Sonic Riders? Were any of those games any good?
I don’t get it. Sega took the F-Zero License in GX and ran with that shit. Fastest game ever and great to boot. But they can’t do shit with their mascot?
Fucking sad.
The first Sonic Riders I played and was actually decent. It wasn’t a standout tite by any means but there was some fun to be had out of it.
I didn’t play Zero Gravity so I can’t give my own impressions about it but the general media consensus is that it was worst than the first.
And also to be fair they did make Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing which was actually a solid title.
Am I the only one who had any fun with sonic and the secret rings?
Only if it looks like a higher res, HD version of [media=youtube]3qEAc2xu1RU]**this[/B[/media], then yes.
I heard it was good. But since its wii exclusive = no-one cares.
Had it flaws but I did have fun with it…way more than that other game that came out at around the same time.
Wasn’t actually talking about 2D animation I’m talking about the same group of people who did [media=youtube]oaDH7AuxQKI"]this and [URL=“http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7QOdvxWAac&fmt=22”[/media]. It’s like Pixar quality visuals. I wouldn’t mind seeing more of this in more short movie type deals.
I don’t even know if Sega has a big 2D department anymore since they outsourced the advance games to dimps when they came out. Personally I think I’d like to see what Wayforward could do with the franchise.
Edit:
opinion
It’s OK, but visual quality-wise, the CGI for Unleashed and Colours look far better.
Still the guy made the vid with what he can so I’ll give him credit for the work he poured into it :tup:
of course…considering it’s 1 guy he should definitely get props for it. Even though Monty Oum’s stuff is fucking beast comparing it to the animation work that goes into something like Advent Children wouldn’t be fair would it?
Edit:
oh yeah…someone made a Jazz Scat version out of Sonic 4’s soundtrack.

Gotta say the visuals and music look amazing, and that stage looks pretty interesting to try and finish as fast as possible
Man I wish this game could come out to PS3 and 360 X3
that just got annoying after the first two songs…
anywho sonic free riders anyone? I guess im the only fan of that series…lol
[media=youtube]j8ae2FISRDo[/media]

The full list of the cast got revealed via the credits of Sonic Free Riders:
Roger Craig Smith (Sonic)
Kate Higgins (Tails) (Wave)
Mike Pollock (Eggman/Robotnik)
Kirk Thornton (Shadow)
Wally Wingert (Vector)
Cindy Robinson (Amy)
Karen Strassman (Rouge)
Michelle Ruff (Cream)
Mike Mycheck (Michael Yurchak) (Jet)
Kent Hampton (Travis Willingham) (Knuckles) (Storm)
and Kyle Hebertis now Big the Cat, Keith Silversteinis Silver, and Laura Baileydoes Blaze and Omochao. So pretty much the only person who survived the 4kids purging was Mike Pollock.
there’s some of the voices posted online for thos interested:

[media=youtube]iNiaDRSSJ6Y&feature=related"[/media] (Craig isn’t doing the same sonic voice that he’s doing in Colors)

I reccomend turning your volume down a bit other wise Omachao might melt your brain and these are like 7-9 minute audio clips. That being said I definitely like Shadow and Rouge’s new voices.
also the [media=youtube]30ecHD-DeBY"[/media] of Sonic Colors from that german gamepro is up and has some nice gameplay in it.
Shadow’s New Voice
I came…twice
They did a really great job with the new cast everyone sounds good…except Amy
Rouge sounds like Juri from street fighter 4
Silver’s voice sounds familiar
Amy sounds like prairie dawn from sesame street
Shadow sounds like igginot from Aqua Teen Hunger Force…lol
Last i checked the last good legit sonic game from Sonic Team was Sonic and Knuckles not Sonic 1. Nice try though.
You need to check your facts again. Specifically, I don’t think you realize who actually made the game you mentioned.
Dr. B hangs ten on cosmic waves.
My nigga Shadow sounds like a G.
**About to be 9 more days till the release of Sonic Colors in the US.
Man…I want that hat and this game so bad!
So, anyone else besides me in this thread got the Untouchable Achievement in Sonic 4?**
Oh you silly goose actin like you know what you’re talkin bout.
Sonic in remix demo needs faster acceleration, faster top speed, much more bounce back after jumping on enemies, and the music needs to be more remixed not just be a slight variation of s2 music.
With those changes it could be as good as s2.
make sure to keep your hype in check…It’s better for a game to exceed your expectations than barely touching it at all.
Edit:
I actually was able to fully listen to all the different audio stuff from Free Riders and man…they made Shadow into even more of an ass. If he ever catches you hanging from a ledge by one hand I’m fully expecting him to stomp on your fingers now.
going from 2d in 4:3 to 3d in 16:9 is going to make any game seem like it feels a little different. i have the code and the physics are extremely close to the classic game’s physics (though not perfect, because of the way collisions are detected now). a close colleague of mine is helping to work on sonic fan remix (it’ll be using his game engine apparently) and i’ve been messing around with unity myself recently, so i’m going to see if there isn’t anything i can contribute.
listen to this man…
