I think that if SEGA does do more Sonic games, that they should reboot the series and try to stick to a much more consistent timeline. Otherwise I'm going to have to use my usual loophole explainer... altered timelines.
I think we could use a new Adventure style game done similarly to Mania, made by experienced fans and actually good writers, and with only a few returning stages from Adventures 1 and 2.
It's be a nice change of pace, imo.

I'm kinda worried about what direction they'd take a reboot at this point. I'm not even worried about the inconsistent timeline with the quality of their recent Sonic content, save for Mania.

I second this, but then again I'm pretty sure this is what most fans have been asking for years.
All SEGA should do is listen to their fans to see and give them what they want. But, because SEGA continues to show disconnect to their own fans by not listening to them, I'm getting the feeling they won't last long throughout this year if they keep refusing to give fans what they really want just by ignoring them.
Please look at Sonic Utopia.
Admire the world of that game, and then check out Sonic Paradise.
Look at these games, and how excellently they port Sonic's 2d gameplay to 3d!
Sega had the right idea when they made Green Hill Zone in SA2, but they lost the plot with heroes and lost it harder when BOOST, something that works great with the terrible stop-start-stop-start bottomless-pits instakill 2d Dimps design, became the band-aid they slapped over their lack of Sonic understanding.
I'm starting to think the only "Amazing 3d Sonic game" we'll ever see in our lifetimes will be a fangame or a Sonic-inspired Spiritual Successor.
I mean like, they did mention at this year's Sonic Pannel that a new game is being created so...
I think I should bring this thread back to life.
THERE'S STILL THE SONIC THE HEDGEHOG MOVIE
I think just about everyone has either forgotten about it, given up on it, or couldn't care less.
