Sonic Forces feels like a game that was rushed to completion, but unlike ‘06 they knew better and made sure it was polished enough and priced properly. Which led to a complete game, but one that felt short and lacking in mechanics or cohesion.

A game being rushed to get to a certain release date is basically sonicteam.txt at this point isn't it?

Sonic Forces is an okay game. I don't hate it, but I do feel like they could've done better. Character creator was definitely the most fun part and I'd love to see more of it in future games, possibly expanded a bit further. Classic Sonic felt a bit dull. The music was incredible. Boost Sonic gameplay was fun as usual. (IMO Generations perfected boost gameplay) Story felt a little lackluster, but I'm glad the comics are making interesting stories using it's premise.

It's kind of strange they screwed Cream over here. Cheese is probably pissed he does not get to be one of the Chao in the car too.

Yeah, the whole "let's have a bunch of really short stages" thing is rear end. Gimme a few super long stages like Unleashed and Generations.

I mean I imagine those stages take forever to make but hell, your character moves at the speed of sound. You either have very large stages or you have stages that end in thirty seconds.

For me at least, I don't know that it was necessarily that the Forces levels were too short, more that they never felt satisfying to beat. You can beat Emerald Hill Zone Act 1 in under 30 seconds easily (maybe a bad example because it's not boost-mode stuff) but it still feels like you accomplished something by getting to the end. It would be like if Rooftop Run ended right when you get to the clock tower. It feels like nothing has happened yet, but the game is telling you the level is over, so...it's over, I guess.

Sonic Official's playing some Mania Plus on stream, and Encore Mode looks pretty rad. Mighty's got some pretty interesting gameplay properties that sounds pretty useful for a speedrun.

Well if the past is any indication, Robotnik is generally the best part of any Sonic-related production so he'll probably at least be entertaining if nothing else.

Also, this is apparently going to be the plot of the movie:

It's about a small town coming together to help the sheriff save Sonic – a blue anthropomorphic hedgehog that can reach the speed of sound – from the government chasing after him.

There's no question that this is going to be terrible, but maybe it'll turn out to be entertainingly bad at least.

To be fair, Jim Carrey as Eggman is a pretty decent choice all things considered (especially if they play up the whole manchild aspect of the character).

The game features a blue hedgehog named Sonic whose peaceful life is often interrupted by Doctor Eggman, a mad scientist who is trying to conquer the world, and by Doctor Robotnik, another scientist who has imprisoned animals in robots and stolen magical Chaos Emeralds.

That makes me irrationally annoyed.

It's going to come out in the same year as a movie about a mystery solving Pikachu voiced by Ryan Reynolds.

Oddly enough, both films where Danny Devito would have been better cast but alas.
