm starting to simmer down, I'm hoping they don't fuck this up. I would be lieing if I said I wasn't a very happy Sonic fan right now.

I think I want to see gameplay before I go crazy or point out flaws, but it did seem very "speed" oriented. We'll see, it's possible they just made it look like that to arouse the attention of fans who feel as if Sonic has been "slowed down" by silly gimmicks like the Werehog and treasure hunting.

I hope they do a complete new redesign of Sonic, just that it doesn't have that "EXTREME" look to him anymore.

Sega, please don't fuck up. This is your last chance. sad.png

The silhouette at the end doesn't even look like Sonic in my opinion:



A redesign, maybe?

I find it especially awesome as well that they release this trailer about an hour before the Dreamcast's anniversary. This was definitely planned for awhile, those sneaky bastards.

Looks like Sonic 1 Sonic to me.

I'd love to see them go all the way with this. Really.

Pretty much this. I'm happy there's finally something that will probably be critically acclaimed (If it's actually good looking, that is) and different than the usual stupid and gritty Sonic games as of late. It's gonna be nice to be able to play a new Sonic game with no story, all 2D levels, and nice, classic, music and themes throughout the game.

Thats what I was thinking. Looks more like the sonic in the early 90's

They better actually study what made the old 2d games good or this is just gonna be like sonic rush or something, where the perspective doesn't keep the game from being a trainwreck.

Well, that's why I expressed my own concern—the trailer seems to flaunt "speed" as the appeal of this new game, when the originals had so many more factors that made them so enjoyable. Speed is important, but it's hardly the primary factor that made classic Sonic games as great as they were.


It's called advertisement assholes.

How? Unless he's all of a sudden got massive ears or spikes that protrude on either side of his head.
