actually they were like, the worst selling sonic games ever

which doesn't mean a whole lot, because even games like '06 sell disgustingly, ludicrously well, but it still is worth mentioning.

Either way, the Boom franchise as a whole is doing super well, so the games are gonna keep coming

Hehe, great minds etc. etc.? Petah posted the youtube video on just the last page!

I haven't really played a sonic game to completion since that super duper edgy *gasp so cool* (barf) Shadow game in 2005. I played Unleashed briefly when my brother had it, but just for like an hour.

I have seen plenty of videos of Sonic Boom, and read reviews of everything since 2005 to tell me I haven't missed much. :/

Everyone loved Sonic Generations, it was easily the best Sonic game in years alongside Sonic Colors. And I'm not saying it over nostalgia, I'm saying it over the fact the game was very fun to play.

I love the Chao Garden in SA2. They need to bring that back.

Unleashed, Colors, Generations, and Lost World were all really good games.

it's just still cool to shit on sonic games in reviews

You are in fact only half accurate on that regard. The Day Stages were really good. The Night? Not so much. Also Chip takes an automatic -10% away from that game on my own personal docket so yeah.

i don't know which version you played but the 360/PS3 version's night stages were actually pretty fun, since it was bodaciously just god of war

the biggest problem i had with them was the puzzle platforming bits because that slowed everything down and just felt bad, but the majority of the stages were pretty fun and the fighting felt really good

Weren't the Day stages one of the first instances of "Boost To Win" that everyone hates in Sonic games?

I remember Jim Sterling was the only person to give Colors a bad review while he was at Destructoid and SEGA sent a huge Sonic Colors poster to his house

Then they sent a review copy to another site with a humorous picture of Jim taped to the front

no, you're basically wrong on both points

the boost was introduced in sonic rush, which came out in 2005

rush, and rush adventure, were such wildly successful games due to the boost mechanic (amazingly, it turned out that when people bought sonic games they liked going very fast) that sega eventually decided to put it into the 3D sonic games with unleashed.

now, how i like to think of it is that since the boost might not be well received in 3D (it was), sega decided to put in the werehog stages and see which one people liked more, boost or platforming. everyone liked boost (amazingly, it turned out that when people bought sonic games they liked going very fast) so it became basically the standard for sonic games. amazingly, it turned out that when people bought sonic games they liked going very fast.

Welp, that was an interesting surprise, can't believe Sega are going to let some of the most well-respected fans of the Sonic Retro community take a crack at making an official Sonic game, can't wait to see the results.
