Sonic is a strange beast in that it is a franchise made by the Japanese that only really does well in NA/EU territories but that absolutely must be made in Japan for us to like it. I guarantee it. Except that Sonic 2, Sonic 3, and Sonic & Knuckles were all developed in the U.S. So...no. Sorry, I sh...

Since the majority of the franchises sales are America, I'd actually like to see Sega disband Sonic Team and source the games to more competent studios, entirely. I would agree but I am absolutely terrified of this franchise losing its Japanese flavor. Sonic is a strange beast in that it is a franc...

Just cleared Mighty Switch Force 2 (still have a lot of par times to go for)! It's basically the same as the first game, which is fine by me because I couldn't get enough of that anyway. I was initially not sure what to make of the firefighting theme of the game, it isn't much more than a superfici...

I also played Sonic Lost World, which was okay enough. Perhaps it's 'cuz I didn't play it long, but I had trouble getting the hang of the kick attack, which is kinda like a homing attack except no further homing on additional enemies is possible. It feels like it ruins the flow, but perhaps enemy v...

I think it looks incredible as well. I've never played a pikmin but am suspicious that it might put me to sleep. 101 definitely doesn't seem to have that issue. It just occurred to me, scanning this thread, that we've got quite a few nintendo lovers on this forum. I suppose that's natural given that...

I worry a little that the multiplayer focus of 3D World will limit the level design, but EAD has made three great Mario games in a row and I pretty much trust them implicitly at this point. I don't think, as some people are guessing, that this is some sort of smaller "stop gap" 3D Mario game that w...

Man sony absolutely obliterated microsoft. I wasn't going to get a ps4 for a few years but at 399 I may just bite earlier.

My biggest complaint is that the wiiu sonic controls look to be not quite there. He's still too squirrly, doesn't feel weighted down to the ground or affected by physics, and the camera has an awkward time keeping up with him. Strangely enough, in this 3ds video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=koMru...

That is a bit old sounding.

I hope its the part of mario that consistently yields amazing games. This is a franchise that surely could benefit from selling some of its soul for quality that's for sure.

I'll take 5 more werehogs if it means I never have to see Shadow holding a photorealistic hand gun again.

someone was kind enough to upload the trailer in high rez! Say goodbye to that ugly compression!

looking good and crisp. Can't wait for gameplay, that's when we'll actually know what we're dealing with here.

Don't look now but there's a sheep

that's not funny.

debut trailer.
I like that the flickies are returning but what the fuck is up with the gameplay?

amazingly there appears to be no boosting and that this is a complete departure from what we've been playing for the past 5 years.

No it isnt. The game always looked like shit.

Im getting a strong bowser/koopalings vibe from those silhouettes. They even have manacles with spikes on them for crissakes. Here's hoping they're not THAT annoying.

This proto footage from SA made me really sad. Why can't sonic games have big open levels with platforming to explore?! Why can't we have great playgrounds to roll around in and discover secrets?? When did everything become about blistering speed and linear twitch gameplay? The camera doesn't even t...

As a lover of Japanese games and as someone who never touches sports games or Call of Duty, Microsoft made it abundantly clear that their new console isn't for me. The Ps4 looks exactly like the Ps3. Seeing as how I only bought my Ps3 a year ago, I'm going to wait a while before I even think about u...

I didn't care about the red rings. Too bad for them. If they are incapable of making a level "expansive" without needing to facilitate it with an easter egg hunt, that's their issue. It's true that searching for the red rings was 100% optional but upon collecting them you unlocked the ability to tr...

It looks great but my god Ky's new pony tail is really throwing me off. I mean, he was already pretty effeminate looking but this is goddamn distracting. It's like they WANT you to actually be attracted to him now.

If it's going to be like Colors, I sure don't! One act takes 2 minutes to clear, the next a 30 second gimmick, the one after that 4-5 minutes, or any combination thereof in aribtrary order. There was no consistency, just 6 unskippable levels of random, forgettable nonsense. Pick one thing, anything...

WHAT?! Sega can we please get this on steam or psn or something that is not a phone??
