Weather or not Sonic'06/unleashed/whatever is really the "spiritual SA3" or is moot.

The point people are trying to make when bringing it up is that we've had games with Adventure elements since SA2 and they've been shit. It's a counter-point to all the people clamoring for an SA3 as if it will automatically make the franchise good again.

Fuck off with this shit logic. Sequel /= direct sequel. A game "can" in story take place after previous games before it, but a "sequel" by name is a direct continuation by both game styles and story.
But it doesn't matter, SEGA can call any new Sonic game SA3 because the fucking game doesn't exist by name officially. So fuck off with that shit.

Technically Sonic Heroes, Unleashed.
And at least Unleashed in Japan is named "Sonic World Adventure" while both Sonic Heroes (which had a more direct story continuation from SA2 than 06 did) and 06 doesn't have Adventure anywhere in their names.
Face it, this meme needs to fucking die. It's Sonic Adventure 3 WHEN SEGA says it's Sonic Adventure 3 no matter what you faggots say, fucking autists.

Literally who gives a fuck. 06, Heroes and Unleashed all have elements that could qualify them to be true successors to SA, but then Sonic and Knuckles ("hurr it's one game"), Knuckles Chaotix, Sonic 3D Blast, Sonic Advance and Sonic Adventure all have features that could qualify them to be the "true" Sonic 4. Didn't stop SEGA from making a game called Sonic 4 anyway.

Nobody should care what was "technically" Sonic Adventure 3, because SEGA will make Sonic Adventure 3 regardless - it's too good of a marketing opportunity to turn up. The people who keep saying this shit should feel ashamed for being retards, and the people who feel the need to argue against it in every thread should be equally ashamed for thinking it makes a difference whether or not it was really SA3.

We'll be getting """""SA3""""" for the anniversary. 06's status is irrelevant

It really isn't. That's something Sega said when the game was being hyped before release, but there is absolutely no way you can call it a reboot. It references previous games, has tons of characters that return instead of be reintroduced, and build on previous game mechanics. There is nothing about it that's remotely a reboot.
>>
>>339158102

>>
>>339160901

The morality could have been interesting if the missions weren't completely half-assed. Most of the levels didn't even feel like they were designed around missions, like they made a regular ol' 3D Sonic level and then just slapped generic "kill all aliens" and "kill all GUN" missions on it. Then the levels that felt like they were actually built around missions, like Central City, are some of the worst levels in the entire franchise.
>>
>>339161092
Not him, but Sonic Heroes had a different control scheme with you controlling teams of three at once. 06 on the other hand is more like Adventure, splitting up characters with their own much more distinct playstyles, Sonic for speed, Knuckles for gliding/wall climbing, Tails for flying, so on.

I mean, the movement was a bit splashy at times but that's because it used the same engine as Heroes IIRC. They are a number of improvements over Heroes, however.

Why did they take some 16-odd years to make Sonic 4?

SEGA work in mysterious and retarded ways. But I have no doubt that the Adventure nostalgia has grown strong enough for the jews up top to take notice and make a pale imitation. It may not be for the 25th necessarily, but it's only a matter of time before it does happen
>>
>>339161642
The title itself and continuation of the "Station Square arc" and Chao Garden.
If SEGA has never said that Sonic 06 is a sequel to any Adventure game, then it's not a fucking sequel. I don't care about your headcanon.
>>
>>339161618
Fuck you faggot Sky Troops was great

>>339161546
Sega said it in some marketing before the game released. Sega says a bunch of dumb shit in marketing that never comes to be, and they didn't keep saying it was a reboot as the game actually came out.

They didn't take 16 years
They took 1 year
They just didn't bother to use that title until they thought it would bait the right amount of nostalgia

That doesn't discount any of my other points though. Neither does that point, he said "multiple gameplay styles" and Sonic Heroes did the same, just at the same time in one main story. Again, it doesn't matter. Basically just what >>339161093 said.

If it's all at the same time, it's not multiple gameplay styles. It's just one more complicated gameplay style.

Can't we just get a good, fast, robust physics based platform game. I honestly do not give a fuck if it's 2D or 3D (but choose one and stick with it please), nor do I care if 2006 is Adventure 3 or not because why the fuck are we not still pretending that game never happened. Leave it buried.

Taxman Engine spiritual successor to Sonic 3 & Knuckles would be the dream but I don't see that being very likely
>>
>>339161589
That the gameplay is improved over Heroes isn't saying much, Heroes controlled like shit.
Some of the stages were fine but often got way too convoluted just to accomodate the mission types.

The music is great though, for sure, though at some point that's not really an argument since it's true for the majority of Sonic games.

We won't get Adventure 3 for quite some time because Sega still think that having side characters other than Tails is a bad thing. You can't have a Sonic Adventure game without side characters to have alternate gameplay styles. Plus, Sonic isn't serious enough as a character anymore to be in anything above Colors level plot lines. He's too snarky and sarcastic these days.

It just wouldn't work and you know it, anons. Search your hearts for you know I speak the truth.

I don't necessarily know if it would be worth having a 2D Sonic game be longer than S3K - I personally think it was exactly the right length for a single playthrough. That isn't to say there couldn't be more levels though - I'd be very interested in an otherwise traditional Sonic game that has branching level choices based on whether you finish the level on a low, medium or high path. That way, the game would be similar in length to S3K but would have waaaaaaay more replayability.

Pic kinda related.
>>
>>339162381
>Sega still think that having side characters other than Tails is a bad thing.

OR they finally realised that developing a game with 6 or even 3 unique gameplay modes that have any semblance of depth is not something that they have the team nor budget for, so they decide to live within their means
>>
>>339162064
I'm fully convinced that Shadow has the best Sonic OST. The only other game that comes close is Black Knight because they let the audio director do what he wanted

I don't want SA3, I'd rather have an Unleashed 2 but without the werehog.
Unleashed had some great levels but the werehog shit ruined it.

Yeah, it is somewhat, but some people said it came out after 2 I heard so that's what I used Sonic 3 as the comparison.

Alternate gameplay styles is a bad thing. Sega can barely develop one game at a time, why would you want them trying to stuff three games into the same dev cycle?

Considering they can barely get Sonic's gameplay down, they're right.

Who cares anymore? There's tons of games in series that play like other ones in other sub series, but they're not connected. Sonic '06 can be as close to the Adventure games as it wants, until Sega officially states that's it's SA3, it's not.

Sonic Team shows they are very immature by purpousely not acknowledging their past mistakes and pretending 06 wasn't actually Adventure 3, like everyone in the world that isn't autist already knows.

I'm not buying too much into it, but it's worth noting that 3D games were still having their rules set when Adventure came out. While it was after Mario 64, it was very common for titles in a 3D world to be a lot jankier than they are now and perhaps more than most people remember them. I know that I was surprised when I played the Adventure games recently.

If Shadow The Hedgehog had good gameplay, the levels more varied in assets, and the branches were determined by route taken instead of bullshit morality choices, yes

Sonic Team will probably never try branching again because Shadow sucked, but that was actually a solid idea in itself, it was just poorly executed. A similar branching paths mechanic in a game with classic 2D gameplay or 3D boost formula would be the tits

I think the branching in Shadow was pretty cool but most of them boiled down to fucking collectathons in Sonic style built for speed levels and were incredibly tedious to backtrack through once you'd realised you hadn't slaughtered every soldier in Westopolis for example.

They really should have just made it more skill based like you have to make it to the end within a time limit. Some of them did do that but not a lot of them.
