As the admin said, there will be more than just a huge plain for Sonic to run. It will take probably about 10 minutes for a level, I think.

It would be nearly impossible to estimate level times without seeing the level designs. Remember, in order to achieve 5 minutes, you would need to be going 300 MPH from start to finish (that is, right off the bat, 300 MPH… no acceleration).

It may take time to achieve a top speed. It may also be that the designs are not perfectly linear (actually, we know they aren’t based on footage we’ve seen). It may also be that we encounter enemies such as bosses in the stages which we’ll have to deal with as well.

and there where screenshot with the time being 12 mins,but that could be a slow test run.

isnt it 300 mph÷60 mins equals 5 minutes? cause 5×60=300 so wouldnt sonic clear 6 miles in 5 mins?

At 300 miles per hour, 6 miles is under 5 minutes. Remember, a car at 60 miles per hour can clear 6 miles in 6 minutes! 300 miles per hour is 5 times longer than that.

@…:
I agree with you, for the fact that I do not believe something is best just because it is “classic.” That includes people saying the original Super Mario Bros is better than Super Mario Galaxy.

Even if a game came out in 1991… I’m not into the sentimental rubbish and I can read enough problems with it so I do not consider it superior. Somethings, I can understood are “good for their time.”

With that being said, a CAR TRAVELLING AT 60 MILES PER HOUR can clear 6 miles in 6 MINUTES! That means, if Sonic travels at 300 miles per hour, he can clear 6 miles in…. 6 divided by 5 minutes. 300 MPH is 5 times greater than 60 MPH. Can someone calculate how long that level is?

@…: i played mario galaxy. that was fun in its own way. I liked the original sonic games because of the adrenalin rush it gave. the closest game that's provided a similar adrenalin rush is the burnout 3, and even then it was different. It feels infinitely better to see a hedgehog run around loops than seeing a car drift.

@…:

I think that is a bit short-sighted.
Some people like mario more,some like sonic more.
So what?
I am more of a sonic guy,but all mario games I played are very good in design,which sonic lacks last years.(save from handheld).
But this game may break the trend.
