Fierce_LiNk Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 I can see it getting mixed reviews, but I can also see it being very fun. The speed looks great in this game. Really looking forward to this.
KKOB Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 I expect it will be a solid 6/10 game that will actually be quite entertaining. Automatically will be one of the best 3D sonic games of all time. hehe then you'll argue that its helping to kill off the Wii
Ramar Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 I expect it will be a solid 6/10 game that will actually be quite entertaining. Automatically will be one of the best 3D sonic games of all time. While you're at it want to predict this weeks lotto numbers, I'm a bit short on cash.
solitanze Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 hehe then you'll argue that its helping to kill off the Wii Nah it will be good actually, Wii needs more variety from OTHER publishers. But this will probably not perform as well as Sonic The Hedgehog sales wise despite it being a terrible game which is a real shame. Societies standards have lowered in general, they lap up inferior games, music and movies and this current gen Sonic battle will be no different. A ratio of 3 to 1 i'm predicting in favor of Sonic The Hedgehog sales wise that is, not review score wise.
Mikey Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 It'll probs be shit. If it is, then I truely hope Nintendo some how get the rights to make all future Sonic games. Imagine if Mario went down the shitter like the Sonic games have? Man, just the thought is depressing..
solitanze Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 How do you think the gaming public would react to a merged Mario and Sonic game where they both are in the same game working together to fight a greater evil than whats been featured in their respective games combined?
McMad Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 I bet Raging Nintendo Fanboys would go beserk, especially the ones who think Smash Bros is now un-pure because Brawl has 3rd party characters in it. If the game was developed by Nintendo though I'd be all for it, I love cross-over games.

Currently BARE minimum I expect the game to feature Sonic and Megaman as well as Snake, but I wouldn't mind having 50 characters in the game, 10 of them being from third party franchises.
Nintendork Posted January 3, 2007 Posted January 3, 2007 I hereby coin the term: Sonic: train simulator. Thank you, I can have my nobel prize on Monday.
SpinesN Posted January 4, 2007 Posted January 4, 2007 Looks to me like this game is up in the air. Might prove to be the 3d sonic that should have come out years ago. Then again, if it's made by sonic team chances are it will be a pile of crap. Looks to much like an "on rails" game to me, but, given the fact that all other methods of 3d sonic games have failed this does have a chance.

Yeah I'm glad its happening to, you'll get hardcore megaman fans etc.. who simply have to buy the game just to see him in action and as result Nintendo sell another console so all good!

Sonic deserves to be in Smash Bros. His presence on Nintendo machines since Sega became a third party has been top notch. Such support should be rewarded. Fuck anyone who doesn't want to keep it pure. More the merrier.
Zechs Merquise Posted January 4, 2007 Posted January 4, 2007 This game is different :P Seriously, with the control scheme, this game will ROCK! lol yeah yeah, I reckon the odds on that happening would be pretty off the wall, but if you've got a tenner spare lol
ShadowV7 Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 New Sonic Trailer Sorry but already been posted in another page
ShadowV7 Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 Oh damn, sorry. No Worries,means I have the joy of watching it again.Can't for it!
Eddage Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 New Sonic Trailer Cheers for posting that again Tellyn, I'd forgotten about it but have now finally watched it. Have to say I'm very impressed with what I'm seeing! I really enjoyed most of the Sonic levels from the 3D Adventure games and this seems to be like them, if not better!
Domstercool Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 The trailer does look good, but I just hope that the automatic running doesn't make the game so linear that it becomes boring fast.
dazzybee Posted January 6, 2007 Posted January 6, 2007 I'm really looking forward to this game, but like a few others am I bit worried also - it doesn't 'look' like you have much control over sonic and with the camera angles being so wild (but pretty) then how accurate is that control?! It could be ana amazing proper Sonic 3D, or it could be a game you watch more than play - here's hoping for the former!
Fierce_LiNk Posted January 7, 2007 Posted January 7, 2007 To me, it seems like they're truely trying to make the first 'traditional' Sonic title, but in 3D. What I mean is, they're not trying to adapt the series to make it playable through 3D. Think about the old Super Mario games. 2D platform game. Not that much different to Sonic games at all. However, when it came to 3D, the series itself changed. Instead of making your way from one side of the level to the other, in one direction, you could change which way you walked, etc. I believe they tried to achieve this with the Sonic series, but one thing held it back. The Speed. Sonic has always been about the speed. Compare the old Sonic and Mario games together, and Sonic runs like lightning. It isn't easy to try and recreate that 2D feeling in 3D. Camera troubles come into play. I think we were given too much control over Sonic. Lets face it, in the classic Sonic games, we didn't give a crap about exploring, we just wanted to get from point A to point B as fast as we could. Multiple routes were also possible, however, but the pace of the game is slowed down the moment sonic stops to look around at his whereabouts. With this game, its sorta like you're watching the old 2D games but through a 3D perspective. Difference is, you can now move left or right. IMO, THIS is the way to get the perfect Sonic experience. We don't need to explore, we don't really need weapons, or even a story. It's about the speed. Pure adreneline.

solitanze Posted January 7, 2007 Posted January 7, 2007 A perfect opportunity for gameplay to win out over HD visuals eating it up to Sonic The Hedgehog HD, providing the final product is of actual quality.

I'm also worried about how much control we'll actually have over Sonic but should be fine. Having said that does anyone feel the levels look a bit dead? Like no bad guys around? The 2D Sonics were all about enemies all over the place.
