The Official Sonic the Hedgehog thread

Brawl soundtrack is just amazing. All of the remixes are just incredible. I vote Megaman for guest in the next SSB.

But I also just remembered that there is one Sonic game with music I hate: Secret Rings. Good lord that music is so repetitive and irritating.

Saturn version was actually better graphically if I remember correctly…think the bonus games were also different compared to it’s genesis counterpart. Wonder why they didn’t put that version on the mega collection…

^Dude that’s what I have been saying for ages

Never got to play it, might just DL the soundtrack
so who do u prefer for Sonic? Amy Rose or Princess Sally??

Sally FTMFW

I’m assuming that you mean of the female characters. I like Blaze. :slight_smile:

If you include the male characters too, I also rank Tails and Vector up there.

EDIT: Oh wow, I just realized that you meant “who should Sonic get with?” rather than “which do you prefer from a design standpoint?” Jeez I feel dumb.

Um, personally unless they mature Sonic’s personality I think he should remain without a “girl”. As is he seems to be, personality-wise, at that age where boys think girls have cooties. So he cares for Amy as a friend but isn’t interested in dating.

well I’ve heard it was irritating for some people really I still say the only REALLY cheesy track in that game was…

I already mentioned that before though…Guitar in that song is fuckin awesome though…too bad the lyrics are uh…yeah…

love this mostly because it has heavy guitar in the foreground with other instruments backing it up here and there. Especially love the lil piano part around :54 that kicks up in the song:rock:

Worth A Chance:

Seven Rings in Hand (crush 40 version):

I usually like Crush 40’s versions on things much better than the original…but this was the one time I heard their version of a track and actually prefered the original…

also…it’s like…late…and i’m feeling random…here’s something I did

[media=youtube]XjmXLxJkYiQ[/media]

SEND ME YOUR SURVEILLENCE TAPES…NAO!

Sorry, Night Palace was the only track from that game I liked. And I really, really hated Seven Rings in Hand. It’s set to the lowest possible chance of coming up on the Green Hill Zone stage in Brawl.

Well I guess I’m going to just DL that OST because I don’t plan on buying the game anytime soon, I’ve been craving some new game music.

Sonic Shorts Volume 3:

chaos…swiss roll?

LOL
Froggy telling off Big was the best one. Oh wait. Silver being lame again was also really funny.

Bleh. I played Zero Gravity some more this morning. It’s so maddening that I can’t get that last character to show up. I almost thing that there is some kind of special trigger to it, and I just don’t know what it is.

So, Gamestop is having this awesome sale so I went and bought Sonic and the Secret Rings (was 20 bucks new). I’m having fun with it so far. The controls aren’t as bad as some have made them out to be, though I do understand how frustrating it is to unlock better controls that should have been there in the first place. I think if they adjusted Sonic’s abilities so that all of the eventual move upgrades were default (minus some of the superflous ones like the back step or whatever) this game would have faired a lot better.

In other SEGA related news (and thus slightly off topic), I picked up SEGA Genesis collection for PS2 “new” (not sealed, but $10). Has a lot of cool games that I don’t have, 3 Phantasy Stars are a plus (barely played any of them). Also, I think this marks the 10th or so copy I have of the original Sonic the Hedgehog. Anyone else own more than one?

Having to charge your jump was my biggest complaint. In a game all about speed and fast reactions, it should have had an instant jump.

yyyyup…let’s see…it’s on the collection for the genesis, got it again for the gba shivers, got it on sonic mega collection…hmmm…well i guess I only have it 3 times

And yeah secret rings really isn’t a horrible game…some people have taken the game further in terms of speed running the damn thing that make my eyes go @.@ . I also understand why they had it set up the way they did so it would give people more things to look forward too on their adventure…sorta like in Metroid where Samus has all her shit at the ready at the start of the game then…‘OOPSEY DAISY!’…somehow she’s managed to trip over a rock that results in making her lose everything. That games a step in the right direction though and it’s good that we’re seeing that they notice this and actually are implementing a portion of it in unleashed.

IN OTHER NEWS… you guys check out the trailer for Dark Brotherhood yet?

Sonic Chronicles: Dark Brotherhood trailer

they even got the generic epic voice guy in it lol.

wow…the music that would have been for this game is…definitely something else…I dig it!

now looking at some of the released vids showcasing the game…uhhhh…I don’t know about that camera and the fish eye lens thing…it looked like it definitely had some potential going there but I’d be afraid to go too fast with sonic in those places for fear of zipping off into oblivion.

face palms at the argument about Sonic Adventure in the comments section

I can never get over just how shitty X-treme looks. god forbid the player has any fucking clue where they are going! and people think this would be good HOW?

music is nice though.

New gameplay trailer of Unleashed is up on IGN: http://xbox360.ign.com/dor/objects/14242719/sonic-unleashed/videos/sonic_unleased_trailer_061608.html

Unleashed looks good. DAMN good.

Dare I say they might not fuck this one up?

Damn the game looks fast as hell.

Fuck yeah, I hope Unleashed turns out good. That video was awesome.
