Sonic runs faster than cars this is stupid
No. No cars. I want running. And this song:
Gotta go fast.
As long as i can play Ryo Hazuki driving a Forklift again, i'll be happy. The last game was surprisingly fun.
According to the leak, its only Sonic characters this time. 15 Characters, wisps for power ups. I feel like its a big step down from the last game which was really good like you said. Apparently it was hinted at that Crush 40 is back doing the theme music though? It does sound vaguely buttrock-ish. (I love Crush 40 for what its worth)
