I'm Looking Forward to Sonic Superstars

It's insane how 6 years ago, Amy was pretty much absent from Mania aside from an Easter Egg in the Metallic Madness boss, but now she's not only a playable character in Origins Plus, but she's officially part of the main 4 in Superstar. I'm proud of our Rosy Rascal.

can we acknowledge how good this 3D classic model looks? Normally he seemed stiff and he had this weird looking waddle in the past

Did you know that Classic Sonic's cyanish/blue shade was what Oshima Originally wanted but they had to make him darker so he didn't blend with the water in Green Hill Zone 😂 Maybe the Cyan Emerald turning you into Water is an inside joke! 💎

"This didn't age well" Bro he liked Sonic forces even knowing its flaws I think hes gonna like this game abit aswell

All I care about is that Sonic Team brought Fang The Sniper back in an official new Sonic game. Not as a throwaway cameo that isn't REALLY him, not in extended material outside the games, but in a brand new mainline game. Fang's back, he's a villain again, he's getting caught in his own traps like he used to. I've waited too damn long for this. Fang was always the most underutilised character in the cast, even more so than Mighty and Ray. He was unique, memorable, and a breath of fresh air compared to the rest of the rogues gallery. He used to be a regular among the cast for a brief moment in time, and he could've been to Sonic what Wario was and still is to Mario. Just imagine this, we could've got Fang Land games that overshadowed mainline 2D Sonic games! So yeah, I'm really happy about this. The entire rest of the game is the icing on the Fang cake.

Now that i think about it, it really is just like Megaman 11 in more than just it's artstyle. Both games are new entries in a series that hasn't had a new game in a long time (Mania was 6 years ago and MM10 was 13 years ago), and modernised their series with new powerups (Double Gear in 11, Chaos Emerald powers in Superstars) to mess around with. Now we'll have to see if it's successful and if Sega profits off of that success with more stuff (unlike Capcom who immediately forgot Megaman existed right after and yes i'm still mad about it)

Glad to see bickuribox experimenting EVEN MORE with his humour, it's got real life segments now!

This could be the first 2.5D Sonic game to match 2D Sonic’s physics!

5:52 In general I noticed that there's a slightly higher difficulty to the level design we've seen, with obstacles that require tighter timing. Not punishing to the point of flooding the place with bottomless pits or cheap enemy placement, but it's reassuring to know that levels are designed with more than first time Sonic players in mind.

I really really REALLY hope this game does well, so that we can finally have a good template for more future 2D Sonic entires that would be more easily accepted by the broader audience. Yes, Mania could've served as a great template, but not everyone especially not those outside of the gamer communities would see the appeal of 2D spritework over flashy 3D graphics. I feel like the reason why there's no news at all for a potential follow-up to Mania for such a long time is because there's a lot of things to figure out trying to translate 2D Sonic into 2.5D again, but Superstars seems to have pulled it off pretty well, so if this game does well, we could probably expect more 2D Sonic games in the same engine relatively soon. At least I really hope so.

Genuinely one of my favorite YouTubers. He has a nice soothing voice and he actually knows what he’s talking about!

That ain't a whale, that's a *mosasaur*! I screamed when I saw it while me and my friends were watching in the crowd at Summer Game Fest. I hope to see more prehistoric dinosaur-like badniks in the rest of the game - the new character Trip looks like it could also be a dinosaur.

The Donkey Kong Country Returns of sonic. Never fucking mind. :/

The 5 second beat of silence after the "where's Steam?" had me rolling Great analysis overall, catch ya in the next one!

Gonna be an interesting review

You pointed out the 'pick your platform' part and I was like 'Yeah wait, I remember watching the trailer and the very Steam logo is at the end when they display the release window'. Im a bit worried as well..theres no Steam Page yet as I was going to go wishlist it.

Playing S&3K is an experience I can't ever forget.And to think my first playthrough of it was last year.If this game can top that and mania,then I will fully trust Sonic Team with all my heart and Soul Edit:Even if it aint made by Sonic Team

Can't wait to see his review on the music 😂😭💀

Holy shit man, im amazed how good your channel is doing with these sonic videos. Watched your realm videos for years and im glad you were able to pivot so succesfully and better use your creating skills :)

Glad to hear Tee Lopes and Jun Senoue are BOTH working on the soundtrack! The White Park Zone music had me a bit worried at first
