Sonic Excursion/Sonic Lost World

[Bluecast]

Perhaps he watched a Youtube video of it?

I own Colors and Gens. So what are you on about?

Other games? I explained that. I'm a total cumwad for gaming. I watch play listen and read. While you watch Sex Dragons and Kill of Thrones. I watch Gaming on Youtube but on my TV not my PC. I'm just odd like that.

I had...no idea there was a big fuss about this.

Only thing I can say is this is probably the closest we're gonna get to Sonic Xtreme, so i'm interested in that. There is some Mario stuff here and there, it also looks like a bit of Galaxy. But at this point, I just want a playable Sonic game like Generations was. So if Sonic has to copy Mario, so be it.

I had Sonic on the Megadrive when it first came out. Does that make me a bigger fan of Sonic than Ryudo? I think it does.

Yeah, because the worlds in Sonic games make so much sense. A blue hedgehog jumping around in a casino? I see that shit everyday.

But they're not surreal in the older games. They were grounded in a way that worked, despite having crazy themes. You could imagine that, say, Robotnik built these places or something, and it didn't seem too far out there.
But now we have loopy levels in the sky that make no grounded sense whatsoever, as if occurring in a druggy haze. That's more of a Mario vibe, let's be honest.

I think you're letting nostalgia cloud your perspective here a bit, bro.

I don't see how. I'm making an observation about plausibility, not making commentary on quality.
The levels in the first few Sonic games weren't all that far out there. They had caves, ancient ruins, oil platforms, chemical plants, sky fortresses, ice-capped/lava-filled mountains, forests, etc. They weren't realistic by any means, but they still had a relatively "grounded" style to them.
Now we have Sonic running midair loop-de-loops in vacuum worlds that have seemingly no terrestrial ground to be seen, with donuts and pastries floating in the backgrounds no less.
How is it hard to grasp that that's at least a little more out-there and surreal than what the series used to be?

So do you want more of the same and have it go stale? Or have them try new ideas and new directions. The past couple games been faithful to the series while trying new things. While everyone is saying this game took from Mario.well Mario in the early games have lava ice and green worlds but no space and other things later games did but kept true to itself while being new. That's what Colors did that's what this looks to try and do.

A few years back you were arguing for the setting and direction of colors and were even saying how it;s back to what sonic was. Now you are reversing that.

[OL]

Well, opinions always have a chance of changing over time. Hadn't seen much of Colors at that point anyway.

More transformation shit

[OL]

If it weren't for the sound of the rings, I wouldn't have even known that was a Sonic game for most of the trailer.

[Who Really Cares?]

Pretty much nailed it.

Oh and Is Sonic really going to make those annoying noises every time he does something?
