ChrisGlass They'll fuck it up. It's Sega. They always fuck it up.

Nick How long before Sega starts making official Sonic porn?

BurntToShreds I just hope they make Knuckles and Tails playable, so it'd be like the good ol' days with Sonic 3 & Knuckles.

Yeah, I'm suggesting what they should do. God only knows what will happen when it comes out. I'm no pessimist, but the future looks bleak.

RaNkeri Sounds promising.

Now if they would just ax all the post mega drive era characters.

And I sure hope we get the old tubby Sonic back instead of the modern anime version.

Phoenix Gamma But Unleashed was unvieled the same way. Oh shit, old school Sonic! Wait...you're holding forward an awful lot...and those are Quick Time Events. Okay why am I playing a bad beat 'em up and werewolves do NOT do THAT.

Plus, this is a tiny development window. Unleashed came out last year, so either they started this immediately after their last game (they would. It's not like Sega makes much money from other games these days) or they waited a few months to start it, resulting in about a year of development time from a company that has done everything it can to rape its mascot dry of any potential sales it can bring them.

There was a post written up about a year ago by a guy from Sega Europe who met the Japanese dev team, talking about how they didn't even want to make Sonic games, but had to because that's the only thing that sells in western countries for them (Sonic bombs in Japan).

I really have no reason to believe this is different from the last reboot (Unleashed) or the reboot before that (Sonic the Hedgehog 2006) or the reboot before that (Secret Rings) or the reboot before that (Sonic Rush).

Zhukov But that has been the reaction to 99% of Sonic games over the past decade, and nothing has changed. To my eyes I see it cheaper to make a shit game in one year and make mediocre sales, than it is to take five or six years to make a great game and sell only reasonably better.

They pump out a new Sonic game every year, make budget, and start again. If they announced this new game to be released in 2012 I would maybe be getting my hopes up, it would prove they are in it for the long(ish) haul. A decent next-gen Sonic game is also one of the signs of the Apocalypse, and project needlemouse could coincide with the Mayan prediction for the end of the world.

I find this easy to believe. I think SEGA is responding to the reaction of how upset the consumers got when they realized that the final product wasn't more like the Sonic 2.5D demo they saw first.

This. This right here.

Phoenix Gamma That's what everyone thought Unleashed would be. They showed trailers of a 2.5D Sonic, and this catchy music, and we all thought they finally "got it". It was going to be a great reboot.

Fast forward to Stretch Armstrong the WolfHog pretending to be both Kratos and the Prince of Persia, which took up more game time than the actual Sonic stages.

Nice use of your best franchise Sega you cocksmokers.

Zhukov Sonic 3 is probably one of my favourite games of all time. Sonic and Knuckles was also awesome, and I liked the Sonic Rush games on DS.
Sep 10th, 2009 09:16 AM
stevetothepast sonic 3 is better than sonic 2 dim. Sonic 3 IMO is the best sonic to date.
Sep 10th, 2009 08:59 AM
Dimnos If there was a good Sonic game since 2 then I have blocked it out with all the other crap. If this turns out to be any good I wont know because its too little too late and Im not buying. The Sonic franchise is dead.
Sep 10th, 2009 08:58 AM
Phoenix Gamma Either this game:

A) Is an HD Remake of Sonic 1, hence the old logo

or B) a game where Sonic is a fire-breathing Vampire.
Sep 10th, 2009 08:19 AM
Zhukov I am too hurt to be excited by this. Sonic unleashed was supposed to be their return to form. If it's good, it's great, if it's shit, I wont get disappointed.
Sep 10th, 2009 06:56 AM
Chojin the genesis sonics were pretty brotacular, brah
Sep 10th, 2009 03:04 AM
Guitar Woman The crowning moment of the game's horribleness is the scene where you're talking to some scientist with no eyes, and the scene keeps cutting away to your little fairy douchebag sidekick for comic relief while he complains about how hungry he is. He goes, I'LL JUST DIE IF I DON'T EAT SOMETHING, and then keels over, and a little ghost him comes out of his corpse and makes this WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH WNAH noise fucking over and over and over and over again. It's like having Zeldasbiggestfan imitate the low health alert from Zelda by pinching his nostrils shut and doing the sound. For 5 minutes. Without stopping.

This is viewed by Sonic Team as a hilarious aside.


Oh and uh the game's pretty awful too, but I also hated the Genesis Sonics so take that as you will.

Guitar Woman Did I tell you guys I actually played Sonic Unleashed?

I did.
