I like the look of the game, it reminds me of the DC game. I hope they get formula right :)

As I suspected; this game is a revamped version of the Dreamcast game. And there goes Sonic as smooth as cgi in extreme resolution while the background suffers.

Looks not so hi-poly.. I think it's a game you must see in motion to like it..

Yeah, Sonic has serious AA\filtering applied while the background isn't so smooth, but that level doesn't look bad enough to be simply called a revamped DC version.
Everything in motion is smooth and looks great(you've seen videos?), and the fact that Sonic looks so much improved is a good thing. Compared to the videos, though, Sonic does look too smooth in these shots.

I just hope there will be more "action" stages in this game, less boring stuff.

I don't think it looks all that great either, some of the textures seem very lo-res.

I don't think it's just a revamped version of the DC game. I think the guys at SEGA put the whole orca scene thingy just for nostalgia's sake... which is cool for us who played the first SA.

In regards to graphics, it's true floor and BG textures don't look as sharp as Sonic himself, but I don't think it'll matter since you'll pass through at 200 mph....

Looking forward to this one :)

ofcourse sonic is rendered at higher resolution, when he's running so fast, his body is all that you would see clearly, you won't even notice the detail in the background (or the lack there of)

Not quite correct. The very first footage of next gen Sonic was rendered in-engine in realtime. There's never been any pre-rendered "target footage" of it, and it's mostly the angle of the shot that decides whether it looks great or not. Later shots seem to lean more towards what you'll actually be seeing when you play, as opposed to crazy zoom on the Sonic model to show it off.

Since when do screenshots of people/hedgehogs in mid air mean they can fly?

Sonic Jak-X Demolition Ratchet Gladiator Emerald Whale Beach Adventure.

They seriously need to fire who ever is responsible for the engine and world art. The xbox1 or gamecube could easily run this at 640x480.
