Otherwise, there's no confirmed canon yet, so I wouldn't sweat it too much.īy the way, did anyone source Mighty's entrance theme yet? I need that in my life. In other words, I feel like Adventures and Encore Mode provide two differing takes on a certain scenario, and I personally don't see both being canon, so my preference would be to take Adventures as canon *at this moment*, but that's just because I really love what we've been getting from it. Given the nature of Mania's Phantom Ruby, it's not as though Adventures has no options for a plot device which would lead nicely into Encore Mode's story, but I feel like doing so at the end of Adventures would be messy and rob the series of a satisfying conclusion. Without spoiling too much for those wanting to go blind into Mania Plus, what was shown of Mania Plus on yesterday's livestream is conflicting with what's been shown in Adventures (anyone who watched the livestream will know what I mean). Regarding the timeline, right now I'd say Encore Mode is non-canon, whereas Adventures is the true follow up to Mania, story-wise. I'll be playing Ray a lot not just because of being fond of him, but also because of how he looks and plays in game. On a side note, I liked what I've seen of Mighty, Ray, and Plus gameplay in general during the credits. That's why it's my second favourite character in this franchise. Mighty is nice too by himself, but I'd give him a bit more of seriousness to differentiate him a bit more from Sonic, my only complain as the rest of this portrayal of him was perfect.Īnd then, Metal Sonic. I would easily give both couples the same level of protagonism, at least. In fact, when I've seen Mighty and Ray together acting like Sonic and Tails but acctually different I thought they could be a good alternative as the main and only characters of a classic style spinoff featuring a different story. I always had a special place in my heart for Ray since I knew of him and the game he was in despite not seing that much of either of them back in the day seeing this Ray is really like the one I thought he was in 1993 with just a couple of screenshots of SegaSonic Arcade makes me really happy. Sega reveals two new Sonic Mania projects at SXSW: one game and one animated series. I still like the first one more for how quintessential was about sonic series (you know, Sonic's about this and that kind of stuff), and is hard to compare them beyond that because the emphasis on the first was humour and in this one is pure action, so I'm choosing that, but this one was so good. Sonic Mania Plus and Sonic Mania Adventures details GamesRadar+. I may not be into sonic like a lot of other people are but I won't lie in saying that this game is amazing and is worth any gamers time/money.This one was magnificent.

It's also one of the more challenging games in the series as well as having fun boss fights and some of them are creative. It's basically like 3 & Knuckles but with more expanded on it. The games bonus stages are fun as hell and the levels themselves are fast and well designed. It has the save system from Sonic 3 & Knuckles, The ability to play as five characters if you download the DLC which is worth it by the way.

It's also full of refences to other games in the series which is great for long time fans and even to non sonic fans like myself. The people who made this did a fantastic job with it's soundtrack, visuals, controls, Content, level design, gameplay, and everything that makes an excellent 2D platformer. This is one of the best games in the series that's not even made by Sonic Team. Sonic 2, 3&Knuckles, Generations, Mania (which is what I reviewing right now), Rush, Unleashed, All stars racing Transformed, Sonic CD, Colors, Advance 1, Pocket adventure and sonic Riders which is a guilty pleasure of mine.

There are games In the series I really like such as But I won't say the series as a whole is bad far from it. The series has always had a lot of misses for me which is why I never got into it like many other people did. I will start of by saying I am not a fan of sonic the hedgehog.
