Sega hasn't ruined everything with Sonic 4.

You're citing ancient history as if it was relevant.

Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it :D

I don't think the game looks horrible, it just doesn't look like it's gonna be on par with the Genesis games. Sonic just seems generic now, the games have lost that magic that made the series great, there's no feeling of depth to Sonic's world anymore.

Yeah, It's quite rediculous how people love to make judgements on a game by pure screenshots, or even video! You need to play games yourself in order to determine if a game is good or crap!

Some people just love to complain for the sake of complaining.

I thought those gifs were rather funny too.

I think I'll buy the first episode on WiiWare, then wait for the whole series to come up on disc. Once (or if) that happens, I think I'll buy it for 360.

What's going on in those videos? Is it a bug that Sonic can't jump correctly when in that cart or something?

This is my take: "wait and see" though that doesn't mean I can't have a bit of fun critiquing the leaks of the game's content. :p

I'm definitely hoping there's a demo though, like with some other wiiware titles... (unless they given it a PC release, which I may opt for -they really should IMO)

Those gif animations are most definitely hilarious. :D

Yeah, lol... we're not all 12 anymore.

Reason #19: not owning a Wii, PS3, or Xbox 360.

The only reason I need.

I think this sums it up rather well.

That's just stupid. According to this, nobody should complain about anything ever. We should all just take what we are given and not speak up about it, especially when something is in development and can still be changed and made better before it is released as a result of such complaints/feedback. There's no such thing as a legitimate gripe.

To whomever made that chart: I don't want to hear about you complaining about anything EVER. A game is bad? No it's not, no game is bad, you just like complaining. Now STFU.

Fair point, we've all got a right to moan and bitch to our hearts content.

A bit "forced cool" by Sega if you ask me.

I don't mind the sonic advance style sprites as much, or Rush for that matter... but the odd thing about this is sonic isn't a sprite, but a 3D rendered model with the weird glowy effect around him... It looks off to me. If it WAS just a higher res sonic advance/rush sprite (2D tile), I think I'd be much happier with the look.
The Sonic 3 Sprites are still my favorites though.

They appear to have forsaken their Sega PC fans... (as I mentioned above) Unless that changes and they do opt for a PC release. (an iPhone release is no help)

People who should STFU are people with bullshit ideas like

Yeah, I'm sure someone at SEGA's frantically taking notes as we speak. 'Sonic CD? In 2.5D? Remastered, HD sprites, you say? Cripes, why didn't we think of that? I'll get on that right away!'

I mean, honestly. Are we to assume that, say, Youtube commenters have a better idea of how to produce a videogame than people whose job it is to produce videogames in the first place? Let me just open up SONIC ROBO BLAST 2050 EXTREME EDITION (c)Game Maker Workshop 2003 unregistered edition for a moment just to check. Then I'll open up fanfiction.net in a new tab, and also check out DeviantART and all the fourteen-year-olds and their fancharacters. Because everyone's special snowflake opinions matter and anyone saying otherwise should STFU.
