All they need to do is go back to what it was like but add better story elements to it

As I've said basing it off the Sonic Comics would work.

From a fast brown Hedgehog to a super fast, red trainer wearing blue hedgehog. It shows you how Robotnik became evil and why Sonic decides to stop him.

Plus Amy actually was better developed back then, she got involved more and could defend herself.

I really don't know what Sega can do to bring back Sonic. They tried brining him back to his roots but that failed just as the article suggested, poor level design and bad gameplay. The rest were all gimmicks poorly executed, so my only suggestion would be to FIRE Team Sonic.

If Mario can venture off into new gameplay areas and still be successful with spin offs after spin offs then that shows a true testament to the developing power of the Mario team at Nintendo. There is no reason why Sonic shouldn't have the same success in all his games and spin off.

Sonic & All Stars Racing Transformed needs a sequel. I mean did it really do that bad that Sega dropped all support for consoles? I mean the PC version got a bunch of updates including extra characters why couldn't they port that over to the consoles? It's a shame because my friends and I play that game religiously, it's the closest to Mario Kart we have.

2008-2011 they had a working formula. Sonic Unleashed,Sonic Colors, and Sonic Generation was not sonic's roots at the core (Sonic Adventure is more true to the 2D Genesis games) but fans loved it and it was fun. Then they screwed around with it in Lost World and Shat on it with sonic Boom

Make it a requirement for workers to play Sonic 1-3 and Sonic Adventure 1 & 2.

StormLegend3764d ago

Keep releasing games like Generations, Allstars transformed and Unleashed, and they should be good!

LightDiego3764d ago

Now Sonic will be a mobile game only? That's awful.

The 7 Best Sonic the Hedgehog Games: Racing through Time

Sonic the Hedgehog has a long and turbulent history in videogames, but which are the best games featuring the blue bur?

Rebel_Scum494d ago

Generations over Mania? Please… Generations doesnt have any new ideas in the levels/bosses.

Also a top 7 of Sonic games shouldn’t have any 3D crap and contain at least one of the 8-bit titles.

Sonic CD getting snubbed is weird. Number 1 is definitely interchangable between Sonic 2 and Sonic 3 & Knuckles.

Snookies12494d ago

Nothing wrong with putting Generations over Mania. Generations had a lot more to it. Mania was just a bit too short, despite how amazing it was. They're both top-tier Sonic games though.

Profchaos494d ago (Edited 494d ago )

I don't think mania was to short given 1,2,3, knuckles were between 1 and 3 hours long.

Mania was 5 hours roughly

However i say the originals feel more repayable because they are so short

Profchaos494d ago (Edited 494d ago )

The 8 bit games were pretty bad overall do you mean the 16 bit ones

Rebel_Scum494d ago

Nope. Sonic 1 & 2 on the master system were great. Dont confuse these with the game gear versions either.

Profchaos494d ago

Top 7 for me
7 cd
6 mania
5 Frontiers
4 sonic 3
3 sonic 1
2 sonic and knuckles
1 sonic 2

persona4chie494d ago

Sometimes I feel like the Sonic Advanced games just didn’t exist with how much it’s always forgotten 😭

Chocoburger493d ago

Even as a Sonic fan, I didn't really care for those games, and getting the Chaos Emeralds were freakin' horrible. Even with an emulator and save states, I didn't have the desire to try. I also didn't like most of the levels or bosses either. Unfortunately, DiMPs aren't good at making Sonic games.

Mario Kart is only available on Nintendo. Where do gamers on other platforms go? Here's the 7 best Mario Kart clones for other formats.

Rebel_Scum586d ago

Speed freaks on the PSX was a really good one.

Nerdmaster586d ago

Chocobo GP had potencial to be a worthy competitor, but Square Enix just couldn't help itself from ruining it with bad monetization. Still fun to run a couple of races from time to time, though.

Kneetos585d ago

Still sad we haven't gotten a new mod nation racers from Sony in a hot minute

I played that more then MKWii for a while.
