sup bitches guess who was right

new trailer here. Spoiler, Sonic dies
 
Am I the only one who is super sick of the Sonic CD robot Sonic?

Even if it is in games I won't play, I really wish Mecha Sonic from Sonic & Knuckles would get used. His design is so much cooler!

He needs more love <3

And no,
Sonic Heroes doesn't count. That was Metal Sonic pretending to be Mecha Sonic turning into Mecha Godzilla.
 
I know why he's smiling.

If you watch the trailer, Sonic dies in it.

Sonic Boom's world is actually purgatory, an endless, soulless plain for lost souls to roam

The sports tape is their chains binding them to this mortal coil

Shadow is smiling because he achieved the ultimate goal for the Ultimate Emo Lifeform - an endless sentence to torment and punishment that lasts until time itself stops and the void beyond it becomes blacker than it already was.

Why is that still a better storyline than Shadow the Hedgehog's?
But IMO Mecha sonic looks kinda dumb, mostly because he doesn't fit very well contextually in the sonic universe. He's supposed to be "robot sonic" but he just looks like a spiky blue cyclops terminator.
 
But he is an AWESOME spiky blue cyclops terminator!

Metal Sonic always looked very fragile and un-intimidating to me, whereas Mecha Sonic had a more threatening feel to him, like he was an actual adversary. I get that Metal Sonic probably fits the style of most of the games better, but as the robot Sonic rival character, I think the more robotic, scary looking one is better.

Plus, Super Mecha Sonic was one of the coolest boss fights in any Sonic game.
 
ey yo

we ultimate lifeform now

(also i missed it but Lyric sounds like Crispin Freeman)
 
Amy just went an entire two sentences without even referencing the weird obsession with Sonic
it's a miracle

OK, seriously though, that little convo between Sonic and Amy wasn't that bad, but I do still wish Shadow's voice was less raspy.
 
Did I just see the Sea Fox from Tails Adventure, or was the submarine in that trailer a different one?

Looks like the Sea Fox, yeah. And apparently this game is going to be set up like Tails Adventure, with a large world explorable in many directions. Neato.

Aha, what the crap Archie

That's REALLY OBSCURE BUT I KINDA LIKE IT. Better than more original characters.
...Is that Honey the Cat on the Ace card?
 
Yes it is I forget she exists sometimes.

I just felt like sharing this track for some reason:

sonic cd had neat tracks

OK, I actually watched the first episode of Boom, and I gotta say, literally the thing keeping me from 100% embracing this is Sticks <aka Ms. Obviously-Never-Leaving-The-Sonic-Boom-Continuity.> Props to the the show for even being able to completely 180 my opinion on Amy's character from annoying Sonic fangirl/stalker to a genuine place on the team.


It also helps that Sonic, Amy and Eggman have the most fun/funny personalities they've ever had.

Eggman is, like always, the best in this.
 
I liked Boom, both the show and the demo on 3DS.

I have both games preordered, we'll see ow they are!

also you can totally watch my LP of the Wii U one if you want i may just link it here like 7 times
 
The 3DS one is also vastly superior to the Wii U one.

The 3DS one is fun! It's like a regular Sonic game with light Metroidvania elements!

The Wii U one is slow. And the "speed" is boring.

I was gonna skip out on both anyway. Where's my Colors 2 that isn't Lost World.
 
Thanks for the let's play on the game. While I do like the fighting moves I have seen so far, I do agree that there are some things that don't look right (i.e. Shadow's design and Amy's lip sync in near the end). I am not sure how to describe Shadow's design.

Ironically this is a pretty apt description of the original Genesis/Mega Drive Sonic games. The speedy loop-de-loop parts were more or less the archaic 16-bit equivalent of qte's, where you essentially have zero control on the onscreen action. The actual moment to moment platforming was probably slower paced and more methodical then any Mario or Mega Man X of the time.

I think the real strength of the original Sonic games was the sense of how sprawling the stages were. Nothing quite like the sense of scale on the stages in those games.

Yeah, but that was 2D and on the Genesis. This is on the Wii U, and after the "Boost Era" gave us boost to win.
But you'll see. I'll link Part 2 when it's up in a few hours and you'll see how it handles 2D gameplay.

Spoilers: JANK AS FUCK
 
You know while it's Sega's fault this happened to Sonic I can let this slide because I already knew it was going to be god-awful.

I'm waiting for Sonic Team to do whatever the heck it is to make Sonic recover from another just... terrible game. Maybe Sonic Generations 2? Whatever just make it fun.
 
Oh don't get me wrong, at least those games were solid. This does look like garbage.
 
During that knuckels video, all I could think of is "HE... COULD... GO... ALL... THE...now he's inside". That and Knuckles saying "Box Art Megaman taught me this one!"
