Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 1

[MadeManG74]

Well, you DID buy Sonic and Sega All Stars Racing...

Joking, joking. You guys are alllright.

Well, you DID buy Sonic and Sega All Stars Racing...

Joking, joking. You guys are alllright.

So did Sanus... and Aki and everyone else here. It's a good game too...

The Sonic 4 episodes are taking steps in the right direction far more then any of the recent Sonic games... It might not be perfect but it's a start.

[Aki-at]

Hang on a second, I never bought SEGA All-Stars Racing!

I had Yakuza 3 and 4 to play around that time, busy cracking skulls and whooing transexual call girls.

[MadeManG74]

I also was cracking skulls and dating shemales, but I didn't have Yakuza 3 yet.

I haven't freaked out once... Not to mention I havent baught a Sonic game since Sonic Adventure 2 so I'm not sure were you get that idea from. Sonic was never my favourite aspect of Sega although I've wanted it to improve for years.

You have gotten very mad at me in almost every post, questioning my thinking patterns in even the post I am responding to. I consider that freaking out.

You are always the first one to talk about new Sonic games no matter what, even before Shadi does. Just because you have not 'baught' a Sonic game in years means nothing. You are a fanboy, and you cannot admit it.

Sonic the Hedgehog 4 is all kinds of steps in the right direction... There delaying it to work on it... What more do you want?

Are you REALLY crying about the name? I mean really... What next? Eye colour?

You are still completely missing the point. Let's put it this way.

Shenmue Online comes out, but is called Shenmue III. Yeah, it continues the story and has similar gameplay elements, similar art that is not as good and the music is much different and is made by people who largely do not understand what Shenmue was about? Well, I will tell you to STOP WHINING, because at least we got Shenmue III!

Yo playaz!

I was rushing out of work last comment I typed, but I meant to add: no bad blood over others opinions on Sonic 4, I was just pointing out the circuitous nature of our discussions and how we probably won't have firm opinions until the game releases.

As for making a joke out of everything, when it all comes down to it we're talking about video games. Hardly something to get too worked up over. I just hate to see things dip into deathly serious.

Well I do not care in the long run because I am not getting it (at least, not in separate episodes). I am annoyed that when I state my opinion, people will say I am a troll or whining and not really respond to my comments when I feel all of my arguments are well established and easy to understand.

Sharky thinks the old Sonic games were just blatant rip-offs of Mario anyway. I think the line was 'Sonic is just a blue Mario'.

He's faster too... But at the end of the day Sega big wigs sat around a table at Sega HQ said 'Hey we got all these awesome arcade games but we don't have a mario and polls say thats what kids want'...

And the rest is history... Sonic does a lot of the things Mario does, but faster and I think that was the initial idea.

AND SHINOBI HAS ALWAYS BEEN A HACK N SLASH AND GOLDEN AXE NEEDS QTES

But seriously, what MadeMang meant to say was that you do not know what you are talking about because you think Sonic has always been a Mario ripoff.

Then again according to Sanus I'm some kind of fanboy that'll just buy anything Sonic related... Make up your mind boys... Have a little chat about it, come back... Tell me what I am then.

I did not say you would ever even buy it in any of my posts, so quit putting words into my mouth, ya whippersnapper, dangnabbit!

Well, you DID buy Sonic and Sega All Stars Racing...

Joking, joking. You guys are alllright.

See, that is okay, because it is an original release. If it was marketed or read off as if it were a sequel to something like SEGA Rally Championship, I would be flipping my shit something crazy!

[Pao]

Is this news? Apparently the game is also coming to the Ipad.

[Sharky]

You have gotten very mad at me in almost every post, questioning my thinking patterns in even the post I am responding to. I consider that freaking out.

I haven't even broken a sweat once yet.

Proof, right now.
Backing up what you say with some hard evidence has always been your weak point.

You are still completely missing the point. Let's put it this way.

You would have a point if Sonic 4 was an MMORPG... and not ... well a game that plays like classic sonic bar a few minor changes.

AND SHINOBI HAS ALWAYS BEEN A HACK N SLASH AND GOLDEN AXE NEEDS QTES

Did I say that? proof?
Looking forward to you finding it.

But seriously, what MadeMang meant to say was that you do not know what you are talking about because you think Sonic has always been a Mario ripoff.

Not a rip off... Similar. What would that have to do with anything anyway... I still played the same classic Sonic games you did.

Can't see how me saying that Sega needed a platformer to compete with Mario and so made Sonic has anything to do with my opinion that Sonic 4 isnt that bad.

[MadeManG74]

I think that new Sonic games need an in-depth combo system like Bayonetta.

(I'm just fooling around now, don't take my posts seriously)

Well it is fucking 90 degrees here, so I hate you!

Dude, you were the first one to mention Sonic Colors to me, the first to talk to me about Sonic the Hedgehog 4 when both first teasers were revealed, a lot of stuff. If you cannot remember then that is your fault.

Logic has always been your weak point.

You would have a point if Sonic 4 was an MMORPG... and not ... well a game that plays like classic sonic bar a few minor changes.

No, Shenmue is an RPG, so just adding three letters to that means it is classic Shenmue, STOP WHINING!

AND SHINOBI HAS ALWAYS BEEN A HACK N SLASH AND GOLDEN AXE NEEDS QTES

Not those words exactly, but you did say things like that. The Shinobi one is in the 'rumored new Shinobi game with Bayonetta engine' thread, and the Golden Axe one was on SEGA Nerds when Beast Rider was coming out in a few days.

Can't see how me saying that Sega needed a platformer to compete with Mario and so made Sonic has anything to do with my opinion that Sonic 4 isnt that bad.

Lets say Fluffy is gay, okay I know it is hard to believe but just work with me here. If a woman came onto him that did not understand what being a homosexual meant then she would think she had a chance with him.

It is like, you just do not know what made the old games all that great or important or anything. I am not trying to sound like and elitist here, and I am glad you like this game and all, but you are frankly being an ass to anyone who does not agree with you entirely.

[Sharky]

We can go in circles for the next 10 pages and finally agree to disagree or we can do it now.
I cant be arsed anymore honestly.

Also, if theres one thing I know. It's that fuzzy is not gay, just like rainbows and unicorns.

If you want to believe it.

Also, what's with this:

But our source is pessimistic that Sonic’s physics will be made just right, citing an internal lack of classic Sonic comprehension.

How can the company that made Sonic Advance not understand how the Genesis games played?

[Sharky]

I have word, directly from someone that works at Sega... That the Sonic Colours 'leak' on TSSZ is complete guess work and any similarity with the final product will be simply a good guess... Most of it is just blindingly obvious.

And I would say the same is true for this new Sonic 4 leak...

Its just some retard trying to create hits for his site... I know more about the inner workings of what Sega are doing right now then he ever will. But Segabits has taste, were not going just out to get some cheap hits. We'll do it by being better then he is.

[Orta]

I just read five pages worth of posts. Here I was, thinking I was the delusional one, still day dreaming about my brand new Dreamcast. I totally agree about giving Sonic 4 a shot but I honestly can't understand why most of you keep your hopes up when you know it's quite likely that this game will be bad. Tip: Takashi Iizuka.

Game looks fine so far... I'm not expecting to play Sonic 2 remastered im expecting to play a HD 2D Sonic game...
