Sonic Runners was announced at the last one so I'm just curious if y'all have heard any rumours and the like
-
Wonder if we'll see a teaser for the next Sonic game?
-
I predict disappointment.
-
Think all they announced was a concert next year celebrating the 25th anniversary of Sonic and Jun performed Sonic Adventure stuff plus new characters in Mario & Sonic.
-
Mario? He'll never catch on...
;)

There was a lot of neat stuff we will probably never hear anything about. There was apparently a Q&A, and one of the fans asked Sonic Team what their next project is. Too bad we'll never know the answer. They also apparently talked about 25th anniversary a bit and shared the logo.
There was a few announcements. The biggest ones in my opinion though are the SEGA Symphonic Concert announcement for July 2016, Sonic Adventure Music Experience Concert for April 2nd.
and then the event ended with Jun Senoue playing open your heart

SEGAnerds has a pretty good article summarizing the event with a load of pictures

As it's an anniversary, I wonder if we'll see a remake...

Sonic Runners 2: Attack of the Eggbots?

A tease of a new non mobile game would be nice...

Hopefully a picture pops up soon. You know how much people love green-eyed Sonic.

Concert announcement? Any idea what locations? I'd love to check one out.
-
oohh lordy
SEGA have been promoting a lot of classic sonic mercy recently? I have a feeling they might be making a sonic maker game... I hope its just a normal one like generations
-
Classic Sonic?
Could it be? :)

That whole 'green eyes' melt down a few years ago was about the lamest, most second hand embarrassing thing I've ever had the displeasure of witnessing.
Sonic has had green eyes longer than he didn't at this point, it adds a splash of colour to the character design and I think it's a nice addition personally. But that's beside the point... Anyone who cares that much about what colour iris Sonic has needs to get their life together.

Don't understand how that even became a thing really.
It was cool to see the original Sonic in Generations, but it also showed how dated it would look.

Personally I like classic sonic's evolution during the saturn era the most. Think of sonic jam and sonic the fighers(also capsule toys in shenmue). Perfection imo
-
They released this Sonic figure a couple years ago and I think this is probably the best design for him I've seen... I think it's a best of both worlds look... And I think the Sonic Runners model is pretty close to this:

I don't care about Sonic's design, I'm more concerned with Sonic during that year. We don't know what that Sonic 25th Anniversary game is gonna be like (though personally that "going back to roots" statement doesn't give me confidence), and all we have to fall back on are yet another mediocre Sonic & Mario game and another Sonic Boom game that we know so little about.
Frankly, stuff like is why I'm more interested in the Puyo Puyo 25th Anniversary next year.

indeed it is. What makes it good imo is because he looks well proportionate. Im a lot more at peace with modern sonic than I used to during the sonic 4 debacle, but if theres one thing that always stood out to me it was never the eyes, but it was the overall lankyness(if thats the right word) and how huge his head was starting to look with the quills getting bigger and bigger. For some reason especially in sonic 4 it didnt look right (http://www.gameinformer.com/cfs-filesystemfile.ashx/__key/CommunityServer-Components-UserFiles/00-00-25-20-17-Attached+Files/1018.sonic4sonicrunavatarb.gif) to me. While in the 3d games it doesnt stand out that much.
While im fine with whatever, these are just my thoughts. Overall a great game is all I ask for, any other detail would just be extra
-
I think they got his design pretty great in Sonic Colours, Generations and Lost World... At the very least it was inoffensive. If Sonic Runners model is anything to go by they seem to be heading towards that Sonic Toy model.
The worst designs were the Sonic Adventure DX, Heroes, Shadow and Sonic 06 era... That whole time frame was an ugly mess.

This is my personal favorite look for Sonic; I know he looked nothing like this in the game itself, but this style displayed on the boxart I think suits him the best.
That said, I also realize that this look might seem a little bit dated today....but that's why character design evolves/changes over time. That's why I never understood this large portion of the Sonic community who complains that Sonic needs to look like how he did on the Genesis. Sonic's design changed with the times, as should all characters.
I'm with Sharky in that I really don't care much, lol.
-
Put my vote in the "doesn't care" category. I prefer a look closer to classic but as long as it's not the man in a suit we got for 06, I'm good.
-
I wouldn't say I don't care as such - the boom designs look awful. But, it is low on my list. Classic Sonic on generations was nice, but like I said, it did look dated. He seemed podgy. That Saturn design looks about right though.
