I'm kind of underwhelmed.
I'm happy we're finally getting Sonic 4, but it seriously doesn't look like a sequel to Sonic The Hedgehog & Knuckles. I mean the logo really looks out of place for me, the whole game does to be honest.
I don't get this whole Green Eye/Black Eye thing, I mean HUELEN is happy as fuck about it and everybody is crying. I would have wanted black eyes since its a successor to the genesis games but in the end why is it so important?
The Robotnick/Eggman thing I agree with somewhat, he should be called robotnick with eggman as a nickname that isn't used very often.
In all honestly I hate the 3D models, the game doesn't really look good to me because of it. Its just a huge meh to me. If it used HD 2D sprites it would have looked much, much better. It would have also made the game standout a bit. I also hate the inclusion of the home attack. I like it in 3D and see the need for it but it doesn't work well in 2D, plus its not needed and very unnecessary.
I see why they went with all these things introduced in the franchise recently from a business standpoint. They'll be getting the new fanboys with their green-eye'd, thin and tall sonic fighting his eggman, the genesis fanboys with their Sonic 4, and then there's the sonic fanboys who will buy anything with his face on it.
Still, they don't really need to do that. This was supposed to be for the old classic Sonic fan's since the new fanboys don't really give a shit about Sonic 4. I don't why they didn't do the little changes that the old fans want, its mostly one name, eyecolor and the size of sonics belly.
And then there's the running animation, which looks like shit. If sonic runs I want his legs to look like wheels or an 8.
And we're not so sure the game is even good, I hope it is so we just have to wait and see.
Well, at least HUELEN got exactly what he wanted :lol
