Sonic Unleashed

[Alpha Six]

he's a nintendo character though

and that's important enough

[Goemar]

With how ass Sonic Heroes was I wouldn't be surprised. I mean when did Sonic and Knuckles become bum buddies...?
And that "Come stop me 'Sonic Heroes' muhahaha" intro speech is basically all you need to judge that game.

I'm not against things being different. Luigi's Mansion in my eyes was a good game, Mario Sunshine however was not.
But as Sega keep saying that they're brining Sonic back to his roots why the hell does he turn into a werehog? Was that in Sonic 2?

And if you Gary (a non-gamer) can say that the bits looked un-interesting surely you are in a agreement with me when I say that the game would probably be better without these bits.

[Alpha Six]

sonic's gameplay himself is OBVIOUSLY very true to his roots

especially since it's in 2.5D

werehog is just something extra so we don't get

you know

bored out of seeing the same thing over and over and over

like, say, sonic 2

[Goemar]

The only extra thing being added here is a huge pile of shit into Sonic's open mouth.
And same thing over and over isn't what I'm after but as far as I know there hasn't been a 2.5D sonic game yet. Sonic Rush was pretty much all 2D so that in itself isn't repetitive.

No, those bits were uninteresting because the whole game overall didn't interest me. I'm just not into platform games that much anymore, or games overall.

And calling me a non-gamer is really retarded. Just because I don't play games doesn't mean I'm not involved in gaming.

Seriously, I say it again, you're just trying to rub everyone in the wrong direction. You already pissed off the moderating team on CaptainN.net, I really hope you lay low, on ANY place.

And xTYVONx, I don't know if you know this, but I've grown a serious disliking to the term "2.5D".

2D gameplay, 3D graphics = 2.5D.

gary would you prefer we say "2D gameplay with 3D models/graphics?"

because that is drawn-out and takes too long to type when you're just trying to make a statement : |

[GaryCXJk]

How about "2D in 3D"? Seriously, there is no half dimension. It's bullshit. Just call it 2/3D if it makes you feel better, but not 2.5D. It's just stupid. It's just a 2D game or a 3D game, but if it moves in two dimensions, it's just a 2D game.

[Goemar]

2.5D has always been a 2D game with 3D elements to it. Adding Polygons to it doesn't really make it 2.5D as it's still 2D.
So I agree with you there gary.

But I didn't piss any CaptainN mods off I just got bored and deleted my own account one day, mostly because I felt the staff had let N-finity down after his passing.

And it's not like this is anything too serious, it's fun to argue about a game's direction.

[Eddo]

Werehog could turn out okay if they don't take him too seriously in the story. If not, we'll get a story similar to Sonic '06, and nobody wants that. And if we turn out hating him, wwe can play through those levels and never play them again.

The Sonic gameplay seems great, but seriously, Sega, this isn't taking Sonic back to his roots, good game or not.

that's what i said

[GrooveMan.exe]

Rakia and Goemar, can we stop being antagonistic jerks now plz?

Especially you, rakia. You've already said that you don't like the series; so you don't have much reason for continuing to state that ITT.

[Goemar]

Sorry, I was just really looking forward to this, as a young'un me and my bro used to sit and play the old Sonic games, and I keep getting promised that one day that kind of Sonic game is coming back. I wouldn't be so mad if they didn't say this game was a return to the Sonic I knew.

[Flare]

Sonic Advance?

That game is the closest to the old games.

[Goemar]

Sonic Advance was ok, but I felt the second was better, minus the crap bosses. Or was it the first one with crap bosses... I forget.

[Eddo]

The second one had bosses where you were constantly running.
