[QUOTE=chipsnapper2;52490089]Wait, Forces is on PC at launch?
When do the Generations level ports begin?[/QUOTE]
After they find out the differences between the Hedgehog Engine and the Hedgehog Engine 2 and do all the obligatory model ports that replace Sonic with literally every other character in the franchise.
I highly doubt Sega will officially support mods, especially workshop, but it would be cool if they [i]accidentally[/i] left blank level slots in the files for people to add levels onto the game rather than having to replace the base stages.
[QUOTE=RikohZX;52490171]When people crack open a new version of the Hedgehog Engine, which majorly depends on how different or similar it is to Generations and Lost World.[/QUOTE]
Hoping they make it easy to mod. Knowing Sonic Team and Sega, they'll encourage it
I don't actually hate Infinite, I think it's about time Sonic had a new villain that had somerthing big going on, and it's not a bad thing that this Sonic story has a menacing threat or stakes. The presentation in the cutscenes also seems to be a sharp improvement over the flat presentation of Colours, Gens and Lost World's cutscenes.
Even if you do think this is edgy that's the least of Forces' issues, lol...even the music took a hit in this one. Infinite's theme, just like the rest of the soundtrack we've heard thus far is just irritating and bad. This direction they're taking with the franchise with gameplay and music is so embarassing.
Though, none of that will matter once Sonic Mania comes out and influences the franchise for the better. August 15th can't come quicker.

Careful not to cut yourself watching this trailer[/QUOTE]
Well that was actually uncomfortable to watch.
[QUOTE=Durrsly;52489073]Aside from 4 and the Bioware RPG I can't think of a bad Sonic soundtrack.[/QUOTE]
I actually like the StarDust Speedway remix in 4 :pudge:
[QUOTE=BrandoJack;52489038]
The lyrics sound like they're taking cues from Shadow the H[B]edgehog's[/B] soundtrack for the enemy's theme.
I actually liked the soundtrack to that game, so I'm not complaining.[/QUOTE]
Ok, who's idea was to hire scout to sing non-rap part? :v:
Pretty good song tbh. Far better than main theme imo.
Btw Jun is on the guitars

So what's their good and their bad for reference sake?
Man I really don't like Infinite. I didn't think it'd be possible to out-edge Shadow.

As someone who used to fervently read the MLP comics back in the day, the writing and art quality varied wildly from issue to issue. Some of the plotlines were even better than the show while others felt like Wattpad tier fanfiction.
Working with some new synths and working on mixing electronic music (i don't have much experience in that realm) along with trying to work with more midi based instruments and digital synths. Decided to start easy by 'remixing' some Sonic music. Based on a sequence I found online, worked on for a few hours. Would love some criticism;

My current process of going through this is making more room for instruments to come up or down, right now, for the most part, it's all sitting in one spot. I'm trying to make room for each instrument to come up and down, to give everything proper space without it sounding too cluttered.

I really hope they've been able to obtain rights for archie's characters.
The holiday 2017 release date for forces does make me a bit nervous. Since 06 and boom both had holiday releases. Sega seems to really commit to those release dates, even if it means releasing a game that needs more polish.
Actually, has sega ever delayed a sonic game?

Mania has been delayed 1 or 2 times.
What even classifies an adventure game? Ten playable characters with only 3 minutes of playtime for the lead character Sonic?

No but seriously where's my chao garden and/or Neo Metal Sonic
Fuck they could just give us back the Chao garden and I would be happy.

Legit surprised it hasn't been done as a mobile app, tbh. That could be popular.

afaik
* At least 4 playable characters providing subjective, alternative, self-serving and contradictory versions of the same incident
* Chao Garden

[quote]Sonic Mania was originally named “Sonic Discovery” during it’s early development stages
When Sonic Mania was first pitched to Iizuka-san in early 2016, a working demo was already playable featuring Studiopolis Zone
Iizuka-san came up with the phrase “By the Mania, for the Mania”
Many different story narratives were discussed for Mania, including a defeated Eggman retiring, while his machines form their own gang in the Hard Boiled Heavies
The Sonic CD-like special stage was revealed, which sees the player chase a UFO
The special stage music track “Dimension Heist” was played
Sonic Mania will feature sprite cut scenes, a la Sonic 3 & Knuckles
Sonic Mania will feature an opening animation by Tyson Hesse, and will be revealed on August the 14th
Aaron Webber stated no Super Emeralds will feature in the game, following an audience question
Attendees at the panel received a free “Introduction manual”, in the style of the 32X instruction manuals, detailing game story, developer profiles and new sketch-hog art by Tyson Hesse[/quote]

aka Sonic Mania is the TRUE Sonic the Hedgehog 4.
"and their newest ally, Knuckles the Echidna"
Sonic Mania & Knuckles?
(Following text is based on the discussion from the another forum)
So... let's talk about Infinite's theme. Some of you probably know that almost always lyrics of the vocal themes in sonic games are based on the actual stuff we see in the game. So what can we see from the Infinite theme song?
First 4 lines:
[QUOTE]
"I'm the tallest of mountains" = Zavok
"I am the roughest of waves" = Chaos
"I'm the toughest of terrors" = Metal Sonic
"I am the darkest of days" = Shadow the Hedgehog
[/QUOTE]
He says that everyone in his "team" is actually him? (They are some kind of illusions?)
And this:
[QUOTE]"This is an illusion, open up your eyes"
"So look around you and tell me what you really see"
"You live a lie"[/QUOTE]
Basically everything what's happening in the game is illusion? (sounds plausible because we see a lot of "glitches" surrounding Infinite and everyone who is associated with him)
Honestly with the glitchiness that Chaos exhibited in the background and Shadow's weird eyes, myself and others have been theorizing that Infinite is really an illusion master and Shadow isn't actually evil again, they're just duplicates. It's honestly not even subtle, which raises a question as to what the hell happened for Eggman's world conquering and how much is time-related or illusion-related.
