Well, from Sonic Boom, we have the Classic Sonic version of escape from the city.

also, more gameplay for City Escape.

Im sure many have wondered if it is possible to make The truck chase section from SA2 any more epic.

Well, they just have. Kudos Generations. Kudos.

Also lol at the guy totally not knowing the meaning behind "GUN" and coming up with some funny idea.

Death Egg. I swear if we get the Death Egg, I will like, die of joy or something.

Wonder how many stages from each game they'd include. If it's one or two, a lot of these choices aren't gonna make it. Cause you know Casino Night is going to be there, and an Ice Cap (either Sonic 3 or Adventure 1) is gonna be there.

I much agree with Sky Sanctuary, though. And for an oddball choice, Music Plant from Advance 2. Ristar needs more love.

Actually, I wonder if they will touch upon the handhelds?

I know Death Egg will likely be there, I mean, it's a plot element for 2, 3, and S&K.

That's why I was Stardust Speedway from Sonic CD.

Oh man, if they could include the time aspect of it too, that'd be awesome.

Personally, I'd hope for Flying Battery. 8)

You know, I'm kinda bummed, that the 3DS "Sonic Generations" is basically going to be Genesis-sidescrolling vs Rush-sidescrolling.  Particularly since I'll be lacking access to 360/PS3 versions.  I wonder if Sega will be shooting for similar themes and soundtracks?

Well if they had the truck in City escape, im certain if speedway is there, it will have Metal Sonic AND the laser beam of doom.

actually, what with generations and older sonic stages making comebacks, I think it would be apropriate to leave these here.

So, I kind of got an idea on what the final list of stages are for this game.

I'm disappointed that they chose four city stages. You've seen two of them.

There is no final list at the moment probably.

Anywho, Classic looks awesome.

That Truck... It just really wants you dead this time around as opposed to just chasing you.

Still... Classic Stage Ranks? [tornado fang] that [parasitic bomb].

Oh, there's a list all right...

[spoiler]I can tell you right now, Sonic 3 and Sonic and Knuckles are being treated as one game. From the sound of their choice, they were between Hydrocity and Sky Sanctuary.

Sonic 2's level on consoles is Chemical Plant Zone. There was never any doubt on that one.

There's no Sega Saturn representation at all, nor is there for Game Gear, Master System, Sega CD, and 32X.

Sonic Adventure's level is Speed Highway. A shame because I would have adored either Windy Hill or Lost World.

SA2's was a no brainer.

Heroes is another unfortunate toss up. Sega can't decide between Seaside Hill or Casino Park/Bingo Highway. Given that Casino Night Zone is on the 3DS, Casino Park is all but confirmed.

Sonic 2006 gets some unfortunate remembrance, but they're going with Crisis City. A HUGE shame here as Flame Core, Aquatic Base, and Kingdom Valley were ALL better choices.

Sonic Unleashed is getting Rooftop Run/Spagonia. That one is pretty much confirmed.

Sonic Colors is likely getting Planet Wisp on consoles, with Starlight Carnival or Sweet Mountain on 3DS. It's the only modern Sonic game that is also getting an entry on 3DS. On 3DS, Advance 1, Advance 2, Advance 3, Rush, and Rush Adventure are getting their own representatives instead of console-based levels.[/spoiler]

My apologies if I killed your hype.

[spoiler]I'm not surprised they are doing 06, But I would've LOVED Kingdom Valley. (Believe it or not I actually like 06 somewhat.)
I heard Colors is getting Planet Wisp as well.
Sonic Adventure should be Red Mountain, IMO. Its a good stage on the outside for classic sonic and a good stage inside for modern,
3DS version I don't give two fucks about since Dimpshits are behind it (Ugh...) But I can assume that Adv2 will use either Sky Canyon or Techno Base, maybe Music Plant... That version is going to be [parasitic bomb] anyway since Dimps doesn't understand that too many bottomless pits are BAD.
Rooftop Run? I don't even really like that stage, should've went with Apotos or Eggmanland.
CD isn't getting in? What the [tornado fang]?
Where was Chem Plant confirmed?
I would prefer Lava Reef from Sonic 3, that or Death Egg. Not Sky sanctuary (Bad Modern Stage) or Hydrocity (Water tends to equal insta-death in modern lately, Colors might've changed that but still.
Saturn doesn't need representation, only original game from that was Sonic R.
No Sonic 3D? Could've had some great music.[/spoiler]

No hype lost.

Where exactly did this list come from? Cant trust EVERYTHING you find.

Although that would be typical of Sega. Make up for years of Sonic abuse in one way, and then screw it up in another way.

For SA1 I would actually choose more along the lines of the beach stage, if only because running from the Orca is pretty iconic.

Also, you guys think Super Sonic will be playable? I'd LOVE to be able to play as classic Supersonic.

With the reception Super Sonic got in Sonic Colors, even if he wasn't terribly great, and that we also have Special Stages coming in apparently, I think it's all but happening.

As for the list, the leak came from a person of unknown stature at Archie. Why Archie would need to know the level list is beyond me, but I wager it's for a comic adaptation for the game. They've traditionally done one for major releases.

After SA1 Archie's comic tie-ins were generally short introductions to the game story that were never picked up.  They flashbacked to SA2 in Universe, and that was basically it.

The only reason Super Sonic isn't "terribly great" in Colors is because you're so [tornado fang]ing sick of the game by the time you've found all those Red Rings.  I'll be REALLY pissed if Super Sonic is on the consoles but not on 3DS...

If they include the appropriate remix, I'm going to be very very sad for missing it...  Ah well, that's why we have YouTube.

So am I. I'm hoping the list is wrong. The Metal Sonic race along Stardust Speedway is easily one of the most iconic moments in Sonic's history, period.

The fact aht the Sonic fandom didn't CD among other things didn't help matters. Sonic CD was the best man!  0v0

Last I checked, the Sonic fanbase faps to Sonic CD. Furiously. A good number love it more than S3K.

Not me though. I think CD is overrated. *raises flame shield*
