I hate the stage but I like the song.

[Jayster23]

The beat to the song in the background also had like a halloweeny presence to it

[DavidtheDeadPhilosopher]

I always thought it had quite a "Mystic Cave Zone" vibe to it

Anyone else was dissapointed to have Tails's mission done in a machine?

I know I was pretty disappointed lol. So when I was in the Chaos world with Tails I was happy I got to walk and fly around without that big machine :C

[DavidtheDeadPhilosopher]

Well when I first played it yes, but in hindsight (bare in mind hindsight being 20/20) I ended up enjoying these Tails segments over any other Tails segment in a modern game. (Adventure 1 suffering from slightly awkward controls, and bad mission structure, and Sonic 06 suffering from being Sonic 06. I mean really Ring Bombs.)

[Jayster23]

I really disliked the machine as well, I was looking forward to flying around with Tails and cutting stuff with my tails whilst spinning on one finger. All well, it wasn't too bad but yeah. Prefer to walk around with him and fly like in Adventure 1. Just skip half the stage by cutting across.

[LilJz1234]

But I guess they had to be in par with Eggman since he can't do much running with his figure lol. And Tails being the mechanic of the group had to suffer being in a machine

But I gotta agree, some stage were pretty fun with the machine. Also locking on to tons of enemies and gimmicks and then firing all at once was such an awesome feeling

[Corvidae]

Eggman running around in Chao Garden in Adventure 2 is seriously the funniest thing ever.

Welcome, folks! (b'-')b

Aaaa we should have a song of the week or something! So many cool songs and we have enough people posting around here to vote on something like that. :P

Has anyone played Sonic Jump?
Nope, I don't have that game. The only game I have bought on mobile is Sonic and Sega All-Stars Racing. I bought it on a whim because Sega Blogs posted about the sale. It's an alright game, as I understand that mobile versions have their limitations.

Anyone else disappointed to have Tails's mission done in a machine?
I don't mind playing as the mech in SA2. I do miss flying around, but I also feel quite satisfied when I lock on multiple enemies and blow them up to get the bonus points. Tails will likely ditch the machine, if he ever becomes a playable character...

Which seems likely if these rumors are true!

Here is the article about a Sonic game being teased during February. Thoughts? Link

Sources close to SEGA have informed The Sonic Stadium that the publisher intends to announce/tease a new game within the Sonic the Hedgehog series next month. Sonic fans will recall that February 2nd is of course what SEGA calls ‘Hedgehog Day’, a day the company usually likes to tease fans about upcoming Sonic games. However, one of our sources states that the game won’t be announced until mid-February, while another just says we “will hear about it from official sources next month”. It’s likely SEGA could tease a reveal on Hedgehog Day and make a proper announcement later in the month.

One source has shared what they allege to be details about the new game. The game’s title doesn’t appear to be finalized yet, but its platforms are. It will be released on Wii U, PS3, 360, 3DS, PS Vita, PC, and “Next gen” consoles. This source says anything involving these new consoles is strictly confidential to people at the top of the company, so they unfortunately don’t have any information to share about those versions. As for the other versions, the source states the console, PC and PS Vita versions will be identical aside from the graphical differences, while the 3DS version will be another Sonic Rush styled game.

The source elaborates that the console version of this new game will be sticking with the recent formula seen in Sonic Unleashed (Daytime), Sonic Colours and Sonic Generations where gameplay switches between full 3D movement and 2D side-scrolling sections. Multiple routes through a stage will return, but this time you will have an incentive to play through them all. Each route in a stage will lead to one of two or three exits at the end that will each take you to a different stage. You will always end up at the same final stage, though. Our source says final stage count hasn’t been decided, but the developers are trying for a least 20 diferent stages, not including boss battles.

Character wise, our source says you will begin the game with Sonic and unlock other characters to play as by completing stages. It’s been made clear that this doesn’t mean 20+ characters are available, though. “For example, you might unlock Knuckles in any one of three stages. Sometimes, if you already have a character that would be unlocked first, a different one may be unlocked. Altogether we’re looking at about 10 different characters to play with, and no, Sonic isn’t getting any new friends. All of the playable characters will be existing Sonic characters.”

Our source goes on to explain that each character will have their own skills to help them progress in stages easier where others will have more difficulty or simply cannot ala Sonic 3 & Knuckles and the Sonic Advance series. One example described involves Sonic and Shadow not being able to make it up a wall, while Tails can easily fly up there or Knuckles can climb, allowing them access to an exit Sonic and Shadow can’t reach. Despite that, our source assures us that stages can be replayed with any character of your choice, though.

Moving on to the 3DS version, the source says it will be “similar in idea, but smaller in scope”. The developers are trying to fit all of the characters into the game, but it will feature far fewer stages. There will still be many paths through stages, but at this point, the source says it looks like every stage will only ever branch off into 2 stages.

Our source ends by telling us “All in all, the games look very promising at this point” and assures us that SEGA has their best developers working on the games and that they have been in the works since before Sonic Generations. The game should be out in stores this Fall/Autumn, or at the latest, Winter. Another source corroborates the Fall schedule and expects the game to be released around September.

We have verified our sources as best as we can, but until official confirmation is made by SEGA, we’re marking this rumour for now.

This sounds pretty beastly in concept. I just want them to take their time on it though. Make sure it's good before it's released. The last game to look good in concept...well....

it broke my heart

I second this.

Sounds like Sonic Adventure 3 may be on its way!

[LilJz1234]

So today i bought Sonic Rush for 7$, I'm quite happy with it

[Artificial-Insanity]

Sonic Rush, you say?

The only reason I wanted a DS so badly way back when, was JUST to play that game! <3

Loved it to bits and pieces!

[Jayster23]

Ugh.. Sonic Rush, that game drove me up the wall. Same as rush adventure, both weren't to bad though. Good bargain for $7

Seriously hoping it's like generations but with chao garden and multiple playable characters

[Corvidae]

The music from that game was classy.

THIS STAGE WAS NOT THOUGH ASFASFASDDSASDJFKASFHKASJ

ALL THE RAGE

ALL THE THROWN DS's

ALL THE TANTRUMS

[LilJz1234]

They don't have any Chaos Garden in Sonic Rush? That's too bad =/

Say, for anyone who got Sonic Adventure 2 Battle, did you ever spent most of your time taking care of your chaos or you mostly focused on the main storyline?

[Corvidae]

I spent over 1000 hours working on my Chao Iggy.

Because he's awesome.

[LilJz1234]

Do you still have it? I wanna see it's stats and how it looks like. I can show you some of my Chaos I've been breeding since the 6th grade

That sound like a good idea actually.

As for my case on the rumors, at this point I'm pretty shocked there's that many character options. Then again, if they are grouped based on how Heroes classified them while still being playable then I can see something out of that. However, with the current gameplay style and how a majority of the cast don't mesh well with it Sonic Team need to be really ambiguous enough to alter the style in some way to accommodate the characters.

[Jayster23]

I spent a lot of time working on Sonic and Shadow chaos

[DavidtheDeadPhilosopher]

Well, Today is Hedgehog Day and Sega of America has given us nothing but a red herring.

The sheer amount of "omigawditsSA3" or over-analyzing is kinda hilarious. Intriguing, but hilarious.

I've never actually played any of the Sonic Adventure titles. D: But I do know that Tails had that machine thingo, and in the alternate universe where I actually had a chance to play those games, I probably would have been disappointed, even if it was just a little. I like Tails a lot. I'm pretty sure he was my favorite back then, and I don't really like anyone more than the fox right now (maybe Sonic, but yeah), so he's still up there.

But I digress. All I'm saying is, Tails deserves the ability to be free from machinery. :p

Hedgehog Day sounded fun! What happened with the franchise then? Are we getting a new title? :D
