Sonic 4 & New Vegas

[Hellfire Dragon]

An combo for a topic but saves creating 2
Sonic 4:
So looks like SEGA dicided to go make Sonic 4, as 2D platformer picking up where sonic 3 left off back in 1994. So it isn't going to be a shitty 3D title You can watch the video here.

New Vegas:

Bethesda Softwork's has released a trailer for Fallout: New Vegas. It doesn't show much but you do see a faraway view of New Vegas, shining with light unlike most of the wasteland. At the end of the video we see a person in a brown coat and some sort of mask and helmet, who turns their head towards the screen and we here the words 'War... war never changes.' Not much of a trailer but the game is set for release Fall 2010.

So what's everyone think?

Both sound awesome, but I don't agree about the 3d sonics being shitty. The Sonic Adventure ones where pretty awesome, actually. I loved Sonic Adventure 2 Battle for the game cube.

I loved Sonic Adventure 2 Battle for the game cube.

Agree.  People complain when games are too different (sonic series), and when games are too similar (zelda series).  Fuck those people.

I was refering more to Sonic Unleashed, Sonic Heroes (alright but not great) and Shadow the Hedgehog (again alright but not great) Personally, I never played Sonic Adventure. Sonic Unleashed, I didn't really like at all though Still can't wait to see what this new turns out like.

Sonic Adventure 2 Battle is one of my favorite games of all time. It's up there with titles like Majora's Mask and Super Smash Brothers. But wow, why are all the companies going back to 2D side scrolling? It looks cool, but it's kind of annoying that we're covering old ground again instead of trying new stuff. (not that there aren't any original games being made, but the series of games, like sonic, mario, and zelda, seem to rehash old ground a lot)

If you go to http://www.sonicthehedgehog4.com there's a box on the right that says 'Coming Summer 2010 Playstation Network, Xbox Live Arcade, WiiWare and ???' Wonder what that could be

Who knows why but personally I don't really mind.

Why did you make one topic for two games? As far as I know, they're unrelated.

[legacyblade]

I don't really mind the lack of originality too much. Personally, I'd love to see another game that's just like Majora's Mask or Sonic Adventure 2 Battle. But I also kind of want to see something NEW from the franchises I love (though when they do that, they run the risk of going too far from what made the series great). It's a balancing act between making it too different and too similar (for too similar, just look at the bomberman series. If you've played any bomberman since the first one on gamecube, it's exactly the same game as it's forebearers.)

...bomberman predates the NES
you don't know what you're talking about.

[legacyblade]

Once bomberman hit gamecube though, every sequal they made was a cookie cutter of the previous one. I don't see how it having a version older than the NES has anything to do with the point I made.

Of course they are, it's called laziness

Have to agree with that.

since the first one on gamecube

This is factually incorrect.

[legacyblade]

I'm not saying the first bomberman was ON game cube. I was refering to the first one RELEASED on the game cube (sort of like Ocorina of time was the first zelda on the n64). I know it's been out forever, I'm just saying since the first gamecube bomberman came out, they haven't made anything really original.

[Diokatsu]

I'm don't care what you were trying to say, that's what it sounded like when I read it and it's easy to confuse. The grammar allows for both interpretations.

[legacyblade]

Ok. I was just confused by his statement. This is one of those times when I wish I used a language other than english It's confusing at times,

Go to the media section and tell me what you think.. .. ..

P.S.
Watch the movie on the link's main page first.. .. ..

[legacyblade]

The gameplay looks a lot like the gameplay seen in sonic adventure 2 battle. I'm excited for this, what system is it for?

[Calintz]

PS3.. .. ..
The next gen systems.

[legacyblade]

I don't have money for a PS3

[Calintz]

I'm sorry.. .. ..

Sonic 4 seems all confusing to me. I liked it as Project: Needlemouse. XD
