Ah yes. The hate of TWELVE BRAND NEW ZONES

Don’t forget that in Sunset Heights’ gameplay trailer, the video cuts off right before the in-game end goal of the stage to try and trick viewers into believing that was about the halfway point of the stage, only to play the game and find out that was actually just right where the stage ends.

whats really sad is in a lot of these instances, the elements that were advertised (Chaos and Shadow bosses in Forces, the day night cycle in 06, the 2 additional islands in Frontiers, etc) were supposed to be in the final games but had to be cut due to time constraints. The real issue is Sega rushing these games out undercooked before they can even deliver on what's being advertised.

Sonic 3D Blast was originally called Sonic Spindrift

In Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric's case, that's actually sad. Big Red Button had something and then for some reason, Sega took it away.

One other thing about forces, a lot of the levels they showed off they would cut off the start of the level to make you think you were half way through to hide how short the stages were

Woah this happened a lot of times in the franchise this is crazy.

I’ll never forget when Sega hinted at ALOT of awesome things they were adding to Sonic Forces, with most of them either being underwhelming or complete lies

Another thing about Sonic Forces, when fans asked why Shadow was helping Eggman, they literally said “he’s helping him for his own reasons”

Which made fans speculate about why he was helping!

Only to find out that he was a fake and the answer they gave us was a lie lol

“The fact they called this dumpster fire of a game sonic 4 should be a crime”

Which is why we shouldn’t get a “Sonic adventure 3.” We’re better off not having that name ruined with some mediocre game.

2:16 This was because Sonic Team had to use an older build of 06 to get it out on time.

Sega these days:
1. Market the game
2. Lie about the game
3. False advertisement
4. Frick up the game
5. MONEY

People talk about CyberPunk 2077 when Sega already did this a few times in the past.

Frontiers' marketing is a bit messy until the game's release but so far Sonic X Shadow Generations' marketing is doing great

The tragic part of Rhea Island is that the actual level design is pretty good. There's some interesting ruins and geography down there. There's even a lake with some sunken ruins.
