You think old school Sonic games should be remade?

Considering the fact sonic gotten medicore for the past few years, sonic's real sucess came from his old days. Some fans actually like the new games, but if your a true blure die hard fan: then you should go for old school. Games that are meant to be remade with some new aspects like "sonic the hedgehog 1991" as well as "sonic the hedgehog 2" should all be remade. With a remake, sonic is able to do homing attack as well as playable chars from the death egg saga. Anyways...if it was meant to be a remake then it should look like this...

Notice that sega is not even behind of this rumor "sonic 2 hd" is developed by sonic retro a good wewbsite for good programmers, i believe sega ought to learn  thing or 2 about them. 

I think they could use some graphical enhancing. Put them on DS. That'd be cool.

But not throw in stuff to wreck it (*cough* SONIC GENESIS *cough*).

no. leave them alone. you alter, you alienate. simple as that.

oh and I doubt SEGA will learn anything from the Sonic Retro team. If they see that it's going down, SEGA will issue a cease and knockitoff order.

I hate remakes. They're lazy. All you do is take an existing game that's more than likely already available for download on VC. XBLA and PSN. If you're going to remake something, don't remake something everyone has already played, remake something that didn't get a chance the first time like Klonoa for the Wii but even that's pushing it. For me, it was nice as I didn't play it the first time around. But everyone's played Sonic 2, not to mention there's a gazillion Sega collections out there where you can play it, it's downloadable on the VC , XBLA and Gametap.

No what a lot of us want Sega to do is make Sonic the Hedgehog 4 in the vein of Megaman 9. A downloadable old school sidescroller with new levels (they can use some of the lost levels of Sonic 2). No stupid gimmicks like werehogs, swords or guns. No annoying friends butting in aside from maybe Tails or Knuckles and even then, that should be optional. No long, drawn out, poorly done cutscenes with bad voice acting a pointless story we don't care about. Just Sonic running fast in 2D. If they don't want the retro graphics, that's fine.

I've been waiting for a "Sonic Mega Collection DS" of sorts, actually, seeing as a true portable Sonic compilation hasn't been released yet. But, knowing SEGA, they'd most likely omit Sonic 3 and S&K as almost always is the case with the other Mega Drive compilations. If something of that nature would surface, HOPEFULLY (caps), SEGA had learnt from that StH Genesis blunder.

As for the remaking of Sonic 2, if Sonic Retro wants to tackle the project, by any means, we should support them. After all, once it's finished, all of us should be able to play it for free. However, I agree with Chocolate in that if SEGA itself would shoulder something like this, the end result could be ugly. Fifteen years later, somehow, SEGA's still having difficulty (or just downright apathy) in porting Mega Drive games, so I'd want that problem resolved first before any "remake" business takes place.

For those who think old Sonic games should be remade, may I present Spikey's review of Sonic Genesis. Such wonderful, horrible crap.

I'm still looking forward to your Sonic Jam for the Game.com review Spikey.

If it means I'm required to spend more "quality" time with that game, I'mcertainly not looking forward to it, that's for sure. ;)

I hate most remakes Super Mario Bros 3 is an exception with updated graphics,a save system on the Super Mario All Stars and Super Mario Advance 4.

Most remakes end up bad which is why they should be left alone.

Those are remakes. Those are downloadable ports with a coating of HD glossed over.
