Sonic: Lost Worlds

[Spidermew]

Looks like Sonic + Mario Galaxy
Might actually be a good Sonic game....

[Trinitronity]

Wow, it really took them THAT long to come up with a game like this?
Sonic Jam should have looked like that. Or that cancelled 3D Sonic game.
Eitherway, aside from the new villians, I like this game a lot!

[HyperVoiceActing]

Interesting, I figured it was going to be another Boost game like Generations and Colors were.

Glad to know that those six characters are actually bosses as oppose to Sonic's "new bestest friends" like everyone feared.

[Silva-silva]

The game looks fine (reminds me of sonic xtreme), but those stupid new characters look stupid and unnecessary,  they don't look like they fit in the game itself.

Way to prematurely judge; would you rather have characters that has the same build as Sonic but with different quills or longer ears or whatnot?

I'm glad Sega is trying to make character designs that actually look different from Sonic

You are completely misinterpreting what I said, what I meant is that they look like they're right out of skylanders for god sake. I mean they look completely out of place, I mean vector looks completely fine, and he doesn't look like sonic at all. Heck I didn't mind the wisps in sonic colors or chip in unleashed, it's just as I said these characters just look out of place.

Also I only say unnecessary because sonic has an abundance of underdeveloped characters, you almost know nothing about Tails or Amy, or etc.

[HyperVoiceActing]

To be fair, does anyone really want to know the backstory for Tails and Amy? Or even care?

Speaking on those two: them, Knuckles, and Eggman are the only confirmed established characters

What I meant is that you know almost nothing about every main character in the sonic games other than shadow.

Well seeing knuckles is nice, I was starting to think we'd only see tails with him. I can only hope they'll be playable in some fashion.

True enough, but again no one is really asking for their backstories (except for maybe Knuckles) nor do anyone care about them. The main focus of the series was always, currently is, and should always be, Sonic vs Eggman. Even then, it should ALWAYS take a backseat to the gameplay. Which is why Colors and Generations were as well loved as they are: they focused less on story (which no one cared about in Sonic to begin with) and more on gameplay.

Plus Shadow's spin off game sucked anyway

It's confirmed that Sonic's the only playable character as far as we know. But they also mentioned unlockable content so maybe they WILL be playable

Colors was fun.

Generations was fun.

I predict SEGA is getting it right with Sonic's Major titles and that Lost Worlds will be fun.

You see that must be where you and I have a difference in opinion, you see the main reason I like sonic so much was because of the adventure games, I was drawn in by the story and the characters and the prospect of playing as and learning about them. But now sonic is just about sonic vs. robotnik and that's just fine, but sonic can be better than that and you and I both know it.

The Sonic world character cast got bloated really fast. It works for the comics, would make a great Smash-style game (Sonic Smash Universe, come on SEGA, what's taking so long for this) but honestly, outside of an RPG game, that's one of the things that really turned me out of the series game-wise. I never beat Sonic Adv 1 because F*** fishing. I never beat Sonic Adv 2 because F*** Rouge treasure hunts. and Heroes, well... yeah that.

[theFuTur3]

well I for one am I big sonic fan...I've played most of the titles from Sonic 1 through Sonic and Knuckles, Sonic 4 ep 1 and 2, Sonic adventures 1 and 2 and Heroes...I've even played Sonic 3D blast which is one of favs like top 3...didn't play Generations because I had better games and just didn't get around to it and Colors because well I don't have a DS or Wii

I agree with hyper...I never cared for the other characters in the series except for knuckles and shadow...I think tails should always be a NPC that you use to help sonic out from time to time...the rest of the cast has no point or meaning and quite frankly I was pissed to see another hedgehog in the game with silver...SMH...my only gripe is why not give metal sonic from sonic 2 more shine...I know everyone likes the one from sonic cd but c'mon who the hell really had a sega cd and played that game...?!

this game looks interesting as did Gen and Colors but I don't like the level layout from what I seen in the trailer...maybe it wont as complex as it looks and maybe they get better the further u go in the game but i'd rent it from what I've seen so far

While I will admit the fishing is stupid. really? you quit adventure two? before generations that was the best 3d sonic game.

I like Adventure 2, but that's debatable about it being the best

[Thaknight33]

That game looks like an abomination to sonic. And only on Nintendo consoles, SEGA sold out for real with this one. Us real sonic fans deserve a  TRUE sequel to sonic adventure or even episode 2 which wasn't that bad. SEGA you reached an all time low with this one. Oh by the way TAILS is hella cool he could swim and fly in the old genesis games.

[HyperVoiceActing]

So after the likes of Shadow, Sonic 06, Black Knight, and Chronicles, THIS is what you say is a all time low?

That game looks like an abomination to sonic. And only on Nintendo consoles, SEGA sold out for real with this one.

So Adventure 2 Battle, Adventure 1 DX Director's Cut, the Advanced trilogy, the Rush games, and Sonic Colors are considered selling out pieces of crap as well?

Oh by the way TAILS is hella cool he could swim and fly in the old genesis games.

I don't recall anyone here saying Tails sucked.

Not yet at least

[overlordnick]

ah, i remember a time when every sonic game didn't look like it was a half-a**ed attempt to suck money from the people who still have faith in the franchise, ah days gone by

the perfect example i can give of the half-a**ed work is (i'm pretty sure it was generations, couldv'e been colors, maybe both) the voice acting was ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE, you're sega, you can afford to get decent actors, you can track down the people you were paying to do it reasonably well, it's just insulting

and somehow (maybe it's just me) the games look even less polished every new game

[HyperVoiceActing]

Funny how the two games you choose to take a stab at are the two games fans and critics consider the best Sonic games released in the past 10 years.

And don't tell me people are STILL on the voice actor schmuck 

[Spidermew]

What I find most funny is how now Sonic is now a Nintendo exclusive character.
Back in the day we'd argue a lot about Sega VS Nintendo on the playground.
NOW, LO AND BEHOLD! FOR NINTENDO HAS WON THE OLD WAR!!

[Acey]

I really enjoyed Sonic Generations, it looks like I'll enjoy this one too.

[Cayne]

Sonic is awesome and gamers are to sucked into game reviewer garbage. As I recall Sonic & Knuckles didn't have voice actors and its one of the greats. I even liked Sonic the Hedgehog that introduced Silver.

.........really its just one game.   i think your a lil premature there good sir.

[HyperVoiceActing]

I think Nintendo won that war when Sega went third party. Since a lot of Sonic's better games since then WERE on Nintendo consoles

So I don't think he's being premature. A touch too excited perhaps but not premature

[Trinitronity]

What? B-but Sonic 2006 is one of the wirst games, and it's even rushed, full of bugs and unused material, that went unused because, yep, you guessed it, it was even more rushed then Super Double Dragon.
