Well, it looks... okay... I mean, it's not really the most fantastic thing ever.
I hope BioWare keeps to Sonic's classic roots, somehow...
It would be cool if each of the attacks with an EBA style input system generates a random pattern each time you do an attack. It'll make the game more challenging.
As you can tell, the game is... well, meh... to me right now. But I have confidence that this will be better than it looks right now.

I think that no matter what I do, the trailer won't play when I click the button.

It doesn't seem to want to play with Firefox. Worked ok with Internet Explorer, though.

Is it just me, or is the music waaaay too epic for a Sonic game? Just sayin'.

I agree. They're trying to make it sound like a Final Fantasy or other high fantasy RPG, but it's not. I think this video sets the wrong tone. I hope that's not what the game music sounds like...

Eh, I'll give it a try. I'm starved for good Sonic games

The music is a bit much, but all in all a pretty informative trailer.

Looks pretty good. It reminds me a lot of PH.
Too bad it's Sonic.

Why is turn based combat frowned upon so much these days?

Gee, I happen to like the epic music and hope it makes it into the game.
Beats the generic "happy, happy, joy, joy" music most games get.

Yet another game for September, I swear this is a conspiracy! T________T
I don't think the music will be like that, I saw some game footage awhile ago and the music was different, more happy and sonic-like.
I'm looking forward to this game actually, it looks really nice, but I will probably hold out on buying it till later in the year, September is too pack with other games that I also want. T__________T

Hmmmm thats weird. Sonic being turned on an RPG is awkward, but it is looking very ok so far.
BioWare, I wish you luck to make this title great.
