Sonic Origins isn't being done by Backbone or Digital Eclipse. It's in good hands.

So aside from widescreen support do we know if anything new’s being added to 3K like was the case with the other Whitehead remakes?

The prototype music sounds fine in an actual Genesis I think. It's just Microsoft's lovely MIDI synthesizer making them sound bad on the old 90s S3&K PC version.

I wish they'd just come out and say what the where-for-art-thous of Sonic 3. I suspect, however, that them playing keepaway is their way of being coy and saying "well, you're gonna have to buy it to find out huh?" Motherfucker. I was going to do that already, this is the easily accessible version of the best remasters these games are getting this side of Super Mario All-Stars. I just want to know how Sonic 3 is gonna be. That said I'd lose no sleep over losing the three (?) OG MD music tracks and getting MD Remasters of the PC Version as it seems like that those were going to be the music from the off anyway and Jackson et all only got involved in the later stages of development.

Launch Base zone is far less enjoyable without hearing GO! in the background.

I'm really curious how Sonic 3&K with the beta tracks would feel to someone who's just never played or saw the games. Even if the beta tracks are better with proper synth, they're still just so out of place.

Its easy for me, No original sonic 3 music no buy unless its discounted. Why would I play a version of Sonic 3 without the Carnival Night theme? madness. I'll just stick to all the six other ways I can play it

I quite like the beta music on its own merits, but man, Ice Cap and Launch Base are incredible, and I'd hate for people to miss out on them.

Way back when the mobile ports were new there was some talk of expanding the multiplayer stages into full single act zones, but that was years ago and nothing's been said about new stuff for Origins that I'm aware of.

I've known people who grew up with the PC Sonic & Knuckles Collection having never had a Genesis/Mega Drive and still prefer the midi tracks of those stages because the console ones feel out of place to them.

i wonder if sega has a stupid internal thing about not allowing classic amy to be playable or if there just isnt anyone pushing for it. i feel like shes such an obvious addition, sure yeah itd be a lot of work and since they arent adding knuckles to cd the budget definitely cut off somewhere but like, even in mania when they had the opportunity to add more characters she was skipped over

That’s also how it feels to play those levels, so the final tracks are perfect.

Now, Sonic 3 standalone with the beta track instead.... yikes

The loss of the original Sonic 3 mini-boss theme was one of the few downsides to playing Sonic 3 and Knuckles as a single game. The & Knuckles version just doesn't have the same energy as a digitized voice shouting "C'MON!" when the miniboss shows up.

Seems like something you say two months before launch so people could cool off before release instead of making people mad on release day

In a perfect world Sonic 3 would let you choose the beta/actual music like how the Whitehead CD port lets you choose the japanese/english music

At the very least I hope they change (or give you the option to turn off) S3K’s annoyingly repetitive Invincibility/Super theme

The music has been replaced by acapella renditions by Sonic himself. They haven't shown it off yet, because people will be upset when they find out they got Modern Sonic to do it instead of Classic.
