Link EDIT: Seems the link is dead now, sorry...

You know what, Sonic Team? I forgive you. I forgive you for the poor camera angles. I forgive you for the poor level designs. I forgive you for everything. This.... This looks almost orgasmic. And the 3D boss thing looks awesome.

Wow, that just moved WAY up on my "Kill someone to get it if you have to" list. The 2D part looked awesome (that is, assuming they don't let you win by hold right the whole time

), and the 3D boss was way better than I expected.

I give it:

Oh my GOD! And here I was ready to declare Sonic Team past their prime, not really worth talking about, and then this comes. Simply jaw dropping, if it plays half as good as it looks, man... I'm pumped for this one.

joshnickerson · « **Reply #3 on:** May 22, 2005, 02:26:25 PM »

It's official. Sonic Team can only work in a 2-D environment *L*

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #4 on:** May 22, 2005, 03:09:31 PM »

Hey, I'm excited too, but we should really wait to see how the game PLAYS first...

Jaw on the FLOOR!!!

Man, I hope this plays good cuz they're already seem to have the presentation down!

It's a 2D Sonic. How can it not play good?

Don't bother buying it now, I just jinxed the game.

This looks quite cool. I like how they're making use of having two screens to extent the size of the environment instead of focusing so much on the touchscreen. When I first saw the Sonic demo back when the DS was first revealed I was really uninterested. But this looks like the Sonic game we've wanted for a while.

Only Nintendo can take a sidescrolling 2D game and turn it into a great 3D game. Castlevania, Sonic, Mega Man, Contra, etc should all stay 2D because it's clear the companies that own those franchises don't have the skill to change dimensions.

Thank you very much for that link...that video blew me away, first time I saw a Sonic Rush clip.
It looked very seamless bouncing from screen to the next, very fast and smooth and just looked RIGHT. The transitions were also excellent.
The game is now a blip on my game radar, and I hope Sonic Team will be able to deliver on the promise exhibited in that clip.

In regards to Ian Sane's comment: there are a good number of folks who loved Rockman Dash, you know. I also remember Castlevania for the PS2 getting decent reviews but personally I doubt I would like them more than the PS/GBA-style Castlevanias.

Hmm... can't seem to download it. I just get a 404 error.

please some give me a working link I must download it NOW!

Renny · « **Reply #12 on:** May 24, 2005, 10:36:13 AM »

Edit: Dead link. Sorry.

NotSoStu · « **Reply #13 on:** May 24, 2005, 10:48:13 AM »

Oh, crap... This is the only Sonic Rush video I've seen. Perhaps I can find some hidden in a random person's blog

Renny · « **Reply #14 on:** May 24, 2005, 11:34:40 AM »

This one?

Indeed, as the remarkable preview feature tells me.

thepoga · « **Reply #15 on:** May 24, 2005, 01:35:32 PM »

the dead link was a really nice video of direct feed. So no, it wasnt that one. But at least there IS one. I can't find one on any other site.

IceCold · « **Reply #16 on:** November 02, 2005, 01:18:36 PM »

Well, some impressions are out... I've been dying for information on this game - one of my most anticipated ones on the DS even with all the good games released so far. And it sounds like it turned out great - wow, I can't wait

EDIT: Should have said I dug this thread up..

mantidor · « **Reply #17 on:** November 02, 2005, 03:13:29 PM »

If it wasnt for my crippled bandwith Id share the video with you, its really nice.

Wait this thread is months old lol.

TMW · « **Reply #18 on:** November 02, 2005, 10:42:21 PM »

Yah...I've been saying it for years. Sonic Team needs to drop the 3D BS and focus on what they do best.

2D Sonic.

I'm still holding out hope for an epic, 50 level+ 2D Sonic game on a home console myself.

IceCold · « **Reply #19 on:** November 11, 2005, 07:43:25 PM »

IGN REVIEW'S UP - 9.0 with some sparkling comments - here's a sample:

Quote
The fastest, most energetic, and coolest 2D Sonic game created. The "unfair" elements of past Sonic games have been remedied with new and welcome gameplay elements. And it's incredibly challenging.

Wow, I can't believe it...sounds simply brilliant. I would give up every single DS Christmas title barring Mario Kart to get this, and that's saying a lot. Hell, I would probably give up Castlevania too - I'm that excited. Good job Sonic Team!

Anyone else wants it?

MrMojoRising · « **Reply #20 on:** November 12, 2005, 02:58:01 AM »

I'm definately getting it. I should have just enough money after Mario Kart and Tony Hawk American Sk8land to get this and put gas in my car.

It comes out the 22nd right? Because there are conflicting dates on different sites. The sega site had the 15th last time I checked, but IGN and a lot of other places are saying the 22nd, so I don't know.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #21 on:** November 12, 2005, 04:44:09 AM »

I like how I don't have enough money to get all these awesome games...Mario Kart and M&L2 are priority one, the others come later... ;_;

Shecky · « **Reply #22 on:** November 12, 2005, 05:41:29 AM »

Oh man, M&L2 is this month too? I forgot.... My to get DS queue is stacked...

H -> Mario Kart DS
Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow
Sonic Rush
Meteos
Metroid Prime Pinball
Trauma Center: Under the Knife
Kirby: Canvas Curse

Accursed lack of time...
(Ok, so maybe I've put over 90 hrs into Advance Wars DS, but that doesn't count... one makes time for that game

)

wandering · « **Reply #23 on:** November 12, 2005, 11:01:50 PM »

I'm thinking about getting this, but I'm afraid the game might be satanic.......look at the address of the IGN review: http://ds.ign.com/articles/666/666139p1.html

KDR_11k · « **Reply #24 on:** November 13, 2005, 04:41:22 AM »

Well, it's clear, SEGA realized that they had to start sacrificing souls to Satan again to make good games like they did back then.
