>"We do recognize that the Sonic Boom games that came out two years ago... there were elements that I was not really happy with, and we do regret that it got out there. But they are out there, we did listen to a lot of people's requests, demands and complaints, we really took it to heart, and with Sonic Boom: Fire & Ice, we have really tried to make sure the game we release are of the right quality. We want to release good titles to all the players, and that is the challenge for us moving forward - making sure are games are great".

>we have really tried to make sure the game we release are of the right quality
Bullshit
>>342614137
Really? Which elements? Y'mean how the whole game was a shitty buggy mess or more specifically it was a shitty buggy mess because you forced a next-gen cryengine game into a fucking WiiU?
The previous 3DS game wasn't functionally broken like Rise of Lyric, it was just a casual, very slow metroidvania with mobile phone runner sequences. And so far Fire and Ice looks like the same thing. Good on them for ironing out any more bugs, but that wasn't the problem last time.
First Sonic is the only decent Sonic game.
They keep repeating this every couple of years. I'll believe it when I see it.
>>342615263
Fuck off.
>>342614137
I bet the game will be complete shit as usual
>>342615263
Sonic 2 improved upon it in every way. Fuck off
>>342615125
>One of the things about Sonic Boom: Fire and Ice is that we held the title for a year
More like
>"We didn't release the game for a year because we wanted to distance ourselves from Rise of Lyric's abysmal reception."
>>342615263
I know you're baiting but there are some people who genuinely prefer Sonic 1 over the other Classic games because they think the spindash ruined the formula. Like, I can see why you might make the argument that the boost mechanic undermines the foundation of Sonic's gameplay, but the spindash was never required to play the game at any point unless you were complete shit at Sonic.
It's some next level autism that even other autists make fun of for how autistic it is.
>>342615263
Fuck off m8
>>342616118
If by "improve" you mean "dumb down the platforming entirely", I agree.
I swear people give Sonic 1 a hard time just because you have to push a block one time in Marble Zone.
>>342615263
It was good, but not as good as the later 2D installments.
>>342614137
Deadlines and Japanese corporate culture can fuck right off.
Sega keeps falling for it.
>there are more Sonic Boom games than Sonic Adventure games
>>342616440
>>342616440
If you count Unleashed and 2006, no there's not.
>>342615263
1 is meh
2 is better
3 is good
3 and knuckles is great
Fite me.
I'm surprised some crazy disgruntled Sonic fan hasn't tried to take out Iizuka yet, considering he ran Sonic into the dirt over a period of two decades and brought NiGHTs back just to kill it with a terrible sequel.

Sonic 2 let me go fast, I love Sonic 2
>>342616594
I'd like to see the gamegear games remade in the Retro Engine.
>>342616440
In Japan, Sonic Unleashed is called "Sonic World Adventure"
>>342614137
>We're personally responsible for throwing Big Red Button under the bus, but it's still their fault for making a shitty game.
>>342616440
>forgetting Sonic Heroes
>>342618338
That's a completely different beast
>>342614137
>We want to release good titles to all the players
Cheeky cunt
Can we all agree 3 and knuckles is the best sonic game?
>>342618738
Yeah.
>>342616594
What an amazing game. Shame it got so little attention
>>342614137
>making sure are games are great".
sonic is the most overrated shit
u guys need to let go of your childhood memories of adventure battle
anyways donkey kong is a better platformer lol
I'm not gonna defend the Sonic Boom game on the Wii U. It's worthless, irredeemable trash.
But it's worthless, irredeemable trash made by a bunch of people that weren't good enough for Naughty Dog and it was a licensed game based off a cartoon that just happens to be based on the Sonic the Hedgehog series.
While it's entirely fair to give Sega shit for not policing someone working on their IP harder and letting something as bad as that get out, I don't think that game is a fair representation of the Sonic franchise. I see a lot of people pointing to it, saying that it shows Sega can't make good games anymore and we're right back to the 06 days, but it really isn't. When I see that game I see something closer to Superman 64 than to Sonic 06.
How is Sonic Boom for the 3DS?
>>342614137
>making sure are games
>not "our"
Holy fuck who wrote this?
I had an English teacher who made this type of grammar mistake when typing up a quiz for us and almost flipped out on her.
>>342618738
Yes, easily
Iizuka is the George Lucas of Sonic Team
>>342621162
Not until they port S3&K and they turn the Knuckles campaign into emerald shard hunting.
>>342615263
here's another (You) for you
>>342615263
>Sonic game with only 2 good levels is decent
Marble Zone will always be "that" level for me
>>342622479
Marble Zone is alright, does drag on a bit though
Labyrinth can eat a dick and Scrap Brain (at least the bit that's just Labyrinth reskinned) can eat a dick as well though.
Who /controversialopinions/ here?
>>342622695
You literally posted all the worst levels
Except wacky workbench is one of the best
Another bad zone is marble garden from 3
>>342622695
Metropolis and Act 1 of Sandopolis I think it's called were good levels. Act 2 of the later was just boring and you could easily get lost thanks to those sand slides.
>>342622695
I remember liking Marble Zone.
>>342622695
Wacky Workbench is garbage, I love Sonic CD but that's the stage that always makes me not want to go back to replay it sometimes.
Don't really like Sandopolis much either but I don't really have any ill will towards it.
Said my opinions on the sonic 1 stages in the post above yours.Never actually played Sonic 2 from start to finish. Not sure why. As a kid I was too retarded to get past that one staircase in Chemical Plant and as an adult I can't be assed since I'd rather play the other games, 2 just doesn't interest me as much despite it being the one that carries the most nostalgia. Last time I tried I died at Oil Ocean and said "nah I don't feel like playing anymore."

>>342617928
>Unleashed
Oh, so is Super Mario 3D World the third Super Mario World game?
>>342615263
Sonic 2 and 3 are great. Shadow is a good game too, fuck your all.
>>342623961
Shadows game fucking sucks
>>342617330
Fastfags are cancer.
>>342618738
yup
It's practically perfect in my eyes.
>>342624160
Fastfags are the cancer that Adventure brought into the series.
>>342618738
We agree to that pretty much everyday.
>>342623415
Second, SMW2 is actually a completely different series in Japan
>>342624081
It really doesn't. It's a solid, stable game with good control, decent graphics, not too much cringe, and plenty of replay value. I really don't see why people hate it so much. At the very least it's the best of the 'bad' games.
>>342620203
Decent, there's fun to be had, the problem it's the forced backtracking, you MUST have completed almos all the challenges in order to finis the story and to progress in the game. So it doesn't allow you to explore at your own pace. Otherwise it's not nearly as bad as ryse of lyric.
Try the demo, it will give you a pretty accurate depiction of what the gameplay is.
