At who is SEGA/Sonic team aiming to get attention from? The "Old" Sonic fans, or the "New" Sonic fans?
Calling this "Sonic 4" without bringing what made the previous games so great, and completely missing the point of what is a "Classic" game is enough just to consider this a "slap in the face", like Tentril said. If this is supposed to be a direct sequel from Sonic3&K, I'd like at least some continuity and the new content like what each game brought. They hyped us a lot, calling this to be a game that would bring Sonic "back to the roots" - But they really didn't do that. It's just another Sonic Rush or whatever you want to call it, but it's not a "Classic" sequel.
Preposterous.
I'm not ungrateful- I'm upset. Because we already got a game like that.
You know what did homing attack well? Sonic 3D Blast. Despite the terrible flickies mechanic that didn't let me enjoy it as I'd like to have, that was done right.
There's something wrong with SEGA, it looks as though as if it hates Classic Sonic - Or can't get money without having to resort to the new Sonic fans.
It goes even faster? Great. Just what you'd expect from a Next Gen Sonic game.
