What we really need is a Knuckles who engages in polite debates with his enemies, and not one who punches them in the face.

 Well, he DOES run for mayor.

Call me stupid, but I am actually wishing this is the 2015 game. This game looks fun. When I first saw Lost World, I was thinking "meh" (although I still wanted to play it) but this game actually makes my alarm bells ring.

 

And freakin' Amy is playable. Playable. If you told me this a year ago, I wouldn't believe you.

 

I'm now worried that the 2015 game will revert back to Sonic-only... *sigh*

So in the trailer....I noticed something....

...I'm not trying to be rude...but..

Sonic has a bulge. I won't post the image, but it's when the four are all in a defensive circle. Gross.

It's not Dimps doing the 3DS version, it's Sanzaru Games. The people responsible for the Sly HD Collection and Sly 4.

 

 

Then you will be very pleased to know that the 3DS version is made by Sanzaru Games! =D

Seriously this is the best news for me, together with the four playable characters aspect.

Seeing as we've had games "playing different" from each other all the time, it might as well have been a mainline Sonic game. "But WAIT it's a spin-off" is, like, the last thing with hopes to take away that impression.

Don't give me this crap. We've had boost gameplay for five goddamn years and that's if you completely ignore the Rush games. The point is that this is specifically referred to as being separate from something like Lost World.

The focus on Sonic's crew inspired the developers, animators and everyone else working on "Sonic Boom" to make each hero distinct, in both form and function. In the case of Knuckles, that meant putting the once Sonic-sized sidekick through puberty — not steroids — in an effort to make the burly red echidna stand out from the pack, as well as pack a punch.

 

 

 

 

...That's STILL incongruent with past designs, yo.

There were older Echidnas in the flashbacks in Sonic Adventure, pretty sure none of them looked like.... That.

Considering what has been seen, even though this is a pretty drastic change, I can't help but be more interested in this then I ever was for Lost Word. I don't know, I love the stye and the platforming elements shown, the visuals are also amazing, and this actually might have a interesting story. However, the character designs and lack of Sonic themed items worries me at the same time. We'll see as time goes.

 

(Also, I wouldn't be surprised if at some point there is a crossover between the regular universe and this.:P)

In the game trailer there's a statue of some sort of Echidna warrior, though. He's buffed out like Knuckles. So it's at least accurate in the spin-off universe.

This is the second coming of 06 to finally kill off the Sonic series. And also this is a sick deviant artist dream come to life.

Except '06 was a main game and this is a spinoff sub-series.

Next thing you know they've bulked out Shadow. (Ok, seriously, I can't see that happening. :P)

 

I was thinking that if they were going with this as being "canon," then maybe Knuckles simply buffed out more as he aged. It doesn't make much sense in context, of course, but it would've been the best explanation...
