Lady Lilith Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 http://www.sonicretro.org/2014/06/sonic-2-hd-returns-from-its-grave/ Remember Sonic 2 HD, which unceremoniously died following its alpha release because of nonsense regarding former project programmer L0st? The quick excitement and then sorrow of the project’s release and cancellation reverberated across the Internet and it looked like the dream had finally died. Not so fast. In the waning hours of Sonic’s 23rd Birthday (and we do hope you keep your Sonic memories coming in), the Sonic 2 HD Facebook group sprung back to life and announced the project was back on. Turns out that a newcomer, who remains anonymous, stepped up with an engine to fill the hole L0st’s firing caused, and the engine received approval by project head Vincent. While the team is a short a few members from its original development (citing real life obligations), it looks like the project will continue development. If any of you are feeling creative and have the skills to assist the group, it may not be a bad time to contact the team and show them your stuff. Excitement! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkStar83x Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Hopefully Sega doesn't put the lid on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1973456 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 this franchise needs to be buried already! they have been bringing out sonic games since 92. How about we bury you instead? Nice to see this project is still alive, even if it is the installment I least enjoy of the original trilogy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly_Cooper_FTW Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 So is this Sonic 2 just with brighter colors in HD? Or is it an actual remaster of Sonic 2 with modern day graphics in HD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowGandalf Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 this franchise needs to be buried already! they have been bringing out sonic games since 92. *psst*, since 91 actually.... *wink* I saw that on YT a couple years back and didn't know it was an actual project that had been canned. If this releases properly I'll def get it. Love the classic Sonic games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryumoau Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 looks interesting. I'm only a moderate Sonic fan though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parker Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Yeah, I'd definitely buy that. I'd buy it twice if they release a PS4 version. Parker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Lilith Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) this franchise needs to be buried already! they have been bringing out sonic games since 92. So you're against Mario, Metroid, Zelda, Pacman, Punch Out, and all the other IPs from before 1991 (NOT 1992, that was when Sonic 2 came out)?

Priere Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 oh my, this is genius work! i have to say that i like the classic gameplay more than modern one but they are both fantastic, and those graphics are stunning. sega is really getting their work done amazingly.
