Tellyn Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 Just as soon as this site's name is changed to Wii-Europe... And also it's called Sonic and the Secret of the Rings! Jeez, some people... EGADS! The site I read the name off was WRONG! I shall write and angry letter!
Kurtle Squad Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 Looks better than BWii and SMC grapichaly. That's because they're in earlier development I assume and still have Gamecube Graphics.
Melainon Posted August 29, 2006 Posted August 29, 2006 There is a new trailer up at Gametrailers, called Desert Dash Gameplay, which show off some other environments than the desert. It also shows "The Secret of the Rings" as a tentative titel. I highly recommend anyone here to see it, it looks really good.
DiemetriX Posted August 29, 2006 Posted August 29, 2006 Tnx Malainon here is the link for those who are to lazy. http://www.gametrailers.com/gamepage.php?id=3158
solitanze Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 This game isn't just a cheap family friendly substitute for Sonic The Hedgehog on PS3 is it?
Hellfire Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 I would say the PS3/360 version is an expensive substitute for thw Wii version :P
solitanze Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 Well as long as the PS3 version pales in comparison to the Wii Sonic game with review scores and sales, i'm happy. YES, my 100th post, the GREATEST MOMENT OF MY LIFE!
ShadowV7 Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 Some new screens and with control captions.
blender Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 that level looks pants. puts me right off this one
knightendo Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 all those levels look fantastic, and solitanze, a "family friendly" sonic? what are u expecting from the ps3/360 version, blood and guts? from what i've read, the ps3/360 version is just another boring 3d sonic adventure with HD graphics, whereas this is PROPER sonic, taking the gameplay back to what he does best can't wait! this has the potential (along with madden etc) to really show which of the new consoles is best by far :D:D
McMad Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 I love your optimism Knightendo, but i'm still uneasy about this game after being dazzled by the PS3 and Xbox 360 game. Maybe if the game will sell shit on those consoles and the Secret of the Rings sells very well on the Wii we may see a port of the game. Now i'm being optimistic...

Now i'm being optimistic... but they're completely different games. the other version may look like the cat's cajounes, but it is basically sonic heroes/shadow the hedgehog/sonic adventure with better graphics. this exclusive game has even the multi-format games mags in a hype 'cause it's bringing the sonic gameplay back thanks to the wiimote.
Goron_3 Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 The PS3 version of Sonic looks SO poor. Terrible camera and fiddly controls!
McMad Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 Am I the only person that liked Sonic Heroes? And also the two Sonic Adventure games were great fun, on the Sonic levels....
ShadowV7 Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 Am I the only person that liked Sonic Heroes? And also the two Sonic Adventure games were great fun, on the Sonic levels.... Your not the only one ,I like Sonic Heroes,the 2 Sonic Adventures and Shadow The Hedgehog.I thought they were good but other people don't I thought ther were all fun,only bad thing about Shadow to me was the 'missino' part,if you missed something you had to go back and look for something.
Hellfire Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 Am I the only person that liked Sonic Heroes? And also the two Sonic Adventure games were great fun, on the Sonic levels.... Sonic Heroes is the worst Sonic I've ever played, the Adventure's Sonic and Shadow levels are nice, but this: meh
Jamba Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 Sonic Heroes is the worst Sonic I've ever played, the Adventure's Sonic and Shadow levels are nice, but this: meh QFT. The 3D Sonics have got progressively worse in my opinion, not that I've played STH yet. But some on! Heroes sucked big time. I would burn it through all of the levels but I would die every 5 seconds due to some horrific level design. Controlling the characters was like trying to swallow an inflated balloon, only to have it pop in your face (aka you fly into the infinite abyss and die!). There was very little game mechanic variation and far too many difficult rather than fun rail sections. I had this with some of the later bits of SA2 as well. I really hope that they have dug into this format for Wildifre (or Lost Rings was it?) and bring all those lovely bits that were great about the 2D ones. Speed, lots of routes, neck braking changes in direction, great bosses, thumping music and lots of rings and power-ups perfectly placed to temp you into the jaws of death!
CoolFunkMan Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 I thought that Heroes sucked, but Shadow was a good game. Mind you, I didn't see Shadow as a Sonic game, just part of the Sonic universe. This does look great though, deffinately better than the two titles I just mentioned. Although I'll probably have to get used to the Wii before I can call this brilliant. I love your optimism Knightendo, but i'm still uneasy about this game after being dazzled by the PS3 and Xbox 360 game. Maybe if the game will sell shit on those consoles and the Secret of the Rings sells very well on the Wii we may see a port of the game. Now i'm being optimistic... I also doubt that there's gonna be a Wii version of the 360/PS3 Sonic. Why would they port it if we've got Secret of the Rings instead? Methinks Sonic 2006 will be quite popular too... Although I have to agree that Sonic 2006 looks a lot better that SatSotR. I pefer it's epic style tbh.
Indie James Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 The music sounds like it's done by the guys who did Riders which now is a really bad thing Yeh I don't think Crush 40 did the music for Riders so im hoping they come back and do the music for this game because there music fucking rules! Am I the only person that liked Sonic Heroes? And also the two Sonic Adventure games were great fun, on the Sonic levels.... It was ok but IMO it was def the worst sonic game released. Nothing beats the old school sonic games on the mega drive. Sonic 3 and knuckles is still my favourite game of all time, followed by sonic 1!
Retro_Link Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 When watching the videos of this level, I don't really like how 'on-rails' it is! I know Sonics all about flat out speed in a line, but sometimes the path constraints look rediculous and the routes really wierd. You really can't deviate AT ALL in many cases!
Hellfire Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 You can't deviate from a path in Sonic Adventures either when you'r playing with Sonic and only in Rush there are multiple paths, don't see what's the big deal. NOt to mention that most certainly there will be alternate paths like in most on rail games. I always thought Sonic should be like this when it moved to 3D.

NOt to mention that most certainly there will be alternate paths like in most on rail games. I always thought Sonic should be like this when it moved to 3D.No what I mean is, there seems to be a number of times when you can't move from side to side at all whilst following your path, just like you are on rails and all you are controlling is the speed.
Hellfire Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 I highly doubt that, the only times you cant move are when you're grinding.
Retro_Link Posted September 14, 2006 Posted September 14, 2006 I highly doubt that, the only times you cant move are when you're grinding.Watch the video of the new level(s); http://www.gametrailers.com/player.php?id=12759&type=wmv&pl=game The first level Sega showed us still looks fantastic, but the other two just seem very linear.
