That looks absolutely awful. Is that a PS3 and Wii only thing? SteveTabernacleUmm... in the beginning of the video it says "press RT or LT" which means it's the 360 version since those are the names of 360 buttons. And yes, it looks HORRID.
While that was a very interesting use of tilt controls and I love the idea that they're going back to 2D Sonic... That looked downright terrible.Not-A-StalkerThat wasn't tilt, that was pressing right and left triggers on the 360 controller.
This might very well be Sonic's last shot at stardom. The problem was 3D gameplay, was it not? If this flops...it may be it for Sonic.
[QUOTE="Skittles_McGee"]There are no new friends so that sonic cycle pic is automatically invalided. Check the first stage of the cycle. There are no friends yet.Ah looks like we're nearing the end of the first stagerunbleduck
Besides, wasn't it promised that Sonic Unleashed would have no friends? Correct me if I'm wrong, but does it not have friends in it?
On a side note, what game is that third Sonic pic from?

You know what's even more pathetic than rabid Sonic fans? Mario fans who feel the need to bring up their BS in this.

The TC brough Mario into this, so why wouldn't Mario fans retaliate?
The TC was being sarcastic. He can't be serious.[QUOTE="GreySeal9"][QUOTE="Theguy56"]

I don't know about Mario getting owned, but I'm glad to see Sonic go back to his 2D roots. The videos I watched on Xbox Live looked amazing, and seem to capture the excitement of what made Sonic fun, which was the sense of speed.Now all we need is Knuckles!

As a Mario and Sonic fan due to Sonics past efforts I don't build up the hype like some people do for a Sonic game like some did with Sonic 2006,Unleashed and Sonic and the Black Knight. I mean you expect Mario to be brought into the equation. I mean they used to be rivals in the 90s.It's really too bad. When I was a kid, Sonic beat the pants off of Mario. Game is even good to this day.
Hopefully this will be decent, but I don't expect much.
[QUOTE="Mario1331"]idk why you would even say that though in a gaming perspective no platformer comes close

I like the platforming genre, but i'm not keen on the mario platformers. Which is a shame since that is almost all there is right now in terms of big names.
I wonder if i'm the only guy who would be infinitely more hyped for Tomba 3 than anything ninty could do with a mario platformer.
On topic: The swaying back, and orth a couple of times made me nauseas.
i understand but thats more of an opinion though he disagreed that mario isnt notorious in platforming and i would agrue that severly but everybody ahs dfferent taste

You must now commit a vow, before man and whatever your metaphysical credence, that you will never, ever, ever, EVER subject a dollar of your wallet towards this game.

On a more serious note, does the go-kart thingy ever end? I'm 1 minute in and I got to tell you... it's enough.
I don't understand how we (the commenters) are "blind fanboys" but you aren't for believing that a washed-up has-been like Sonic can dethrone a massive cultural & commercial hit like Mario.
Have you ever played Brawl? How 'bout the Mario & Luigi series? Ever took the time behind the wheel in MarioKart? Do you know why people say Mario Galaxy is an awesome game?No :|
Just looking at the video made me want to punch my computer. I looks sickening and the person playing it looked like they had trouble completing it.
This isn't 1993. It's 2010. The whole Mario vs. Sonic thing ended when the Dreamcast ended (Despite games like Brawl and the Olympics where they went against each other). Sonic couldn't dethrone Mario in the '90s (especially during the 32/64-bit era) so what makes you think that NOW it's going to happen.
You Sonic fans puzzle me. After all these years, wouldn't it occur to you guys that he is a dying franchise and will never be ressurected. But I guess ignorance really is bliss. While us "blind fanboys" enjoy the awesomeness that is Mario Galaxy 2 you and the rest of the Sonic fans will be still caught in the washer machine of despair (a.k.a the Sonic Cycle).
Sonic can't pwn that. 8)
What happens if someone plays both Mario and Sonic? What are they considered?

Sonic the Hedgehog 4 looks to be a guaranteed AAA comeback title we've all been waiting for. From all the released videos and details so far, Sonic 4 looks to be absolutely amazing. Before you haters bring up the Sonic Cycle BS like sonic adventure 2, sonic heroes, shadow the hedgehog, sonic and the secret rings, Sonic the Hedgehog reboot, sonic unleashed, sonic and the black knight, etc., READ ALL THE AMAZING PREVIEWS and watch all the awesome footages first. If you do all of that, you will all believe and be hyped as much as I am (otherwise you're a blind fanboy). The reign of Mario is over, Sonic has finally come back to take his rightful place.
Check out the latest footage here. Amazing new mechanic addition that puts new mario bros. wii to shame.

Yeeaaah...uh I made a similar topic about Sonic 4. The Casino Street level looked like classic. This however....er...doesn't look too good. It's chaotic, confusing, and the whole level has Sonic stuck in a mine cart. If anything, this could be the worst level in the game yet. -_-There are no new friends so that sonic cycle pic is automatically invalided. Check the first stage of the cycle.

Well Chip in Unleashed could count as a "new friend" though he isn't playable unless you count Gaia Collosus. Tails and Amy were also there but really, the game was all Sonic granted he transformed at night. As for the picture, you need to be a little specific. The one were Sonic is screaming is from the Sonic Unleashed opening and the picture of Sonic holding Caliburn is from Sonic and the Black Knight.Well Chip in Unleashed could count as a "new friend" though he isn't playable unless you count Gaia Collosus.

reading that gibberish almost gave me a nosebleed. sonic went from being games where you held down right on the d-pad and went really fast to whatever the hell was described above. what people see in this franchise is beyond me

LOL I don't what to tell ya. Sonic just evolved I guess. For better and for worse. Ever since the Dreamcast died (which it sorta deserved), people should of caught on to the fact that Sonic was never gonna be in any GOTY games. Shadow the Hedgehog proved that Sonic Team was running out of ideas and began struggling to appeal to the masses. I think part of it had to do with Sonic Heroes, one of the good 3D Sonic games, being generally ignored by the fanbased that demanded it. Sega listens to their fans too much. They want classic Sonic in 3D and they get Heroes. They what a mature Sonic game and they get Shadow. They want a fast Sonic game and they get Unleashed. All I can say at this point is if Sonic 4 fails then Sonic the Hedgehog, one of my favorite series, is and was officially bad. This is Sonic's final trial. If he fails this time then it'll explain why Sonic died on the Genesis because apparently those games weren't any good to begin with.Please Log In to post.
