Sonic Boom’s early designs were “traumatic” for Sonic Team

[Oizen]

Has anyone seen the screenshots of Sonic Boom?

I swear the character models are horrendiously ugly.

I honestly think the early Gamecube games look better than this.

I think Tails design is fine

Sonic's Arm's is blue and yet Amy's arm is still flesh tone. Why? This sort of heresy will never be accepted by a Sonic fan such as myself. And now they make it official that Sonic's arm is blue. Why not make Amy's arm pink as well?

They haven't really changed Tails that much, other than amplifying fact that he's an engineer

That's because he didn't change much. Just throw on some goggles and various bandages and you're good to go.

It's weird when the show counterpart looks better than the game.

[Conely]

if they gave them good eye shaders it would look almost okay

Except they look like they're made out of clay.

Its like their bodies completely ignore the lighting.

Assuming you mean between Knuckles' legs, it's a tail.

[QUOTE=RaptorJGW;44269287]people who grew up with it?[/QUOTE]

I grew up with Sonic 1 & 2 and I have never played a Sonic game since, because who cares?

It just a stupid blue hedgehog running around, if the games suck the franchise deserves to die and that's it.

Stop living in nostalgia.

[QUOTE=Ninja Gnome;44271652]i'd like to see what you're talking about[/QUOTE]

Its in the special edition DVD

they had some weird as shit enemies like some dude that holstered his rifle inside his body that had all these double jointed limbs and alien spiders that came down and ate all the bodies you left behind

[BCell]

Another thing, the new design of Dr Eggman is no longer fat and egg shaped. We ought to call him Dr Robotnik again since the original reason why Sonic call him as Dr Eggman is because he is fat.

But its kinda infuriating.

They HAD a good formula, people genreally like the gameplay Unleashed/Colors/Generations had.

Instead of more of that, they decide to radically change things again.

talking about the fact that it literally looks painted on, look at the texturework on it

[QUOTE=The Baconator;44269208]who cares about this dated franchise just let it die[/QUOTE]

i don't like it therefore it sucks

[Irockz]

[QUOTE=SuperDuperScoot;44271608]Am I the only damn person on these forums that liked both the day AND night stages in Sonic Unleashed?[/QUOTE]

I would've liked the night stages but I had the Wii version
the arms plus wiimote was not a fun combination

[CirclesofJerk]

[QUOTE=Irockz;44279432]I would've liked the night stages but I had the Wii version

Did the wii version have different stages than the other consoles? When I found gameplay of the others I couldn't find the awesometastic day stages from the wii one.

The Wii/PS2 versions had not only completely different stage designs, as well as at least two continents entirely omitted, but a lot of extra content removed as well, basic 'select this to interact with' maps in-place of hub worlds, and three Night levels for every Day level instead of one-for-one (disproportionate though the lengths were in the HD version already). Among many other changes and alterations.
