So talk about Sonic the Hedgehog.

I wanna start with sonic unleashed, which is basically the only reason I really started this thread. There's a real ad and an anouncement.

Basically they've got this "hedgehog engine" which lets them switch "seamlessly" from 2-D to 3-D. So its like half original sonic (side-scrollin') and half Secret Rings (on rail running).

They say that the game has day and night in it, so thats probably how the werewolf thing works.

It's going to come out "holiday season 2008" on Wii, X-box 360, PS3, and PS2 (yep, even PS2).

The story is that Robotnik has broken the world into pieces, which I'm sure they've done before (if you can tell me which game, I'd appreciate it), and Sonic needs the Chaos Emeralds to fix it.

Discuss.

It's kind of confusing to be flying to the right one second, and then have the camera change so that you're flying forward

Oh. I guess... but I bet once you get used to it, it becomes simple.

People have gotten used to lots of odd video game mechanics, so I think it's safe to say we'll get used to this one too.

I'm looking forward to Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood. Mostly because BioWare is developing it.

Ever play sonic battle? That was good, and It was a slow game. But, can't judge a Sonic game by what you've heard/seen.

Sonic battle looks pretty meh

Besides, I hated games with 2D graphics with forced gimmicky 3D.

I just didnt like sonic and the secret rings at all. That's why I despise the on-rails idea. I hope they at least fix the wii controls, and make it bearable on the joystick systems.

Lately, it looks like sonic has been becoming mario-esque in the sense that theyre just throwing him in any game with no regard to anything. (Of course these guys would play tennis with their mortal enemies that have tried to kill them on several occasions. Who wouldnt?)

I wanna try sonic and the dark brotherhood, but only because I just got a DS and am craving games. I played sonic rush. It was kinda meh. I still havent played Rush Adventure.

Sonic is pretty gay.

reasons:

1. He's a furry.

2. Sega now fails at making good sonic games.

3. The internet ruined sonic for me.

All characters that Aren't Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Robotnik, Amy, Or Metal Sonic should go die.

That's right, all 400 of them

Sonic has basicly turned into something like Disney.

Anything with Sonic in it, they expect people to buy it.

Since 2003 or whenever the next game came out, the series died.

He also sucks at SSBB.

In my opinion, the only good Sonic games were Sonic 1, 2, 3, & Knuckles.

Sonic Advance 1, 2 and 3 weren't bad, and Sonic Rush was okay.

There's a werewolf Sonic? Wow. First I hear of that nonsense. Good job, Sega.

Sonic Unleashed bares a striking resemblance to Mario Galaxy. Just puttin' it out there.

But don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. I still play Sonic Mega Collection on my Gamecube regularly. Gotta love fast-paces side-scrolling action, it's killah! Oh, and I <3 the music in the first couple Sonic the Hedgehog games. :mrgreen:

You guys didn't know about Wolf Sonic? Yeah. Seems like someone played Twilight Princess a little too much.

Also Sonic RPG? No. Just...no.
