General Sonic The Hedgehog thread

Everyone is in a pretty negative mood today, huh?

Hey, I'm still up for a Sonic/Kirby crossover, though.

Sonic sucks.

This thread sucks.

This fora sucks.

The Internet sucks.

The world sucks.

Yo mamma sucks.

Kirby sucks.

Then he spits it right back at ya.

I WANNA GO AND CLOBBEH DAT DERE KIRBEH!

Guys, we have a Kirby thread. Somewhere...

I WANNA GO AND CLOBBEH DAT DERE SAHNIC!

BUTT DOKTER EHGMAHN! UR HANDZ R FOR STRANLIN ZETI!

LOOK AT ALL THOZE ERGMEN'S ROBOTZ!

Leaving this here again because I'm still really proud with how it turned out.

Sonic Adventure's Bonus Stage (skip to 3:20) and Sonic All-Stars Racing Transformed beg to differ:

While neither are pure Sonic gameplay, the concept is there.

If the Storybook games hadn't decided to drop Sonic into fantasy worlds the way they did, you might have had a point there. It would be so easy for Sonic to "fall asleep" and end up in Nightopia.

Ni GH Ts is such an old property though, it'd be like Nintendo coming out with some Super Mario Bros HD Remake, or a new Yoshi's Story or Donkey Kong Country... oh wait.

No, it'd be like Nintendo making an HD remake of The Mysterious Murasame Castle.

Well, let's not forget, there was a Wii Ni GHTS game (that is purportedly a mixed bag in terms of quality—can't say for myself, since while I own it, I haven't played it yet).

That game suffered almost the exact same fate as Sonic '06: interference from Sega causing them to rush development, resulting in a mediocre product.

It was originally a PS3/360 game, but Sega had the (by Yuji Naka's admission, brilliant) idea that the IR pointer would be perfect for NiGHTS. So they forced Sonic Team to scrap the current build and rush a new one for the Wii.

I say a Sonic/Ni GHTS crossover would probably suck because I personally think that NID is barely average (and apparently the sequel is even worse), and the Sonic franchise is currently in a state of disrepair, as much as I hate to admit it. I just don't think Sonic Team has it in 'em.

We wouldn't be Sonic fans if we weren't.

You joke, but that's actually very true; now more than ever.

So Sonic Boom is going to be a video game prequel to a television show?

...How many times has this happened before, exactly?

Recursive Adaptation? Probably a lot more than we're realizing.

This is the first time I've heard of this sort of thing being done and advertised concurrently, as part of the same project. Usually it's more along the lines of licensed games.

A video game to a cartoon back to a video game.

I might just pick up the game because of how weird the concept of it is.

I hope they add Honey at some point.

What role would she even serve?

I dunno.

This game's take on the Speed/Flight/Power team system isn't quite as rigid as Heroes, so it might not even matter if she blended between types.

I mean, Ray is somewhere between Tails/Cream and Knuckles.

I guess Honey would be a good strength factor.

So I'm like "You know what? Fuck this video. I can play as Blaze so that's more than enough of a reason for me to play it right now." So I pull up the website.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
