I never thought of that.. If it's digital over PSN, they better price it cheaper. For a game this epic, it really deserves to be on a disc for collection. I actually didn't get Patapon 2 because of that reason, my attachment to something tangible..

You're right here's a comparision between them

I wonder, if the game is 2D will it be a network release? Seems like it, though while I never ignore a game because of how its distributed I do wonder what will happen down the line when I dont physically own these games and they are no longer obtainable. Money well wasted?

Yeah, you're right. It's just like the images of the rings and their sound effects; it's all suggesting a (hopefully) glorious return to the past.

It should be noted that the silhouette you can see in that thumbnail preview is in fact the original Sonic 1 “Press Start” logo… just silhouetted and blurred. You can see the top spike, and the tip of his finger sticking out there.

I hope that's a good indication that it's gonna be a sprite-based game.

Can't believe it's 10 years to the day. Crazy Taxi, Shenmue, Phantasy Star Online using a modem, so many good memories. I couldn't believe what I was seeing when I hooked it up to my big TV, better than the arcades.

Agreed the daytime levels were great but honestly, I liked the music in Unleashed. It sounded more like classic sonic tunes than other more recent games. It started to feel like I should be tripping on X at a club than playing a Sonic game.

Well it isn't like it is a tall chore to get this right. All they have to do is make a game full of levels just like the daytime levels in Sonic Unleashed kept in a 2D perspective and bam, you have great game.

lol, hilarious comic strip. Haven't played Dark Knight yet, I thought Ring was okay, and Unleashed was awesome, I could play the day stages all day. So if they use the good parts from Unleashed, a good Sonic game really “shouldn't” be that hard, just get rid of the gimmicks.

Cool trailer. I thought Unleashed was quite a good game too, even the werehog action platforming despite some frustrating camera angles as usual.

Waiting for Muramasa HD too, 6 months, a year, bring it on.

You and me both Marc. We'll just have to wait and see if Sega wakes up this time.
