...

I had them by Spring Yard Act 3; being able to retry was great.

I’m not good with the better framerate. It actually throws off my reaction time.

I’m actually better with the original Special Stage from Sonic 1 on Genesis.

EDIT: Completed the Story Mode.

Some thoughts:

  • I like some of the little things they added to 3&K, such as how Super Sonic has a full sprite list, different sound effects, or slightly altered scenes.
  • Knuckles is actually more challenging. You can’t just abuse Super Sonic on him like you could in the original.
  • They corrected the “Knuckles pallet glitch”.
  • I don’t mind the prototype tracks, but they sound a bit off.
  • The music isn’t modular, meaning that if you, say, get an extra life, the music starts over as opposed to continuing from where it left off.

I found some tweets about the Sonic Team staff favorite entries and characters. A Spanish user translated it.

Favorite characters:

  • Sonic
  • Tails
  • Shadow
  • Knuckles
  • Silver

Favorite entries:

  • Adventure 2
  • Unleashed
  • The Paramount movie / Forces
  • Adventure 1

Why do they like Silver and Forces is anyone's guess.

People can like things you don't like and not be wrong? And trying to demostrate to people than they are wrong for liking things is rude and obnoxious?

I mean, I liked what Forces did. It had some neat alternate gameplay(though Classic Sonic was meh otherwise as a choice). It had some fun dialogue too.

Silver I honestly loved, and not solely cause I'm a fan of DBZ and Trunks(I didn't even know he was based upon him till quite a bit later). His gameplay was legitimately fun and silly for me, and I found his character arc a logical route for someone who is desperate to save the world. In the end, that arc actually did still pave the way to save the world, as it gave them time travel capabilities, as well as helped gather the Emeralds to truly defeat Iblis Trigger. The unfortunate side effect is he had to basically sacrifice his timeline, and he doesn't survive either, as the Silver from other games is a different one. So he's tragic. Not saying he's well-written either, but I legit liked him. Blaze suffering a similar fate sucked too.

Shadow?

Yet another example of Sega mishandling Sonic Origins like boneheads: We almost had a rewinding feature.

Plus, the mishandling spurred me to do something I've never done until now.

Happened upon a video talking about TV pilots, including differences between early promotional material and the final version of the show. Among the pilots discussed are Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM), Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog & Sonic X. The Sonic material starts at 8:37.

Being able to retry special stages is so nice. It let me get all the chaos emeralds and time stones in Sonic 1, CD, 2, and 3&Ks I was also able to get the Super Emeralds as well.

Mostly the S&K Collection tunes being used for Origins just need a couple more instruments and more kick to its bass. I personally prefer the MJ tunes, but it works.

Carnival Night Zone's stage theme replacements aren't too bad though Ice Cap Zone's replacements seem more suited to Carnival Night or some other casino level.

Cyberspace looks like the only interesting part of the game (Green Hill-looking section notwithstanding).

Though to be fair, and by that same token, cyberspace does look like an interesting part of the game. It actually looks okay.

It's just fucking bizarre that the area that looks like an Unreal Engine tech demo with springs and rails randomly floating everywhere is the real world and the zones that look like the regular Sonic world are virtual.

In regards to the trailer, who is the levitating figure at the end? And why do they have a similar glowing effect to Infinite?

That is SAGE.

Also, we got an official synopsis.

Sonic’s new journey begins when him and his friends – Amy and Tails – head to the Starfall Islands in search of Chaos Emeralds. As they approach the islands, sudden trouble hits their plane, and they are sucked into a dimensional portal. "Sonic then finds himself separated from his friends and awakens in a strange, digital world – Cyber Space. He miraculously escapes Cyber Space and arrives on Kronos Island, one of the Starfall Islands, full of ancient ruins where strange enemies roam. (Via SEGA PR

Does she develop fan games?

Also that design makes the Deadly Six look like series staples.

This is definitely looking better. Still need a demo to get my hands on the gameplay to see how it really feels.

Takashi Iizuka wasn't lying, Sonic won't kiss any humans in this game.

But Infinite did, look at his daughter.
