- "Sonic Mania!"
- Oh, we're playing Sonic?
We played one of the older Sonic games for React,
and that one was really cool.
Is this-- this is another old one.
It's pixelated. Okay, right?
- Oh, it's been so long, but yeah, it was frustrating.
- I just saw the trailer for this.
I'm actually really excited.
- (FBE) So despite how this may look,
Sonic Mania is actually a brand-new Sonic game
inspired by the original games.
It keeps the aesthetics and game play from the originals,
while updating a few of the mechanics and features.
- Okay, that's really cool, actually.
Just because something's new doesn't mean it needs
to be all vamped up.
- I was actually not allowed to have Game Boys or console devices
at all when I was a kid.
This was something that was forbidden from me,
so it's definitely a gem.
- Love it.
I mean, right now, I feel like we're all retro, right?
We all miss the past a little bit, so this is the perfect time.
I'm excited to see what's up with this.

So X is to jump. (rings chiming)

Okay, come on. Jump on this thing.
Yes, springs.
I'm just gonna avoid the bad guys.
(rings chiming) (box popping)
- All right.
This is-- yep, this reminds me it's exactly like the original.
- I just got the stars.
That means at the little touch anything,
and it will die as soon as I touch it, so this is the perfect time
to touch things when I need to be careful.
- What's amazing is people can speed-run this.

(checkpoint chiming) I'm just going to go as fast as I can.
(rings chiming) - Oh.
