Sonic was the amazing hero- this is sad, np, stop hyping sonic games.

 

[schuelma]

haha

 

[ShockingAlberto]

I would have preferred Force Unleashed 2

 

[Zihark]

heck deblob 2 deserves the cover way more then sonic.

 

[TheFLYINGManga_Ka]

Huh? What the heck is Sonic Colors? :lol

 

[GDGF]

One more month until the big E3 issue I guess.

 

[AceBandage]

Huh? What the heck is Sonic Colors? :lol

New Wii/DS game.
Sounds kind of like Sonic Galaxy.

 

[Jive Turkey]

The Blue Blur returns, and this time there aren't any gimmicks to get in his way.

The cycle begins anew!

De Blob is a welcomed surprise. Forgot they were making a new one.

the fact that its not just called sonic means there's a gimmick.

 

[AceBandage]

the fact that its not just called sonic means there's a gimmick.

Uh, just being called Sonic The Hedgehog doesn't mean there's an absence of gimmicks, either.

 

[Varjet]

the fact that its not just called sonic means there's a gimmick.

*cough*Sonic the Hedgehog 2006*cough*
edit: beaten like an old, blue hedgehog

So it was a Sonic game... what's the gist of it? Adventures type Sonic?

 

[AceBandage]

So it was a Sonic game... what's the gist of it? Adventures type Sonic?

The description says it's a mix of classic 2D gameplay and 3D gameplay.

 

[Y2Kev]

Force Unleashed is actually the name of the next Sonic game


I'll let you guess what it's about

hint: penis

 

[WillyFive]

I'm guessing from the press release it sounded like Sonic Unleashed, but without the warehog.

 

[zigg]

Sounds kind of like Sonic Galaxy.

If only.

wasn't this the teased reveal that people thought was referring to starfox :lol :lol

 

[AceBandage]

Starfox is the next issue, duh.

 

[WillyFive]

World exclusive sci-fi game from a major IP.

Sonic Colors fits.

 

[wrowa]

Sonic's solo space adventure?

Space adventure?

Seriously?

 

[IntelliHeath]

I like the fact that everyone ignored one thing.


8 bit GTA?!

 

[AceBandage]

Sonic's solo space adventure?

Space adventure?

Seriously?

Mario's solo space adventure?

I like the fact that everyone ignored one thing.


8 bit GTA?!

Probably a DSiWare game.

 

[WillyFive]

I like the fact that everyone ignored one thing.


8 bit GTA?!

Probably a Wiiware of DsiWare game. They are probably the only major game news source that covers them.

 

[comedy bomb]

I like the fact that everyone ignored one thing.


8 bit GTA?!

It's at the link. Some WiiWare game, but it's not a GTA game.

 

[_Alkaline_]

Oh god.

Sonic's space adventure?

That's beyond blatant. For shame, SEGA. For shame.

 

[ivysaur12]

Sonic's solo space adventure?

Space adventure?

Seriously?

Yeah.

And no, NP, I believe there ARE gimmicks involved :lol

 

[jj984jj]

OMG are Etrian Odyseey III and Rune Factory 3 confirmed for localization in this issue? In the index EOIII has an English subtitle and RF3 has the Harvest Moon subtitle Natsume still adds to the games.

Also, that's quite a bit of DSiWare.

 

[Danthrax]

DE BLOB 2 YES

wasn't this the teased reveal that people thought was referring to starfox :lol :lol

yes [grumble]

 

[AceBandage]

Oh god.

Sonic's space adventure?

That's beyond blatant. For shame, SEGA. For shame.

If they're going to copy a game, at least it's a good one.

 

[Empty]

If they're going to copy a game, at least it's a good one.

they probably think mario galaxy is so acclaimed and popular because people like space, though. not because of the genius way that EAD tokyo uses that theme to allow incredible variation in level design and brilliant gravity puzzles. so it'll likely be shitty 3d sonic level design IN SPACE.

 

[Boney]

Cool I like Rush and kinda enjoyed Unleashed day levels, but that monkey agh. I don't think I'll be able to stand something like that again.

I also find it hilarious that they have to hype it as in, this game isn't as shitty as the last one!!

 

[zigg]

9.5 for SMG2?

The Gamerankings-watchers are gonna be pissed.

 

[fernoca]

Nice preview..glad I got that 24 issue subscription for $19.95.
Guitar Hero..looks interesting.

Welcome to every Sonic reveal ever...

Would have been tacky to give your own game a 10.

 

[Fantastical]

Why is anyone talking about anything other than de Blob 2?

Can't wait for E3!

EDIT: 2D section for de Blob?

 

[Poyunch]

So does the preview actually show any gameplay images (of either game)?

 

[Boney]

Welcome to every Sonic reveal ever...

Yeah well after 6 or 7 they should come up with something new I guess. Like "this one has an awesome gimmick! You're in space!"

 

[Celine]

What ?

 

[Aeana]

I guess that crappy font is final. (from the index PDF)
Looking forward to the preview to see what other changes they've made to the game, though.

 

[Jive Turkey]

What ?

Jesus Christ there's always one moron who takes things literally.

 

[Hero of Legend]

Click for full-size.

Jeez, how many times now can they claim that Sonic has been REBORN.

 

[Zihark]

What ?

he thinks nintendo owns np 'stead of future

 

[B.K.]

Was Rune Factory 3 any good? I really didn't know what to think about the main character's morphing ability.

 

[Jive Turkey]

Make that two morons.

What game is this?

 

[Aeana]

What game is this?

Dragon Quest 9.

 

[Sohter.Nura]

Oh god.

Sonic's space adventure?

That's beyond blatant. For shame, SEGA. For shame.

Yes. WE ARE FREE! WE ARE FREE! I AM FREEEEEE FROM THE SONIC CYCLE!!!

I know this game is gonna be mega-fail, as usual.
