Comics end, Sega wouldn't bother licensing the franchise out to anyone else. Espically after all the trouble Ken caused. If any more comics are made expect them to be made in house at sega with the game writers and completely separate from the Archie canon.

The last good 3D sonic was Adventure 2
The last good 2D sonic was Advance 2

Why do they insist on making 3D sonic games play themselves? Why is it scripted to move me out of danger, and to guide me on a set path? It's like I'm playing an iphone game where the only input required is the jump button.

Not really. You can easily get fucked if you're not paying attention, especially in stages like Eggmanland or Jungle Joyride. Hell, even Generations did this with Planet Wisp act 2, though that was less reflexes and more actual platforming

When was the last time you played the Adventure games? I own the DC version of 1, and the gamecube version of 2, and played them both within the past year. You have full 360 degree movement and can stop running whenever you feel life it.

I want to say "50%' of the game, but the day time levels were so fucking short, I'm going to instead say that 80% of the game was fucking shit.

Unleashed was the first sonic game that genuienly pissed me off due to how shit it was. Atleast Sonic 06 had the excuse of being unfinished. And anyone who bought Sonic Boom after they first released the Character silhouettes is a total derp. It was clear from day Zero that Sonic Boom would be trash

I just realized that since Fire and Ice is launching around the time Boom season 2 may begin, it probably IS the anniversary game, or at least tying into the real anniverary present, which is Boom season 2

The social media intern guy they hired not too long ago says they know which characters are the most popular and gave a short ranking of the top 5 or 6 on Sonic Stadium, but I can't find the post at the moment.

Either way, I remember it being pretty much who you'd expect to be really popular in Sonic.

Have there been any points in a Sonic game where you were genuinely impressed by the way a level had been designed? Why? What was your least favorite stage in terms of design?

More gameplay than anything else.

Ah, that's pretty easy. In terms of a Sonic level, there are 3 elements that make a level good. Speed, platforming, and exploration. Exploration you can add by putting in multiple pathways like in the classic games and Sonic Generations. Speed you can add though loops and hills, or if you want to taking about 3D games boost and/or spindash (or boost pads, but I suggest you use them sparingly). Platforming is tricky, generally in order to incorporate platforming you want to slow down the player first. However, you never want to completely stop the player, or else you'll create another Marble Zone. In order to slow down the player, you can incorporate various tricks such as: launching the player into the air, teleporting the player, having the player drop down, etc. Just make sure he is always in motion in some form, even if the player is not really moving him. Those are all the elements of a good Sonic level in my opinion. If you just execute those elements correctly (and have a good camera, good controls, and good music) then you have a good stage on your hands.

Ah yes, Sonic games back in the day were always just silly and not at all concerned with cutscenes. It's just silly animals having silly fun.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFxCHpOpEgo

Come on now. Sonic is and will always be about being "cool". What cool is changes over time, but constant detachment and treating everything that's going on as silly is not cool. I'm not asking for a Shakespearian story here, but at least have some steaks and tension here and there. Even Sonic 3 and Sonic CD had tension in them, with the Death Egg and Bad Futures being a horrifying threat that was constantly in your face. And none of this is present in the current games, so I'm not sure why you're saying that I am the reason Sonic is shit.
