This new trailer for Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric skips right to the point: Sonic dies. So there we go, franchise finished, I’d say it had a good run but every series has to stop sometime I guess. I mean, when was the last time Sonic got revived after dying? Probably in some game that never existed.
Also there are some new screenshots for this and Shattered Crystal and some concept art that reveals that Metal Sonic and Shadow are in this game with their designs unchanged, which you can see after the jump. SEGA also confirmed that both games will come out in Europe on November 21st.

This game continues to look awful. I wouldn’t mind the hammy narrative so much if the gameplay underneath looked appealing at all. It still feels like they can’t get a smooth camera working in those speed sections. Come on guys.
Yeah the gameplay still doesn’t look engaging, but I was actually cringing at some of the one liners/responses of dialogue in that trailer. Poor Sonic.
Sonic already dead. They are beating a dead horse and we are fools for purchasing the new material. Seriously people get with the program. Why they even bother I do not know??
Ok guys two things.
First, and this should go without saying; This characters games are made for kids…ok?…Kids!
What do kids like nowadays? Cartoons with stupid voices, simplistic gameplay akin to Rachet and Clank(with a lot of guys at Big Red Button helped make) and Skylanders…and good knows the gameplay for Skylanders aint groundbreaking…the gimmicks is the key to that series success. Most of the guys shitting on this game or calling for Sonics end Sega fans or not are really not the aim of the developers of these series. In fact the only difference between Sonic fans and Mario fans is that the adults who are still hanging on to their love for a kids game(which it is) are far less critical when they try something new with it. If you are a Sonic fan, be a fucking Sonic fan. Wait till you play the game before you shit on it. Don’t let what anyone says, not even the guys on this site; sway you from being that; but for the love of God if you are older than twelve just get it through your head, this is NOT made with you in mind. Game looks fine by the way. #STOPBITCHINPLS
