At least it was better than the Zelda anniversary direct. :v:

Literally my first thought was "let me guess, it's open world" so no surprises there

I hope that is fake, because saying it’s still early in development as of January 2021 would be loving dire for a game of that proposed scale.

Yeah, didn't BotW take like six years to develop? And even then still left a rather empty/sparse world, even though it's still a masterpiece

it owns they tried to make eggman look realistic lol

Tangentially related but lol that the Sonic movie's producers tried defending their original Sonic design by saying they thought people would appreciate a "more realistic" depiction of Sonic

ah yes, what we need is a more realistic supersonic talking hedgehog

Jim Carrey makes a great Eggman because he's an anti-vax republican irl. It's going to be hard to find another actor as delightfully wicked both on- and off-screen.

Anti-vax sure, but a Republican? You sure?

I think we can safely ignore reviews that were pretty clearly written by someone that's never so much looked at a Sonic game

On the off-chance that the third movie involves elements of SA2 I really, really hope they convince him to come back, so we can see Jim Carrey ranting about his genius grandfather

Yeah once you start talking about Robotnik's grandfather wanting to destroy humanity because his daughter died of space AIDS you gotta gently press the brakes and step off on the keep Sonic intentionally goofy intersection

A long time ago, SEGA envisioned a future where there could be Sonic, Shadow and Silver standalone games all next to each other on the shelves

Definitely a relief to know that the franchise only has one-third as many terrible games post-SA2 as it could have

Yeah, I think I remember hearing him saying in another interview that he wants Robotnik to be fat in Sonic 3, so it sounds like he's open to another movie.

He did also say that about the second movie, to be fair

Though he's almost certainly going to be in the third movie

as Gerald Robotnik, because after seeing the movie tonight I am 100% convinced the third movie will be an adaptation of SA2, they literally put "SA-2" on the side of the G.U.N. helicopter outside Mean Bean among numerous other clues that are impossible to ignore

Also I saw it tonight and this movie whips rear end, I may have more thoughts on it tomorrow but right now all I have to say is if you're a fan of the franchise go see it right now, you won't be disappointed

It's everything the first movie should've been imo

SA1 adaptation in the third movie confirmed

Also there’s no way they don’t do Shadow, they fuckin’ showed him in the credits scene, they’d be better off cancelling the third movie than facing the backlash of not including him in the third movie

Hahaha jesus, they couldn’t have ripped BOTW off harder if they tried, even the music is almost the same

I don’t even care if the levels are just remixes of previous games’ levels, the only 3D Sonic games I’ve played were Adventure 1&2 and like half of Heroes so they’ll mostly be new to me anyway

First: Sonic Adventure 2: Battle
Last: uhhh...Sonic Heroes? Or Sonic Advance 2?
Most favorite: SA2:B
Least favorite: Haven't played enough to have a least favorite tbh

I've only ever played the Adventure games and Advance 1 & 2. Just one more reason I'm psyched about Frontiers, I don't have much to compare it to :haw:

Honestly, even if everything y’all are saying is true and it’s a 6-7/10 at best, I haven’t played a 3D Sonic game since finishing SA2 and getting halfway through Heroes, so I’m still pumped to try something new :shobon:

Took about an hour or two for me to get past the weirdness of the open world gameplay, and the controls and physics still have the classic Sonic jank, but by the end of the first island I was sold. Just mentally screaming "holy piiiiiissssssss this fuckin rules" throughout the entire first Titan.

The music fuckin' slaps too, they knocked it out of the park with the soundtrack
