All the sonic characters have that , its weird. I figure they would give em special socks or something. But...nah.I like how Judo Shadow has the coverings over his standard shoes and not like his athletic shoes...it looks ridiculous hahaha
Sonic Mania took 2 years, no? 2020 would be 3 since the release of Mania, I think it's possible. Really interested with the 2021 game, though, as I don't see SEGA abandoning the Switch anytime soon. Maybe that game will come out for this gen, switch and next gen?They all look amazing.
Still. I wonder if there will even be a new Sonic game next year. Iizuka's statements strongly implied Sonic Team's next Sonic game will be in 2021, and it looks like a new Nights game might be happening soonish as well. I have no doubt Evening Star is working on a Sonic Mania sequel, but that won't be ready for a good while either. I'm going to guess no, there probably won't be a new game next year, but there will be teases.
They absolutely were. I think the general belief is the Team Attack Amigo DLC where you play as Tails, Blaze, and Omega was them scavenging the best of what they could finish. (It's worth noting they even slightly improved Tails' controls in this mode, but only this mode.)
Unless you meant completely fresh themes, locations, etc, built uniquely for them?
This is exactly how I feel whenever 06 gets bought up as an example to dismiss evolving Adventure gameplay further. :/the problems with forces had nothing to do with it being a boost game. it was a very bad boost game that was obviously scrapped together on top of lost world's movement rather than built on the unleashed/generations gameplay engine. it felt wrong and it moved wrong and the level design was awful.
2020 so far is just the Olympic game coming out in regards to Sonic related content yeah?
The Olympics game comes out next month, so 2020 is still a pretty empty calendar for Sonic so far.2020 so far is just the Olympic game coming out in regards to Sonic related content yeah?
What in the cold fuck did you just link me
Who knows? I ask that question myself. I mean, I found it funny due to how weird and disturbing this was

As of now, we got M&S Olympics in November, the mobile Sonic Olympics game next spring, and SEGA AGES Sonic 2 which remains undated. (M2, what's the hold up? I'm starving here...)
The Genesis mini was completely redone by them, so that slowed down AGES considerably.
I'm aware, it's just that M2 has announced and released other AGES titles in the meantime after they initially announced Sonic 2 was coming over a year ago and have kept mostly silent on it since, not even providing an update at the TGS panel a few weeks back. You would think that a guaranteed best-seller like that would be prioritized over the others since they're basically leaving a lot of money on the table by not having it up for sale by now. It's just painful to have to wait so long for what's sure to be one of the best versions of Sonic 2 ever released.
Yeah, that comment the M2 producer made about possibly adding new content to it has had me excited for the past year, but since then, not even a word about it, much less Saturn and Dreamcast games. This sucks. No one cares about Columns or Tant R or whatever shit they're releasing now.

The title caught me off guard lmao. I stand corrected.The Olympics game comes out next month, so 2020 is still a pretty empty calendar for Sonic so far.
I agree that Mania 2 seems like the best bet, though.
This is where i'm at.I'd be surprised if we got Mania 2 at this point. I think Evening Star was hiring for a 3D action game a month or two ago. I doubt it's Sonic related. I think they're moving on and would rather prove themselves in other ways than become known as the "team that makes classic-style Sonic games."
Granted, Sega could still publish something called Mania 2 without them...
She is apparently all the shoto's. Ryu Ken and AkumaWait
She's Ken? Nice. Ken had air fireballs in MvC games but they were downward like Gouki's
Cute fun video . Though its funny because none of those characters werre actually there, so I guess infinte decided to dress like captain ginyu and made friends with his powers because he was lonely and no one would hang out with him.
Reading between the lines I honestly think Sonic is dying. I don't mean to be alarmist but if you look at the way ex developers and current developers talk about the series it sure seems that way. Budget titles, long time creator (Iizuka) being credited as the only reason the series is alive, current developers constantly telling us how much they had to fight for animations, merch, physicals...
We all know Forces was a flop, but I'm not so sure Mania did that well. At least in relation to how good it was. I mean it was only 20. And that can be attributed to the current negative reputation as opposed to people not liking it
Even Crash and Spyro have leap frogged into best sellers.
They've dropped bad games before but it's kinda remarkable how fast they made games. But with new hardware and tech, games are taking even longer to make and more expensive. 4 years and they dropped forces. It will be 3 or 4 years minimum to the next game and ps5 and xbox are coming next year.
How is the next 3D game gonna be good with no funding. Man honestly I think it's curtains for the hedgehog. Or we are dangerously close to the point.
GI.biz said:Operating profit rose 30 per cent in Sega's games business in the last fiscal year, despite the company launching fewer titles than it had originally planned.
(...)
Sega's financial documents mentioned several Packaged Games as key releases for the year, including Sonic Mania and Sonic Forces. It also noted that Persona 5, which launched outside of Japan during the fiscal year, has now sold more than two million units.
The packaged games results show that Sega benefits from a slightly slimmer line-up at retail. The publisher released 16 titles in the first half of its current fiscal year, whereas it published 21 in the same six month period a year ago. Despite a smaller release slate, the publisher sold 8.65 million units during the six months, up from 4.65 million copies year-on-year.
This is thanks primarily to the strength of Sonic Mania, which the company proudly declared has the highest Metascore the series has seen for the past 15 years. It also highlighted Total War: Warhammer 2 as a key launch and sales driver.
Source?We know that they had prototypes after Generations that were physics based and NOT a rehash of the boost formula, but obviously none of those got approved or turned out.
Nintendo doesn't have experience with handling something like 3D Sonic though.Honestly imo, the only path forward is for Sega to outright outsource a mainline project straight to Nintendo with next to no input.
I don't actually think 3d sonic is as difficult as Sega has made it.Yeah, I've noticed this gen that Sega have been spreading more attention to other franchises than before compared to previous gens where their reliance on Sonic was pretty evident.

Why would it's character design be relevant. I think Sonic can survive as a brand sure, but I just don't see the 3d games surviving at this rate.I dont think sonic is dying. Its character design is too strong.
It cant sell shit products too good anymore. Now if they cant turn ot around, death will come. But for right now folks will but a good sonic product. They just won't buy a bad one
