Sir_NutS Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 http://savygamer.blogspot.com/2008/04/sonic-2-hd-fan-remake-on-way.html Of course, most fan remakes either are crappy, fail miserably or are left in the road. But this one looks REALLY good so far, the quality is up with what capcom is doing for Street Fighter HD. So for now, enjoy, and dream.

Airwalker Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 This is actually the type of Sonic game I'd fall for. SEGA should take note. They absolutely must make a nostalgia-based game instead of throwing in new characters, new features, and clashing game mechanics. Maybe not an exact copy of the game, though that would be sweet, but maybe something along the lines of what New Super Mario Bros did for Mario.

Dhsu Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Sonic Rush? And if you didn't like that, then...well, that's your problem. This project looks pretty good so far. Too bad the soundtrack is just MIDI rips (literally). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liontamer Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 "WHOA, nice graphics!" "I'd like to my hands on THAT game!" Ok, now it's time for the periodic request for Gux's Powerglove commercial remix. But yeah, if Sega was smart, they'd pull those guys in and pay for that game, then make a boatload of cash off it from WiiWare, rather than C&D it.

Sadly, "Sega" and "Smart" don't go well in the same sentence lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toadofsky Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Looks impressive, hope it actually comes out, unlike the Chrono Trigger update we saw a few years back (ol Square put out a cease and desist order on them). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airwalker Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Yeah, it's too bad about the midi soundtrack. If only there were a group of people that composed fan-made nostalgia-laced music from video games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elex Synn Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Hope they complete this project. *Crosses fingers* Classic Sonic needs a good come back on console gaming. *Looks at Sonic Rush* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, that's why I said the soundtrack was just MIDI ri-*BANNED* I heard they're also using Kaijin's "BluestSky" for Sky Chase. OCR repraZENT.

danimal cannon Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 For the love of god don't release anything until it's done idiots. You're just ASKING to be C&D'd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCvgluvr Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Oooooh. Me likee. But I'd be more excited for a Sonic 3 and Knuckles remake. Still, this looks ambitious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I'm not usually a graphics whore but when someone touches up my favorite franchise like this, they will be getting geek fan-mail from me. When I saw the graphics comparison pics, I felt like I was looking at some kind of diet commercial. (Sonic before the HD plan)- loveable, but ew... (Sonic after the HD plan)- new sexiness. Can't comment on the BG music, yet because I haven't listened to it, but hopefully they'll just use lots of OCremixes. I believe Dshu said they are already considering going that route.

You're just ASKING to be C&D'd. ... sad but true... but Sega does have a history of appreciating fan made stuff... i don't know though; I wouldn't be surprised if it gets shut down though.

Murmeli Walan Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Not entirely true. The special stage music is going to be a modified version of Dream Pipe. *coughbestdarkeswordremixevercough* But to be serious, Sonic 2 is the first Sonic game I ever owned and the game that got me into the Sonic fandom in general. I would love to play this one when it's completed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arrow Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 For the love of god don't release anything until it's done idiots. You're just ASKING to be C&D'd. To be fair, they really didn't. The project was just starting in related forum threads when somebody not part of the team mentioned it at NeoGAF, and it exploded from there. They were basically forced to admit what they were doing at that point. Since they were only a week and a half into graphic work and hadn't even started seriously considering what engine they were going to use, pissed isn't the word for what they were.

suzumebachi Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I'm going to give this soundtrack a listen. And I swear to Allah, if these are not the greatest MIDI rips ever conceived since Abraham nearly sacrificed Ishmael, I am going to declare Jihad against the infidels perpetrating this most unholy, blasphemous diatribe. In other words, this better fucking be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
