I honestly look forward to this game, even if it's a SUMO racer with only Sonic characters and l'm also optimistic about the team mechanics and stuff, but I really hope that part about "Conventional singles races" isn't talking about offline play with CPU team mates and it actually means a race mode without teams period - if so, then HELL YES.

Honestly, if it plays well - and if Sumo is actually working on it then, that goes without saying - I'd be fine with it. Granted, the SEGA stuff was fucking great in Transformed and ASR, and hearing the possibility of the game existing and possibly being only Sonic kind of sucks imo, there's still more cool stuff to take out of SEGA's catalogue, both obscure and popular, and it would've been great to see some Atlus stuff added in too. If this will be Sonic only, then I hope it won't overall replace the Sega All-Star/Superstars stuff and that there'd still be a new one, like another racer or maybe even a fighter.

If we actually do get a new ASR or whatever Sega crossover kart game by Sumo (hopefully) then I fucking hope we get some Yakuza and Phantasy Star representation, hell get someone from Atlus why not, I'd love to see someone from Persona racing by Kiryu and Sonic. Also hope to have some newcomers from ASRT comeback with some of the racers from ASR like Billy and Robo & Mobo etc. It would be kind of a bummer if it was a Sonic only kart racer tho', and I wouldn't mind it and all but one thing I love about the two ASR games was not just how well they played but just having all these neat SEGA character side by side and doing something with them besides just having them just sit and collect dust. Although, I guess nothing is stopping a Sega Superstar game from being made by someone else, but it sure be great if it was actually made by Sumo Digital.

I don't think I have anything to even run it on, and if I'll ever get a Switch, I won't be getting it on it anyway since it doesn't sound too stable there. If I ever get a PS4 or my weak-ass laptop decides to transform into some kind of powerhouse desktop, then probably I will.

When I heard they uploaded Metal's theme, I thought it was going to be his Sonic 4 boss theme, was pleasantly surprised it wasn't. It sounded aright tbh, though I do agree that they could tone the dubstep down a bit, but coming from a person who couldn't really care about the US CD soundtrack, this was aright.

Damn, looks good. Didn't think they'd actually go with 3D models, I thought the polygonal Giant Rings were just a stylistic choice and just and weren't hints or anything, but look at that. I really like the bleak drop shadows everything has and the general look of it with those pillars, the "Emerald Chase" goal of the stages reminds me of Heroes, wonder how this will look in motion. Also loving the snippet of the Special Stage's theme someone was able to record.
