Whoa! That list seems to lean more to modern than classic, hopefully some worthwhile music gets in the game, mainly any remixes.

 

[Segtendo]

Tried the demo. My thought
OMFGSPINDDASHNOOB
Seriously, that spindash button is BROKEN. You can spam the hell out of it.
Enjoyed it though. Anxious for modern Sonic's demo.

 

[Poltergust]

These are all great choices. The only ones I would probably switch around is Sky Sanctuary Zone with Hydrocity Zone (but Sky Sanctuary also rocks) and Seaside Hill/Ocean Palace with Frog Forest. I dunno, Seaside Hill is basically the Green Hill Zone of Sonic Heroes, and we don't have a forest stage in that list (maybe Planet Wisp?), but whatever.

No Sonic CD is also disappointing, but I'll live.

 

[SonicBOOM XS]

Hmmm...yes, the level choices AND amount are somewhat disappointing (come on, at LEAST 14), but the ones that ARE chosen are really good.

BUT, if it was MY list?

Sonic 1: Green Hill Zone, Scrap Brain Zone, Spring Yard Zone
Sonic CD: Palmtree Panic, Stardust Speedway, Metallic Madness
Sonic 2: Chemical Plant Zone, Oil Ocean Zone, Sky Fortress Zone
Sonic 3 & Knuckles: Hydrocity Zone, Launch Base Zone, Sky Sanctuary Zone, Death Egg
Sonic Adventure: Sky Deck, Speed Highway, Emerald Coast (BIG. FREAKING. WHALE.)
Sonic Adventure 2: City Escape, Metal Harbor, Final Rush
Sonic Heroes: Grand Metropolis, Frog Forest, Egg Fleet (Seaside Hill/Ocean Palace was already done in S&SASR)
Sonic 06: Crisis City, Kingdom Valley, Flame Core
Sonic and the Secret Rings: Evil Foundry, Night Palace
Sonic Unleashed: Spagonia, Adabat, Empire City
Sonic and the Black Knight: Misty Lake
Sonic Colors: Tropical Resort, Aquarium Park, Planet Wisp, Asteroid Coaster
Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Mad Gear Zone
Something fans have wanted: CHAO GARDENS!!!

A lot, a lot, but some of these could be DLC.

And I like the Sonic Adventure/2/Unleashed route they're taking with this, with the multiple missions per stage idea.

 

[finalark]

I never really got the fixation on Chaos. I find the whole side quest boring and really wish they used the disk space for something else.

 

[Mr. Johan]

I kinda want my own credit card fashioned in Omochao's image now.

 

[OmegaXXII]

^ What the heck do you mean?

 

[finalark]

So, I played the demo.

SEGA, you guys are awesome. The classic game play is incredibly similar to the Genesis titles. And yes, the physics are intact this time. For everyone who was disappointed by Sonic 4, this is the game you were looking for.

Also, every single thing in that demo down to the very sounds it makes is pure nostalgia.

Idk I personally thought that they were cute as hell and as twisted as it is I thought it was fun abusing them

Besides I assume this is one of those nostalgia things people want back just for the sake of having it back

You sick, sick soul. I got sooooo sad when I took away a Chao's food and he never smiled again.

It should be put back, IMO, just in a more refined fashion and offering more content than your standard Nintendogs clone.

How are Chaos a Nintendogs clone? They've been around for far longer.

Scratch that, virtual pets have been around far longer than Nintendogs has. I never really got the appeal, I'd rather take care of a real pet than a fake one.

 

[mystery_dungeon]

I found this rather amusing.

@finalark

Chaos is a clone of no one. Just the first "monster of the week."

 

[finalark]

This link is good and you should feel good.

Shadow was the next monster of the week, too bad he won't leave

 

[mystery_dungeon]

I felt good watching that.

Shadow was the next monster of the week, too bad he won't leave

Neither will Metal Sonic, who was next in line for monster of the week.

(Are we going to keep doing this until we get to Dark Gaia?)

 

[finalark]

(Are we going to keep doing this until we get to Dark Gaia?)

Yes.

So, how about those Black Arms of the week?

 

[mystery_dungeon]

Yes.

Ok, if that's how you want to play...

So, how about those Black Arms of the week?

Be on the lookout for Solaris of the week. He eats time for breakfast.

 

[finalark]

Be on the lookout for Solaris of the week. He eats time for breakfast.

Solaris is nothing compared to Dark Gaia. Oh wait, Dark Gaia got its *** kicked by a small annoying creature.

 

[mystery_dungeon]

Solaris is nothing compared to Dark Gaia. Oh wait, Dark Gaia got its *** kicked by a small annoying creature.

And said small annoying creature jumped right out of his body the minute he saw the real villain, the greatest mind in the world, Dr. Eggman!

 

[finalark]

the greatest mind in the world, Dr. Eggman!

Who is thankfully back to being the primary antagonist again. No more monsters of the week!

 

[mystery_dungeon]

Who is thankfully back to being the primary antagonist again. No more monsters of the week!

Must have been because he's been playing "Dr. Eggman Adventure" since Unleashed.

 

[finalark]

Must have been because he's been playing "Dr. Eggman Adventure" since Unleashed.

Wow, I can't believe I never knew about that Easter egg.

Yeah, he was probably so busy with Power Stone and Phantasy Star Online that he decided to let other bad guys take over while he plays Crazy Taxi and Shenmue. He's probably already finished Skies of Arcadia and regularly attends Marvel Vs Capcom tourneys.

Forgot about that O.o

 

[Fuelbi]

They DID say that they'd be coming up with another enemy that's not eggman

 

[Poltergust]

I'm pretty sad I saw most of the basic spoilers of this game. Oh well.

 

[M.K]

If they put Chaos and the Chao minigames into this game, I would buy it instantly.
It's sad, maybe a bit shallow, but it's completely true. I LOVED the Chao aspect of SA2:B and I would LOVE to see it return.
That's the aspect of SA2:B that gave it such replayability. If you're not the "omg must get every ring 100%" kind of player, Chaos are what made the game enjoyable.

 

[finalark]

For me it was doing all of the extra missions that gave it replayability. But to each his own.

 

[Segtendo]

Well, according to the stuff hackers found, we will have little missions for every stage, Modern and Classic.
There are 5 each stage, I believe.

 

[Fuelbi]

I can't believe they find all this stuff in a demo. I thought that the demo only carried information on the stages it has and that's it, not the entire game

 

[Segtendo]

Well, Sega is bound to get their stuff leaked.
Look at Sonic 4. Guy leaked videos of every stage, thus making SEGA push back the release date to fix things up.
Seriously, they should only put necessities in their demo...

 

[SonicBOOM XS]

Never saw that cameo. =/

I can't help looking at the spoilers. DX
We need some final bosses in there, too.

 

[finalark]

We need some final bosses in there, too.

Not as Final Bosses, but in general I'm expecting to see Metal Sonic and Chaos at least get a cameo.

 

[SonicBOOM XS]

HEYHEYHEY if we're getting Perfect Chaos, we should get Finalhazard, Metal Madness, Solaris, Dark Gaia, Devil Doom (OH PLEASE OH PLEASE OH PLEASE!!!), and Nega-Wisp Armor.

 

[Fuelbi]

I honestly hope we don't get Metal Madness.

It turned an awesome looking character into an ugly monster. And I don't mean the ugly kind that's beast, I mean the ugly kind that's not cool. I honestly preferred his original design with the red line coming down across his face better :/

EDIT:

And Solaris sucked, Finalhazard is basically a rehash of Perfect Chaos with its DNA, Dark Gaia got beat by a little creature, that ain't cool, and Devil Doom was a Shadow the Hedgehog boss.

 

[finalark]

HEYHEYHEY if we're getting Perfect Chaos, we should get Finalhazard, Metal Madness, Solaris, Dark Gaia, Devil Doom (OH PLEASE OH PLEASE OH PLEASE!!!), and Nega-Wisp Armor.

I doubt we're going to see every single final boss from every game. Especially the bosses from the most lack luster titles. The only reason why I think we'll see Metal Sonic is because he's a fan favorite and as for Chaos SA1 was the first 3D Sonic. It would make sense from him to at least make a cameo.

 

[OmegaXXII]

Devil Doom is decent but Metal Sonic should definetly appear, he's always been my favorite villain besides Robotnik.

Hopefully Vector makes a cameo, he's my favorite Sonic character.

 

[Mr. Johan]

So,

Summer of Sonic just happened in the UK.

A certain song was played at the event.

Someone had the foresight to stream it so that the background noise can get cut off. Another person converted the song to mp3.

Classic City Escape is now on my Ipod.

 

[Segtendo]

Classic City Escape is now on my Ipod.

YES.
A copy with no background SFX.
Thank you.

 

[Fuelbi]

Dammit I demand to hear the modern version of the song.

All I ever care for in this game is for the Modern Sonic but dammit I only hear about Classic Sonic news anymore
