Re: Sonic Games, Hacks, & Fangames Discussion Thread

Because it's rubbish compared to the rest of the OST.

This.

[Xillatem]

Plus if the demo version of the theme is anything to go by, it was actually cutscene music. Just got looped for the final.

[iceweb38]

Cutscene music? That's news to me!

Yep, it's the only "Zone" demo song on the OST which has an ending, the rest loop as normal.

Sonic reboot designs leaked:




The newer designs in Sonic Adventure I could live with (unlike another certain community). But wow, this is bad. They are starting to look like Square-Enix characters with the massive usage of bandages and other unnecessary shit like scarfs and goggles.

No seriously, wtf is up with Knuckles? Is this his father in the new reboot?

[BigDarsh]

I'm with you Saven, plus I notice something that go against the law of the internet:
Everyone is naked except the girl.   

[iceweb38]

Awkward designs are awkward!
The shadows were already a bad omen but yeah Knuckles truly looks terrible!
Thankfully SEGA confirmed this is not replacing Modern Sonic  

But they're making a new Sonic game that will be an iteration of that Sonic Boom series. Apparently, it's a WiiU/3DS game that will be similar to Sonic Adventure.

EDIT: Can't access the Sonic Retro forums at the moment. I want to see how big of a mess there is at the moment!!

EDIT2:





I gotta be honest though, the game looks fun despite the different design!

Predictable. The reaction must've been so bad it crashed the site.

[Mr.Din]

heh looks alright, I don't really pay attention to the retarded Sonic fandom. My kids like it, just another show/game for them to enjoy. Designs could've been way better, Tails and Amy look interesting for once, Tails actually looks like he works on stuff. Sonic just has unnecessary crud all over him, wraps on shoes, for what reason? A little mixed on knuckles, kind of like the idea of him having a brawler look to him.

[iceweb38]

The more I watch that video game trailer, the more I'm actually getting hyped for it, something that did not happen with Sonic Lost Worlds. And yeah, Tails and Amy designs grow on me too, just wish Knuckles wouldn't look like that.
Are bandages the big trend these days or what?

[JoyJoyfulRabbit]

Oh god... can someone give me coffin and grave? I think I am going to die because of steroid Knuckles

[JoyJoyfulRabbit]

Sonic's car... with bandages...

[JoyJoyfulRabbit]

New character of Sonic Boom, Sticks the badger :U

She looks a lot like Marine, many people assumed it was her on the leaked poster actually

[Xillatem]

Cue entire Sonic fanbase "BAWWING" at the news of a new character, yet going on about how funny Wes Weasley was in AoStH....

[Saven]

Well, its official. A Sonic the Hedgehog movie is in the works and Sony is producing it.

It better be this:

[iceweb38]

The more trailers I see, the more I'm liking this universe, it looks much more fun and cool than what we've seen these last years.

Yet of course, Sonic fanboys keeps whining!

"OMG this looks like shit, I want Sonic Adventure 3/Shadow2/Classic Sonic game!"
"Let Sonic die please, this looks like turd"
"I won't watch/buy it because Knuckles looks like he's on steroid"

Truly a sad community this is!

Sonic 2 HD UNCANCELATED.

Popcorn ready!

[iceweb38]

I read about it, it's whole new programmers with whole new source code.

Let's just hope they won't turn out to be complete douchebags with DRMs and the likes of it. It gave such a bad reputation about the project.
Got to play Before the Sequel and After the Sequel BTW Xilla?

[Saven]

Oh good, can't wait for another poorly optimized demo that would make Watch Dogs' system specs look great in comparison and also comes along with another keylogger that Sega will just kinda glance over again.

Have they decided on the soundtrack yet? Because that's the most important thing to do in a fan game first.

[Xillatem]

Ice: I tried Before the Sequel, constantly crashed.
Saven: Everyone knows it's the trees and blades of grass that are most important..

[iceweb38]

It's already up on Youtube, search for Sonic 2 HD OST, there's some beautiful remaster out there.
Oh right, forgot about the keylogger thing, just adds to the douchebaggery.

Ice: I tried Before the Sequel, constantly crashed.

Oh have you downloaded the last updates for BTS? Gotta admit I haven't got any crashes, maybe those will stabilize the fangame on your computer

So Aaron Webber (aka RubyEclipse) resigned from SoA
http://www.tssznews.com/2014/06/27/aaron-webber-resigns-from-sega-of-america/

For those who don't know, RubyElipse was Community Manager at SEGA then Associate Brand Manager for Sonic the Hedgehog and a few other SEGA titles. He's probably the best advocate the Sonic communities could ever hope to have as it's probably thanks to him that they were given a positive light.

Can't say I'll miss him though coz he basically seemed to care about Sonic and PSO only.
I remember the times when Criss and I tweeted to know what was SEGA approach with SoR and SoRR back in the day and he never bothered to answer. :S

[Xillatem]

My brother just mentioned he bought Multimedia Fusion 2 a few months ago on Humble, so I've downloaded it.

Giving Sonic Worlds a try, I can see myself having alot of fun with this!

[iceweb38]

you're jumping on the Sonic fangaming scene?
