VIDEO: Is this guy trolling the ‘Sonic’ fan base or simply giving them a voice?

Matt Hawkins Contributing Writer, Video Games

Empty promise after empty promise, stupid gimmick after stupid gimmick, and crap game after crap game, has essentially crushed the souls and spirits of those who just want a game in which they make a blue hedgehog run left to right, and maybe jump on a robot. Is that too much to ask?

When Sonic Generations was announced, I voiced my skepticism right from the get-go, despite assurances that it was indeed going to set the series straight, and indications that it would indeed be the case.

Why? Because at the last minute, there’s ALWAYS something, out of left field. And next thing you know, he has a new best friend that hogs the spotlight, is swapping spit with some 13 year old human girl, or turns into a chicken.

Thankfully, we’re apparently being spared all that nonsense. Yet I still had issues with the demo for the PS3/Xbox 360 due to the pulled back camera, which changes the speed and timing of everything. But of all the screw ups, I guess that’s not as bad as what could have been.

Meanwhile, the 3DS version, due to technical reasons, would not be able to have both old school Sonic, with his old move set and the 2D perspective, and the new school Sonic, with his brand new skills and a behind the camera viewpoint.

Instead, the latter Sonic was axed, which was totally fine! Because the former is all what everyone wanted to being with. But then came the decision to give old Sonic some of new Sonic’s moves. Also his same shoes. Which one person at least is not too happy about (nsfw, btw)…

… Yeah, from this point forward, I’m going to drop the “new school” adjective and just go with Hentai Sonic. Also, the Sonic Advance series for the GBA were actually decent, and I have no idea what he’s talking about when he brings up “butt cheeks clapping together”.
