Wow, it's been so long since I have started a new thread.

Anyways, SEGA have posted a new teaser trailer of an all new 2D Sonic game! The trailer says “Speed returns, in an all new 2D adventure built from the ground up”. Maybe it will come to Wii?

Discuss!

Who beat me to editing the title?

Like all of us, I for one cannot wait for this. Sega, if you screw this one up, just kill Sonic already.

Loved the first Sonic games on the Megadrive. If they are like that. I will truly be happy!

Hopefully it goes to all consoles, it be a pity to see a select group missing out.

About time! After having so many great 2.5D games on XBLA, it was a given that this needed to be done, especially considering how badly 3D Sonic games suck.

Sonic should be in 2D and nothing BUT 2D.

Back to basics! 2D games are great and the 2D Sonic series was fantastic. I'm looking forward to this, lets just hope that there's no swords or random crap added to it.

I'm glad that he's going back to 2D for the home consoles.

I always lol at the people who complain about the direction that Sonic has taken over the last decade while ignoring the fantastic handheld titles. Sonic Advance 1, 2 & 3 as well as the Rush titles on DS.

I am suprised I didn't faint when I saw this. You all know how much I love old school sonic. Where'd Tails go all of a sudden, i'd thought he'd be fanboying this thread up by now. I wouldn't of blamed him. It's what we've been waiting 9 years for!

I just hope this doesn't turn out like Sonic Rush and Sonic advance...you have broken my heart enough, SEGA. Please don't let me down again .

Sonic Advance/rush cons:
Absolute speed/poor level design = Being able to hold down right to beat a stage
Simple enemies = robots with guns, WAY too easy to kill o_O
Sonic boom = Being able to both of the above at the same time
Tricks = Gimmicks to try and some depth in controls which they obviously didn't need or had.

I love old-school sonic because it was able to pull off emmersive games without gimmicks like 'speed' and 'multiple button controls'
I played games with enemies you couldn't just run into, but would have to stop, and wait for the right time to attack enemies or dodge a well placed trap. I played games where if you just tried speeding through everything, you would be punished by losing ALL of your rings. Which is quite the opposite in Sonic rush. You are REWARDED for hold down right and spamming tired tricks and will hardly ever get hit. Also, in some of the newer sonic games you lose only 10 rings when hit.

This is why when I hear 'speed' I worry alot the future of my dream of a 'Sonic the hedgehog 4'

^^ dude they were handheld games they're meant to be more accessible. Getting an S ranking in all levels in Rush wasn't that easy.

Anyway, I thought that they were pretty good especially compared to the 3d business on the home consoles.

Doesn't help the fact that they were bad.
You can't tell me that these hand held consoles didn't have the power to project something with the quality of the genesis.
It was obvious that SEGA was trying to get a different market with Sonic rush/ advance...the N00b kiddie market *Shudders*
I can think of alot of children who when handed a copy of the originals to play with, stop playing because 'it's too hard'. Considering how many times SEGA have done this with Sonic, who's to say they won't make this game dumbed down. Remember Dossaer, This ain't SEGA's peak of success back in 1994, SEGA have been screwing with us hard-core fans for a long time.

I liked Sonic 2 better but they were hardly bad games and it's not just me either, check the critical reaction to any of them. I really do understand the old school ranter mentality, heck I play contra 3 for fun on the weekends, but I don't think it's warranted here; easy games aren't automatically bad.

Now go and relax and play your favourite Sonic game.

I think I'll do the same and cross my fingers that they get it right this time for the home consoles.

Optimism FTW!

I imagine they will Flesh out the 2.5D style sections from Sonic Unleashed as these were generally very well received. An old style pure 2D sonic (with sprites) might be too much to hope for but I will hope for it anyways.
King of Fighters 12 showed how beautiful 2D sprites can be on the HD systems. And on Wii, Wario Shake Dimension was a good example of gorgeous 2D art.

I was playing Sonic 3 before I jumped in this thread, lol. Not saying they were easy and it caused them to be bad...just everything was so generic in gameplay. I could do a comparison but I think I am all ranted out. Nonetheless I am still at the edge of my seat for this.

Kewl! All I'm saying is that I'm hardly n00b gamer and that they were great fun.

I really hope for their own sake that they get it right, I don't wanna see you go postal



I think we may need an old school Sonic medal series (with awesome animated medals) it hardly seems fair that we did one for Mario and not for Sonic...

I'll get back to you all on this one shortly.

Me and Tails earn it by default.
Oh and you definately don't wanna see me go postal. I was playing Sonic the Hedgehog 2 at a friend's party on their PS3. Naturally I complained because the PS3 controller just didn't play as well as the Megadrive controller. Nonetheless I made it to Death egg zone and was in a heated battle. Because this was a party everyone was watching. But unannounced, someone was setting up the Guitar hero in the other room where the projector was and needed the PS3. So he comes into the rooms and without thought and unplugs it. He thought I was playing on the Megadrive. The screen went blank, and (because everyone knows how I feel about Sonic) the room fell silent...

Guess what happened next.
