I have some thoughts, too
-Maybe another 2.5D like in the sonic rival series, but it shouldn't be exclusive to the PSP imo
-fuck the voice acting altogether, it wasn't needed to begin with especially with shitty vioce overs in english
-Implement the 3D elements into 2D, this was accomplished in rom hacks of older games (cough cough Sonic MegaMix) so don't be telling me it can't work
lastly-No More New Characters there is already enough as is
what a terrible idea @ bold part
plus Sonic Rush already pretty much did it
there's no use for homming attack and a fuckzillion dashpads in a 2D game because Sonic has enough acceleration and top-speed to go through loopings and shit like that without needing to have the aid of dashpads, which it's pretty much why they were introduced.
Homming attack was introduced because it's hard to stomp over an enemy in a 3D environment, Super Mario 64 proved it. And in a gameplay that is supposed to be fast, this'd be complicated.
I've been thinking about this post and you know, I actually partially agree with this post
I have to admit, I agree with the part where most of the sonic games these days have way too much speed pad pointlessly when you don't need them. it gets pretty annoying when you are trying to get some rings, or accidentally run into a badnick/robot as a result of the pads. not only would you loose time, but it makes it frustrating when you are trying to complete a level.
As for the homing attack, unless they come up with some clever way to use it and get to a secret area in the level (at least trying to incorporating it with level design) that you couldn't access without it, then there could be at least some use for it, otherwise you are right, it would be completely useless.
