The Adventure games deserve more respect, they're fun, fast, cool and quality games and you classic faggots will NOT SHIT ON THEM UNDERSTAND??!

Bad Future

There are THREE Sonics.

Sonic 4 is canon, Generations is canon, and CD is not a spin-off. Get over it.

If anything the manual just says that Knuckles is naive and slow, but they don't say it's because of his seclusion.

PS4. In the chance that there is lock-on, don't you want to have both games on the same system? PS4 Forces will be better than Switch one.

>>387081178
Unlocks are only usable in no save mode only.

>>387081178
Mean Bean Machine mode for extras. Thats it so far.

>>387081178
&Knuckles mode?

>>387080371
>trying to derail the thread again with more shitflinging over your retarded picture

>>387081341
It lets Knuckles follow Sonic instead of Tails

>>387081265
What? Elaborate.

>>387081341
Replaces Tails with Knuckles

>>387081207
It takes everything good and bad from Sonic 1 and multiplies it by 100. I stopped playing at Misty Maze Zone because it was more boring and tedious than Labyrinth was despite looking much more interesting.

So are these unlocks only from Gold medals? Because from the last of what I saw that Mark had, he only had 5 golds and like 20 silvers, but only unlocked maybe 5 things?

>>387081409
What's there to elaborate? Different gameplay mechanics only work in no-save mode

Face it, story doesn't matter in these games and not liking a game because it "isn't canon" as opposed to it being an actual shit game is retarded.
>>387081503
I think &Knuckles mode works regardless though, it just replaces Tails with Knuckles so I don't see how it could be more advantageous.

Can nips go super or was that something else claimed by Iizuka?

No, I think he has yet to unlock anything with golds.

>>387080679
I'm not sure if buying a 4-5 hour game will justify buying a Switch anon. The only way to play a Nintendo console is to play it how it was intended to be played, and that is to play Nintendo games. Just buy it for the PS4.

>>387081613

He's a reviewer right? It's good to know there'll be at least one review out there by someone who can actually play Sonic games.

>>387080371
Nobody can debunk this since is the classic sonic in Forces is from another dimension. So how can he be Sonic's younger self, whom we know experienced the events of 1-3&K?
Pint-Sized Sonic has to be from a timeline which is similar, yet different to Classic.

>>387081613
I wonder if he could shed milliseconds off his time by spindashing closer to the starting marker

Exactly, the Sonic marketed as "Classic Sonic" is one we've never seen until now, until Mania that is; a completely different Sonic.

>>387080554
>when it was supposed to have physics like wind hill beta shows
What? Windy Hill beta showed the same "physics" that made it into the final game

Sonic doesn't really work in 3D but regardless I'm liking the more classic artstyle look in that photo

>>387082208
>>387082321
>>387082434
No one cares

What if I said that Mania Sonic is just Classic Sonic that never interacted with the Time Eater?

>>387082358
You keep asking, has anyone said they think it'll be good?

>>387082449
you misunderstood me, but my post was worded poorly anyway. the beta wind hill was meant for a more physic-based gameplay, but we only got the level nowdays. It was even confirmed in an interview that originally the physics were similar to the classic but they wouldn't work well due to hardware limitation. no, I'm not searching retro for it

Nah, Sonic Team just haven't done a good job of making him work in 3D.

So... Everything is already unlocked?

Same boss for both sonic, tails and knuckles ?

Or we only know the sonic path?

>>387082636
Time Eater incident never happened in pint-sized Sonic's timeline that we know of.

So yeah, that would be another way of saying it. Pint-Sized Sonic's quantum timeline is simply one in which the time eater incident never happened, and has mania in it, which happens during Sonic cd in the prime timeline.

>>387083061
the fact that most of the original team left after the adventure adventure, and other types of games are easier to do, and it has been shown that modern sonic fans would eat shit if it had sonic name on it

>>387083081
It's Pint-Sized Sonic. He is not Sonic from the past aka classic Sonic, but a different Sonic.

>>387083081
>>387083167
I bet you two were surprised about Mania and Forces connection

>>387083275
By the same logic of referring to Classic Sonic as "Pint-Sized Sonic" we should be calling Eggman"Baldy McNosehair"
It makes sense for Eggman to call Classic Sonic that because he sees him as a pest. It's an insult basically.

>>387083495
You are ignoring the "from another dimension" part. It's not a mere insult.

>>387083081
No, Classic Sonic doesn't exist. In Sonic Forces you play as Little Blue Savior Sonic, Pint-Sized Sonic and the custom Avatar to fight against Infinite and Baldy McNosehair.

>>387083275
Goddamn, I thought it was just for fun. Didn't expect people to take it so seriously. then again this is sonic so I shouldn't be surprised

People are really getting hung up on the name, just call him Mania Sonic instead of Pint-sized.

Who here will actually try to go for the perfect run trophy/achievement of not taking a single hit during the entire game?

Yes it is, considering who calls him that.
Additionally, the promotional materials for the game still refer to him as Classic Sonic, as seen in the title of this video:
https://youtu.be/q1wYD5b4VUw
And the description of this:
https://youtu.be/dprxYd_16Ck
>In a world conquered by Dr. Eggman, it’s up to Modern Sonic, Classic Sonic, and your own Custom Character to fight back.

>>387083823
No, too many people assume Sonic in Mania is just Sonic, that would add to the confusion.

"From another dimension" isn't an insult.

>>387083886
"Classic Sonic" only refers to his appearance and it would be confusing to come up with a new name when classic sonic was used recently in generations.

>>387083886
And those advertisements are completely misleading, as proven by game footage from both games.

Actually here's what I think is going on because there's no point in making mania sonic a duplicate classic sonic from another dimension.

It's far more likely that robotnik is the one from a new dimension because that would actually have a point.

You're all so wrong it hurts, clearly the Classic Sonic isn't the real Sonic, it's the medic from the helicopter scene where Amy jumps out and the bomb in her uterus explodes, Classic Sonic is actually in a coma while his body double does the work in Mania and Forces for him.

>>387084075
Wonder if this guy will get unreasonably pissed the game leads into Forces?

>>387083995
I'm not talking about the "other dimension" part, I'm talking about you referring to him as Pint-Sized Sonic.
It's not a stretch, considering Infinite's apparently warps space and time

Infinite is really Silver the Hedgehog using Mighty the Armadillo's arm as a prosthetic, he underwent extensive hypno-therapy to make himself believe he's a being called Infinite.

I've been uploading playthroughs of some of the games with commentary to prepare for Mania (to bad I'm on PC and got fucked over, no chance of getting seen 2 weeks later).

And right now, they are using this dimensional shit to MERGE, not split, the classic and modern games they've made.

>>387085457
>where mania sonic is not the 1/2/3&k sonic
He is, after those games Sonic went in two directions, mania sonic is not the one who went on to the 3D games.

>>387085369
Easy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pm5iLGWqg4M

>>387085457
Not really since that would mean Mania is non-canon therefore the real Classic Sonic is not connected to Modern Sonic/Forces

>>387085564
No the actuality of the plot is that Mania and Forces both directly lead to Triple Trouble, because Zanzibar Land Zone is referenced in the ending cutscene and it's confirmed that Classic Sonic establishes Emerald Dogs while Modern Sonic establishes Zanzibar Land Zone and Outer Green Hill.

>>387085609
>He is, after those games Sonic went in two directions, mania sonic is not the one who went on to the 3D games.

That's not what this the tripfag in this thread is arguing. He's saying mania sonic is a brand new sonic.

Mania Sonic goes to Forces

>>387085807
Its not hard. Generations split the timeline into two threads leading to mania or Sonic4 with all the modern games. Mania then sends sonic to the timeline with Sonic 4 and all the modern games following it!

>>387085727
How would just continuing to make classic games that take place after mania with no forces tie-in make anything non-canon? What are you talking about?

>posting all this dumb shit when there is an obvious canon timeline that doesn't require any outlandish nonsense
Forces having Classic Sonic be from another dimension is a retcon, plain and simple, to accommodate Mania and what they were planning with the story.
The Classic timeline goes 1 > CD > 2 > 3&K > (Generations?) > Mania > Forces
The Modern timeline goes (events parallel to the classic games, but with Modern Sonic) > 4 > (everything else) > Forces

>>387086598
>>387086803
I'm sure it's just harmless, fun banter; something to wait until Mania and Forces' release.

>>387086941
Which is a moot point because Generations' plot is retconned by Forces.

>nobody points out Eggman found the gem almost literally on the beach of Angel Island
>opening scene is almost exactly like Sonic 3 minus Knuckles punching you

Spoilers: Mania is an alternate Sonic 3 & knuckles

I mean, when would Angel Island have fallen out the sky again in the Classic-Adventure timeline?

>>387087049
It's literally stated that this takes place after S3K
also Knuckles already knows Sonic when the game begins

>>387086941
Clearly, Generations takes place in an alternate timeline where Eggman found the Time Eater after the events of Sonic Colors.

>>387080450
As much as people want to rail on Mark for doing what basically anyone with streaming shit would do with an early game, it does fall back to Nintendo for having live codes in a retail unit, and for the retailer to break street date.

Though, it's funny that SEGA's been slapping people on YouTube who are re-hosting. Ironically, it feels like it helped them get more sales, the leak did.

The PC version though is bullshit. I wonder if that's Sega Europe's doing since they're usually the PC devs.

Why stop at 20? obviously you pirating multiple copies = multiple profit losses for sega. M<ight as well download it 1000 times

I think CD is on par with S&K for different reasons. Sonic 3 is the worse half of 3&K imo and I almost feel that ranking them as 3&K is unfair for a lot of reasons (such as length), but to some extent S&K needs 3 to be as good as it is in the first place. That said, CD has great visuals and amazing music that sets it in stone as one of my favorites. Its level design is not bad, only different and more physics-oriented, and I can't dock points from the game for that until either Wacky Workbench or Metallic Madness come into play. Those zones are a black spot on a game that is great everywhere else. S&K on the other hand has some of the best zones contained in a single game and it is pure speedy platforming goodness with a charming aesthetic of its own and some great tracks like Lava Reef even though clearly CD pulls ahead in that department because it's not as technically limited.

>>387091482

>>387091639
Because it's a good game you piece of fucking shit.

The time travel mechanic was revolutionary and ballsy at the time, the vocal songs/animated sequences were new at the time.

Of course it's a flawed game because it was made shortly after Sonic 1 with a different team and they still hadn't figured out Sonic fully yet.

The concept is good though not as well executed as it could have been due to it being developed by the B team.

For example a simple thing that would massively improve Sonic CD would be having the ability to turn a signpost you collect(past/future) on and off so that you don't have to awkwardly slow down to not accidentally time travel when you don't want to for example which imo is one of the biggest issues with the game.

SEGA USA had just built a fancy new recording studio and thought that the JP soundtrack wasn't "x-treeeme" enough or something similarly stupid. So, they replaced the bouncy, catchy JP soundtrack with the lifeless, meandering US soundtrack.

Sonic Mania is between 1 and 2?

It was developed the same time as Sonic 2. That was part of the reason Sonic 2's time-travel gimmick got scrapped (and possibly why Toot Toot Sonic Warrior is a remix of Sonic 2 8-bit's Green Hills Zone)

Basically this minus the part about the US soundtrack being lifeless and meandering. I prefer it since it feels like it fits the more 'surreal' atmosphere than the more energetic JP soundtrack, not to say either are bad.

Sonic is NOT canon.

Sonic was NEVER good

You know, people say this, but never explain why the "fast animal mascot with attitude" genre never took off.
Like, how would the people who say that feel about stuff like Awesome Possum?

Question Mania Niggas, im a uk boy so if i got a australian eshop on my switch, could i get mania on the 14th depending if there is a midnight unlock for the game?
