Although I do like the screens of Sonic 4.2 (SNOW STAGE, finally.) The perspective could be changed, yes.

All there is left is gameplay, really.
I live here now!

I have to say, I'm completely in love with the Snow Carnival/Christmas stage. Looks pretty damn awesome, and you can see the aurora in the background too! Love it!

Episode 2 definitely looks like a massive improvement to me. But 'meh' on there only being four levels again.

SEGA reps have said in the past that each of the episodes would get about 4-5 Zones each, so I don't see the problem. That has already been established. And the finished product once all three episodes have been done would be about 10-12 Zones....

Just because they've established a bad idea doesn't mean they should stick with it. If they want to keep them at 4 zones then don't charge 1200msp for it.

So now it's assumed it was a bad idea? Okay, I see why Episode 1 was bad, but what from I heard, one of those reasons wasn't because or how many zones were going to be put in. It was a marketing decision form thier persective to charge that amount of msp for profit and such....and yes that could change with Episode 2.......

Oh, but please if I'm wrong (which I will get marked out for being anyway) correct me.

Yeah, I won't really want to pay 1200 MSP for a game as short as Episode 1 was, regardless of whether or not it looks pretty.

It's not assumed at all. Sonic 4.1 was a complete rip off. 4.1 was a bad game for a lot of reasons, but it being a rip off has nothing to do with quality.

See, even Gavvie agrees and he just bought a Vita.

...Oh yeah, damn you Gavvie and your Vita! XD

Rip-off yes, but people still brought it and made a profit, regardless or which system is was on. Can't argue with that, Sonic these days is all about the money.

Still here. It's a cash-cow franchise after all. :P

And, it's only recently they started 'listening' to their fans. Sonic 4 Episode 1 was a piss-poor attempt at pleasing the older crowd.
