cool design, cool games, cool comics, cool shows, cool movies, cool music.

Oh my Fauci! Is that… le amen break drum & bass? Waouw! This is just like muh h*ccin' depression-inducing bone-tingling genre-redefining slow-burnt slowed + reverb low-fidelity sewerslvtwavecorewavecore edits of my favourite indieslop videogame, ultroonkill!

>>52960
>amen break
If you say so.

>>52960
actually obsessed
holy shit

Deliberately crafted and designed with the goal of being the most marketable character ever in mind. There is a reason he shares many design elements with mickey mouse.

>>52946
>cool comics
Only Archie, doebeit the crossovers with Megaman were somewhat obnoxious and sort of killed the Blue bomber's printed run altogether by ruining its pacing and removing any stakes its arcs had.

>>52972
Holy fucking TRVKE.
IDW is actual troon-slop but I wasn't going to break the flow of the sentence just to point out that fact.

badass, also soap shoes

kind of a shame sonic games won't ever be cool or ambitious or pioneering again since unleashed and none will ever be good again since gens. All the crucial people in sonic team moved to better studios who could blame them doe

maybe thats part of growing up idk but just from the footage of the sonic games since the ones mentioned above none look good apart from mania which barely counts

Every Sonic game after Sonic Mania is rushed troonslop.

Sonic Unleashed is the only good sonic game

>>53194
True, true.
It's a shame that Sega are to scared to try anything anymore, it's an even BIGGER shame that Ian has been given such a grasp over the writing and pacing of every single new installment since Frontiers.
The fat fucking hack is going too re-write the entirety of Generations for the new re-release and I'm not looking forward to that piece of hot garbage.
>sonic games since the ones mentioned above none look good apart from mania
I mean, Sonic Runners was OK I guess?

>>53226
>Even tho Sonic Unleashed (HD) is dragged down by the Werehog albeit.
I've always had a soft spot of Sonic Unleashed (SD) due to the more stream-lined story progression, wide level design and the unbloated Werehog, it's worth a shot.

>>53230
The Werehog is a welcome addition that shakes up the gameplay quite nicely, it's just that the sonic fandom is made up of hyperactive adhd autistic kids who can't tolerate a slower pace

why is the thread about fucking sonic one of the top ones, actual autismoGODs

>>53228
>sonic runners
>Ian
marge
>gens will get a re-write
Why would it need that the story was already fine for what it was about. The shadow portion looks unrelated since he was fighting black doom in the trailer, unless they retcon him to help defeat eggman in the final boss like sa2 o algo asi

>>53235
I wonder how things would have turned out if the werehog had no levels and instead there were just more boost stages albeit the game would only last like 3 hours

>>53242
>Ian
Brandon Anderson

Anyways, thoughts on sonic movie 3?

>>53278
I'm looking forward to it.
The character designs and CGI look pretty snazzy and I'm looking forward to the fleet of Amy troons on Xitter having a meltdown when she is inevitably not added.
I just hope the story and writing will be as good as the CGI.

>>53243
The game would become immensely better in all departments if the Werehog was removed.
Sonic Team by extension would also have more time to fine-tune the game and optimize the code so that the it doesn't run at a 30fps lock.
Reviewers would hate it even more albeit.

>>53242
>Why would it need that the story was already fine for what it was about.
I believe Ian or someone else at Sega noticed the insignificant complaints about Generations' story-line and decided to rewrite it just for the sake of quelling said complaints.
I pray Ian doesn't sneak in a rewritten line of dialogue that pushes IDW lore into the game, like what he done in Frontiers with Tangle.

>>53226
Sonic Unleashed is a gem and the opening cinematic is peak Sonic kino
The werehog stages were pretty cool, especially if you played the Wii version with a nunchuk because you had to swing both your arms and the werehog would attack accordingly. Although I insist that boost sucks and 3D platforming like the Adventure games is far better

Uekawa is the gem that saved SEGA

>>53230
I think colors was built off Unleashed SD

Patrick Spaziante is the gem that saved SEGA of America albeit, he did at-least 80% of all Archie covers.
If it wasn't for the strong covers the comic would have sold fuck all and would've got cancelled at issue 50.

>>53313
Just checked TCRF and yeah, it most likely was.
Colors has a good few leftovers from the other Wii games including models and animations.
Sonic Team is notable for reusing code; if my memory is correct, every mainline game since Unleashed has been built on the code from the last, this explains why Forces controls like shit as it was built off Lost World and it's parkour system, this ALSO expands to the 2D games as Sonic 4 Episode 1 was built off of Sonic Rush, Sonic Rush was built off of Sonic Advance and so on so forth.

the same appeal as mario except hes fast. Holding a single direction button and occasionally jumping is a very easy gameplay loop for the disabled to understand

>>53316
building frontiers off lost world is so unbelievably retarded they could have easily just reused generations and maybe the game wouldn't have been complete dograisin. What are they smoking. Sonic games after gens will never have a chance to be good again keeeek

>>53597
>they could have easily just reused generations
Sega wouldn't even bother trying that, since the Generations engine wasn't made in HE2.
They've forced the entirety of Sonic Team to move to the newer "Hedgehog Engine 2" for no reason other then "it looks nicer lol".
>Sonic games after gens will never have a chance to be good again keeeek
TRVKE.
There were some leaks a while back that stated Sega was planning to switch to Unreal Engine instead of HE2 for future remakes, so there is a minor possibility that the games may improve.

>>53599
>"it looks nicer lol".
not even that is true though it looks the same if not worse the majority of the time because of the lighting

>>53600
God, I forgot how ugly Frontiers is.
It genuinely looks like a raisinty engine demo.

>>53602
SEGA! HIRE THIS MAN!

>>53602
why does s h i t t y change to raisinty?

Bonkykong… I kneel…

>>53783
Funnily enough, for every ten Nintendies, there's at least one Sonic fan who's a troon.
I'd rather take Sonic, a franchise with a strong dedicated fan-base with a 70/30 split between normal people and troons, then Mario, with a fan-base consisting of actual toddlers and 30 something balding nu-males.
Also, Sonic fan slop has sovl, Mario raisin does not.
>vidsrel

>>53793
sonic 3 is better than anything the mario faglovers have played

>>53793
Whats better though, having to replay the first 10 games and fangames or always having new good quality games
Bing bing wahoo always has at least good games (partly because alot of sonic team moved to nintendo kek). Sonic on the other hand gets game design graduate rushjob niggerstones every 5 years

>>53919
>having to replay the first 10 games and fangames
Subjective from person to person, I have a very broad taste when it comes to what I consider a "good" Sonic game, and that list is way longer then a measily 10.
I understand the point your getting though.
>Bing bing wahoo always has at least good games
Once again a very subjective point but I will admit, the overall consistent quality of Bing Bing Wahoo is quite commendable compared to what Sega has going on at the moment.

>>53925
I'm talking main games, I cant think of a bad 2d or 3d mario, maybe mario land?
but with sonic theres 4 ep1 and ep2, 06, forces, lost world, superstars etc

>>53929
>I'm talking main games
All of the "NSMB" games made after the Wii are all copy paste slop, fun slop, but still slop.
Sonic 4 isn't even part of the main-line series anymore.
Sonic 06 (in MY opinion) is a pretty ok game, the gem system adds a level of skill to the very open and explorative levels, level types you simply cannot in something like Mario.
Forces as a whole is just stupidly easy to the point of being boring.
Lost World is a VERY subjective game.
Superstars is also a VERY subjective game.
>raisin nobody cares about below, read with caution.
As I've stated many times now, everything is subjective in both franchises, maybe a bit more with Sonic sure, but it's all still very much person to person.
From all perspectives outside of video games to me anyways, Sonic absolutely demolished the competition through sheer fan devotion and autism alone, but once again ALL subjective.

Some more old sovl since this thread caused me to fall back down the fan content rabbit hole.

>>53943
call this soul but consider the fact that the people who made this stuff turned out as troons or soy'd out the moment they hit 30
I fear for our generation

>>53952
Sadly true albeit.
Luckily some of the people who made this stuff fucked off the internet after their video went viral.

This thread sucks, every autist who's been bumping it is a drain on soyciety. Eugenics NOW

>>53956

>Kys actual clinically diagnosed retard, i'm tired of seeing your sperg non-discussion. You shouldn't have been allowed to be born.

>>53936
yet they wasted the title "sonic 4" on it
sonic 06 is good and has a good corny sonic story but having to play a fan restoration to experience that is sad
superstars isn't subjective though the levels are so raisin and the bosses demand you sit there and pick your ass waiting to hit them, its a downgrade after mania was so good
lost world is bland its just a mario game which considering what came before it is embarrassing
frontiers looks like sega hired that man
Whatever you can say it's subjective but if you look at it objectively the games aren't cutting edge anymore, sonic has SLOWED down in terms of his speed since generations. You can tell a bunch of Japanese postgraduates made the games I mean just look at how sonic snaps to full speed in frontiers. I just want my gemmy spunky high quality sonic back not rushslop with a story a 10 year old would scoff at

SNCA AHEAD

>>54138
>having to play a fan restoration to experience that is sad
Emulation is very much possible with Sonic 06, you can always download fan-patches such as "Legacy of Solaris" or raw-dog the original game like I have multiple times.
>superstars isn't subjective though the levels are so raisin
Fair enough, I enjoyed them for what they were but I will admit some of them felt very gimmicky, the level design themselves aren't all that bad, it's a nice mix of Sonic 2 and Mania.
>bosses demand you sit there and pick your ass waiting to hit them
Fair enough, I had a similar issue with the final boss.
>lost world is bland its just a mario game
Even though the game leaned heavily into a gimmick that Soytendo would never bother trying in 3D, that being parkour.
Sonic Lost World if anything feels more like a spiritual successor to Sonic X-Treme instead of "Mario Galaxy 3" like many others like to state, but maybe that's just me.
>frontiers looks like sega hired that man
I have to agree one hundred percent with this, Frontiers was a fat steaming piece of slop and I really wish SEGA stuck to what they got right instead of trend chasing like what they done with Unleashed (Beat 'em ups like God of War were all the rage when Unleashed was being developed, that's how we got the Werehog.)
Frontiers from all perspectives is a flawed game that deserves all the criticism it gets, the cut-scenes all resemble what a child would make in SFM as all the characters do nothing but stand still while their talking animation loops.
The level design in the Open-Zone doesn't work well with Sonics moveset as he's constantly flying off random pieces of loose collision and when that's not happening your sticking to surfaces like your shoes are glued to the ground.
The Cyberspace is just plain lazy, the physics also stink, as they just don't play well with the ported Generations and Adventure 2 levels and don't get me started on the fucking horrendous story and collectathon gameplay because I'd be here all day.
>if you look at it objectively the games aren't cutting edge anymore
This has been true since Sonic 3&K albeit, the entire gimmick of the franchise was always "WOW, look at how fast this game is, other games have NEVER done this before, must be that blast processing!" and that fucked SEGA over the second the PS1 came out.
Sega of America and Sega of Japan spent literal years trying to tard-wrangle each-other because they didn't know what the actual fuck to do now that they're main selling point "BLAST PROCESSING" is now a literal nothingburger.
You can always argue that the Adventure games were cutting edge due to how "loose" the game was with it's physics and muh momentum but kids simply do NOT care about any of these things, kids, also known as the main market for the entire franchise as we know it.
>Japanese postgraduates made the games I mean just look at how sonic snaps to full speed in frontiers.
That's more to blame on the sloppy re-using of codebases.
Frontiers was built off of Forces, Forces was built off of Lost World, the same Lost World that is notable for having a RUN button.
SEGA pretty much coding the game to say "once you hit X speed, go to RUN speed" with nothing to dampen the sharp transition, causing the aforementioned snap.
This entire issue could be resolved if SEGA just wrote new code instead of pseudo-fixes, or better yet, RE-USE the Generations movement code.
>I just want my gemmy spunky high quality sonic back not rushslop with a story a 10 year old would scoff at
Same man, same.
My dream game at this point would just be a simple "Sonic Rush 3" with a decent story comparable to Black Knight to boot.
All we can do is wait and see what SEGA has in-store, or what dograisin Ians gonna write alongside it.

Shut the fuck up

tsmt

the character design is a magnet for autists
>bright unnatural colours
>large facial features to make it easier to understand emotions
>thin limbs and large extremities (hand/feet etc (idk why but autists *love* this))
>non-human anthropomorphised to add a layer of abstraction to social interaction to make it less intimidating

>>55092
Holy mental gymnastics. Just admit its cool nigger

How can you honestly look at this and not think it's cool?
What's not cool a blue Hedgehog running around at Mach 10 without giving a care in the world. while rescuing the whole world just because he wants to?
That's the best part, he's not a hero, but rather the wind itself, as he goes around doing whatever he wants, he doesn't care what others say and instead forges his own path and follows it.
That's cool.

>>55102
>>55121
are you the same autistic faggot from the mario 64 ds thread lmao? Sonic is not *cool* he hasn't been *cool* since 1999, arguably 1994 (15 years before you were born), you don't need to spend all your free time trying to defend a franchise which peaked before anyone on this website was even born

>>55126
>are you the same autistic faggot from the mario 64 ds thread lmao
Perchance.
>you don't need to spend all your free time trying to defend a franchise
Huge overstatement nigger, at fucking most it’s 10 minutes out of my week tops and that’s only if I want to respond, if you spout bullshıt I’ll point it out, simple as.

>>55126
Also, only one of those messages was mine.
I’m not samefagging that fucking hard dude.

>>55121
I remember playing this on my ps2.
The levels where you played as regular sonic were awesome.
The ones where you played as monster sonic was just spamming the attack button until the level was over.
The music on that game was legendary.

>>55088
imagine being the guy that had to wear the amy suit
>>55092
It's largely the same with mario albeit instead of anthropomorphic he's 3 foot tall and can't say more than 3 words at a time. It's character design to appeal to kids that doesn't make it autistic, no need to be so dire kek.

>>55169
Tsmt but I played it on the wii. I remember being disappointed there was no level for the Africa nation.

>>55169
>>55178
I'm really surprised that I'm not the only person on here who's played UnWiished, I'd argue it's better then the base game.
>The ones where you played as monster sonic was just spamming the attack button until the level was over.
In all fairness, those levels went by very fast on the Wii and PS2 because Dimps de-bloated the fuck out of them in comparison to the HD release.
>imagine being the guy that had to wear the amy suit
Imagine the necessary months of dancing lessons in that suit, Christ that would suck.

On an unrelated note, today is the 31st Anniversary to Sonic SatAM, to "celebrate" here's the Team Sea3on preview that was uploaded to their YouTube a while back, I highly recommend supporting these people as they've been working on this project for years now.

>>55720
even doe the YM2612 is an eargasm tool

>>55733
NTA but fucking TRVKE, it works so well with every single Sonic song, Genesis or not.
Without the amazing music and the YM2612 by extention, the Classic trilogy would've never reached the impeccable status it has now.
Imagine how raisin the ending of Sonic 2 would've been if it didn't have such a great backing track to really get across the "we did it" energy that just ties the knot so well on the adventure.
Same goes for the other Sonic games on the Genesis / Mega Drive.

>>55716
What a brilliant Swan-song to the Genesis era of Sonic.
