Aside from the fact that I don't own any current generation consoles, the reason I don't have any interest in the newest installments of Sonic is the fact they throw in gimmicks that aren't of any interest, like the Werehog in Sonic Unleashed. (I did like the music of that game enough to download the OST, haven't quite listened to it all since each track is extended to over 10 minutes of length, and have several variants.)
I watched a playthrough of Sonic and the Black Knight, the game itself didn't interest me, the music was okay.
Not enough to get me to find an OST download to listen to it in it's entirety though.
What I miss about the old days of the Genesis though, is the side scrolling, all these 3D ones are in a different perspective, loses some of that platforming goodness with this new layout.
I say that if they want to show off awesome graphics, but have that good ol' charm of the classics, they should create a 3D environment, and play it out in 2D gameplay, with an occasional twist or turn, cause seriously, one long stretch of a level would be quite the hardware whore, so you've gotta fill in the rest of the environment somewhere.
And the music, oh boy, I love Sonic music, S&K had bad ass tracks, it did indeed.
I just don't like all the "new rock" they throw into the new games, I know someone must enjoy it, but it's just not Sonic in my ears.
Oh god I just made a rant didn't I?
