Sonic RPG!; AWESOME

That's right the Blue Bomber is starring in an RPG! It will be on the DS so you move around with the stylus, with no random battles! (sweet) You can have up to 4 characters in your party at once and can change them in and out at your base. (Tail's workshop)

Spoiler!

They released the names of 7 characters: Sonic, Tails, Amy, Knuckles, Rouge, Shadow, and Big the Cat. (Yes they are giving him a few dozen IQ points.)

End spoiler.

Yeah, I've known that. It's being made by BioWare for the DS, and it's called Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood.

I just found that out yesterday from my Nintendo Power magazine. But still, it looks awesome.

NO. This is BIOWARE, fool. If anyone can make a good Sonic game, it's them.

Also, Sonic's NOT about speed. Sonic is about PLATFORMING, which is what most of his game's genres have been. This is just putting it in a new genre, and seeing as Bioware's making it, I'm quite sure it'll be awesome.

I don't want to argue with you about this, but I will anyway.

1. Why do you think time counts up? So you can see your record.
2. Why do you think Sonic games are commonly speedrun candidates? The answer is obvious.
3. Why do you think Sonic is SO FUCKING FAST. The answer is clear.

Stop deluding yourself--Sonic is all about speed. Even the multiplayer modes are about speed and getting to the exit first. It's all about speed, not fighting, not just platforming. The platforming is a bonus.

Actually, the SPEED is a bonus. Sonic was pretty much designed to be much like Mario... only better. And yeah, that WAS pretty much the entire point of creating him.

I mean, christ, Marble Garden Zone? Carnival Night Zone? Does anyone remember these things?

The only part I liked about Sonic was the casino level. Everything else was kinda generic except the speed, which I couldn't control. Thus, it was basically just another one of those racing games (A genre I dislike). Sure, you aren't racing against anybody, per se, but you are racing to the end as quickly as possible.

Actually they answer the call of speed a little. Just agree that it is cool so I don't have to type the entire article in Nintendo Power about it.

I don't agree it's cool. I never will--Sonic should stay in the genre it's in.

however RPG does looks like quite an interesting venture, even if it is just blatant series-whoring

Anyone who actually liked the level with the barrels of doom is clearly insane. And not the good type of insane, the bad type of insane.

No, because it's CARNIVAL FUCKING NIGHT ZONE. It's general knowledge that the level is FUCKING SATAN. Actually LIKING that level, and none of the other ones, is simply insane.

There are speed points in the game. Do I absolutely have to type the entire article about it JUST so you realise its NOT what you think it is like? Or can I say it is NOT what you think it is like.

I'm just saying, an RPG is a bad idea.

Seriously, this is like turning Guitar Hero or DDR into an RPG. Or turning Maple Story into a rhythm game. They all make no sense. If this works, good, but I'm skeptical.

*Cough* The wiki says it's turn based. However, it's NOT a bad idea. I mean, hell, the Final Fantasy Sonic thing on Newgrounds is doing pretty damn good, and the battles in that are exactly the same every time you do it... This will be a full fledged game. ANd it's made by BioWare. You know, the guys that made Mass Effect?

I never found the chao feature very remarkable. If I wanted to breed things, I'd buy a game where you breed things.

You'd better run before Japan comes and swamps you with torches and pitchforks.

Also clearly your means of judging a game just suck, the Chao were one of the best features of Sonic Adventure, 1 and 2.

And I'm not saying that just because of this. I'm saying that based on knowledge I've gathered from your game preferences. I must say they're astronomically too high if you won't even give Brawl a 10.

I give 10s as often as I'd say that I love something.

It's a very strong rating, just as the aforementioned word is. You have it said to you, and you'd know. Brawl is amazing, but it has flaws anyway. It has tripping, which grows annoying. It's more difficult to combo, so the game takes getting used to. Also, its graphics aren't perfect. If you really want me to nitpick, I could say it's because characters too close to each other will clip and look bad. The game has flaws. They aren't big, but there are flaws. I give it a 9.8, probably. I'd play it quite often, but it will get old. The tripping is a relatively annoying feature, and I was kinda expecting more. Want a full-blown review by me?

Besides, concerning Monster Rancher... I really tried it. I tried it a lot. I gave it too many chances. I just can't see the fun in raising, feeding, and breeding fucking animals. Very little fighting or actual action, and despite it LOOKING like a sandbox kind of game, it really isn't.

Then again, I also hated the original Digimon World. I mean, seriously, you have a hunger meter. In an adventure game. You have ages. You can die. You can breed. What the hell?

Go to the Sonic Chronicles wikipedia page and scroll down to the characters involved.

... I must say, THAT is unexpected.

EDIT: Aw, it's gone now.

Well, it said Amy had a boyfriend. That wasn't Sonic.

Sonic: *Blink* FINALLY! NO MORE ANNOYING PINK THING CRUSHING MY LUNGS AND RIBCAGE TO POWDER! FREEEEEDOOOOOOOM! *Zips about cartwheeling and laughing his head off*

I might actually buy this game.

Only if they let you talk the final boss into killing his/her/itself before you fight.

ROFL.

That'd be awesome.

Sonic: You suck and your life is worth nothing.

Final Boss: ;_; *Kills self* *Then respawns even more powerful than before* Rawr!

Sonic: ... Fuck.

But yes, it has the choices of how to talk to people.

1. Sonic style. Hurry it up, get it over with, come on let's go.
2. In depth. Taking it a bit slower, looking for more details, yadda.
3. Attitude. More of a snarky reply, which I look forward to abusing the hell out of.
