Sonic Frontiers has won over Japan after years of poor sales.
Sonic Adventure 2 is seeing more players on Steam than ever before thanks to the theatrical release of the Sonic 3 movie.
Huh, it's almost like they should try listening to fans that have asked for a new one over the last two decades... At this point, I've given up hope though honestly. Saw a lot of people loving Frontiers, but I could not get into it. It just felt so generic with the world and level designs. The thing I loved about the franchise was that each level felt unique with the colors, design, music, etc.
Also, don't you have to get a mod to even run this above 30 FPS on Steam? I recall someone on YouTube playing this for the first time and having a hard time getting things working. Sucks that such a beloved game is treated poorly.
SA2 was only good as Sonic. Knuckles levels were pure disaster.
SA1 was a far better game.
I actually liked the robotnik levels least of all. Knuckles wasn't too bad cause of the music lol.
I agree the knuckle levels were the worst part of the game. It broke the flow of the gameplay and the music was off for a sonic game. It felt like those knuckle levels were made by a different dev.
The Sonic and tails levels, however, were awesome. The multiplayer mode was interesting and my brother and I spent hours

Still have SA2 Battle. Those Knuckles & Rouge stages aged very poorly but I still have fun with all the other character stages. Shame Sega doesn't seem interested. I can't imagine fans were clamoring for a mediocre Colors port over either SA game being ported.
i still have it for gamecube ps3 and ps4 haha.
good game, but chaannky. or the camera is anyways
It's like most devs will never actually atleast try to deliver a fan favorite title. Simpsons hit&run remake or sequel, bully 2, new sonic adventures title, another thoroughly made good batman singeplayer titles. Smh the list goes on
Ewwww 3D Sonic. Should be playing a good Sonic game. Heck even Sonic Spinball over that trash.

The combat is good. But the open world is shit. Feels like a game where they had a good foundation but didn't know what to use it for.
Might be a hot take, but it's a lot like Sonic Frontiers. Good idea, but terrible use of open world.
It was good imo. Magic system and combat were very good. World traversal is some of the best I've played. Writing can be lacking but there's a lot of humour in it. I've always said this'll be a days gone situation where people only appreciate it when it's given away 'free'. The hate mostly seems to be from people who haven't even played it
Totally agree with your comment. The gameplay was fun, the graphics are decent, the story is lacking but there is some humor. Most folks that were dissing the game didn't even play it.
I actually liked Forspoken and had fun all the way til the Platinum trophy was achieved.
I really liked it. Going in with low expectations, I was surprised to find a game I enjoyed. Traversal is a blast and I thought the combat was fun. The writing was a bit cringe in places, but I play games, it's a rare thing to get great writing and it didn't spoil it for me. I think plenty people will have more fun than they expect once they can try for free...but you need to get a couple of hours into it. If you can make it through that fud, your good!
There's a few in here I've wanted to try but not quite taken the plunge on.
I'm curious about Sonic, have wanted F.I.S.T. , Would try Coffee Talk and Phogs. Maybe even give WRC a try.
Pleased with this selection now.
forspoken haha.
but i might play it as long as its available.
ps2 classics are good.
Switch owners can take advantage of the latest SEGA / Atlus sale on the eShop for June 2024, which includes the lowest price ever for Sonic Frontiers. A bunch of other titles are also discounted.
For someone like me that started playing games at late 90s it was heartbreaking to see what happened to SEGA. Good to hear this because how things were going in the last years for them. I remember the time when they closed a lot of arcades in Japan. Or even when Microsoft almost bought them several years ago.
I have a feeling the sales will drop a ton the next week since everyone figured out it's barebones and a technical mess. Hype and name brand can only get you so far.
I wanted to like this game but they did everything possible to disappoint. Maybe they can use this as a stepping stone for a future title, but so far this isn't it.
