I am sure I will like the game, but after how Sonic 4 turned out so horrible I am not as certain.
Should be getting it sometime this week. Do not really care when I get it, just am tired of people spoiling so many details for me now. Kind of weird, I used to be the one who spoiled Sonic games for people!
When I get my copy of the game, the first thing I am doing is letting my mother play it without telling her anything that has happened with the series since the 90s (She does not know of any of the Shadow stuff for instance). Because she has not really played any kind of console videogame at all since like... 1995 I think it would be a good example of a child's first impression on the game. She is also a teacher, so she understands them better than probably everyone here.
I know that already sounds like a stupidly large amount of thought is being put into the eventual review I am going to make, but I know pretty much everything about the franchise now and I am too critical to details like "Sonic should not be able to swim".
...I also cannot wait for this game to be out already so we can just move on to talking about other SEGA games already.
