Sonic the Hedgehog Thread

I don't know if anyone knew about this, but a few weeks ago, we got some new footage of Sonic Mania showcasing a new zone that's inspired by a unused zone from the 2011 Sonic CD port (It was called Desert Dazzle) & we also got gameplay of Tails & Knuckles for the first time.



Also since i haven't seen it on here, here's Green Hill & Studiopolis in action from back when it got revealed in July


Seriously this game looks fun as hell, & it's the first time as fan of the blue blur where i know it's going to be good.

Also the music for Studiopolis & Mirage Saloon is GODLY!!!! (As per usual for Sonic of course.)


Seriously this is amazing stuff right here. the music is composed by Tee Lopes who is famed in
the sonic fandom for his godly remixes of various sonic music. he has a youtube channel you can check out. he does a lot of video game remixes besides sonic and also has some original music as well (He remixed the Super Mario Land 2 overworld which is also really good.)

Yeah i saw the K&T in the mirage saloon part. I was hoping for knuckles gameplay since he was favourite in S3&K. If only they had Amy, might not happen but damn if she wasn't fun to play as in Sonic Advance trilogy.
 
Yeah no playable Amy is a massive disapointment in my opinion. But they probably just wanted to play safe with this one. Honestly, i'm just happy we're getting other playable characters again. (This is the first sonic game since SATBK to even have playable characters besides Sonic himself.) but i still hope she'll be playable when Taxman & Stealth make a new 2D Sonic Game after Mania (She could still appear in mania as a non playable character though.)

Yay I guess though I wasn't planning on getting it on the Switch.

Yeah considering that I already ordered it for the PS4, i'm not interested in this either. But hey, it's good for those that have been wanting a Switch release. (Which I know a lot of people were.)

Made it to like 60 something before I had to turn it off cuz I saw too many spoilers : p

I really want this game though, a whole bunch. Am excited to one day finally get to play it. I want to get it on Dreamcast though, might one day get 2 for Gamecube but want this one on Dreamcast.

New information regarding Sonic Mania got shown off today.
First off Green Hill act 2.

First of all, wow! it looks absolutely stunning and I really like how they took some inspiration from the lost beta version of Green Hill for some of the background. (The mountains and the sky look very similar to it.)

And according to Taxman himself, this is the tamest of the reimagined levels, so if this is the tamest, then the other reimagined levels are going to be very very interesting.
And also.

This is the midboss of Studiopolis, Heavy Gunner.

And here's a screenshot of the boss in game along with it. (Also Eggrobo is confirmed to return.)
And holy shit it looks intense as hell, seriously there's multiple eggrobos all around and it looks like it's going to be a chase sequence going by the level design, So this boss is gonna be quite the interesting one indeed.

Also I forgot to mention this when it was first announced but on March 16th at SXSW of this year, Sega is gonna be holding a Sonic panel again like they did last year, and according to Sega themselves, we're gonna find out some major news regarding both Mania and Project Sonic 17.
So that's definitely something to look forward to in the next week.

And yes Act 2 remixes are confirmed to be in Sonic Mania, and Green Hill does indeed have a very different act 2 remix according to polygon, but for some reason Sega decided to keep it under wraps here. Guess they want to keep that a surprise.

My hype levels are at fucking maximum right now.

HOLY SHIT WE HAVE JUST GOTTEN A SONIC BLOWOUT!!!!!!!
Let's get the stuff out of the way.


Sonic Mania
Project Sonic 2017 or as I should call it now.

So that's quite the blowout if I say so myself.
I'm still a bit skepical about Sonic Forces, but now I'm a bit more optimistic then I was beforehand.
And of course Mania is still looking as good as ever. (Too bad we have to wait till Summer for it, but hey I rather have it be delayed and get something good from it, then I would a Sonic game released in the next month and get something rushed and unpolished from it.)

Edit: Sega has uploaded a higher quality version of the gameplay video, so I replaced the old gameplay footage with the official one.

Sonic Forces? Really odd name. Reminds me of Sonic Heroes. So far gameplay looks inoffensive. Nothing new or special yet.

I Agree with that. A Finnish sonic game wold be better than a broken one. *COUGH*COUGH*SONIC06*COUGH*COUGH*
Wow what a cold.
 
Sega has uploaded a higher quality version of the gameplay footage from yesterday.

Now you can experience the gameplay without the crowds and the potato quality.
