The Sonic the hedgehog thread V.7 2017 its been generations since the last good sonic game

^^Eggman was perfect…actually evil instead of a joke character

edit: Knuckles hands O_o
Id pay good money if this was a reboot for the games

Oh you were one of the people that got to surf on that mass of craziness along with Cutman? I saw at least like 3 other people surfing the crowd at various times. I was mostly in either the arcade or the casual/tourney area mostly playing street fighter.

Shadow is definitely bad but if I had to choose the lesser of evils I’d have to go with Shadow simply because 06 has pretty much the same camera issues as Shadow plus the random ass glitches and gravity bs to contend with…oh yeah and LOADING…

I was going to see this at Magfest too and then the line got cut off and I missed my chance. I already read a few comments about it on GAF while I was on my lunch break so whatever small expectations I had for it to begin with has now turned into none lol. I’m fully prepared to cringe at cheesiness.

i would rather have eggman as a joke character, and good no i wouldnt want this as a reboot.
its interesting but if anything, they have several decades of comic book characters and writers ready and willing to write for them.

also i like shadow, i think he is cool
i dont know what that has to do with anything, but i think he is cool
anyone notice in each game they keep making him stronger, its kinda weird.
i think no one at sega payed attention , they just kinda went with it, though it would make sense why they keep making his and sonic’s fights undecided.
and if anyone else besides “dio brando” the hedgheog comes out the victor it isnt cannon
whoah i am on a sonic tangent
uh…uh…

emerald get?

why
;o;
you hurt my fanboy feelings

So rumors are pointing at the next Sonic game getting revealed possibly in Feb

we’ll see how how this goes.

The shadow and silver gameplay was flawed by design. If it’s not about fast platforming I generally don’t want to put up with it.

.
I would argue otherwise, I think if Sega tried, and remade 06 now, the game would be fantastic.

Would be kinda hard to remake something that doesn’t exist…>.>

Fighting enemies was a chore in Sonic Heroes when the homing attack actually worked, the designs of the levels would need to be totally overhauled. Throwing boxes at enemies as Silver could not have been good for a Sonic game, it’s better than fishing but then again what isn’t?

Yes it wouldnt have been good for a sonic game, However what if it wasn’t a sonic game.
Or lets say a traditional one, while shadows running levels could work they just need work, they have worked before and that’s why he is still here. I believe that Sonic should stop being Sonic, or rather they should separate the franchise into two

Mobius sonic
And Regular sonic

the sonic fanbase is split between those who like all the characters and stuff ( the larger of the two), and those who would rather go back to sonic running around, they dont invest to much into sonic besides the occasinal game.

So i offer you this suggestion, why not make onics that satiate that need of the minority.

Then make a game, that can break the mold, it can be something different. It wouldn’t have to be held to the limitations of the traditional franchise, Give it an interesting stories, introducing characters from places and such.

Shadow the hedgehog when there planning this was supposed to be like dmc, however it ended up sonic with weapons. They felt like they had to be chained to the traditions of sonic, why not split up game-play.Not too much, but a few characters that do different things , but designed very well.

THANK YOU! I wanna roll around at the speed of sound. Anything less in a sonic game is unacceptable!

yes yes
No it exists and we have to deal with it
Even though it got reconned out of history

also in this new game, while i am a shadow fan, i hope he is not in it…
I love the black and red guy, but he is like the most powerful being on the planet, but sega decides to just let him sit back and let sonic handle things. When the damn near invincible hedgehog with the abilities to control time and space, powers that are still yet untapped is just sitting there, if i was sonic and crew i would make shadow do everything even if i needed a gallon of milk from the store.

sorry…nobody wants to revisit that game unless they’re doing it for entertainment purposes or they’re masochists…save for that one guy on Gaf. It will NEVER come back and the fact that it wrote itself out of happening is probably one of the best things to happen in the Sonic franchise aside from Big the Cat possibly getting killed off.

Don’t remind me about big the cat
why wasn’t blaze in the first sonic and sega allstars racing, why did it have to be big

does anyone in this forum read the comics?

First off: Fuck this idea that mobius is anything more than what Americans came up with, besides the Sonic CD manual (which was generally a lie) I’ve never seen it mentioned outside of the cartoons or comics (which are like Sonic’s Ultimate universe to use a Marvel comparison).

I like all (most) the characters, I’d love a game that was all platforming all the time as other characters like in the classics.

I think we can all agree Sonic has far too many characters, no more new characters.

Shadow the Hedgehog would not have been better if it was DMC with Shadow, it would have been better if they did his origin story without him using guns and vehicles. If they wanted to make a DMC style game don’t use Sonic, I don’t see Capcom using DMC when they wanna make a speed platformer and I don’t see Nintendo using Mario when they wanna make an FPS. Make sense?

I’m not even that big a fan of the comics, but Mobius, regardless of its origins, is a much cooler creation than a vast majority of the garbage in Sonic’s game universe. Don’t be hating on Mobius too much.

Also Sonic CD sucks.

Too many characters isn’t the problem, and never was. Shitty mechanics and zero depth to the game were always the issue. In Sonic 2 and 3&K, there was actually platforming and some semblance of strategy. Dimps-era 2D Sonics and like every 3D game sticks with the “hold UP or RIGHT and occasionally jump until the level ends” formula. That’s a problem, not characters.

Shadow the Hedgehog is meh all around, but I think the problem is that it was just Sonic Adventure 2 speed stages with poorly implemented treasure hunts and no attempts to fix a formula that was mediocre since Sonic Adventure 1.

Irony: there’s a Sonic fan game made in the DOOM engine, and it looks pretty fun. So no FPS hate. :wink:

Mobius is just a name for the magical land Sonic comes from the comics called it mobius.

Sonic CD does not suck, I read your review on it, I see where you’re coming from but it does not suck.

Guess where the mechanics come from? The new characters so it’s the exact same issue. Dimps era 2-D works when they’re allowed to do their own thing like in Sonic Advance and Sonic Rush, Sonic 4 sucks.

The 3-D speed stages from the Adventure era were great for their time and I think with more polish could easily be the definitive way to play Sonic in 3-D

I love fan games but that probably feels nothing like a Sonic game (also, link me).

Mobious is Far better than whatever tehy are doing with sonic in japan my dude

I dissagree, do you know how many frigging mario characters there aree, its called world building.
I guess next DCs comics problem is that they have more characters than the the top 6 in the JL, its called world building.

I believe it would have been better, it would have been quite interesting.
and as far as your nintendo example goes
Luigi’s mansion
Shadow hack and slasher, it wouldnt be that hard

since the people who are really good at the hack and slashy run under sega now

Eh Characters aren’t the issue
Its Sega being lazy.

I don’t blame silver for 06, i blame sonic team introducing a mechanic and half assing it.

What Mario characters? The ones they use like once in an RPG? Or the generic enemies that get to play sports?

The difference between DC comics and Sonic is that Sonic is a game series and game series are about gameplay wheras in DC they can release 20+ issues a month game development is a little more time consuming.

I don’t see the connection between the Luigi’s Mansion and this. It was still fitting for the series, he didn’t have a gun and swear all the time.
