I'm sorry but if you're going through an HD remake of Green Hill with Modern Sonic, I'd appreciate the visuals before barreling full speed through it.

As much as i enjoyed unleashed. The lack of platforming pissed me off. Colours was 10x better due to the series going back to its roots, fast paced platforming. Its nice to see sonic team is learning.

I agree with the above. Colours was good fun, PS360 folks should get a chance to try some fun modern Sonic.

Hey, in defense of BSF, I quite enjoyed those parts too. The sense of speed is amazing. I was on the edge of my seat, eyes glued to the screen.

But I also enjoyed the platforming parts. A good Sonic game is a mix of both. Now Colors is my favorite Sonic game, but there is more 2D than 3D parts. I'd prefer a better balance, but I'm not complaining.

Their has to be platforming in a Sonic game. Thats what made the original sonic games great, the perfect balance between momentum and platforming. Not BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOST.
If i want that ill buy a racing game.

Couldn't have said it better.

It seems weird to me that they can't seem to emulate the physics of a game made in the 90s in today's physics heavy world. But even if they could it wouldn't matter because the "speed sections" of modern sonic don't feel like the roller coasters they used to. Just flat roads with turns or walls depending if it's sidestep or drift. So you never have to earn that sense of speed...

... fuck Sonic is basically one step away from having exp just so it has a bar it can fill.

I'm not saying that there should be more speeding sections. I'm just saying that since all of the Classic Sonic levels are platforming, there should be minimal Platforming sections with Modern Sonic. That's all I'm saying.

This.
If I wanted something that drifted around corners at a stupid speed then I'd just play F-Zero.

I agree with Debra also. As i said sonic is all about fast platforming, not go in a straight line and hit this button a few times.
