I found out about this new "Sonic" game from EGM, and I have to say, it looks pretty awesome! If anybody can find out any more info about it that'd be great. Looks cool don't it? Apparently in this game Shadow will be the main charachter and he'll be packin' heat as well. Why? I guess we'll have to find out. Also, I think by the looks of it the option to take over or save the world is once again open, and this game seems as if its going to be like Knights of the Old Republic in the fact that you can choose the light or dark side of ...... well.. whatever hedgehogs choose from.... certainly not the force.

[Destai]

I preffer Knuckles but choosing sides sounds interesting.

[Erdrick Holmes]

It's a game made by Sega, so my expectations of it are VERY high.

[Destai]

Whats so great about Sega? Havent they gone bankrupt about...8 times?

Every game by Sega has been awesome, in my eyes at least (except for Phantasy Star 3.)

Any Sonic character besides Dr. Eggman with a gun isn't right. It would be like Mario with a chainsaw.

[Erdrick Holmes]

Well, Tails had a gun on his Cylcone robot on SA2, and that game was pretty fun.

:p

It's like I'm walking with dinosaurs.

[Rase]

Wow, I didn't know they made a Sonic fighting game.

Oh yeah, as for this, well, we'll see how it plays out. Might be a bit to out-of-the-box for some.

[Erdrick Holmes]

That Sonic Fighters game should have been released in the states. I'd kill to play it.

[Meat Puppet]

Does Mario still belong to Nintendo? I'm considering that Mario with a chainsaw idea.

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

That Sonic Fighters game should have been released in the states. I'd kill to play it.It was. It just had an extremely limited release.

[edczxcvbnm]

Its made by Sonic Team...it must suck.

[Xander]

When I heard Sonic would have a gun or something, I didn't read anymore. xD I haven't liked any of the Sonic games after the Megadrive ones anyway.

[Dr.K]

I agree with Xander.

THE MUSHROOM KINGDOM CHAINSAW MASSACRE :radred:
Mario would be wearing a Koopa face.

[Flamethrower]

OK, Mario with a chainsaw was a bad example because that would be kinda cool. Still, Sonic with a pistol isn't right, dammit!

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

Sonic isn't even the character who's getting a gun.

[Flamethrower]

Sonic, Shadow. Same difference.

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

You may as well complain that Wario Ware isn't a traditional Mario game.

[Flamethrower]

I don't mind when Mario games stray off from the basic Mario formula, because they are usually fun. When Sonic games try something different, it usually sucks. Using Sonic Adventures 2 as an example, the levels you play as Sonic and Shadow are fun, because it uses what Sonic games do best - speed. The scavager hunts you do as Knuckles and Rouge were boring and frusteration and the robot levels as Tails and Eggman were just stupid. Hence, I have little faith that Sega can pull off a game where you shoot things with a gun as Shadow.

[Erdrick Holmes]

I'm surprized a hardcore gamer such as yourself is saying that.

[crashNUMBERS]

Sonic games are cool but this one looks so gay. Besides knuckles owns all...

The sonic games are getting worse and by the looks of that trailer it seems Sega have really lost any good ideas. Im dreading to see what a Sonic game will be like when you get a gun. The games gonna be a flop like Sonic heros and so is Sega

[Destai]

I dont think sonic heros was a flop, enough people showed interest in it.

[Xander]

Okay, so I didn't realise it was Shadow at first. But I still doubt it'll be anything that special. If it's something totally different, fair enough, but personally I'll be avoiding it.

:laugh: That thread is hilarious. The sad thing is, I agree with most of it. The personalities that they gave the Sonic characters, especially Sonic, are quite annoying.

[Shoden]

that guy is the biggest Retard ever and so are the groupies who worship him

sure Sonic's had alot of /xxx.gif/xxx.gif/xxx.gif/xxx.gif games but the first 4 for the megadrive were brilliant but easy

my fav sonic games are the GBA ones
Sonic Advance
Sonic Advance 2
Sonic Battle

they were the best i hated Sonic Advance 3 though stupid team up thing gargh

but that game better be good and Shadow better have the chance for a bazooka or a flamethrower or else i wont have it

My favorite part was

"Who the fuck wanted Rouge the Bat?"

[StarlightAngel]

Shadow with a gun.......... bleh. XP

[crashNUMBERS]

Whats next?? Tails with a lightsaber??

[Dreddz]

Now that would be cool

[Destai]

I think Disney have lightsabers covered :riiight:

[Flamethrower]

Tails with a lightsaber is obviously inferior to Mario with a chainsaw.

[Destai]

Marios always been more original but I still like Sonic..and his little goth friend Shadow.
