I watched all of the 25th Anniversary party last night, and I have never been glued to my monitor for four hours much like last night. They did all sorts of activities such as Q&A, clips of Sonic Boom season 2, and a costume contest. But, the real meat of the matter are the two big game reveals. I got to see the crowd go nuts for Sonic Mania, and then die of a heart attack on the Project '17 trailer.
What's my thoughts?
SONIC MANIA
I don't care what anyone else says, this game looks PHENOMENAL! People gripe and whine about how this looks like your typical 2D Sonic fangame. To that, I say they're right, but SEGA and Christian Whitehead went out of their way to give it that 90's flare that the other fangames seemed to lack. Look at Stereopolis! Absolutely gorgeous.
Don't you just love the Sonic CD soundtrack? GOOD. If you look up this game's soundtrack, you will find it uses the same musical style as Sonic CD. It's going to be one of those soundtracks that you can just plug in some headphones and listen to aside from playing the game.
Best part? It's going to have a PC release!
It really sickens me to find scumbag fans on the video before the next announcement already dissing this saying that it's not the "Modern" game they were waiting for? I bet they got schooled with our next reveal:
PROJECT 2017
HOLY. CRAP.
There's nothing beautiful about burning city and giant killer robots smashing everything up, but it does look pretty sick. Sonic must have a lot to go up against in this one. I wonder if Eggman finally took over the world. Would it be in his best nature to destroy everything? I mean, this isn't the SatAM Robotnik we're talking about. Is it? Who knows.
I hope to see cameos from all sorts of characters. Tails and Knuckles are a must. It's supposed to be the 25th anniversary game (a year ahead of the anniversary) after all! I hope to see Shadow, Amy, Metal Sonic, and hopefully even Silver and Blaze! This wasn't the game debut of Cosmo the Seedrain I was hoping for, but I'll accept anyone. Yes, even a Big the Cat cameo.
And then there was Classic Sonic. I honestly was not expecting him again, but I guess SEGA didn't want to scrap the model they did for Generations just yet. This means we're going to have classic and modern style levels again, except everything is new. Perhaps Classic Sonic could be given 3D treatment this time. It's all up in the air right now.
Guess what much of the fans did? If you guessed moan and complain about Classic Sonic, you are one right bastard! In the words of a legendary 12 year old:
"YOU FRICKIN' FRICKS JUST CAN'T EVER BE QUENCHED"
Lastly, did you look at the lower right hand corner of the systems screen? Does the letters NX strike your attention? That's right! Nintendo is releasing their NX shortly. I feel bad for all you kids who just spent years trying to convince your parents for a Wii U.
What's my thoughts?
