And now, another crap sonic game... Sonic Colours! "LONDON & SAN FRANCISCO (May 26th, 2010) – SEGA® Europe Ltd. & SEGA® America, Inc., today announced Sonic Colours™, a brand new high speed action adventure in which Sonic the Hedgehog races through incredible theme park inspired worlds to rescue a colourful alien race from the clutches of Dr Eggman. Sonic Colours will be available on the home video game system Wii™ and the Nintendo DS™ system late in 2010." http://blogs.sega.com/europe/2010/05/26/announcing-sonic-colours/
There's a high chance this was already posted in this thread but I'm not going to read the entire thing just to figure it out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVI6Agm1-kY lul.
I dont know how, but with Colors segammy somehow managed to turn sonic into a mixture of equal parts gay and lame, they finally destroyed any "attitude" it had left. Two things, first: thats the best Mega64 video I've seen in ages, seriously:clap: Second: I really felt the part when they say "I dont know why we keep coming to this shit........is like the old one was good but now for the fourth time it looks like barf" but not because of sonic (I haven't played that shit since the craptacular heroes) but Mega64 themselves, whose first videos were good, but followed by years and years of the same old crap, forcing me to watch the old ones to the point that every second is made of pure Unfunnium 119 something so fucking heavy that it can bring any joke down. And yes I created that, james cameron doesnt have a monopoly on absurd elements...
I agree with Mega64 having lost their touch. Now it's all about "LOL COSTUME AND DEMENOR IN PUBLIC! PEOPLE FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE! LOL!!" and that's it. And you have an interesting point with the assumedly unintentional irony.
Colors is segammy opening a can of kawaii so they dont have to go and re-invent the franchise before it goes completely stale Yeah their videos have become as deep as Jackass, except nobody gets punched in the balls, thrown into feces, etc... so theres no punchline at all.
I disagree:fresh: http://www.destructoid.com/videogame-fans-need-to-shut-up-about-everything-164476.phtml#ext Once again. I've played Sonic just as long as everyone else and I seriously can't stand how much Some of us bitch like little girls about every single little thing. Sure quite a few of the sonic games in the last 10 years have been duds, but a lot of them are still good and enjoyable to play. Even more so if you just completely ignore the story elements they try to put in.
That blog has been done to the death, is BS 90% of the time. If it were for turds like this guy, the game industry would still be the 2600. Here, I'll make it dumb-friendly: 1990's Sonic games --------> top-of-the-line quality 2000's non-Adventure Sonic games-------> pure marketing shovelware Zing!
I never liked Sonic games. Alex the Kidd ruled. So "I" won't buy it. Oh well? I don't see the reason for an argument.
Thought people might find this video interesting. While its not going to be a proper game its a good artists insight to a 3D version of Sonic and Knuckles. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxXycBv3Rlk&feature=player_embedded
