>>379125948
Knew it was coming, still made me laugh.

>>379123823

I already did

Been sharing this opinion on other Mania threads.

Horrific feeling this/and the new crash HD game are going to sell poorly. Crash has that fanbase of BRING CRASH BACK because gammurz like to be seen as quirky and 'oh i know videogames' same with sonic, BRING SONIC BACK TO 2D, but as soon as these things actually happen, that entire crowd don't put there money where there mouth is and just wanted to be seen as the person shouting that

of course there will still be a large portion of people who buy mania, but I really don't think it'll do as well as sega thinks

the fact these animations might go to waste makes my soul fucking scream, so much love and detail put into it, hope to fucking god this shit sells, it deserves it

inb4 forces smashes it to the ground and mania sells 8 copies, and we never hear of 2d sonic again

Classic Sonic is now a lighter shade of blue to differentiate from Modern Sonic who uses the traditional blue.
Or some stupid shit like that.

>>379128902
Sonic 3D Blast.
Also known as Sonic 3D: Flickies' Island.
I just shortened it to Sonic 3D.

>>379128902
Only Sonic is playable.
The other two are stage objects you deposite rings into to get to the special stages so they're animated and drawn like garbage.

>>379129541
by segas logic

WAIT, I'M CONFUSED.... IS THAT MODERN SONIC-- BUT HES 2D-- I'M A CONSUMER OF SONIC AND I DON'T KNOW WHATS HAPPENING, AM I PLAYING A MODERN OR CLASSIC SON-- fuck sega stop being fucking pricks, look how much better that looks then the one we've been given, true classic sonic.

sonic mania is the exact opposite of that, it'll make money. either way forces outselling it is a sad inevitability

The new Crash looks pretty terrible graphically and performance wise. Plus if anyone tried making a new Crash game it's going to turn out shit just like all the other non-Naughty Dog games so I personally don't care if it dies. Sonic Mania on the other hand looks fantastic.

Its like Sonic is a bit clumsy from moving so fast, but since he can move so fast he gets to play it off real cool. I love it, its perfect for a character like Sonic

if it does outperform forces that'll probably be the main factor. Far easier to impulse buy a $20 game than a $60 one.

They have a real affinity for Sonic Heroes' assets. They even used Heroes' invincibility music for Lost World's invincibility.

Well, Forces is obviously just your usual generic piece of shit. The problem is that they're catering to the lowest common denominator, so a lot of deviants and furries will buy the damn thing for sure. Let's hope the rest of the people sees the truth.

>>379139838
Collecting hidden circles to open up arbitrary level gateways doesn't have anything to do with getting invested in the world, and Kazooie was much better than Tooie. Anyway, Sonic Unleashed's gameplay is not conducive to collectathon elements. It doesn't help that the Werehog levels are not as fun as the Hedgehog levels, and also happen to be packed with more medal hiding spots, leaving you likely forced to play those particular stages again. I didn't mind the Werehog, but between the stages just being naturally longer and likely needing to repeat them, they make up a disproportionate amount of game time.

>kazzoie better than tooie

I stopped reading there (not really). Sonic Unleashed harkens back to old games because of the big levels and just how much there is to collect. So many medals and media to replay to find. Different opinion

>>379140248
fuck off

>>379140306

>these will never come to Steam/PS4/Switch

fucking why, sega?

>>379140447
I liked collecting the optional stuff, and like when Sonic games use red rings in the levels as an extra completionist incentive to replay the stages, just didn't like that medals were mandatory to progress. If they still unlocked levels but they were optional ones, I wouldn't have an issue.

Anyway I like Unleashed in spite of that, it's a fairly small problem, so it doesn't matter.

That's Kenichi Tokoi and this is his first work for the series. What I like most about these songs is that you can tell they're his since he's isolated. I can't exactly nail his style because I'm bad with words but it's spacey, chill, and you can tell he likes jazz. Nice use of choirs and piano.

We all know what Senoue sounds like since he's the head of most of the OSTs and lately Ohtani heads up most things.

>>379140748
I never understood why no one likes the original Spring Yard Zone theme. I love the 90s hip-hop spin to it.

The hue in Mania is inconsistent and weird. Some things that should be red have a pink tint, some thinks that should be yellow have an orange tint, some things that should be blue have a cyan tint. And some things just look normal. I don't know if this is a stylistic choice or a coincidence.

>>379127885
>attempting to conflate Sonic Mania and the Crash remakes
Please fuck off. Mania is a passion project that is an actual original work with beautiful visuals and painstaking detailed animations. Crash HD is a shoddy cashgrab that looks worse than the original games, thereby failing in the one and only change it is trying to make. It belongs on the garbage heap.

Name them. From what I've heard the only gameplay change is horrible input lag.

>>379144536
Crash 1 and 2 have Time Trial Relics like 3 now, Crash 1 has analog control support like 2 and 3 now, Crash in the first game controls like he does in 2 and 3 now barring the moves he doesn't have yet, Gem System is like 2 and 3 now, Crash 1 has 2 and 3's save system now, vehicle controls for all the vehicle levels in all 3 games are confirmed to be tweaked to control better compared to the originals, and they've hinted at including dropped level(s) and other content.

>>379144763
>people are complaining just to complain
No, what they're doing is saying that they won't mindlessly throw their money at a product that looks extremely unimpressive. You act like demanding more for your money is somehow unreasonable.

>>379144819
Crash 1 is the hardest game for many people to get into due to some of it's original design choices, and most people prefer 2 and/or 3 over it, from back then and to now. And Crash 2 gets benefits too to be fair.

They've also hinted at including new content to some extent, which remains to be seen.

>>379144162
>Why is this game receiving so much hype?
Sonic Mania is a return to form and it's being propped up by a vocal minority (ie the older fans who've been burnt) The modern Sonic games chase a different demographic meanwhile this is something that aims to recapture the originals. If it wasn't for the original games we definitely wouldn't be here today but I'm not the type to say all the new games are bad, just misfocused and silly as all.

They need to cool it with the fuckin wisps, I will say that. They were good in Colors but other games not so much.

>>379144967
Until then, do you have a better version of remastered Crash?

>not getting on multiple devices

Can something like mania ever be made in the hedgehog engine? Are 2D physics engines and 3D graphics engine just incompatible or is it super hard to make work?

What if, what if the planets align...

What if Mania completely outsells Forces?

Imagine the fucking money it cost to make Mania, compared to Forces, I guarantee you it is peanuts, and the amount they make back, Sega will be rolling in it if this sells properly.

>>379145782
They could easily do it if they really wanted to. The problem is that they don't for some reason.

>>379145835

And then Ilzuka would reclaim Mania as his and Mania 2 would be shit with wisps and modern sonic using boost

>>379145397
>I hope no one bought this
You needed to be there when the game out, people were optimistic and it kinda came back and hit them in the face. They tried and you gotta hand it to them though, they even listened to some criticism and made Ep II.

I'm surprised some fan hasn't come and just remade both games using Sonic 1 or something

>>379145782
The 2D platforming in 3D Sonic games always feels fucking terrible though. Even in the classic Sonic stages in Generations the physics felt way off.

This, but with toei sonic, and some tinkering with the level design and controls, should be the future of 3d sonic games.

I hope this game causes a new trend in gaming.
Sega, even though it's a really flawed company, was one of the only ones to see people making unofficial content with their games and not tell them to stop. Not only that, but they also fucking hired the guys because they showed potential. Now we get a sonic game which looks great, and is made by people who clearly care a whole lot.
Feels good.

>>379146218

So. Which OST is better, US or JP?

>>379148314
JP, but US is spookier so I still like it.

JP overall, US is still good though. I really like Tidal Tempest (Present & Bad Future) and Stardust Speedway Present in the US OST.

>>379148314
For CD? JP for sure. US has some interesting tracks though.

For someone who's been out of the loop, what is this game exactly?

Is it a new game in the style of the old ones or is it just old levels revamped somewhat?

If it's just old levels, and not a new game, I'm not gonna bother to be honest.

>>379123823
Of course! I hope the torrent gets released soon.

Old and new levels

There seem to be two kind of special stages in Mania, the original star glitter circle around the checkpoints that you jump into, and a giant hidden golden ring you can jump into hidden around each level.

Screenshot this post, one of those will lead to a OG sonic remaster level, and that in itself with be a special stage to get a emerald

>>379148979
It's both revamped old levels and new ones in a roughly equal ratio.

>>379148979
One level from each genesis/cd game, maybe 2. New levels, maybe 5 total. Ratio is apparently 60 old/40 new

Thats the worst part of the game, but the game itself will be good still. All the old levels are getting new level design. Check out green hill act 2 and youll see what i mean

>>379148979
It's 40% brand new levels, and 60% old zones, but they've been heavily remixed. For example, here's Green Hill Act 2.

What? If anything it's overly jerky.

Thats funny, 10 years ago is when the good sonic games started coming out. But it ended in 2011 anyway. 2008-2011, it seemed like there was hope yet. But then the double whammy of lost world and boom permanently fucked up this franchise. As good as mania will be, lost world and boom were the turning point. Its like how 9/11 shattered everyones optimism. Theres been good events since then but its never going back like how it used to be

Haven't bought a Sonic game since Sonic Adventure DX, but yes I am getting Sonic Mania. Is the Sonic cycle finally over boys?

I love Sonic Mania, but every time I see this blue little shit it Vietnam triggers me out because I remember I pai--even typing it out, my heart fluttered.

I paid full price for sonic 06

he is the definition of triggered for me

Oh shit, I only just got that the elevator buttons are meant to represent the original sonic games.

>>379150161
yes.

>>379149713
How about you do some research and stop being retarded

>>379149134
I really like how much they expanded on the old levels in regards to both the graphics and the mechanics they might as well be new levels anyway.

>>379149134
the fact that they programmed in tails to die just like in the originals has my order

>>379149134
>It's 40% brand new levels, and 60% old zones
We don't know the ratio of new vs. remixed zones though I thought. Did someone finally spill it?

Got a source? I only know he said on stream there would be more old than new with Taxman later backing it up on Twitter but we don't know by how much.

>>379151795
Pretty sure taxman said that estimate and TSSZ posted it

>>379134379
Sonic 3D blast isn't exactly obscure but either way I get what he's saying about it not being too good of a game.

That shit fucking cracked me up that thread. Also no I'm not gonna post the rest

>>379152004
Lack of Flying Battery and a Sonic 3 Zone rep means this isn't even the final list.

Only 3 known new Zones, 5 hardboiled heavies, and the two we've seen being in new Zones implies a total of 5 new Zones.

3 Sonic 1 Zones implies 3 Zones per game. That's 15, since 3 and K are being counted separately.

That means 20 Zones. That's fucking huge. Taxman wasn't fucking lying when he said it was a big game.

I'll still judge you for that short moment of worry you caused me.

No, because we all know it's going to flop compared to Forces.

you're an idiot, this can't flop in any shape way or form. it's made by indies and has Classic Sonic in it

it'll break even at the minimum

It's also a 20 dollar game compared to a 60 dollar game. It won't even have to sell much to actually make a huge profit.
