Sega Announces new 2D Sonic title

[Vipershark]

Sonic Heroes was the shit, why do people dislike it so much?

Aside from the annoying voice acting, terrible physics, insanely cheap deaths, and MANY game-breaking bugs?

It didn't have enough variety.
As Jovian 12 said, it's was just the same level with all four teams, and their playing styles weren't really different enough to justify their existence.
It was pretty much "LET'S THROW AS MANY SONIC FRIENDS INTO A GAME AS WE CAN AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS."

I've said it before, and I'll say it again.
Sonic Heroes was actually a really good idea. Team-based strategic play using 3 characters at once? Sign me up.
It was a great idea ruined by terrible execution.
