kingpotato Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 It makes me a little sad that most recent games for Sonic are average or bad, I remember playing Sonic 2 with my cousins on the Genesis and as of today its still a great game. Sonic has been in many game genres in the last decade, from being a Werewolf, having a sword an air board or even a speed boat. I cant really remember a good Sonic game from this past generation except maybe the ones with the Olympic games with Mario. What's your opinion on the Sonic Franchise ? Have you played any of the latest released games from the last couple of years ? or will you rather stick with the Classics ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The common thread you'll see among many people is that Sonic Games are inconsistent. However, Sonic Mania / Generations / Boom: Shattered Crystal & Fire & Ice / Unleashed / Colors have proven that 3D sonic games can work and be excellent. It's just a matter of having an adequate sense of taste. Heck, 1/3 of Sonic 06 is good in terms of level design and exploration and if you have a doubt about that, you can go and play the fan re-creation demos. kingpotato 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still remember Sonic on the Sega Genesis as well - how far gaming has come! It was one of my favorite game as a kid but after a while, I lost interest in Sonic because the gameplay was kind of repetitive. The replayability factor of said games was basically non-existent. kingpotato 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supposedly they are going to fix it due to the backlash. I wasn't really expecting much of the movie but yeah they better fix that abomination.

skyfire Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 After the movie release, I am sure there will be dedicated fanbase from this generation. The way the animation was created. I kind of hated it. And I don't think the franchise cares for our opinion on that design though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyfire Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 I have no idea how people can deal with the pikachu and sonic's design. I mean they are not even canon looking or even closer. I just hope that they don't mess it up even further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you seen the movie ? You should give it a try, its not an oscar winning movie but its definitely funny and worth it. Why you dont like Pikachu's design? I mean the movie is realistic enough and they didnt messed up the character like in Sonic's movie, which by the way they are currently fixing and they even delayed the movie until 2020 to give more time to the producers and designers.

Executor Akamia Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Pikachu looks perfectly fine to me. Which is far more than I can say about Movie Sonic. I'm glad they decided to change it. Hopefully something much closer to either of the major Sonic designs from the games, but I'll accept something resembling Boom Sonic too. ... Just so long as they fix the shoes. Give him the shoes he's always had, or at least something similar that doesn't fully compromise the aesthetic. I'll accept the Adventure 2 soap shoes over those things his original movie design was wearing. Although to be honest, the soap shoes looked pretty neat, actually. I wish they brought those back sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not yet. I may skip the movie. The reason being I am fan of the 2D pikachu design. And this fury 3D design kind of gets me. I only like the "how to train your dragon" as 3D animated canon. Otherwise pokemons look gross in 3D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyfire Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 I am wondering if I am the only one who hated to see the cute pikachu turned into stoner pikachu? I know with ryan ronalds giving the voice over, it was meant to be something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alyxx Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 The Sonic franchise has been really hit and miss since pretty much the Sonic Adventure era. Some of my recent favourites include Sonic Colours, Sonic Generations and Sonic Mania. There are a lot of modern titles you can skip though unless you're a hardcore fan. Personally my absolute favourite game in the franchise is Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
