Ok. kinda lame. everything is hand fed to you. he is following a pre-set path, high speed. you aren’t really doing any of the work yourself.
twisty rails? cool for show. but its just show. all you’re going to do is just WATCH this game.

Because the Sonic Advance series was developed by Dimps, not Sonic Team. It has noting to do with formula, but with the competence of the developers; Shadow and 06 were bad because ST lost its way for awhile, but this new(ish) team seems to be shaping up nicely.

Also, in 06 they mostly showed us CGI, but these videos are of actual gameplay - it makes the difference when you can see what’s coming. Take it as you will.

If you want a game that is not full of glitches and piss-poor level design, then year we are being really picky. I don’t get how the Sonic Advance series could be decent, but Sonic 2006 and Shadow the Hedgehog turned out so bad. SEGA should not had gone away from the SA formula so quickly. They had a chance to improve upon it.

The only thing I hate is when we watch him run from behind [such as 0:43 thru 0:50] - his legs should be a blur of red like in 1991. I miss the blue body attached to a spinning red blur when he runs. Everything else looks incredible.

When Sonic is sliding down the rails above that suburban neighbourhood, that’s some pretty good-looking shit going on.

Alright, IT looks nothing like at SGD and I doubt all the issues were fixed in one month. So I’m going to say its camera tricks etc.

Issues we still have:
- Two levels shown…
- Werewolf not shown
- You will play with sidekicks
- Game heading to 4 plateforms
- Games aim is to run at 30 fps (Adventure was too but it wasn’t this fast, GC versions where 60 but it dipped well be below this)

Looks like it has some potential. I have no doubt in SEGA’s ability to make a game look good(graphics don’t mean a thing at this point, so mentioning them seems asinine). I do lack their ability to create quality Sony titles that do not use 2D graphics.

This company has dropped the ball big time over the last 5 or so Sonic related releases(they need to hire testers, because the glitches are what have broken their games), and I don’t have faith in this one at all. I’m waiting for this to come out so I can rent it for a few days.
