So Sega released this trailer recently for a new Sonic game, pure 2D goodness, now this normally wouldn't inspire much confidence in me especially after Sonic 4: Episode 1 & 2, but this game is seemingly being made by some people that actually understand Sonic gameplay and are responsible for the recent HD versions as well as some not-so-talked about ROM hacks that turned out pretty well.
When the developers were talking about the development of the game they went on to say this is basically what Sonic would have looked like if he had come out on the Saturn/Playstation era instead of chasing 3D like the entire industry was attempting to do at the time and failed more often then not. Basically a proper/true sequel to Sonic 3 & Knuckles but 60 FPS, more animations, etc etc, and...it looks good.
Wonder what other games with a budget that were pretty prime in the SNES/Genesis era would like like on modern consoles with a proper budget in 2D.
