Sadly… these ponifications don’t work, because once a hedgehog, always a hedgehog.

@Background Pony
 
Yep

Y’know, I actually liked “Sonic Rush Advnture” more then “Sonic Rush 1.” Especially, ‘cause they fixed that problem when grinding on rails, that if you jump you’d fall through it in SR1. I also liked the online mode.

@Beau Skunky  
I counted all of 3-4 games. The Advance series was okay, but it started to taste very heavily of dashpad spam by Adv3. Rush was good. Rush Adventure was bleh. Colours DS was pretty decent. S’about it.

I don’t know, I thought they made some of the more enjoyable Sonic games in the past few years. I think they even did a good job on the 3DS version of “Sonic Generations.” (In fact, I felt the physics/movements for “Classic Sonic” felt more true to the old games in the 3DS version, then the console version did.)
 
@Azure Moon  
I heard DIMPs only made the “daytime” stages for that game. They didn’t make the whole game.

@Background Pony
 
DIMPS made the Sonic Advance series, which was pretty good IMO. They goof’d on Sonic Unleashed Wii, and it kind of spiraled from there.

@Beau Skunky  
I’m not. DIMPS’ games have been fairly lackluster on the whole, with only a select few (like the first Sonic Rush) being actually good. The rest is just overly linear dashpad spam.

Disapointing DIMPS isn’t going to help develop the 3DS version. They did a good job on the DS & GBA Sonic games.

@Crowley  
….. win.

@Sonic the Hedgehog  
You got a good point, but I am still hoping this rumor turns out to be true.

@SRD639  
Maybe soon, it will be considered too uncool to bash or hate Sonic the Hedgehog. I dream of that day.

“According to a 4chan user named “Wentos,” who leaked the existence of Sonic Generations two months prior to its official announcement in 2011, the next Sonic game has a working title of Sonic Excursion and will be released for all major game platforms, including PC, consoles, and 3DS, in November 2013. The game is a sort of follow-up to Sonic Generations – and by that I don’t mean it’ll be feature Classic Sonic or old-school side-scrolling, but rather the game’s take on 3D Sonic. The “excursion” title refers to a theme of major Sonic characters all taking part in the same grand adventure.
 
He shared a rather lengthy description of the game as he saw it in presentation, and it looks as though it’ll feature classic-style character selects reminiscent of Sonic Advance, where each character plays more or less the same way with minor differences in abilities, and a number of other responses to fan feature requests. Click below to see the full description.” from here.

Remain cautious, yet excited.

Looks fun, can’t wait for more information

New Sonic game announced! Has levels and lighting!
 
Uuuh, ok.

@Sonic the Hedgehog  
You’re gonna go far.. Sonic the hedgehog… And I think you’ve finally broke the scale of “how awesome are you?” because the score went over above its limit.
 
FUCK YEAH

We all agree with you, Sonic.

Considering the Sonic Dimensions rumor turned out to be bullshit, I’m skeptic about this. I’ll wait for an official announcement.

@Sono  
Yeah, sounds like it’s going to be a 3D version of “Sonic Advance.” (Which is a good thing IMO, that was a good game.) Also, personally I kinda missed playing as characters who weren’t Sonic, and it’s nice they’re bringing back alternate character paths.
 
@Background Pony  
I liked “Sonic Heroes” personally, and to be fair, the “Shadow” game only let you play as one character, (who’s basically a different version of “Sonic”) so I’m not sure if that’s a good example of a “multi-character” game.

@Background Pony
 
Well. that’s what they’re doing with this game. They’ve said before (before the working title of excursion) that their new game would be pretty much the 3D Generation segments, and different characters would allow different routes through the level. There’s no mention of any Heroes or 06 like character mechanics.

Please have a 3DS version… (That’s the only “next-gen” system I have.)

@Background Pony  
Wentos no.  
Wintos -the guy who “leaked” this- yes.
 
In short, it’s not the same guy.

@Sweecrue  
I guess Wentros was full of shit when he leaked Unleashed.. And Sonic 4.. and Sonic Colours.. and Sonic Generations..
 
So how finely tuned did you say those bullshit senses of yours were?

@Background Pony  
I can tell bullshit when I see it.
