"Sonic Colours" Discussion, New game announcement!

Featured Replies

They should stop dilly-dallying and just released a graphically-improved Sonic Adventure 1 and 2. THOSE were the good sonic games =P~

 

I don't know. This game still looks bad. I'll give it until E3 and until I see gameplay videos to make a judgement to it though. But a theme park that is run by Robotnik that is in space, and has 7 rainbow coloured aliens in it... :mellow:

 

The sonic adventures wern't the most amazing games out there but I still really loved the first one despite it's issues. I think the big reason for that though is that back then it was such a leap in technology on the Dreamcast and scenes like the whale one were just awesome (Even though you were hardly in control).

I totally agree with you there. But I don't think it was the technology. I loved SA1/2 because of its brilliant story, characters, levels... just everything about those two games... Who here who completed SA2 was totally in love with the level with the gravity changing blocks (near the end where Robotnik kidnaps Amy). Back then... I don't know. Robotnik seemed evil. He had evil plans. Now its all "LOLOL CHAOS EMERALDS LOLOL OH CRAP I FORGOT TO LOCK THE GIANT DOOR AND NOW SONIC IS DEFEATING MY ARMY ROBOTS THAT HAVE MINIGUNS ON ITS ARMS I AM GOING TO DIE".

I still remember Maria Robotnik :cry:

And the fact that now at the end of almost every new sonic game he helps the heros because before that it was: I'M GOING TO GET THAT HEDGEHOG IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO now it's SONIC SAVE ME FROM MY FAIL CREATION THAT'S DESTROYING THE WORLD.

 

P.S I will consider the old doctor robotnik robotnik1.jpg over this Fraud anydaychara_eggman1.gif

 

 

P.S.S Now live with this image in your mind robotnikmodel.png

Oh dear god. That picture has scarred me for life.

 

But this may be good. If it is then it will either be really good, or poor IMO

 

 

 

 

And sonic adventure 2- <3:

Many believe that the 1980 eruption of Mt. Saint Helens was a catostrophic geological event, in reality it was the day that Jimi Hendrix returned to Earth from the next world and actually stood up next to a mountain and chopped it down with the edge of his hand.

I think I love SEGA.

They've been granting my wishes...

OMFG DREAMCASTLE TITLES THIS AUTUMN D:

I can't wait to play Amy Rose in Twinkle Park... <3:

 

Also on another note, that picture of Robotnik in a Bikini is just damn sexy. Also, the 2nd Robotnik picture isn't a fraud! That picture is infact the cool Robotnik from Sonic Adventure 2!

I believe this is the ugly Robotnik your looking for.

I disagree with all of the above. They just need to quit making Sonic altogether, they've beaten the dead horse past its point of no return.

 

Sonic 4 is looking really solid.

 

Just the idea that it's not 3D is enough for me. They finally got the hint. The Sonic I have for 360 has ranks for clearing the level, similar to Devil May Cry. Now mix that with Sonic's awkward 3D manueverability and wall/ground glitches. :shame: I will beat it some day though because I can't decline the challenge.

Hardly anyone mentioned the DS version of Sonic Colors...

 

I can predict that the DS version will do excellent, and the Wii version not as well, maybe alright.

 

(As long as Sega sticks to Nintendo consoles it's all good. :) )

needs a bump! this is shaping up to be a brilliant game- the DS version is basically going to be sonic rush without a cat ( D: ) and the wii version is sonic unleashed day stages- all in all, brilliant!

I'll still hold my expectations for sonic, while it is looking good, you never know.

Anyone know approximate release date for DS version?

Should be the same as the Wii version.

FEATURES:

Non-stop high-speed action

 

*walks away*

 

Seriously, what is so hard about going from 2D to 3D that makes them feel that it has to be so fast that it's nearly impossible to control? Just looking at the trailer gives me a churning feeling in the pit of my stomach. I don't mind cheesy stories--all Sonic games are kind of cheesy (Sonic Rush, Sonic Adventure 2 anyone?) But...gah.

 

Sega seemed to be going in the proper direction when I saw Sonic 4 announced as a traditional 2D scroller with 3D graphics, which seemed to remind me more like the first three games than the catastrophe of gameplay we've seen in recent years.

 

Also, you are now aware that the 'aliens' are one eyed flying Chao creatures.

They did a great job with Sonic Unleashed knowing how similarly it looks and how cleaner the speed chapters are it looks fun to play.

 

Shame the alien powers are going to be something Mario would have same thing with the plot.

 

 

I guess one miracle at a time I suppose.

Sonic unleashed controlled like a dream Kimberly (day stages of course, night sections were plain excrutiating), and so did the first 2 sonic Adventures.

 

Am I here the only one to enjoy Sonic and the Secret Rings? :unsure:

Never, even the lower Crests were hard as hell for me. I pretty much just defeated the final boss (Best.Powered up Sonic. EVAAAAR).

Heh, this will probably give me a reason to play my DS and Wii again. ^^

 

They better make getting the Chaos Emeralds challenging. The ones in the last 2 Rushes were actually very easy for me :mellow:

A new trailer showcasing enw power ups hit the web yesterday

I'm not a fan of the Purple and Pink wisps, specially purple, looks like it brings the speed to a halt :blink:

  • 3 weeks later...

Game will be out on Friday, but seems like those who pre-ordered it already got it.

 

Reviews are actually giving Sonic Colors good scores. Even IGN gave it an 8.5, compared to the 3.5 they gave for Unleashed.

 

What irks me though, is that most reviews compare this game to Super Mario Galaxy. Yes, friggin' SUPER MARIO GALAXY.

 

I don't see how the two matches up together... I've played both Galaxy games (100%'ed), and Colors doesn't resemble either Galaxy games at all. (Except maybe the drill...)

 

Like OP said, this could turn out to be a brilliant game!

Yes because going RAILRAILRAILSCREENJERKRAILFASTWHEREAREYOU?DOYOUEVENKNOW?NOYOUDONTITSASONICGAMEIN3DLOL! is 'dream' state of controlling.

 

If you've played the original sonic games and then tried the 3d counterparts, I cannot imagine you'd be saying that. They have no balance of speed and control. I've yet to play a 3d sonic game where they've achieved this. The Sonic Advanced did a much better job of this balance while still having the good ol' sonic speed. Compare that with, say, Sonic Adventure 2 (any of the outer-space levels) and you've got to be out of your mind to say otherwise.

 

EDIT: Lol I'm staying classy with a two month late reply.

While i do understand the complaints about Sonic Adventure 2, i always felt in controll while playing Unleashed day levels.

 

That being said, i also prefer 2D sonics. Being Advance 3 my favourite.

Let me fix that reply so it reaches its full potential:
