I pray all you folks who still think it'll be any good get to try it soon so that you can find out how terrible it really is. I maintain that this is still a terrible game, unless they somehow solve all the issues that were plaguing it in the build I played. But this is Sega so I do not expect anything will change.
Once officially released the internet should have a massive funeral for Sonic because with Sonic 4 he has lost all hope and faith from anyone brave enough to even consider there was might have been a future for him. RIP, Sonic. You will be missed. Your memory shall live on from your glory days.
