Sonic Colors “as good as or even better than” 2D Sonic releases, says producer
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 3 Comments
This information comes from Sonic Colors Producer Takashi Iizuka…
“The team think they know the problem (with 3D Sonic games), but the reason behind it is because those games in 3D didn’t live up to the expectation of the fans. In Sonic Colors, the team looked back at previous Sonic games and looked at the pros and cons of each title, and they hope they have addressed all the goods and bads in Sonic Colors. We believe that this Sonic game is as good as or even better than the 2D Sonic games.”
Making a game as good as the classic 2D Sonics is a very difficult task. While I believe Sonic Colors could turn out well, I just don’t think it’ll be met with the same reception as the old titles. In any case, Colors is a very different product than what we’ve seen in the past. So, personally, I don’t see the point in comparing it to the 2D games.
