Not enough want it.REGULAR FEATURES CLASSIC SONIC EXPERIENCEĮnjoy the nostalgic gameplay of the classic Sonic the Hedgehog games. Try to be fresh, capture a spark, subvert, surprise. That's the template, there's the rules, this is what people know, what they've learned, these are the cliches, tropes, this is what is generic, obvious. But the same applies to Nintendo with F-Zero. Somehow just making 2D Sonic wasn't enough, and it still isn't is it? Kids will play anything anyway so I guess it's just the malfunctioned Sega execs who are dictating things. This is high tech 16 bit goodness, Sonic is faster than the rest by one hundred thousand and fifty. Moooree, kids want sparkling new things, always out of reach, the tantalizing screenshots in magazines, the glorious box art in Argos catalogue, the £50 price you didn't know your parents couldn't afford. Developers who didn't fret with the existential crisis of making games. Simpler times when culture was condensed and left its mark on each decade. New game, new game, new play-ey play play. New levels guaranteed ! After just a year as well ! A whole year ! Feels like forever. I'm.7 (not now, then).new Sonic, new Sonic ! No fuss. Oh incoming garbage switch off switch off save your sanity. Staring into nothingness while at work.oh Gunstar Heroes, that game was soo good.Īs for 2D Mario, dunno, I blank out most videogames as I do adverts. And now nostalgia is mined because people went 20 years suffering the worst of Sonic and now it's returned in repackaged form acting as some kind of soul cleanser, but I am immune to being reunited after a long time like that because all the classics in the 90s have been stored in my brain quite close by. So Sonic went of into new realms of awfulness which could be dressed up as.nope, just awful. It's not hard is it ? You can't build that without committing to it. So that's me all stoked up, rejuvenated by the explosion of creative ideas, could it be that the sheer consumption of this awesomeness means I am now even more excited by the next zone? It could be! Just what will the next zone bring? I just don't know! It's established its creative awesomeness to such a degree I don't think I can take the suspense! I am just dieing to find out ! Oh look at that plant what does it do.omg, oh look is that a sli.yes it is, where is it taking me, am I entering a wha.hang on wait what is that thing firing at me.that's not a thing.is that a car what happens if i step inside.where does this pole lead.what are they, let me use my spinner on at the dizzying array of flickering lights, twirling sunflowers, zippy bouncy patterns.gonna smash that glass.oh in silhouette cool, BAUBLES THEY'RE SO SHINY.is that crab a friend of foe.I don't want to climb on his back to get across the purple lava, die tyrannical robotic arm.oh fairies.penetrating my skin.now eating my insides.Īnd that was just one zone. This is excitement summed up: oh wow a new zone, what will it bring. It's an issue because it defeats the whole point of videogames for me. So are they adding new gameplay ideas to the classic themes or just tweaking the flow and structure of your route to the end ? If they were deconstructing the classics and really taking them elsewhere in an attempt to surprise that'd be great, but from what I've seen they're being respectful. They're completely new level designs with new gimmicks and enemies in them aren't they? Not sure what people are upset about, 2D Mario games have the same themes for their levels too. The classic levels are just classic themes.
