It's her turn now

The original team sonic is back

Her Classic incarnation was always out of focus compared to Sonic, Knuckles and Tails. Her only appearance in the main games was in Sonic CD and there she did nothing but get kidnapped by Metal Sonic. She was only playable in the spinoff titles like Sonic The Fighters. But that seems to be changing now.

She's also supposedly gonna be playable in Frontiers Wave 3 Story campaign!

I feel like they should take knuckles out of the main cast and replace him with Amy. Then it would just be sonic, tails, and Amy. The ACTUAL team.

can we acknowledge his impressive jaw line

It was Santiago, this is sonic

@@yobrosonan1082 You can tell this is the REAL Sonic because he actually shows emotion and doesn’t control as bad as Santiago.

That was mainly in forces, in generations, classic had some times where he was incredibly expressive

@@yobrosonan1082 What do you mean? Sonic went on vacation after being missing for years , his little cousin Sean is filling in and is doing a Great job.

and also some artwork of sonic the hedgehog (1991) actually does shows him in a lighter shade of blue :p

it's printing reasons. cmyk is horrible for blue

@@beesree39 I see!

Ohh, wait, that's really cool! ^^ Thanks for the info!

Sonic frontiers final horizons: *makes a serious comment about this shit bosses* ...uh oh

@@tsyumamatsuthehavenofguard32 no one enjoys those bosses.. except the first one but uhhh

The amount of money I would pay for a MegaMan x/zero anime is incredibly large

@@angelkurbai5112 I WOULD BE RIGHT THERE I WANT THAT SO BADLY

@@angelkurbai5112 I don't see how that relates to what i was saying but true, though i wish they actually finished that ZX anime they showed off in a trailer instead

Megaman 11 is in the top 3 best games in Megaman history

I'd say 11 still looked a tad toyetic, and not in an intentional way like Link's Awakening HD. I think what makes this look so pretty in comparison to say NSMB or even Megaman 11 is that 3D models seems to restrict expressiveness and implied texture that the characters would normally have being drawn sprites with heavily direction and intention in every frame, and this game seems to want to animate this Sonic with a lot of reciprocated motion, weight, and warmth. You get the sense that a lot of companies in the 2010s did 3D because the model itself was easy to work with, but implementing squash and stretch, more detailed expressions, or messing with frame pacing kind of goes against the whole point of using said 3D model in the first place, though something completely hand drawn like Cuphead would still be massively more time consuming so it still feels kind of cheap that a lot of those 2.5D platformers were so light on those details. But then again, even the most pretty and well animated 2D platformers stuggle to justify to the greater market the increased price tag that comes with it, at least compared to a cinematic AAA action game, even though I personally see the merit.

hes been doing that for a while, can be seen in his old rotmg videos

Cringe worthy too

​@@lukemorgan6166 get off bikuribox dick bro you hating on every video 😭 he dont even know you

You're so right, and it's cool to see someone else share the same opinion on Fang. How Sega let a design like his go to waste is a complete mystery to me... I'm hoping the best thing that can come out of this classic Sonic renaissance is another invested era of multiple genres and included characters. We need a new Sonic R, if not Riders. We need a new fighting game, whether 3D or 2D. We need Sonic to be adventurous again.

fang land? cmon. i like him but he's not that good

​You've missed the point completely. The point I'm trying to make is that Fang was so underutilised despite his untapped potential, that he faded into obscurity just as hard as any other one-off character, like Ray, Bean, Bark or even Johnny. He HAD staying power, yet Sonic Team never capitalised on it. The only reason you're saying he's "not that good" is because Sega and Sonic Team never LET HIM be "that good". When Shadow starred in his own game, they gave him guns and vehicles, forgetting the fact that they already had a character who fit the same purpose (not to mention, Fang's airbike and gun are stylised to better suit Sonic games). Where Sonic Team created a surface-level "mature" game full of edgy cringe and disjointed gameplay mechanics and ideas pulled in all different directions, Fang could've been the perfect character for a more over-the-top and fun action game that encouraged players to revel in the carnage they cause. I mentioned Johnny before, but he's a redundant character with no staying power, and yet another example of Sonic Team creating more characters that fit the same purpose as the ones that came before. Old game manuals mention Fang hailing from another dimension, so why not make that the Sol Dimension? And have him duke it out with Sonic like old times? That IS how he was introduced after all; a boss standing in the way of Sonic and the emeralds. No matter how you look at it, Fang could've been so much more. It really isn't hard to imagine him being Sega's Wario, in a timeline where Sega's management was much better. Wario's a greedy villain introduced in a mainline handheld Mario game, who'd later star in his own series of games and become a mainstay among Nintendo's many franchises. Is Fang not also a greedy villain who was introduced in a mainline handheld Sonic game? In a parallel world, he would absolutely star in his own Fang Land games. Hopefully now that I've provided all this context, you understand what I mean.

He’s back with a new name

It was never needed but it would be neat

​@thatitalianlameguy2235 "It was never needed" This is a CLASSIC Sonic game, that gameplay style is what started the *entire* Sonic franchise in the first place. Modern Sonic may not need that gameplay style a whole lot, but Classic Sonic DEFINITELY needs it everytime. I'm just making a point here.

Does Colors count because it is mostly 2D soooooo…

@@FireLightLion No, it's not FULLY 2D.

​@@thatitalianlameguy2235 Nah, it was. Mania was the last 2D Sonic game and Mania itself was the first 2D Sonic game in like 10 years to play well. Sonic 4 played exactly like generations classic Sonic (slow as hell). Besides that, they've been stuck developing 3D Sonic games that are increasingly just worse 2D Sonic games as Sega cuts more and more of the "3d gameplay" from their 3D Sonic games. Unleashed was the last game with 3D gameplay imo, Generations onward is 99% 2D for the boost games. I actually think Sonic Lost World played significantly better than Generations onward, but its Achilles heel is overlong frustrating level design that doesn't take advantage of Sonic's speed. (Which in part foreshadowed Sega's future plans- every game after Lost World seems to maintain the lie that Sonic the Hedgehog is a character who can run really really fast, which gets harder and harder to believe the more we see him running at a snail's pace even with boost in every game).

Headcanon are apparently not working with SEGA anymore so a Mania followup seems incredibly unlikely

Good news, there is a page now! There has been for a while so I don't know if you know or not, but I figured it'd help to bring it up just in case.

Sonic 3&K is a masterpiece. It's definitely one of the best if not the best 2D platformer.

It's not made by sonic team

Unfortunately the boss themes are still you know IN THIS GAME

I always was surprised with how quality his realm content videos were, and personally I loved them, but I'm really glad he's getting the recognition he deserves with content he is also excited to make. :) It's awesome.

it'll go on sale plenty, all sonic games do

@@scrunkore I know but that's just a bit steep imo

Not really all too steep when that was the price of games 20 years ago. The industry forgot that inflation was a thing so all games are pretty cheap compared to where they would be if they kept up with inflation.

@flango348 ik a lot of non sonic fans that are calling the price for that steep because of nature of the game. I understand your point but it is a steep price

really. why can it be an option?

i expect for them to do the same thing that was done with Crash 4, that you can choose if your playthrough will need extra lives or have no lives system at all

personally I don't think games really need lives these days but it does feel good getting them

@@scrunkore whether or not if we need them, why not hve the option

@@scrunkore No save runs are really fun, seeing how far you can get with just lives and continues if you earn them

Superstars would overshadow Mania because it doesn’t do the easy way out for returning stages no matter the remix ones.

You Sonic fans are the worst human beings on the planet

Not everyone would hire someone that are honestly green.

@@mazkeraid4039 I have no idea what that means

@@Jeff-te2cc Basically as a beginner.

@@mazkeraid4039 hey he killed it with Sonic Mania though

But IMO, I would have loved to see Amy in her fleetway white shirt and green skirt design. Maybe even change her hairstyle to have it up.

That's true, I'm pretty glad it's not another Mania type game where they rehash a lot of old elements.
