Sonic Central stream - revealing upcoming projects for the Sonic franchise

sonic.png

Sonic news is on the way. With the 30th anniversary of the franchise set to take place just next month, SEGA is finally ready to give fans a look at what they can expect from the blue blur. On May 27th, a "first look" at the upcoming projects, events, and partnerships will be shown, courtesy of a live stream scheduled for 9am PT/12pm ET. If the rumors are true, we may just see Sonic Colors Ultimate Edition or a Sonic Anniversary Collection that includes Sonic 3. For now, we wait. You can catch the live reveals on the official Sonic the Hedgehog Twitch or YouTube page, or tune into our news coverage to see what gets confirmed.

I've learned to no longer care about the Sonic series unless it's a 2D handheld game or has Christian Whitehead's name on it
oh hell yeah, if not S3&K if they don't ever do licensing issues fixed

then at least let's do Sonic Mania 2 already

unironically if they where to fix all the bugs from 06 and make it hd, it would stand a chance of being a decent game...
Eh...

The pacing would still be terrible and environments would still be ugly and boring as hell, the plot really doesn't have much going for it either and level design is still confusing and obnoxious.

Best option would be to remake the whole game from the ground up, but at that point it'd just be a whole different game.

Sega would find a way to make it worse than when it came out.

They've not made a great sonic game since adventures 1, which hasnt aged that well.

This will likely be another retro collection with different versions with pins and badges.

Alot, and myself would like to see adventures 1 re imagined, but there was loads wrong with the game, that to make it work would need to be cut.

The core would beed changing completely:
We dont want to play tails story basically racing against sonic in every level.

We dont want to be a cat basically fishing for a frog that always eacapes.

We dont want to be amy avoiding been captured by a robot in every level.

We don't want to be a robot getting from a to b within a time limit.

Dont want to be knuckles basically collecting emerald shards.

Yes, it was good back then, but sonic had the main story, the others i never played as much.

Maybe if they build a big city for station square so levels can be sandbox rather than how it was on the dc.

sonic 06 with a max resolution of 120p, 10p textures, aspect ratio of 3:4(nope, not 4:3, and this is the only aspect ratio because fuck you), 25 fps max +plus more bugs than last time, and an extended kissing scene! Also no modding support because we hate you.(also it's an egs exclusive on pc and runs at 15 fps on consoles)

Don't forget to remove all the remaining surfaces from the levels, because let's be honest, the best feature of the game is the unexpected falling through the floor to the void. And also remaster all levels into 100% running sequences.

One proviso: it has to be good.

3D Sonic needs a reboot and to ditch the boost crap. There's so much potential there ( see Sonic Utopia ) but none of the 3D games do it for me (Adventure 1 came close with true momentum based platforming but a lot of that game is a hot mess)

Hopefully the collection gets announced and it includes 3K by Taxman. That would be a dream reveal for me :) I know we have Sonic 3 AIR now but a new release with them all in one place on console would be fantastic.
How about Sonic Heroes how did you feel about that 3d game? I myself really loved it and would like something along those lines or even I remaster x.x
