Actually, the best Sonic game is Smash Bros.  Sadly.  hilariously

I loved the practically all rails level that was in Sonic Adventure 2 Battle.  Me and my friend multied that level 100s of times.  So fun.

I hope this turns out to be a good successor to Sonic Adventure, my favorite Sonic game.

I always have a problem getting on/switching/getting off rails.  They be great if I could that.

I agree that the rails were great in Sonic Adventure 2, but I also agree with Ceric, it's too hard to jump well on them.  The entire engine/control mechanism for rails was terrible at best.

I liked them because they brought some old-school Sonic elements to the game.  However, in a game with 2D gameplay, they're a waste.

Sonic Rush had too much emphasis on speed. The Genesis Sonics were fast but they were still platformers, something I don't think is true of Sonic Rush, and until Sega brings those elements back I won't have much interest in the series.

No no no don't jump on to them, you get near them then press B and Sonic homes to the rail.  Try it, it made for some seriously badass multi races.

Right, I remember that.  Only, the distance to do so was fairly imperceivable, and you'd often wind up "bouncing" downwards to death as Sonic.

I don't know dude, 100s of play throughs probably would have never allowed for that kind of frustration.

Why Werehog why? Sega needs to farm the Sonic console games out to a western Dev.

Ahaha, isn't Sonic Unleashed being done by the U.S. Sonic Team?

It is being made by the team that made Sonic Rush.Which I believe is Dimps.

Oh yeah, the Wii version is...But I think they get their assets from the team that is developing the 360/PS3 versions (who I believe is the U.S. Sonic Team...)

You are right about that.
So what does everybody think of the screenshots?

Nice to see someone at Sega figure out how to make proper screenshots.  Tho they should've been 852x480 and not 640x360.

the graphics look decent but Sonic and the Secret looked good so that's no suprise. The games have a style that translates well between teh HD consoles and the Wii. I just don't like the Were-hog.

I'll definatley be giving this game a chance.  You never know, perhaps THIS will be the Sonic that Sega gets right.


I do wish, however, that they would let Dimps make a console 2D Sonic.  That would be awesome.

Would you prefer something like Megaman 9 on Wiiware or just a traditional console game like Wario land?

Without a doubt, a disc game like Wario Land.  Wii Ware has a size limit at, what, 40 megs?  That may be enough for an 8bit throw back like Mega Man, but it is just too limiting for what I want in a Sonic game.  Look at the DS titles, they are both 64MB, much more than the WiiWare limit.  I really wouldn't want a console game where the handheld verison has more content. 


But, uh, yeah, I want a disc title.  :P

Some details.
-Half of game is normal, the other half were-hog
-The Wii version is more similar to PS3/360 version, design and gameplay
-You use wiimote-nunchuk
-Won't have motion controls for attacking from the air,despite being similar to secret rings
-No motion controls for sidestep;you use B and Z.
-According to Sega game will be shown at TGS in October
-Won't show Black Knight; focusing on this one first.

I fully expect the Werehog parts to play better, be more intuitive, more challenging, and more fun than the Hedgehog parts.

Play Sonic 2, Sonic 3 and Knuckles, then go back to Rush and Rush 2, and you'll see that Dimps formula doesn't come close to the potential Sonic can show.  Those games have very little substance aside from running, which, while Sonic is known for speed, isn't the only ingredient for a good Sonic game.

I haven't played Rush yet so I really can't compare them objectively. I think Sonic is about blazing through varied environments and finding out the hidden areas.Generally having fun in the level.What is your take thatguy?

My brother being a damn sonic finatic, i'm sure to get this at some point (Probably for the 360 though, that's his system of choice).  I'm looking forward to the return classic sonic gameplay.
