Sonic Riders: Zero Style
Somehow, Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity manages to look worse in these screenshots than in the last ones-- jaggier, with simpler geometry and less lighting effects. Have Sega's artists implemented a "pay per polygon" program? We doubt it's anything that complex-- it's much more likely that they're just reusing the already-rough-looking engine from last generation's Sonic Riders game.
Sonic fans: we know you love the character, and that you associate strongly with the earlier games. We know that some of you out there collect the comics and loved the Jaleel White-voiced cartoon. We know that it's even possible that you've enjoyed one or two Sonic games since Sonic Adventure 2.
But you have to stop, for the good of the series. No amount of Sonic fandom justifies buying what Sega is selling. Just ... stop, and force Sega to either improve their output or let the series die in dignity.
