[Wii] Sonic and the Secret Rings

I'm just waiting, and waiting, to see the thing that kills this game. It'll go out with a fantasticular bang.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

No, that's what it used to be. Nowadays it's all "USE YOUR SUPER SONIC POWERS TO SAVE ALL OF REALITY FROM THE EVIL GOD WHO WILL DESTROY ALL EXISTENCE AND ALSO DIE AND BE REVIVED BY MAGIC PRINCESS TEARS".

Its storyline has entered shitty JRPG territory.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Old Sonic: Robotnik kidnaps animals and makes them into robots. Here comes Sonic the cool 'hog to save the day.

New Sonic: After tons of waffling back and forth through numerous time periods in order to to watch cutscenes and unravel ethereal secrets, Sonic must go super-saiyan to save the world/universe from various cataclysms brought upon by omnipotent end-bosses ripped straight out of shitty, generic JRPGs. Sonic is powered by the seven emeralds of chaos and magical princess tears.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Wait a minute...evil....DARK GENIE?!

This took far longer than I expected it to... was it worth it? Not really, I mean Jesus Christ my drawing skills are usually better than this oh god what's going on

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

SHIT.

Sorry, I was half-asleep when I made it.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Excuse me?

I couldn't hear the soundtrack over the constant ring noise, but from what I did hear it just sounded like bland everyday music with some guy vocalizing.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Once again: GREATEST GAME!!!!

Who's that purple-haired demonic fag? Is that the "dark genie"? Oh god.

This is shaping up to be as stellar as the last game. Chances are the end result will be another super-repetitive shit-on-a-disc title that this time around can't decide whether to ripoff Mario Party or Prince of Persia.

FELIPE NO

Oh come on. Isn't my faithless and constant mocking of Sonic Team understandable at this point?

...Wow, look what Sonic Team has done to us. We seem to begging for them to make a title that's at the very least playable and/or "decent".

Doesn't that depress any of you, at all?

Most amazing jew boots

But it's not being done by Sonic Team, non sonic team sonic games tend to be awesome. Sonic Rush, the latter half of the Sonic Advance games, Sonic R.

Okay, forget "team". Pretend I just said "Sonic". I have no faith in Sonic games anymore.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Silver, Cream and Blaze...

Oh dear, what happened to the 50 or so other characters?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Oh lord, don't acknowledge SuperSonic. He's nothing but a diehard fanboy in denial and will argue everyone's doubts to the death. Just ignore him and leave him on his perpetually sinking ship.

I want Sonic and the Secret Rings to flop just so I can see the reactions of all those calling this game the "last chance for sonic". So when a new Sonic game with new gameplay comes along and has a good trailer, I want to see if those same people come back with "okay THIS is the last chance, it really is".

I don't know, people initially said Sonic 360 looked fun. Time passed and everyone ended up in tears over it. Considering that the game releases in about two weeks, I guess we'll just have to wait and see. There isn't a whole lot to pick apart here, other than I don't know how they'll manage to stretch the game to over 15 hours from the gameplay I've seen. They haven't shown us very much of what they've done...

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Just disliking one or two games in a series of 30 doesn't make you any less a fanboy with his fingers in his ears.

Also, it seems that more characters are able to be unlocked, it's true I read it on the internet.

Yes, I know.

Hooray! It's the best 3D Sonic game yet! And on top of that, it's actually adequate!

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

YOU HEARD SUPERSONIC, EVERYONE. Do NOT play this game until we've heard his incredibly valuable and coveted final input on it!!!! His opinions are the most important of all!!!

FELIPE NO

I'm no longer being sarcastic about Sonic, I'm being so about SuperSonic

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?
