yes yes I know. another sonic thread.

[gunbladejoe]

but this one is about if they made a sonic game where you ONLY play as sonic and they put you in a expansive world where you can go ANYWHERE.

would anyone here play that sonic game?

I dunno. I prolly would.

:EDIT: SANBOX SONIC GAME NOUGH SAID!

 

[gibboss28]

No.

 

[NeutralDrow]

Isn't that basically Sonic Unleashed?

 

[gunbladejoe]

No.

haha thought so.

 

[Mad Maniac with axe-firing chainsaw]

Eh... I'd give it a try?

 

[gunbladejoe]

Isn't that basically Sonic Unleashed?

ugh...I dunno how to explain it. feh forget it I'mma go eat dinner.

 

[The Brian J]

I wouldn't.

The whole POINT behind Sonic's suckage lately is that a lot of people, including me, don't WANT Sonic in a huge expansive world! We want him in colorful and unique 2D levels that you can't admire because you're moving way too fast.

I don't want to explore as Sonic. I want to Goes Fast.

 

[gbemery]

Sonic should be taken out back and shot

 

[Ibanez887]

Ever since full 3D was made possible, Sonic was basically dead
The past few years were pretty much just trying to milk the non-existent drops of money from Sonic's decaying corpse

 

[Axle_Bullitt_19]

Well I just don't understand why they think the game has to be a 3-D free roamer. They should go back to the 2-D side scroller that made Sonic what it was. Until then there will never be another good Sonic game.

 

[Del-Toro]

Sonic Adventure 2 was the last hurrah for Sonic and after that it died to the point that it was beyond salvation.

IF!!!!! they remade the old ones oor similar ones with the 2D sega gameplay i'll consider it

... but a sandbox sonic game may have potential

PONDER THIS!!!!!

an open sandbox sonic game where you're so fast you can run up buildings do that buzzsaw thing to ariel enemies from enemy to enemy and now you're higher than u can go in that superman game .. if you're sonic you have to find som slope or building to slow ur decent or u'll die .. if ur shadow u can chaos control back down .. tails n knuckles self explanatory

... kinda like prototype

You should really get a job at Sega.

 

[Internet Kraken]

For such a terrible part of the gaming industry, you guys sure do love to talk about Sonic.

 

[Triforceformer]

Why does everyone here not like Sonic Unleashed? Is it because Yahtzee said he despised the Wii version? I personally enjoy the 360 version including the Werehog, but open world/sandbox style stuff would be retarded for normal sonic, just look at Sonic 06.

 

[Meado]

I wouldn't want a whole world to explore. Make a dozen zones, each about the size of the cities in Assassin's Creed, and I'm happy.

EDIT: You know what pissed me off most about Unleashed? They wanted brawling sections, so they came up with a nonsensical Deus Ex Machina to turn him into a werehog, seemingly missing the simple option of letting you control Knuckles.

 

[MusicalFreedom]

I have it on good authority that the next Elder Scrolls game will be set in Mobius. you get to level up your favourite sonic character in a complex rpg system: speed and jump. collect the seven chaos emeralds and purge the n'wah from the land. thwart robotnik's plans to Get That Hedgehog whilst looting dungeons in the green hills

goty 2012

If you "know" yes another sonic thread then why the smeg did you create this thread? Mental incapacity? Maybe you have Down's Syndrome, if so, sorry bro...

Thank you for that vital contribution to the thread.

knew i'd be insulted for that idea T_T ... probably shouldn't mention i was gonna edit and say they should make it online with custom chars and gametypes like around the world in 80 seconds, rat race, deathmatch, chaos emerald hunt and rampage .........

No. Platforming has always been fairly awkward in a 3D world. The more "open" the world is, the more awkward it becomes.

This problem is only more pronounced in Sonic games, for 2 reasons. First, Sonic is as about as pure a platformer as you can get. In classic Sonic games, jumping isn't just the core gameplay mechanic, it's the only gameplay mechanic. So, a 3D Sonic is either a dull and awkward affair because the jumping is so awkward, or it is a dull and awkward affair because the designers added some lame mechanic like a gun or (*shudder*) Were-Hedgehog. Second, because Sonic moves so fast, it's almost impossible to build a 3D game large enough for Sonic to consistently run through. So, the game is broken up with lame interludes like towns or (*shudder* again) Were-Hedgehog segments.

Sonic was made for 2D platforming. What I'd like to see is a new Sonic game in HD made in the classic 2D Sonic style.
