Jesus Christ, it's Emerald Coast. Sonic the Hedgehog wins two points. Emerald Coast in Sonic adventure was one of those times where I just stood in the store staring at the display with my jaw on the floor. For the win.

Wow. Sonic looks really sexy. I hope to God this is a return to form for the little blue guy. He's been wallowing in mediocrity for far too long.

Beautiful screens... I'm still leery on the game though. It's SEGA... the last truely great thing they made was F-Zero GX/AX.

I don't know, going by the trailer, this game seems to be steering more towards the Shadow the Hedgehog route than the Sonic we all know and used to love. That being said, graphically it looks fantastic.

I'm buying for the Sonic stuff. The Shadow stages are for silly emo children, and I'd rather drink gasoline than play through that sh*t.

Let's just hope it dosen't turn into another "3 Sonic stages & 15 Shadow stages" deal. If this one sucks, I'm done for keeps. I'll always love that poor beaten little blue bastard no matter what they do to him. That dosen't mean I'll stand around and watch the beatings. I expect the Sonic sections of this game to kick ass, and they better. Heck, now that Naka is finally gone from Sonic Team, maybe it's got a chance. Naoto Oshima (see: the man who actually created the fu*king character and created the old style we adored) is even working as a stylistic advisor part time from Artoon. Still, the sight of Emerald Coast makes me think of the beautiful old times.

*Rest in Peace Dreamcast*

:cry: :cry:


...please God, don't let this one suck.

That story trailer for the game was completely ridiculous. They need to stop taking the games' story so seriously!

SEGA needs to realize that all people really want from a Sonic game is to run around really fast, jump on some stuff, and avoid pits of death while grabbing rings and finding the fastest way through a level...

Really, how hard would it be do make that?

True that, Barky. Sonic doesn't need a story to be awesome, it's like Mario in that respect. I don't have very high hopes for this, so maybe I'll be pleasently surprised.

Sonic Wii, anyone?

Wow Shadow Of Colossus rings a bell with these ones O_O

Exactly. I was just fine with the limited in-game storytelling (without dialog) that took place in the 16-bit games. Anything more than that in this type of game is unnecessary in my opinion.

While that is the basis of any Sonic game, there's more to it than that. The Sonic Advance series and Sonic Rush were 2D platformers that accomplished those basics, but there was something missing that made them not quite as fun as the original series. Maybe it had something to do with the level design...

I know exactly what was wrong with "Sonic Rush": The "story". All those annoying animals talking to each other in those awful voices... bah!

Haha, you have a point there. Still, there was something about the level design that made those games not as enjoyable for me as the 16-bit games.

It probably had to do with all the horrid enemy placement and bottomless pits that made you memorize the level before you could beat it.

Jesus CHRIST. These are BEAUTIFUL.
This game better be amazing.
I'm counting on you, SEGA.

Not that I'm going to play for at least a couple years...

I need money. :cry:

Yeah, as if one crappy knock off wasn't enough. Do they ever learn?

The picture is telling me "no".

What the hell is that? D:<

I dunno, but it's probably your fault. >:[

They need to get rid of all these extra characters. The only good ones are Sonic, Tails and Knuckles.

+2 points for Sonic the Hedgehog. Sweet Dreams (Sonic 2 ending music) for the MOTHERFU*KING WIIIIIIN!!!!!!!!!!

Sonic's gettin' laid tonight!

I second that! lolz

WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED?

Eggman got lyposuctoin?

Where's Knuckles and Tails?

Sonic's into beastiality?

WHERE'S AMY?

SONIC + AMY. NOT SONIC + LITTLE HUMAN GIRL.

WHY IS SONIC SO BIG?!

AND WHY IS THERE ANOTHER HEDGEHOG?


I'm so pissed right now. Jesus.

By the way...

This is Mephiles, right? It just looks like a frozen Shadow. D:>

TMB, stop with the retro game stuff... You're making me go back and play all of this stuff every time you talk them...

19, 65, 9, 17 FTW!

Crazy thing, just looked up the sound test codes for Sonic 2... 1,9,9,2,1,1,2,4 is for debug. The game came out on 11/24/1992 in Europe. LOLLERSKATES!

I'm going to come out and say this game is going to be mediocre at best. We're going to get some totally cool Sonic levels, then we'll get completely worthless sh*t from Shadow and that cum stain hedgehog.

And is anyone else creeped out by the scenes with Sonic and that girl? Not only does it look completely stupid and akward to have a realistic looking human interacting with a cartoony looking blue animal, but she totally seems to be giving Sonic the eye. The "story" is going to be sooooooooo bad.

Mediocre for SEGA's better then they've been doing lately. As usual we're leaving F-Zero GX/AX out of that assesment.

Wow, that trailer was even more painful to watch than the last one...

Knowing that Sonic is being used this way as a form of entertainment kinda makes my penis go concave. It's such bad form, and the story isn't helping, either. Hannah's right, where exactly is Amy in all of this? And where's Tails? Why is there so many Sonic's? WHATEVER HAPPENED TO JUST RUNNING THROUGH LEVELS LIKE THE OLD DAYS?!

http://img53.imageshack.us/img53/6910/action0404mp6.jpg

Tails, present and accounted for, running through levels, solo, no mechas, and no "catch up with Sonic" bullsh*t. Also, that's not Emerald Coast. It's Wave Ocean Zone.

Yes, I expect the story to be mediocore crap with Final Fantasy quality CGI cinemas. Who cares. I'm buying it for the kickass Sonic/Tails stages. Fu*k everything else alltogether.

Damn stright brotha'. F-Zero for the win.

At the very least, the game looks like it will be as much fun as Sonic Adventure, from a Sonic perspective, and as hard as it is to say, I'd rather do melee combat with Shadow the Emohog than fish with Big the Lardass Cat.

Beastality for the TOTAL loss.

I honestly don't think Sonic translates well to 3D. Look at those GBA Sonic games, even Sonic Rush. Those were pretty good. So obviously SEGA and Sonic Team still know how to make a good Sonic game. I just think when you add the complication of a 3D world to something as one note as Sonic's "hold down right on the d-pad and jump when necessary" that it dilutes what the franchise is all about. I don't know. They could also end up over complicating the level design like a couple of the Sonic levels in previous games. Complicated level structure with multiple paths works well in a 2D environment, but when you have to stop in a Sonic game and look around to see where you need to go...that's no fun at all. I'll probably still get this game, just for Sonic, because his stuff looks very SA like, which isn't bad at all. It's the other douche bags I'm pissed about.

Spreading the truth brotha'.

Haha

I just watched the trailer and I don't know what to think. The Sonic levels definitely remind me of SA which is awesome but the other levels look like they will completely blow. And the CGI Final Fantasy scenes are definitely not needed in a Sonic game. Stupid SEGA...

I just got out of Sonic (with exception to the Sonic X cartoon... i liked the first 2 seasons for some reason) after he started 3-D games. I mean, I do like Shadow to an extent (and that Crock isn't too bad either... but it's hard for me not to like a cartoon crock) but a WHITE Sonic? Pardon me for dusting off an old Chestnut but... WTF?!?!

And I really hate the new "Scrawny" Eggman. And I was getting used to acid trippy funkadelic style Eggman.

>>And the CGI Final Fantasy scenes are definitely not needed in a Sonic game.<<

Not needed, unnecssisary6, and just out of place. Sonic, like Mario in my mind, should stay in a cartoon world of animals wearing shoes and humans characatured (or in Sonic's case, aside of Eggman, non-existant).
