Werewolf Sonic.

/topic.

Also: ( from dictionary.com )

Werewolf: (in folklore and superstition) a human being who has changed into a wolf, or is capable of assuming the form of a wolf, while retaining human intelligence.

Sonic is a hedgehog, not a human.

Thats why i think it will fail. Don't get me wrong, playing as Sonic looks really cool, but the werewolf gameplay looks sooooo disapointing.

Take a look at every game sonic is in on the Wii (except SSBB) and you can see why only the sonicfanboys have faith. Also werewolf sonic will automatically stretch his claws to grab a ledge if you miss. Sounds nice but it also sounds like this portion of the game will present little challenge to platforming vets

It really did look good, but then the Werehog levels were shown. And sadly those Werehog levels are 50% of the game.

I disagree. Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2 were outstanding. Sonic Adventure 2: Battle, Sonic Heroes, and Sonic and the Secret Rings were all good. DX, Shadow, and Sonic '06 were the only bad ones.

well sonic adventure and sonic DX are the same game....likewise with sonic ad 2 and ad 2 battle and really those were the only decent games, they were very flawed though

all the other 3d sonics were dissapointing and terrible imo

because everytime a new sonic game is announced people are like "OMFGZZZZ I think sonics finally being made good on 3d, it's like AWESOME and I think I'm gonna feel like I did back in the megadrives. And I loves sonic so much I think it's gonna be like the most fastest thing ever"

then people play it... and it always sucks, even it's 2d offerings aren't worth buying anymore

Because 2-D sonics are continuing to do well on the DS.

have you played them? they're pretty overrated... I like the old sonic games, but those are bad replicas of what made them great, with annoying characters added in that no one wants to play as

I have played the first sonic rush, and i hear the second is better. You only play as sonic and blaze in the first one and they're virtually the same so there arent annoying characters you are forced to play as.

DX is the original, except with worse controls, a worse camera, more glitches, and more frame rate drops.

During the past few years people have been hyping evey single Sonic 3-D game that is announced, and after the hype comes disappointment with the reviews. So I think now we learned the lesson and we start being careful with 3-D Sonic adventures.

I got a simple answer for your question. It's because all the 3D Sonic games suck. Only the 2d ones, the side scrollers are the best and most fun Sonic games to date.

I won't defend a sonic title because it's cool to hate sonic apparently. I'll leave that to famicommander. He has more patience than I do for that sort of thing. I'm getting the game and will enjoy it. Say what you will.

I won't look at this project with high hopes. But usually that's a good thing, because you have low hopes for something, but it ends out being good, you're not hurt as much. But if you have high hopes for Sonic and the game is bad, then you'll be extremely disappointed.

It varies throughout the levels. It's partially 2D and partially 3D but what do I know. I've only watched the videos that are publicly available.

There have been a couple so-so 3-D Sonic games, and a couple god-awful 3-D Sonic games. So we're more than likely looking at one of those two options. We can hope Sonic Unleashed will be great, but Sega hasn't done any really fantastic work in awhile.

I personally think if the speed parts in the Sonic Adventure games were brought back and were the main focus of the games, it'd be awesome, because that's the most fun I've had with Sonic in 3-D. Sonic Heroes and Secret Rings weren't bad, and playing as many characters in the Sonic Adventures sucked, but those speed parts were cool, they should've stuck with that idea.

the easy answer is because its a sonic game and its 2-D the longer answer is that every sonic game after sonic adventure 2 has been a disapointment or a handheld game. After getting your hopes up 4 seperate times and having each of those 4 games be let downs u become jaded and just assume the 5 is going to suck

I thought Sonic Adventure 2: Battle and Sonic Adventure DX were the same game as the ones one DreamCast, but with more content? Why are they worse?

Also, I'm not excited for this game at all. It seems like Sonic does most of the whole "moving" thing on his own, but I only watched the first trailer to be fair.

"Sonic does most of the whole "moving" think on his own"

What? It's the same as any of the 2D games. Move back, forward, left, right. I'm not sure what you're talking about? I suggest you watch some more trailers and look at some more info before you bash the game. It's fair if you're not interested in it, but you don't seem to know much about it.

Because it was the Werewolf form of Sonic that kinda made the game bad. This game could have broke the Sonic curse but it didn't because of the Werewolf form.

If Sonic Adventure 1 & 2 were outstanding then how was Sonic Adventure DX and Sonic Adventure 2 Battle bad?? there were pracically the same game excepts for the latter ones had some improvements.

Why wouldn't we think that?

Ever since Sonic took the step into full 3-D, the games have been from terrible to fair. The Sonic team never managed to do what Nintendo did with Super Mario 64 - they never managed to adjust to the fact that the games now were in 3-D. I love the old Sonic-games, I play them all the time, and I hate the new ones. The story they present in the new games, the gameplay - the obsession with Sonic having to speed like a maniac through almost every course...it's not good. It's actually really bad.

But...who knows...Sonic Unleashed may be a great game. We Don't Know Yet.

The werewolf doesn't look terrible in fact, if you've seen the gameplay it looks like its should be fun playing as the werehog, also don't forget about all those cool combos.

I'm gonna buy it, I'm not sure about the game though. I want to think it'll be good, but I have doubts
