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

Armchair designer criticisms HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Least they aren’t just different colored sonic’s.

Fixed it for you.

They all seem fine. Just the usual fantasy-anthro character designs.

What Street Smarts? THERE’S NO STREETS.

Cookie Cutter designers.

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh. Yes and no. I don’t think they’re necessarily generic, they do seem to fit that basic cartoon aesthetic that Sonic certainly fits into. Whether or not it’s the most fitting is probably up for debate, they don’t exactly look like Sonic characters. But there’s definitely a charm to it. I can imagine them being the characters you get jobs from if this is going to be anything like OG Jak and Daxter.

Looks like SDCC will have an updated demo of sorts for Sonic Boom

Sonic Boom game drops November 18th. 3DS game drops on the 11th

Someone mentioned Sonic Underground so i must say this.

In episode 1 when Sonic breaks into the base the bad guys didn’t it was Sonic all they had was a blurry shot of his behind. So they pulled up their computer and they had a database of different creatures Asses and cross referenced it with Sonic’s ass. The best part is in most of the pictures the animals don’t know that their picture was taken but there was a Leopard/Cheetah that was looking back at the Camera somewhat posing for it. The database is at 15:39

Underground was ass.

Shadow design is more or less the same with just new gloves and shoes, AND NO BANDAGES

also its up in the air on his appearance in the show or the games

Glad to see Metal Sonic on board for Boom. He’s my favorite villain of the series. Shadow can fuck off though. Don’t care about what that nigga gonna angst about this time.

Shadow isn’t angsting anymore…Shadow the Hedgehog was all about him dealing with his past stuff and he’s over it now.

Hmmmm I don’t know about this list…

That list has some problems. Im not sure how sonic cd ranked above sonic 3 and knuckles an how colors is above generations. Really strange placement

curious on how they are going to write him in boom, I hope he is not organic and legit hedgehog this time

he is smiling but its a dickish smirk, lets see where this goes although I have little faith considering knuckles

Thinking about this earlier and Shadow Ace’s comment reminded me…I had forgot for a moment that this is a separate universe from the mainline games so Shadow’s personality and background have yet to be revealed. Given what we know of the other characters in comparison to their mainline personalities…they could very well give him his angst back and further exaggerate it to higher levels. I reeeeally hope they don’t do that…

As far as I’ve seen it feels like Knuckles is the only one who you could argue has a different personality in boom than in the other games. I’m not the biggest fan of shadow although I don’t greatly dislike him or anything, so I’d like for them to take advantage of the fact that this is supposed to a more humorous project. Maybe not have him take himself so seriously. Nothing I’ve seen so far really strikes me as hilarious or anything, but I feel some charm.

Sega hasn’t officially put it up yet but here

Sonic Boom Shattered Crystal - Shadow Trailer

Looks like he’s at least going to cameo in the 3DS game.

On my path to look for Smash Bros. 3DS music I came across this.

Apparently Jun and Co. released a 2 disc remastering of the character vocal tracks from the Adventure era along with a new remix of ā€˜It Doesn’t Matter’ using the Adventure 2 version as a base. It also includes the instrumentals. Track list doesn’t have ā€˜Open Your Heart’ or ā€˜Live and Learn’ on it since those aren’t technically character themes.

Here’s the remix for those interested

And in the process of trying to listen to some of the other remastered tracks on youtube I ended up coming across a remastered instrumental of ā€˜Open Your Heart’ that’s apparently on a separate release on itunes?

For quick comparison

Edit: Always prefered SA1’s version of ā€˜It Doesn’t Matter’ and was always miffed that they didn’t have a instrumental for it aaaand this album fixes that.

Edit 2: wow ā€˜Unknown from M.E.’ SA1 instrumental sounds soooo damn good. Dat BRASS…Dat BASS.
