I like how they pair Knuckles's "hardcore" hip hop music with his aspergers monotone humorless nerd voice acting.
I sincerely hope they were trolling when they did Knuckles' hip-hop music.
Ec-i-dona!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Like E-102 Gamma theme and E-101 Mk II fight music)
But that as about it.
I miss Eggman's old character design.
ok ive been of sonic since the begining.
over the years the games(in my opinion) have gotten better(besides sonic 06)
it all started withs sonic 1 through sonic and knuckles for the sega genesis.
The story for those was that the evil dr.ivo robotnik had created a planet destorying weapon called the death egg. eventually he meets tails and knuckles.
then came sonic adventures 1 and 2. both amazing games.
the comes sonic heroes then shadow the hedgehog and sonic riders.then along comes shadow the hedgehog, sonic 06, sonic and the secret rings, and sonic and the black knight, and sonic unleashed,and sonic riders zero gravity
and now we have 3 new games
sonic colors, sonic 4, and sonic free riders.
what are your opinions on the sonic series
DarkLuffy606, you might want to use the Search function and include your topics into pre-existing discussions. Certainly, there's a Sonic topic already in the Video Game subforum.

I liked Sonic R.
Haters gonna hate.
^ I don't like Sonic R. Hater just hated.
I mean really, Sonic's the fastest thing alive. Did he pull a Sonic Labyrinth or what?
Lessee, I hate the fanboys who argue over voice actors, the awfulness peaked in '06-'08, I'm hoping things will get better. You know, the usual. I just want them to realize Sonic's not "all about speed!!1!"
Sonic the Hedgehog sat on a wall
Sonic the Hedgehog had a great fall
All of Sega's and Sonic Team's men
Couldn't put Sonic together again
I came, I read, I LOL'ed. Yet I cried because it's pretty much true.
Also: why can't they make good music anymore? Did the good composers ditch the games when it was going good? I mean, Mario games have kept their games with good music, yet Sonic can't do the same? The theme songs are pretty laughable, as well.

He was still the fastest character sans Super Sonic, he just had awful turning. It took a lot of skill to play as Sonic, something not required to "ace" the other games in the series.

I don't hate any of the voice actors. I just miss Eggman's former voice actor mostly because he's dead and was a really cool guy.
That sounds really,really bad in terms of story.Sonic is a blue talking Hedgehog, why would you try to appeal any of it to adults? Well you know what im trying to say.
well, not saying they're doing it right, but the average age of a gamer now-a-days is 30. and the ones who really care about sonic are us old farts that remember the good old days.
that being said, sonic games are made in japan, am I right? and i remember someone here saying that the japanese arn't into sonic. So, maybe the developers keep experimenting to find something the japanese like? Or maybe it's just part of japanese culture, where they don't like to admit they've made a mistake and try to hide the fact or ignore it. "what? a bad sonic game? no. it was good. we're gonna make more"
They've made Sonic even more appealing to furry fans than it already was in the good times.

I mean it's a silly concept. It's established Sonic is the fastest, so it's common sense he'd beat every normal opponent, regardless of difficult turning. The only ones who could compete are Shadow, their supers, and any robots who could go that fast. :/
I don't hate any of the voice actors. I just miss Eggman's former voice actor mostly because he's dead and was a really cool guy.
Well, yeah, I miss him, too. I don't like the ones that rant endlessly when it's not going to change. Besides, there's a reason the mute button exists.
Too bad the dialogue's cheesy, too. :x
Also, LOL at Retsudo's comment. >8D;;;
The thing that annoys me is that I can handle bad voice acting.
Eternal Darkness has got some bad voice acting, but I worship that game! I had more fun playing ED than Super Smash Brothers Melee.
Same here, Insider. Until I got used to other companies, 4Kids was perfectly fine to me. Even then, I can still handle it! WTF, indeed.
Seriously it was the Dreamcast and after Sonics that gave us Rouge the Bat and Princess Elise. As well as the seriousness, "realistic" environments, and angst.
Genesis Sonic is Looney Tunes. Dreamcast and after Sonic is freaking Swat Kats.
I confess that I like Rouge. I like thieves. Even if she is pathetic slash material. I like her better when she only gives a shit about herself.
Princess Elise can freeze in the lowest level of Hell for all I care.
I confess that Fang already did the job Rouge is doing now sans her figure and the Knuckles pairing. He was cool! Rouge is fine, though, but it's just those crazy artists… eww... <:C
I'd cook up Elise and stick a fork in her back, but I'm afraid I might get some weird disease. (>_>); Beastiality is NOT COOL.
Not to mention Sonic didn't use to have all these crazy plots full of wangst and SRS BSNS and time paradoxes. What happened to "less is more"?
Rouge is nothing more than super furry fan bait who was brought in for that dark evil team thing SA2 had. I'll be honest, I find her whole character kind of disturbing.
And Elise is likely just the audience surrogate for the Sonic fanbase to live out their impossible fantasies. Probably at least a few of the developers as well.
I was trying to think of those words when describing her. Yeah, I think Fang did a better job as a thief.
Haha, so she's Sonic Team's insert Mary Sue fan character? XD
Something to that effect, yes.
I just hope they don't do it again, especially with a human. Honestly, when I found out about that game and heard she KISSED him, I went through a blue screen of death.
Also, I'd like to ask something because I'm a Nintendo girl and only recently got into this series. Why the fury at changing Sonic's eyes green? It never really bothered me since I didn't care.
cause other people DO care. cause it's liek serious buisness. It is their life mission to make sure things are done right.
your a smart girl for not caring

it just gets put on the vast laundry list of things wrong with sonic games released in the last 10 years.
nobody with functioning brain cells actually cares though
It's established Sonic is the fastest
Whatever happened to proving he was the fastest, like what the big subplot of the very first game was.

One emoticon: XD.

You have to remember I just got into this series. Well, not like in this month, only for about a year, but some of the fandom scares me a little. Not to mention I haven't played a lot of the games. Sure, watched somebody play, but not really play myself. As a kid I watched the first cartoon and a little bit of Sonic AM, but that's about it.
Besides, they've beaten in that fact for so long now, I'm pretty sure that's one of the first things people think of when they hear Sonic the Hedgehog. Why go against it?
Do you think it's possible that Sonic Team, Dimps, and Sega Studio USA have been trying to pull a Springtime for Hitler?
Or trying to see how far they can make Sonic fall.
I think Bonney used her DF powers to turn Sonic Team all into children and doddering old men, and now they have no idea how to do anything. XD
(I think this may belong to a different thread…)
I thought Sonic's controllers were absorbed into the cult of newness (a large and dangerous cult, mind you) and wanted to turn Sonic into some sort of grotesque solo racing game/shooter/brawler/whatever combo with increased furry appeal.
I like Crash 40. Yeah, I'm gay, so what.
Bu I agree that Sonic's modern music pales in contrast to any of the music from 1-3.
God knows my sister and I consider Ice Cap Zone's theme to be legendary.
Sonic 06 onward have had great OSTs, as well as the Rush series. Once they dropped the vocal level music, it became great. :D

They're trying to get a flop in a moneymaking scam with the investors who have contubited 3000% of the actual production budget and they need an absolute guaanteed flop for the scam to work or else they go to jail?
Well. Makes as much sense as anything else.

If they had been doing that they'd have gone to jail a long time ago.
How low do your standards need to be to think Sonic's direction has been good?
Much much
MUCH lower than mine.
Probably didn't add enough "much"s, even considering I found Shadow the Hedgehog as an Ok game.

If Sonic's handlers have this mindset then no wonder his games went downhill.
ok ive been of sonic since the begining.

I don't even believe this exists.
I'm sure Sonic games could be viewed as getting better if you have low/no standards and accept anything Sonic Team and Co. does with our washed up furry friend.
If you have a decent amount of standards though, no.
Is Unleashed good..ive read different views about the game( this is the one with Silver, right?)

Nope, Unleashed is the one with the werehog and that annoying flying chipmunk…thing. Sonic '06 is the one with Silver (and that game was abyssmal).
As for Unleashed, I played the Wii version and personally I didn't think it was too bad aside from the werehog stages. It still has a lot of the same problems as previous Sonic games, but the daytime stages are at least reasonably fun.
I hope I'm not the only one who finds Sonic Team having Sonic 4 as a download game with multiple episodes unnerving.

I really don't get people's issue with episodic games. Is it that you have to pay for multiple games at different times?
That's not the issue.
The problem I see is that it seems like Sonic 4 is being treated more as a side project to throw the people who've been complaining about how the blue guy's been treated a bone rather than a major game.
Of course, I might be overreacting here and Sonic 4 will turn out to be Sonic's answer to NSMBWii (which was a good game).
That I could somewhat understand, but when there is a chance that the 'side-project' is a million times better than the main course, at least you enjoyed the 'side-product'.
At least the side-product is getting close to what we want. That way, when the criticism for all upcoming Sonic games come out, Sega will possibly see where things go well and where things go wrong.
I understand and somewhat agree with you, but I love side-products. I'd rather play any Castlevania or Final Fantasy that's a 'side-product' than some of the things they sometimes come up with as a main course (though I did enjoy some of Castlevania's major titles).
In a few E3 interviews they went on a lot about how they "took fan criticism and decided to improve it' and "really want to get back to the kind of Sonic the fans know and love", so it does seem like they're really TRYING with this one. Like they even said they specifically looked at this thread in this forum, and the programmers that DIDN'T kill themselves went and did everything you guys said.
And not only is everyone still bitching, the finished product would most likely still cause fan-rage. :happy:
I think they should just release a Sonic 1-3+S&K for the 3DS and call it a day.
But they just did for the 2DS
