That looked like a bad R&C game.

 

[topplehat]

I don't necessarily have a problem with the overall direction of this game, but this makes bafflingly little sense as a follow-up to Lost World.

Sonic titles don't really tend to be connected to each other anyways.

 

[EdibleKnife]

Meh. I'll keep an ear open. Looks fine.

 

[Coffee Dog]

I don't necessarily have a problem with the overall direction of this game, but this makes bafflingly little sense as a follow-up to Lost World.

it's not a follow up to lost world.

The game doesn't even look to play the same.

 

[ffdgh]

I though that concept art of knuckles was bad but that 3D model....I can't.

Still...it looks interesting.

 

[Vampirolol]

This is the worst Sonic related thing I've ever seen in my life AND I saw many creepy fan pictures.

 

[Hale-XF11]

What's with Beefcake Knuckles?

 

[FrostuTheNinja]

We had the same idea. Hahah!

 

[SuperSah]

What the fuck did they do to Knuckles?

 

[SolidSnakex]

BigRedButton was set up by a couple of former Naughty Dog staff.

 

[Effect]

The character models are eh at the moment. What the hell did they do to Knuckles!?

I did like the look of the actual gameplay though. More should be commenting on that I think. I really want to see more of that.

 

[Nibel]

Sonic WUB WUB for 3DS and WiiWUB

 

[SonicTHP]

Somehow I like the new designs less in their fighting stance.

Environments look pretty nice though. I'm willing to see more before making any reactions.

 

[SquiddyCracker]

Their legs are terrible :/

I'm guessing Sega are trying to get the last promised game out so they can start develop games for home consoles that actually sell.

 

[Lan_97]

Looks like a fun if not somewhat generic action platformer. But good god, those character designs look even worse in game.

 

[Alienous]

Sonic just waits for death now.

You'll meet Crash in games mascot heaven, buddy.

 

[Pie and Beans]

Well that outsourced Sonic thread was right!

http://brbent.com/
to a completely new studio with nowt to its name.


Good lord, it looks abysmal. Like Sonic wants to now be Ratchet and Clank or something?

 

[Roo]

Any Youtube mirror?
Can't se the trailer in that shitty site.

 

[Lingitiz]

I don't necessarily have a problem with the overall direction of this game, but this makes bafflingly little sense as a follow-up to Lost World.

Outsourcing that Nintendo contract while Sonic Team works on next gen.

 

[Exterminieren]

it's not a follow up to lost world.

The game doesn't even look to play the same.

Well... that's kinda my point. They've followed up an exclusive title with another exclusive title that looks and plays absolutely nothing like it.

 

[Mariolee]

BigRedButton was set up by a couple of former Naughty Dog staff.

This gives me hope.

And explains why Sonic looks like Uncharted 3 Drake.

 

[Easy_D]

Big Red Button and Sanzaru, WAT!

BRB are former Naughty Dog folks!

Former Crash Bandicoot ND folks?

 

[The Silver]

what the hell is with their eyes?

 

[WillyFive]

Surprised that it's not by Sonic Team. Gameplay looks a lot like the Sonic Adventure/Sonic 06 type; with multiple playable characters.

 

[Gonzo The Great]

BigRedButton was set up by a bunch of former Naughty Dog staff.

And Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate was developed by former Retro Studios employees and the game was garbage. I don't trust these people unless they have the guidance of Nintendo or Sony.

 

[Kriken]

So Amy, Tails and Knuckles can all run at the same speed as Sonic. Either this could be like Sonic 2/3 where every character was fast, or Sonic Heroes where they just seemed fast until you played the slower characters. Only time will tell

 

[VanWinkle]

What on earth? Looks like a co-op 3D platformer in the vein of Ratchet & Clank or something?

Very interesting. Very bad trailer, but I will be on the lookout with this. I'm actually glad it's a different dev. Could go horribly or fantastically.

 

[DarknessTear]

I can't believe how bad this looks. Don't they know how bad this looks? Please tell me they know. And the music. Why?

 

[emb]

Characters look worse in game/in the trailer than the art already did.

Is this supposed to be a four player game? I really can't see that working in Sonic... Or Heroes style teams maybe?

 

[Teknoman]

Sonic Heroes & Clank: Hedgehog's Fortune.

 

[Busaiku]

Good lord.
End it now.

 

[metalslimer]

The character models are eh at the moment. I did like the look of the actual gameplay though. More should be commenting on that I think.

The gameplay looks like a more adventurish than platforming. Could be decent but I didn't see anything to indicate it looks good or bad

 

[Kid Ska]

God dammit Sega...

Why the hell is everyone part mummy? Is that supposed to be edgy?

 

[RPG_Fanatic]

The music felt out of place in the trailer. The legs at the beginning were disturbing.

Hard to comment on the gameplay at this point. I wonder if this is going to 4-players, which would be awesome for the hilarious lets play videos it would spawn.

 

[TheCongressman1]

They look so awful, I can't take it. Did they get a designer out of kindergarden or something?

I like hearing that it's focused on exploration, but I can not stand the art. Not at all.

 

[Mpl90]

Big Red Button? Who are they?

 

[Piccoro]

Nintendo needs to buy the IP already and put Sonic and his friends out of their misery. Yuji Naka is probably crying himself to sleep.

Sega definitely goes out of their way to destroy the IP's.

 

[PAULINK]

I like bangarang, but they shouldn't have used bangarang for this.


Regardless, as with any sonic game's announcement, try not to keep my expectations anywhere beyond passable.

 

[Cheddahz]

What the hell did I just watch.....and the trailer had god damn dubstep in it too

 

[Zeyphersan]

Skrillex? In my Sonic? It's more likely than you think.

 

[Son Of D]

Outsourcing that Nintendo contract while Sonic Team works on next gen.

Sounds about right. Sonic team work on the PS4/X1/Wii U game whilst Sanzaru+BRB work on this.

 

[Coffee Dog]

The character models are eh at the moment. I did like the look of the actual gameplay though. More should be commenting on that I think.

What looked good about it? All I saw was

-More open areas (not conducive to tight level design, especially in a sonic game)
-multiple playable characters and play style (unfocused)
-bigger combat focus

That's all really bad.

 

[Muchi Muchi Pink]

Who're doing the graphics for this game? Cuz the character models look bad, but everything else is good.

I kinda agree.

 

[Tuck]

Sonic Heroes & Clank: Hedgehog's Fortune.

Lol yeah the environment style reminded me immediately of Ratchet and Clank.

 

[V_Ben]

Big Red Button being on this fascinates me. This may be their first actual game.

 

[FourMyle]

We had the same idea. Hahah!

oh jesus those char models are fucking atrocious lol

so this game is completely outsourced huh?

Looks like a bad R&C ripoff + shit new designs + dubstep + outsourced studio = lol

 

[rtcn63]

"You came to the wrong neighborhood mother******"

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

you'll always have the 2d levels in Generations, sonic fans. No one can take those away from you

 

[Exterminieren]

Outsourcing that Nintendo contract while Sonic Team works on next gen.

Doing that with the game that looks to be trying to reboot and redirect the entire franchise (Toys! Merch! A cartoon!) is another thing that would make bafflingly little sense.

 

[Slowdive]

Knuckles looks so bad.
