Sonic Rivals 2 looks exactly like predecessor

Please dont tell me we are going to start allowing these FIRST POST IDIOTS! Please Andrew can you remove this unrelated trashy post.

damn first posters

btw, that better not be the final product, not that i'd buy it anyway

omg, how can they possible make a game like this? it doesn't look fun, it doesn't look good.. how can they expect it to sell?

well, i guess just because it's a sonic's game..

I saw recently a video of Sonic Xtreme ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wzvS_beXtXk#WNhba1GfJq0 ). That game could have been so great. Why the hell doesn't Sega revive the project on PSP or DS by themselves, instead of shoving Backbone money down the throat for something completely mediocre like Sonic Rivals. Or hell, give it to Dimps - they certainly did a better job with Sonic Rush, than Backbone with Rivals.

FAIL.

So you just hold down the forward button and the game takes care of the rest?

Framerate is off, but I'm sure they'll fix that. The spikes, wall climbing, twisting platforms, vines, and spinning orbs all look like new elements to me. It's a cool little platformer with old-school gameplay, and it does appeal to a younger crowd, but also has a lot of nostalgia for us older dudes.

All they need to do is add music and speed up the characters, then it will be fine.
