Sonic Riders Zero Gravity had decent single player, but has unstalbe difficulty (sometimes too easy, sometimes you swear the AI cheats) and ridiclous slow downs in multiplayer. =/
It sort of had a "kart racer" feel, but didn't rely on wacky items much, so it was more skill focused.
Now if you could have actually controlled the tricks, insted of them being dependant on your jump timing at ramps and maybe the direction pressed, and if you could have "wiped out" it might have as well been SSX WITH HOVER-BOARDS, -BIKES AND -ROLLERSKATES!
But before I ramble anymore on how they could have done it better and go completely off-topic, I'll give you a quote:
Also, Classic Sonic shall henceforth be renamed Solidus Sonic. Tails is the Otacon equivalent, Knuckles is your hardnosed commander, and Amy is, of course, Rosemary. Oh, and Bunny Rabbot shows up despite having nothing to do with the game plotlines because hey, we need a cyborg ninja.
Plot twist: In the end, you discover that not only are there several more clones (including one oddly proficient with a guitar), but the Sonic you've been using might not be the ONE TRUE SONIC after all!
"Sonic? Sonic! SOOOOOONIIIIIIIIIIIIIIC!"
I'd totally buy it.

Sonic hates SOPADay one purchase.
You are not alone, and you are not strange. You are you, and everyone has damage. Be the better person.I really don't need to point out it was a joke post, right?
Oh well, better do it anyhow. And I already did.
Sonic hates SOPASo, what classic characters do you guys wanna see come back for this? Fang is a must.
Also I think it'd be pretty interesting to see newer characters be re-imagined in the classic artstyle and vice-versa.
You are not alone, and you are not strange. You are you, and everyone has damage. Be the better person.Frankly, I'd rather they just keep things simple and have just the Sonics and (hopefully) the Eggmen.
Experience has taught me to investigate anything that glows.Robo-Robotnik! like how they do said crossover in the comics!

Apocalypse: Dirge Of Swans.^*9. Wow, that sounds like a great idea! I wonder what kind of handsome eloquent creative humble rogue thought of that... ;-)

YES.
here's an IGN GAMEPLAY preview.
I like that they acknowledge that Sonic Colors and 4 set Sonic on the right course.
Visit my Tumblr! I may say things. The Bureau ProjectIt looks like a big dual sided conglomeration of fun. I don't care if the fans argue over this: I, at least, will enjoy it.

DO WANT
(it amazes me that people still complain)
http://steamcommunity.com/id/Xan-Xan/Different, but for classic 2D Sonic it's exactly the same – or, more accurately, it's exactly the same as you remember it. Sonic's movement seems much less stilted in Generations than it was in Sonic the Hedgehog 4, and gaining and maintaining momentum is a much more satisfying affair.

Visit my Tumblr! I may say things. The Bureau ProjectI hope Fang/Nack returns.
I am completely, utterly, and thoroughly done with Sola Sonica and 2DI don't think Fang was in any of the "defnitive/notable" games. I think he was only in the obscure and mostly forgotten Sonic The Fighters.
Sonic hates SOPAHello, I am Ralph and I am officially sold.
Stargate SG-1 Let's Watch. Because my ZHP thing failed.First of all, I wish that interview was in English.
Second of all, the gameplay looks amazing
Third of all, Modern Sonic's gameplay style reminds me a lot of what The Game Overthinker had proposed in his old video about Sonic's old sucking problem. Particularly the boost button.

The "Sonic Kart" game was Sonic Drift. All the other ones are footraces.
Except Sonic Riders, which isn't.
