Sonic Mania looks tits awesome. Also, since we're getting a new modern Sonic game anyway going back to Generations was easily the best choice(half of it will be unleashed gameplay I'm not a fan of but more HD classic Sonic is definitely welcome).
This was all announced at the cringefest that was the anniversary show, which was Konami E3 levels of garbage. If I find a good video chronicling the bad of it I'll post it later.

Taxman and Stealth doing their own solo Sonic :gladbron
As for the new project, At least Sonic Team are going back to the games in the last decade people actually liked, Generations and Colors. All they need to do is sort the length issues of some of the stages. Planet Wisp was fucking awful to slog through in Generations because it just went on and on and on (Still astounds me that the best level in Generations was Crisis City from Sonic 2006. The classic version was hella fun)

Those... those actually look good. WTF is going on at Sega!? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ???
-
That Mania title screen animation is pretty great : :jawalrus
-
Another 3D game.
:donot
But Mania? Made by the dude who did those awesome enhanced Sonic 1, 2 and CD ports? All over that. Looks great, even though it's kind of sad that to make a good Sonic game, you have to go back and re-use 16-bit assets. :doge
-
I can't believe I stayed up to almost 1AM watching the stream only to be given a CG trailer :fbm
Crush 40 was nice tho.
-
Mania looks fucking awesome, it was funny I was recently telling my friend about Christian Whitehead's Sonic CD remake and then it turns out he'll be doing a new throwback game. Even the 3D one, if they go back to Generations, may not be so bad. Just keep the cinematics and furry shit to a low.

Mania looks good
-
Generations was probably the best 3D Sonic since the original Sonic Adventure and Mania looks really great, too. Sega finally doing something right for a change with their most enduring franchise? What a time to be alive.
-
haven't really liked sonic since 1994 but i will absolutely give mania a shot
-
That boss music sounds pretty dope. :rock
-
Mania looks really good. Generations was really good too, hopefully that whole "darkness" trailer doesnt make it all edgy

Sonic faces his greatest challenge. Stepping on Legos.

I know its cool to rag on Sega, Sonic, and the Wii, but eff it, Sonic Colors was great. I'll gladly take more of that. Haven't played Generations yet but it seems like it was a nostalgia grab done right. Wouldn't it be nice if Sega actually got this shit right for once?

Sonic Mania is the exactly kind of game I've been waiting for sooo long. I can't wait to see more of it.

Yeah Generations was really great, the god awful shitty final boss aside. If you like Colors, you'll like Generations too.
-
Mania looks like what Sonic 4 should have been. I still chuckle when I think about how Sega hyped it, shit Episode 1 out, dribbled Episode 2 out which fixed some of the complaints, and then went completely silent on Episode 3 even though the "saga" is clearly unfinished.
What I most liked about the Mania trailer is the lighter color of Sonic. Being legit serious too. /HUELEN
Oh and the music was great.
Project Sonic is giving me Sonic 2006 vibes of grimdark self-seriousness, not a good thing but Colors and Gen were good enough for me to be selectively hopeful (for now.)
-
I never understood the Sonic gameplay.
When everything goes fast, it's too difficult to do anything cause everything moves so fast, so it's like you're on a rails
And when things are slow, it becomes a platformer; a very typical platformer inferior to Mario
Sonic has always been bad.
-
Yeah these look good, fuck sonic haters! Fuck sonic fans too!

Hmm... so it's going to be Sonic 3 + Knuckles. Interesting. Seems like this (if good) will be the true Sonic 4, then?
-
That trailer warmed the cockles of my heart and I don't even think the Genesis games were all that great.
$20 too :lawd
That video is almost ruined by the green eyed bitch in the thumbnail though. :wag

Lol in the official trailer Mania is literally the next "true" Sonic after "& Knuckles," haha (elevator = 1, 2, 3, K, M.)
RIP Sonic CD :'(
Burn in hell Sonic 4 :sheik
-
holy shit they even had a little knuckles chaotix in there
-
Mania might end up being my first Sonic game I ever play. :doge
-
I like how the elevator goes 1-2-3-K-M because 4 was trash

It's one of the best things about the trailer.
Along with the music.
And the gameplay.
And the animation.
But mostly the music.

There was a 4?

There was 2/3rds of a 4.

Ok, Hulen. Settle down.

:trigger

Never cared all that much about Sonic, but I hope Mania sells 3 billion copies, as a big fuck you to Nintendo.

:confused

Very minor nitpick: the way Sonic's sprite rotates on inclines and loops kinda bothers me.
-
i'm still confused as to what exactly this game is. will it just be a bunch of new levels using themes and enemies and whatnot from the old sonics?
-
works for me game looks amazing
-
I want mania in my veins like now.
