Project Needlemouse...?

Post by Qloof234 » Thu Oct 29, 2009 1:04 am

I think SEGA has finally realized what they've been doing wrong this whole time.

I don't know about any other Retro fans, but I'm excited already.

Discuss. :wink:

EDIT3:
Official Interview wrote:GameSpot: Why did Sega decide to bring Sonic back to 2D? Did the success of Sonic Rush and Sonic Rush Adventure play a part?

Ken Ballough: Old-school Sonic fans have long asked to see Sonic return to a more 2D style of gameplay. Many liked the daytime stages in Unleashed, but wanted to see a game that plays purely similar to the early games of the Genesis. Project Needlemouse is that critical first step that brings Sonic back to his 2D roots.

<3


I think I'll shut up now

And... bump.

I believe that posting this here is absolutely necessary just because

This cycle has applied to almost any Sonic game after Sonic Heroes, save one instance so far - Sonic Unleashed, but only because gameplay never appeared to be "the same old" (random unnecessary gimmick in EVERY level that is totally useless/slow, annoying movement) - Sonic Unleashed is one of the most fast-paced video games ever.

There is a gimmick to it though that I'm not going to mention... I have my reasons. :wink:

You'll know what it is if you've A) Played the game, or B) heard me ranting about it on Skype

Nope, I haven't heard anything like that...except, well, you saying that you're hacking the game. :P :lol:

But I am hardly ever on Skype anymore - I just pop in every once in a while...like I did last night. :lol:
