No. It's not even going to be the best 2D platformer this gen (game is mostly 2D with pseudo-3D areas). DKCR already saw to that.

No, because Arkham City.

Sonic Generations will indeed be totally awesome and has a good chance of being the best Sonic game ever at least.

Just like the previous game and the previous game and the previous game before that. Sonic fans have amazingly selective memories, otherwise they would not be buying these games. They spend a few months hyping Sonic Team's next turd and then a few more rationalizing why it wasn't a complete waste. Well, if you ignore the Tails/Robotnik levels... Well, if you ignore the werehog levels... Well, if you ignore the camera issues... Again and again and again for all eternity.

Is Sonic Adventure 2 still the crown jewel of 3D Sonic? Because that game was garbage. I suppose it's easy to think each new game is at least a marginal success when the standards for franchise are so low.

It's like Sonic Colors doesn't even exist.

Or you've never played it and are just ignorant?

Colors was the last Sonic game, and it was excellent all the way through.

I'm not looking forward to Sonic Generations at all (from what I saw there was lots of Sonic Unleashed behind-the-back gameplay which I've already stated I hate)

but the previous game was Sonic Colors, which was awesome, and I assume you never played it

Thing is Sonic Adventure 2 and Sonic Unleashed were both good.

The Werehog sections were not terrible, they were passable. They were good enough for you to want to get through them to get to the best parts (the day sections). Same goes for the Tails/Robotnik sections in SA2 as well.

Ok, Sonic haters, for real just quit. Yes Sonic has some mediocre games, and he has some absolute **** games, but if you honestly think there hasn't been a good Sonic game in the past 10 years, you haven't played.

Sonic Advance
Sonic Advance 3
Sonic Rush
Sonic Colors
Sonic Unleashed (admittedly werehog is terrible, but the not-werehog levels are great)

If you want to continue hating sonic, you can lol and boot up your copies of Shadow the Hedgehog and Sonic 2K6, but you're seriously just looking ignorant.

It's a mark of how good the old games were that Sonic is considered this awful, dead franchise now.

There have only ever been three bad Sonic games: 06, Shadow and, for my money, Heroes.

Adventures, the Wii games, the Advance games: all range from good to great.

To be fair, most people say the Sonic sucking started from Shadow the Hedgehog, so you can throw out Advance, Advance 3, and Rush. And Unleashed isn't exactly "great". "good" maybe.

This is what they're talking about:

Shadow the Hedgehog
Sonic 2006
Sonic and the Secret Rings
Sonic and the Black Knight

so depending on how you view Unleashed it's either 4 vs 2 or 5 vs 1 since Shadow.

and please note, I'm not saying they're right for saying the Sonic Cycle is true, just saying that claiming that Sonic hasn't been more bad than good isn't the right way to attack that argument. >_>

Secret Rings was good. Not a classic, but definitely fine. I'll give you the other three though!

Correct, because unlike you people who just keep coming back for more regardless of how many times you've been burned, I learned my lesson over a decade ago after SA and SA2. I have zero reason to believe Colors is any different because or that Generations will be any different. Just at look these posts. People are saying Sonic Adventure 2 is a good game. It is not. It is a bad game. It is a very bad game. And not by comparison to the original series, either. It's just a bad game, full stop. And that's the standard we're going by here. When that's your idea of "good game," Colors/Generations would be have to some sort of revolutionary genre-defining game that puts the rest of the series to shame in order to even register as something worth playing to people who aren't furries.

It's all just so sad, really. I feel bad for you people, because you are incapable of feeling bad for yourselves.
