A T4-TV Discussion: the Sonic Franchise Part IV

[SmashLuigiFan1]

TBH Dr. Robotnik sounds badass to a degree while Eggman just sounds like...well...an egg man lol.

[pippo17173]

Sega please bring the other franchise that you threw like garbage. 

[DalekJamie12]

i agree with Cyberwolf SEGA/Sonic team is making some sonic games like sonic genensis for GBA crap

[ShadowStar1224]

This wasn't really about the sonic fanbase, was it?

[Cyberwolf087]

@ShadowStar1224:

Point taken; I'll rename the title.  Thanks for your input.

[TheLeetCasualGamer]

For part II. The rice-ball thing is called Nori (edible seaweed)

[RaycxellTorres]

PINGAS!!!

[REALmikegordan]

I don't know about the graphics part. I have Sonic '06, and I have an HD TV. Even on that television, the game is ugly as sh*t.

[NinjaNina9]

I want to see another NiGHTS game soon in this generation, it was very beautiful and artistic. C'MON SEGA! STOP DEPENDING ON SONIC ALL THE TIME! You're just ignoring the other franchises and leaving them in the fucking dust!

[StarTheWolf32]

Sonic Colors will change you're opinions on 3D or even 2D Sonic game.and Jason got Fired and Roger Craig Smith or better known as Ezio from Assassin's Creed 2.

[StarTheWolf32]

Sonic Colors will change you're opinions on 3D or even 2D Sonic game.

[FranzHopper50]

In my opinion, secret rings was bad because of the controls, HE NEVER STOPPED MOVING! The missions and worlds didn't make much sense. (example of useless mission: Dont touch vases. Which was way to hard because it was too hard to make him brake/slow down.) (example of useless world: Dinosaurs. WTF does that have to do with Agrabah and genies?!?)

[FranzHopper50]

You guys were right in part 3, they seem to be running out of ideas for sonic. A new Jet set radio game would be epic, you mentioned gun star heroes, that's all I can think of off the top of my head, but I gaurentee there is more.

[jammin990]

id say the archies comics were also good

[SethTheArcticFox92]

You know, I think the Sonic Series went downhill when Sega decided to stop making their own consoles and focus more on games. It's so sad it's not even funny how it back-fired on them (with the acception of Secret of the Rings and the Sonic Rush Adventures. And to be honest, I liked Sonic X, but that was before I was smart enough to realize 4k!ds made horrible dubs. After that, I like watching MugiMikey's Sonic X redubs. xD

[puene1]

squeakers was right! graphics are what matters not gameplay! (lol)

[JDemshick]

@puene1 Its Gameplay! Thats why next gen sucked

[MiriamSaka17]

When in part two, Darkness said the only thing 4Kids did right was Pokemon, i disagree. I think they also did pretty well with Ultimate Muscle. some of the voices are weird, like how they gave buffalo man a Russian sounding accent (because buffalo man is from spain.)

[THEANIMEPERV]

KILL SQUEEKERS HE SUX.

[calegaea75432]

everything i agree with i rate u 10/5

honestly i dont like disscusions taht much tho

(except the sonic hentai because it isnt a big deal)

[crippledkangaroo15k]

i agree with the robotnik/eggman debate its just like arguing zoro and zolos name change in 4kids. Or a better example would be megaman and rockmans name change... people dont bitch and argue about that!!

[xcommentarys]

XD i totally agree

the only sonic forums that doesnt do that is chao island

[xa30standard99]

hey i have an idea howbout you get a petition and send it to sega that will get their attention

[nintendork67]

I hate Antwat

[t377y000]

sonic the best i

[hypershadow512]

i used to be a werid sonic fan saying stuff

like OH MY GOD SONIC IS ASWOMSE SONIC IS THE BEST AND ALL HIS GAMES ARE GOOD

but i don't think of sonic like that anymore i still like sonic but not a lot as i used too in 2007

[BladeLight52]

Sonic unleashed was an Ok game. I like it. At least it is better than Sonic Next Gen.

You are going to love this. @_@

i made a video about the sonic games. All I said was that Sonic Next gen was one of the worst games I have ever played. Guess what happened? The fanbase attacked me.

[CMCK1001]

I only have one thing to say:

Prrromotion!

[SonicVoiceFan]

Heroes was interesting why did people bash it. Ryan Drummond for Sonic. oh besides this voice thing I understand how you feel about adventure

[Paildramon360]

Squeakers? Squeaaakers? WHERE THE HELL R U SQUEAKERS?!!

[kariookami44]

I THINK THEY TRIED TO CORRECT THEIR mistake with the name in sonic x or sonic 2 adventurer when robot nick is the grandfather of egg man. but dubbing makes thing worse normally.

and i do prefer game play but one of my friend loved it after i had to exsplain everything about it hes only just defeated silver.

as for me i cant play it for the simple reason it bors me and ive only done 3 leaves with sonic in well the game that silver first plays in.(forgot what its called)

[nintendork67]

I've also heard a rumor that there was going to be a prequal to Sonic Unleased that explains what leads to the intro of S.U.

[LeonSKennedy828]

AoSTH and SatAM were the best Sonic shows IMO, every one since then has gotten worse and worse

I disagree on the Freedom Fighters too, I loved all of 'em

[qwertyblue64]

For me, I refer to him as Robotnik when I'm referring to the earlier games and cartoons, and I refer to him as Eggman when referring to SA or SA2 onward when he started to be called Eggman in the US.

[SonicVoiceFan]

Thank you Querty Blue. You have the perfect mindset for the addressing of Eggman and Robotnik. I have the same idea and I have always had it that way.

[qwertyblue64]

And it's kind of funny that Sally Acorn's posterior is made in China, particularly because the comic is Japanese (I think, but I think the 4th one (the gay one with Shadow raping Tails) was co-made by an American doujninshi artist. (Don't ask me how I know this.)

[qwertyblue64]

And Darkness, they're called Freedom Fighters, and I remember that they consist of Sonic, Tails, and Sally (of course), Rotor, a walrus who acts as a mechanic, and Antoine, a French coyote who's a complete pussy, though if I was in that situation, I'd probably be like Antoine as well. (I never understood why he had to be French. Do they think the French are wusses? After all, they kicked England's butt in the Hundred Year's War.)

[qwertyblue64]

When I first heard of Sonic Underground and watched some clips and YTP,

I was thinking: "Wow, Sonic apparantly has a brother and a sister, and they're all children of a queen, making them princes and princesses and the sister's sort of a bitch, the brother's kind of a dimwitt, Robotnik's henchmen are a creepy wolf and some wierd steroid-taking dingo who can transform into vehicles. THEY MUST'VE BEEN ON CRACK WHEN THEY MADE THIS!"

Seriously, I really hate Sonic Underground.

[qwertyblue64]

Also, they could've gotten licenses from The Offspring and other good pop punk bands for the Sonic games, basically bands who make music that's not just for video games. I'd like to hear the song "All I Want" by the Offspring in a Sonic game.

[qwertyblue64]

I hate most of the human characters, particularly Elise and Chris "Marty Stu" Thorndyke. And the only post-2005 characters I give a damn about are Blaze (one of my favorite characters actually.) and Mephiles (most badass Sonic Villain who isn't Eggman)

[qwertyblue64]

I didn't know people still remembered my Sonic Hentai rants. Also, another thing about the new characters, unfortunately, as soon as a new character is introduced, some perv makes porn of it. (See "Sonic Shorts" on YouTube or Newgrounds)

[seg162]

EPISODE 99?!?!?

[MuscleBomber2021]

Awsome Skype chat you guys,as for Sonic chronicles,I highly doubt Bioware will screw it up,they're known for Kickass RPGs like Mass Effect and Star Wars Jedite(whatever)

[BladeLight52]

Squeakers deserved it.

[ninterror]

Squeaker Got pwned!

[zzzzzzzzzzzzz9483942]

i mostly call robotnick eggman

[LeonSKennedy828]

In regards to the cartoons and movies, I hate them all besides AoSTH and SatAM, and I loved all of SatAM's characters myself, and the overall storyline which I was very upset to see cut off thanks to Power Retards...sorry, Power Rangers (for the record, Power Retards sucks IMO, so SO much)

[cybertoad707]

I wonder what fate awaits T4?

[cutter26947]

sonic unleshed was eriginaly going to be called sa3

[RocMegamanX]

Part III:

+I never really watched SatAM...and it doesn't look like it'd interest me, because it looks too dark to me.

[RocMegamanX]

Part I:

+People were actually saying that Shadow is NOT A SONIC GAME and that it's just a new concept and that we should get used to it. Shadow should NOT and does NOT use guns. That's like Sonic using guns.

Part II:

+I actually don't think the "Humans" in Sonic OVA were actually humans...notice that girl's tail?

+Silver the Hedgehog=Trunks(nuff said)

+490 Pokemon? THAT'S why the franchise jumped the shark IMO

+I compare Dragon Ball Z to Sonic a lot. I blame Sonic 2 for Genesis.

(cont'd)

[paranoidude]

actually 487 pokemon to be exact XD

[ADude6]

I've never grow up with Sonic the Hedgehog until I buy Sonic Heroes because it reminds me of the old Sonic games like Sonic 1 and 2.

I've never know that the fanbase will be falling apart all because of voice acting and other crap is going on.i'm glad the flame war is over.BTW, What I'm made of... the closing theme of Sonic Heroes, it's kick ass! XD

[Snakebite2468]

Cliffhanger ending!

DUN DUN DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN!!!!! =P

And cool discussion T4 and Darkness.

[Narutoprincess101]

i like sonic.

[cloudshad]

i hope sonic unleashed is good too i was being an idiot and pre-ordered it

[VyraManic]

I do like Sonic Heroes because MAN the music rocked in that. And I thought the team play with different abilities rocks, although Fly is sometimes INCREDIBLY frustrating...

Also, wicked. A bit of dark character drama. >D It looks like Metal Sonic's eye... although don't quote me on that. lol.

[UraharaKakashiXIII]

the mysteirious being has to be metal sonic.

[ChaosJon1]

I lold when you said in pt3 you thought luigi was a new character.

No one pays attention to weegee:(

[BladeLight52]

Thank you for beating up Squeakers. ^^

[BladeLight52]

I like the japanese version of Sonic X.

4kids ruined it with horrible voices, unnecessary editing, inaccurate dialogue (with crappy puns), and ear-piercing background music.

The japanese version has soothing voices, interesting dialogue (with GOOD jokes), and rock/techno background music.

If you are interested in Sonic X, watch the japanese version.

[SonicFamilyGal]

Hell yeah! The soothing and superior voices are a GREAT way to open up to the Japanese language, because it's one of the best foreign languages EVER!

[BladeLight52]

I can imagine Sonic speaking Korean. XD

I can speak some Korean because I'm 25% Korean. Koreans have soothing voices as well. Korean language is actually very easy to learn than Japanese and chinese.

[DarkLink9393]

I don't like Mario either. Same as Sonic, he's taken up too much of the spotlight. And a small example of that would be all the commercials Mario gets for his games. Out of all the time I've watched TV, I have only seen about 1 commercial for every other Nintendo series like Zelda and Starfox while Mario gets a commercial for every game, even if it's just a baseball game Mario version.

[SaitoForte]

I find it sad that the iPod version of Sonic the Hedgehog is a more faithful port than the GBA port. Its a lot harder to play, but its more enjoyable.

[Nightmare060]

I might re-consider my opinions on Sonic Heroes. I haven't realy thaught of it too well so far, but I might re-play it and give it a more fair review.

One thing I did love about the game is Metal Sonic, and the music.

[schmidtyrevolution]

good discussion, man, 5/5.
