That'd be lovely. He's a great character overall. Excellent voice actor and lines. Sure, the story is a bit meh(and confusing), but I found it overall fun and added more depth to Shadow's character. The explanation for suddenly having Chaos powers doesn't feel entirely farfetched, though him being part-alien is kind of odd(though I didn't mind it overall).

Shadow?

Any cover by Penny Parker is absolute gold.

Chaos powers didn't exist before Shadow...

Chaos powers aren't even explained since Devil Doom is essentially a super form.

More cutscenes and gameplay from the Demo.

Highlights include the first Titan cutscene (Sonic is destroyed), two more cyberspace levels(Chemical plant and Radical Highway), another act of Green Hill(like generations?), cutscene with ghost amy(can't read the dialogue), and Eggman in cyberspace(short).

Oh boy another level we've already seen in Generations and Forces. At least Radical Highway only got the 3DS version of Generations but if the rest of Cyberspace is just "Lol we got lazy and did levels we already did in gens" then that kinda kills my interest.

I'm keeping my expectations low for Frontiers. I am hoping that this will be the consensus at a minimum: "The level designs and gameplay were 'meh' but the story was surprisingly engaging."

The City Level in Sonic Frontiers...

Just that, it exists.

It’s interesting that the Highway Stage is called Radical Highway, seeing as it looks nothing like Radical Highway.

I’ll have to check later to see if the layout is the same as Generations, though (though from memory, I don’t think so - it looks new). I see people are saying that’s the case for Green Hill.

Maybe they finally resorted to just reusing names.

Can't have a Tyrannical Highway or a Ferocious Speedway.

Tyrannical Highway sounds DOPE.

Sounds like something out of a Bad Future, or maybe an evil mirror dimension.

@FOFD: They've been doing that as early as Sonic Heroes. That game's Rail Canyon shares its name with a Tails Sky Patrol level.

I'd have loved a "Hazardous Highway", or a "Sinister Speedway".

Title's supposed to link to Hero Without a Class: Who Even Needs Skills?! but that just breaks the title instead. -_-

OK, so think about this. Escape From the City, but its Stardust Speedway and the truck is Metal.

[up][up] Don't know if anyone mentioned yet but people have been exploiting a bug with the save states so they can progress much farther in the game than intended. That's why we have so many leaks [lol]

Also guess who's back?

I think kingdom hearts had already claimed the former (grant for a bgm piece but still)

More cutscenes!

  • Sonic saving Amy. - What's curious is that Amy does get freed...but is still ghost-y. Even more remarkable, some have noticed that this is probably the longest conversation Sonic and Amy had with each other in the games since some time. Here's the conversation for anyone needing to squint:
    Amy: Sonic! Are you all right?
    Sonic: Me? You're the one who's only half here.
    Amy: I feel fine. But that energy that was holding me prisoner went into you!
    Sonic: Eh, I've been infused with weird zappy stuff before. Besides, I feel like it gave me some kind of boost!
    Amy: Well... In that case, we need to get moving. If I was trapped, I'm sure Tails was too!
    Sonic: Good call. I'll scout ahead and find you later. Deal? (Sonic zips away)
    Amy: Deal! Be careful! (Sonic shows up again)
    Sonic: "Careful?" Where's the fun in that?

  • Eggman in cyberspace. - The dialogue might be a bit hard to make out, but here it is: "I appear to be in a digital dimension. I've employed similar constructs in my own systems, but this is markedly more advanced. Note to self: don't admit that to anyone." [lol]

And hello? We got sound recordings for Sonic, the female voice guiding him, music, and sound effects! from the game!

Oooh, the voice, music and sound direction really is a far cry from what we got in Sonic Forces. surprised

Huh. Do they pitch up Roger's voice for Sonic usually, with those lines being pre-edit? Or is Sonic's voice just going to be deeper this time around.
