But yeah, that facebook poll Sonic 2 talked about earlier was disturbing. Did they actually release that trailer just so people could decide what Sonic model was in the game? Or was it as big as a gameplay and storyline change too? Why not include both if that's the case?
Maybe they're wanting to see which is more well liked so they'll know what more to give us in the future? I mean, "Sonic Generations" always had Retro Sonic if the trailer is any indication, but the poll is to determine who we really love the most.
I'm glad to see old Nike Smiler getting a good what's for in the poll, regardless if the game is good or not, either way. For SEGA to see which is more aesthetically pleasing (please rid of that anime human in a mascot costume you've had for over a decade already) is the icing on this cake my group is eating. After Sonic 4, this is pleasing to see. Now let's hope the three years in development gives us an incredible game. This time, they don't have a Werehog, a sword, the power of teamwork, or monsters and they've been working on this title for 3 YEARS. How can I not expect the best out of this game?
Because my feelings for the franchise are getting in the way of course, obviously. If I was to think about this realistically, even with the development time, this is still Sega. However, this also isn't Dimps developing the game (I hope!). The trailer was incredibly vague to begin with with possible hints at the anniversary to come but we just don't know. I mean, the lack of a developer logo is beyond vague. Unless, it really is another studio working on the game and it just so happens to be Artoon. No one I hope has forgotten that eventful beer induced meetup with Iizuka, Naka, and Oshima, right? Of course, this is speculation, but the sudden (though admittedly already known appearance) of classic Sonic seems to fuel the idea that Oshima and Naka just might be involved.
