Sonic and... stuff...

[Yoder]

So....do you think they should just get rid of the voice acting altogether, except for a few little noises? It works for Mario.

Not to be cynical, but everybody would then clai that Sega ripped off of Nintendo (which they blame the entire Sonic series of).

~~~~~~~~

Voices speaking while playing is a nice addition they've tried out in the more recent games.

going onto what Yoder said, yes the different characters should be played differently

here's a few suggestions on some of the character gameplay:

Sonic - HE SHOULD BE SONIC, keep him the fast hedgehog he is, get rid of alot of the platformer statistics, but keep some of them in, but make it so that Sonic is the fastest thing alive as he is meant to be!

Tails - make HIM the platformer, he can fly! and give him alot of gadgets and/or weapons to help him along the way, why? BECAUSE HE'S A FREAKING GENIUS! stop making Tails look like a retarded eight year old kid liek how Archie portrays him, and make him the genius he's supossed to be, how Sega intended him to be!

Knuckles - basically take the gameplay style of Soul Calibur Legends (running around, HAVING to fight people to continue), and replace Siegfried with Knuckles, he's the freakin fighter guy, not a treasure hunter! Have you ever notice that the Master Emerald is always safe when he's not around? and when he's actually guarding it (or trying to) it always breaks?!

Rouge - make HER the treasure hunter, SHE'S the jewel hunting bat! She should be the tresure hunter, not Knuckles. Rouge = treasure hunter, Knuckles = combatant, Rouge = yes, Knuckles = no

Big - keep the fact that he's a fishercat, he does nothing but fish, maybe make him a bonus minigame character or something, I don't really care

Shadow - semi speed, semi combatant, I like the fact they gave him guns and vehicles, so keep the style of Shadow The Hedgehog, just make it better, and not so much choosing sides. Though I'd prefer it if they started from Adventure Two and made him die, but somethings are just meant for people to dream about them

Silver - either make him return or the future, or make him faster. He's only anoying because he's so slow, make him semi speed, semi platformer or puzzle, just make him faster than he already is

Amy - NO

Cream - NO, well... atleast not as an adventure character, maybe a character that just takes care of Chao

E-123 Omega - he EXPLODES, and the little birdy inside of him flies away like the rest of them

Blaze - could care less, I don't really know much about her... 'cept she controls fire, so make her levels kind of revolve around that

now having those options, would be pretty cool.

So Sega, do those things, refine your engines, and bring back the Chao Garden, and please, no big city levels, the city levels in SA1 were good because they were small and easy to find things in them, the cities in SONIC the Hedgehog (2006) were just... no

and sorry about this, I should probably have just made a movie rant about this stuff rather than complain about it on a forum '

Well, I agree with all those things, except the Omega part. I liked him being the last E-series robot, moping up the floor with inferior robots. And besides, it seems like ALL the robot characters get destroyed (except for Metal Sonic who is constantly being rebuilt), c'mon why do ALL robot characters HAVE to be expendable?!

Also, I would like to see Robotnik be playable again like he was in SA2. But I also would like to see him be the final boss again. Maybe, be could create a fake menace, and act like he's helping the good guys, then turn on them at the last minute!

I liked how Shadow became a secret agent of sorts, personally I think Shadow should have a simular play to Sonic as he did in SA2, despite it just being a model swap, its the only play that people haven't moaned about. And keep his motor bike thing but have it sort of seperate from the platforming.

Eggman, please, I liked that he was playable, and I love seeing the story from different sides.

[Yoder]

I like the idea of giving the later character combinations of skills.
Shadow: Speed+Combat
Silver: Speed+Platforming/Hunting
Amy: Platforming+Hunting
Cream: She could be the omochao/instructor of this fictional game.
Blaze: Combat+Platforming/Hunting
