Personally, I don't think he sounded too bad. He even sounds pretty good in the Sonic Fan Film.No Jaleel White?
GOOD.
I mean GOD was his Sonic annoying. Maybe it was just the writing for AoStH, but I don't think I'd want to put up with an entire game of that.
"Good. The only reason people even like him at all is nostalgia, and nostalgia is an atrocious reason to want him to voice the character. He's the worst actor to ever voice the character, his performance never fit the character. Even the 4kids atrocity did a better job.
This is also an obvious horse crap excuse. They couldn't get him the voice the character, so they made Classic Sonic mute? For one thing I don't recall Jaleel White ever voicing Sonic in any games, so that's a moot point. It's made even more obvious that it's BS as the game is also being developed for a Japanese audience, and I somehow doubt they would cut voice acting just because the "actor" they wanted for the Western release of the title was unavailable. For another, are they bringing back Ryan Drummond for modern Sonic, as he's the one who voiced him in some of the "classic" modern Sonic titles they're including in the game, do turn about on that point is fair play."
Yeah I agree with all the crap about repetitive stage choices including like 3 cities.
Actually, it's Speed Highway, City Escape, Crisis City and Rooftop Run. Four cities.
Now, while Crisis City has the obvious volcano level tropes in play and Sega introduced carnival level tropes to Rooftop Run arbitrarily, I'm not sure if Speed Highway and City Escape are distinct enough from one another to have been good choices.

And now the modern era trailer is up, with glances at even more levels; Crisis City, Rooftop Run, and Planet Wisp. Planet Wisp even has the wisp powers. The music is a mix of Crisis City.
Look different, maybe. Play different, not entirely sure how.Well, City Escape could fit as some kind of Coastline city, while Speed Highway is more of a metropolitan city. So while they're both cities, they look and play much more different than they're made out to be.
So yeah, I have no problem with four city levels, because they at least look and play differently from what I've seen.
I don't count the boss battles.Do destroyed / abandoned cities count? Then we should probably include the ruined Station Square, since that's where the Perfect Chaos battle will probably end up at. That makes five cities!
And then there's Starlight Speedway. And we might do battle with Silver in some picturesque metropolitan cafe. And the Space Colony ARK probably had a lot of people living in it at one time. So we most definitely have (at least!) EIGHT CITY LEVELS...
