when 'eggman' said i hate the way you talk, i like to think that he's talking about sonic's new voice actor (i flippin hate him he doesn't sound like sonic AT ALL) Mr.Rodger C. Smith.
Okay, from Sonic Adventure to Sonic Unleashed, Eggman was pretty much sidelined as the main baddie of the Sonic series. That is until, Sonic Colors, where Eggman was actually a viable threat. This became even more proven in Sonic Generations, where Eggman grabs ahold of yet another malicious force, but this time, actually maintaining control over it, instead of being sidelined as usual. Recent years have made Eggman a better villain than he was earlier from the Adventure games onward.
Princess Sally is delicious, no exceptions, the newer Robotnik is a tad better, but less menacing than the old one, and the very first Robotnik with the cape was the most badass one ever...!
You know if you hit the subtitles on the early 90s "Sonic the Hedgehog the Movie" it replaces Robotnik with Eggman. Either way i still don't know what to call him anymore.
Is it just me who thinks that Robotnik just looks wrong in the 2006 game? He's not supposed to look like a normal person! He's supposed to look like...like...like Robotnik!
Agreed, Eggman's meant to be goofy and laughable,you know, a big ham.
Make him all realistic and serious and he becomes too cliché, not to mention out-of-character..
Ironically, Sonic and Knuckles have become too goofy and laughable (which at first I thought was accidental but I'm starting to wonder, they've been like it pretty much since Sonic heroes) which I also find unfitting.
meh, I actually like it when Robotnik (I refuse to refer to him as Eggman.) is portrayed more seriously. I mean he's Sonic's arch nemesis for Pete's sakes. Of course the fact that I grew up watching Sonic SATAM may have had something to do with that. I mean, in that show the guy reeked of evil overlord, and he still looked kinda silly back then. As for the song, I can defiantly see him writing this about sonic XD
The point is He's meant to be goofy and laughable /and/ believable as a challenging enemy, it's not a case of one or the other, I can see how it could be hard to get it right, but it seems like they just take the easy way out and opt for one or the other.
There are simular cases with other characters, but that's for another day.
But I've heard good things about his portrayal in Sonic Unleashed.
Well firstly his name was always Eggman in Japan, its Sega of america who decided to call him Robotnik for some reason. And you know SATAM has nothing to do with the games, same with the comics, they were never cannon. Eggman in the game was always presented as an anti-villain, hes not really nasty or anything. That doesnt mean hes not a threat, in fact, the main reason he has not conquered the world in the gamesw is because he woudnt kill innocent people to achieve his goals.
Ah, but even Yuji Naka himself said Robotnik was his real name, and as stated in the comics the SEGA games and the X series are in alternate realities. Many of these different Sonics go through the same adventures but in a different atmosphere.
As soon as Sonic Adventures came out, Sega of Japan and Sega of America compromised, now his real name is Robotnik while his universal alias is Eggman (but he still call himself Eggman most of the time). And look, technically anyone can write a Sonic Fanfic and say it happens in alternate realities. I'm not saying SataM and the comics arent good, I'm just saying that Eggman was never that evil or serious in the games. He was always an childish genius who just really wanted to conquer the world.
Well, I must say the only evidence that even the game universe Eggman is totally evil is that in Sonic Adventure, he would've nuked an entire city if it wasn't for Tails and blown up the United Federation ( via Space Colony Ark) If it wasn't for his gramp's Doomsday device. Dr. Robotnik usually likes to strategize a more sneeky plan to rule the world. Unlike Black Doom who just invades. An all the uber military force Eggman has is either destoyed or turned agaist him. Remember a good bad = good
Sonic 2006 bugged me, Eggman isn't supposed to be serious looking. He's a fat dude who is thwarted by a hedgehog who travels at the speed of sound, the more serious you try to make it the more ridiculous it gets
@berniebay And cute animals are readily-available!! It's environmentally-friendly!....albeit not that safe, but animals are a more renewable resource anyways! Especially those fuckin rabbits!
@berniebay In the comics atleast. In the games he traps them in an existential nightmare from which the only escape is either death or getting smashed about until the shell breaks.
@berniebay Im sorry, if you have seen his Sat am version, if the voice acting alone doesnt give you chills, there is just nobody more evil then that version of Robotnik.
sorry i havent played a sonic game since i was 8. i guess u having a great time playing as an adult with nothing better to do with your life. Time to get back to the real world and my well paying job.
Eggmans Grandpa or Dad made Shadow, alright?!?! He didn't make him! OBTW, I feel the same way about Sonic, I like eggman, and i like rayman.**** sonic, I like shadow.
