Honestly if Sega took every single Zone from Sonic 1 - Sonic 3 and remade it for 2D & 3D gameplay like seen in Sonic Generations, I'd be all over that.


Anyways in terms of Sonic Mania, i played the demo and liked it. Very excited for its release.

the sonic general is at /vg/
>this isn't a general
THEN STOP MAKING SO MANY THREADS WITH THE SAME HEADER

I want a functioning 3D Sonic game
Of course there will be a sequel, romhacks cost nearly nothing to make.

how much longer is the wait?

Why is sonic 3 so long and unfun

Levels drag on too much

Old Zones

>Green Hill Zone
>Star Light Zone
>Chemical Plant Zone
>Casino Night Zone
>Stardust Speedway Zone
>Metallic Madness Zone
>Hydrocity Zone
>Icecap Zone
>Flying Battery Zone
>Lava Reef Zone

Original Zones

>Studiopolis Zone
>White Castle Zone
>Clockwork Tower Zone
>Illusion Mansion Zone
>Sakura Valley Zone
>Egg Fortress Zone
>Final Rush Zone

You heard it here first

You can't have an illusion and a mirage in the same game. That's not how it works.

>People still play this dull fucking run to the finish game.

26 years of the same tedious bullshit. I really hope this franchise dies so Sega can actually think up something good that can replace this cocky little blue furry fuck.

Whoever made this is going to get a great job with Sonic Team.

why isn't sonic colors on PC? wtf, do it already. same for sonic unleashed.

Sonic Colors is overrated.

don't care, I wanna play it on pc. Might have to break out my wii or try emulating it.

I feel like Stardust Speedway Act 2 will be in the present, the boss fight in the bad future, and the post-fight will transform it into the good future.

Dolphin is in great shape, go for it.

For Unleashed, download the mod that lets you play Unleashed day stages for Generations. It works perfectly and is the best part of Unleashed.

I think he deserves to be able to play beast Sonic stages.

Nobody wants that garbage.

Boost Sonic is unfun and you know it.

Warehog is even less fun.

You're absolutely right, what was I thinking, arguing against someone as informed as you. I will eat my sword now.

Glad you understand :^)

Daily reminder that today is the half way point. 50 DAYS AWAY FROM MANIA.

I CAN'T WAIT THAT LONG

So where will this take place in the game? The animation, I mean. At the start of the game? Will it even be in the game? inb4 none of the preorder animations are in the damn game

>wanting my 31st birthday with zero sexual contact to come sooner

Fuck u

>pain in the back of my head
>think I might be dying
>first throught is

FUCK, I WON'T BE ABLE TO PLAY MANIA.

maybe I deserve death

I'm hoping for Hydrocity to be the S3 rep zone.
As for the sequel, I hope Taxman and Co. are let free to do whatever they want. Make a totally original Sonic game with no ties to past games. Make a true sequel to Sonic 3 and Knuckles after this still fantastic looking leashed warm-up.

How does that make you think death is imminent?

I expect sequel because that's all that fucking comes out these days
>sequel
>remakes
>remasters
>fml
>get original ffs

Still a while to go, but I'm eagerly awaiting. Been replaying all the old games recently.

When can I preorder Sonic Forces on the Steam platform?

See that hard boiled heavy with the star?

You know every Sonic game has -THAT- level which just slows down the entire game?

Sonic 1, Lab zone
Sonic 2, Metropolis
Sonic 3, Carnival
SK, Sandopolis

I guarantee you, whatever that fucking star heavy boiled level is, is going to be Manias. REMEMBER THIS POST.

BLUE SPHERE IS BACK IN MANIA
HOLY SHIT, IT'S GREAT
NO WAY

yfw the Chemical Plant boss is Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine

That's just from Sonic 3 & Knuckles. I recognize the color of the tiles and the sphere count.

Does Sonic Forces even have a release date yet?

Over time I've actually really started to like Sandopolis.

The bouncy goo checks out.

I have no fucking clue why people want blue spheres back, OR halfpipe for the special zones back. Replaying both games today, halfpipe with tails is CANCER, and the bluespheres is just so, so terrible

we've also been confirmed special stage will be brand new in Mania, you know it's gonna be a mind fuck

>Does Sonic Forces even have a release date yet?

It's on literally no site. No one even has a page set aside for the game. The only one who's marketing it is Sega themselves.

It's a ninja themed level.

I was diagnosed with autism as a kid (ass burgers) and I loved sonic games. not to the point of all that weird shit, but I would play it every single day after school without fail. Got to the point where I could finish S3+K in under 3 hours legit.

My question is, with all the next level wierdness out there related to sonic, why is it that sonic attracts autism so much? From kids like I was, who had an autistic level of love for the games, right up to pic related.

>but its kids being kids
pic related did not come from the mind of a child.

I think it's just retarded homosexual furries, rather than autism.

>"pre"order

Not as the Special Stage though:

The best ones are Sonic CD and Sonic Rush

youtube.com/watch?v=jV4WrCW-5Lw

I'm looking forward to see what they came up with. Sonic CD's were my favorite.

Fuck your crap opinions, I love Blue Spheres and I want more of it.

>the color of the tiles and the sphere count
Look at Sonic's color palette.

Sonic CD's was good but only after Christian Whitehead tweaked it for the HD revision.

In its raw form it was too jerky and uncontrollable.

Ooh, that extra animation

You forgot Mirage Saloon Zone

>confirmedfake.jpeg

...

Daily reminder that if Mania sells well, Sega will see the demand for the game and let Whitehead and team go crazy in the sequel, no remastered zone, all brand new zones, and if they are, you know they're going to be from Modern Sonic games [City Escape] and we'll get the most batshit off the wall 2d Sonic game the world has ever seen, with insane backgrounds like Lava Reef boss with the giant fucking robotnik head in the background, but x10 and on steroids.

...

>I think it's just retarded homosexual furries,
There's a point to be made for that, but I think pic related is driven far more by autism than homosexuality or anthropomorphism.

Plus like I said, even outside of all the weirdness it attracts autistic children like no other game. Colorful, fast moving hedgehog? maybe it's that simple, but I think something more is at work here.

The contrast of the whole image is blown out, you can't judge it based on that.

And the sphere count and tile colors absolutely line up with a Sonic & Knuckles special stage (this one, to be exact, noteworthy for being the least number of spheres you have to collect in a stage) so that would mean they're wholesale reusing an entire map, which is shit.

On that note, though, I hate Sonic's blue shade in Sonic Mania (Knuckles looks weird too). I'm hoping for a palette or a sprite mod on the PC version.

I thought the original Sonic CD special stages played fine.

Cute!

fuck off, all the special stages are fun. I'm looking forward to a new one though.

Right but kids who make that kind of stuff just let it go after they turn 18. Like 90% of them. We just continue to make fun of the ones that are left.

Falk did good on the re-mastering

Sonic 1's special stages aren't fun...

And Sonic Heroes' controlled like garbo (though that's a criticism against the whole game).

>Heaven can't save us

>No place left to go
This was actually in a Sonic game

Shadow the Hedgehog was a happy little mistake. Can't believe it was the last game Yuji Naka had a hand in.

shot at 0:36 will never be topped, stars animation is god tier. I'm more excited to see the intro/outro animations to this fucking game

Making a broody, morose character with a tragic backstory who uses it as an excuse to be antagonistic is an easy sell. There was no "accident", it was pretty deliberate.

This song is the living embodiment of the word

EDGY.

I couldn't post it with since I already had an image attached but this is the blue shade Sonic should be.

>It could even open the gates of Hell!
Said Sonic in a Secret Rings cutscene

The giant Robotnik head is the Death Egg 2. It was launched from the Rocket Base Zone at the end of Sonic 3, but crashed back down after the fight against Big Arm. In Sonic and Knuckles, Robotnik is trying to launch it again, and he succeeds after he steals the Master Emerald from Knuckles in the Hidden Palace Zone. You can see the empty hole it leaves behind as you warp up to Sky Sanctuary Zone.

>deepest lore

Still, I agree with you and really want them to have stages with epic scenery like that.

Mania Sonic sprite colour is based off the animation of CD, where he is light blue. but this is a IRL cell of that animation, which is his ORIGINAL darker blue colour, but when you take drawn art and turn it into animation, the colour saturated and went light blue, so to this day people think classic sonic is light blue, which he was never intended to be

heres another cell

You can see the giant eyes of the egg and entire shape staring at your ass in lava reef, just before you fall down that lava pit part

I know! It's fucking awesome! S&K put a lot of effort into making the entire Death Egg 2 relaunch sequence feel both real and threatening. It still blows me away, replaying it.

1:30

This is the background Mania has to beat, look how fucking HORRIFYING that shit looks looming at your ass in the background, I remember seeing that as a kid and just being like

... OH.

The end of Lava Reef to the start of Sky Sanctuary was pure kino

It's fucking art.

>yfw Mania has a Death Egg launch again, except this time, it has a body

Whichever crazy user did this, needs to see if they can do it with chem plant 1/2

sounds like a mix of paranoia and health anxiety. it goes together like rum and coke.

I don't know much about sonic, but this looks fun.

Well, you're free to find out.

Give Sonic 3 & Knuckles a go sometime. It's fun.

user here with the head pain, this user gets it.

Live in a constant fear of health and anxiety for the past couple of years, doctors says its nothing, but I can feel the pain -as- I type this, no idea what the fuck is going on.

I just wanna see more Sega references in Mania like in Studiopolis.

Like give me my After Burner, Puyo Puyo, Virtua Fighter and Vectorman reference

The fact there is about 5billion references alone in Studio means 100%there will be in other levels

Apparently there's some kind of Puyo Puyo (or rather Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine) boss fight or something.

I think it's the boss of Chemical Plant. There's supposed to be a "surprise" at the end of the zone and apparently (I don't know if this is true because I never played Mean Bean Machine) when you land on those sticky purple pads, the sound it makes comes from Puyo Puyo.

Tyson is a good animator, but he fucking sucks at making a scene look interesting. The camera is always completely static.
