Honestly, I think SEGA is starting to lose their minds: http://kotaku.com/5027020/new-sonic-wii-game-revealed-brings-much-needed-swordplay-to-series
First they turn Sonic in a werehog and now a knight? What's next? G.I.Sonic?

You know I often lay awake at knight (geddit?) thinking, what Sonic needs is a game where he's swinging a sword, the next in the Sonic series is 'Sonic: The Office Assistant'.
And has a Joker-ish enemy? XD
Damn I was hoping it was a Sonic/Code Geass crossover... This is much more upsetting. :(
...Wait so is this what that stupid sword picture I posted back in the Nintendo's big game thread was?

Sega, please make a 2-D Sonic side-scroller in glorious high definition for PSN/XBLA. Sonic doesn't need a sword, or any other object for that matter.
The hell? SEGA what are you playing at I thought Sonic was not allowed to use weapons (except in SSBB). Still as with all the stupid ideas SEGA comes up with these days I'll wait until I get my hands on the game itself, who knows it might be fun.
Does anyone know whos making it? Is it Sonic Team or another developer?
EDIT maybe its a WiiWare game. Doubt it but its where lots of develpoers can make strange stuff and put it up there for sale.

Exactly! By the way ... does SEGA have any decent hack and slash game? Because it's what this game will probably be.

I was thinking the same. And now I'm picturing Sonic riding a dragon-like creature and hunting skeleton-bots or... skadniks (?), because there must be some kind of Eggman reference in the game. Or maybe it will be like Secret Rings and Sonic will be alone fighting another enemy (Black Knight?).
And, no, he won't take any journey against chao, not even the crazy ones, Shadid. -_-

You know, lets look at this from another direction.
If Unleashed is cool, maybe this will work too. Remember the Wii games so far have been alright. Then again, someone is bound to make a "Heavy Metal Hog" joke some time so il just comment and move on. :)
"Your arms off!"
"No it isn't"
"Yes it is! its clean off!"
And so on ;)
This and Sonic Unleashed both seem to me extremely desparate, if you ask me.
But at least Unleashed looks good.

What the hell? Sonic with a sword? Is he now that weak that he needs a sword to kill thing? Well, since this is a whole new thing for Sonic and since Unleashed looks alright so far I'll be optimistic for now and say it could be cool.

Thats right, thats what I'm thinking no matter how stupid the idae is it might be fun when it comes out. The same can be said for Metroid Prime when that first came out, every one was like "oh no they turned it into a FPS" but when it came out it was the best thing on the GameCube. The same could be said for this it could be awesome when it comes out so I'm gonna remain open minded for this one.

Clearly they're making this to take advantage of the Wii Motion Plus add-on, just like in the demo play on E3 with Reggie and the Woman With The Annoying Voice (WWTAV, for short, or just Annoying, like her friends call her). It may turn out alright, but it's just WRONG!
What the hell? :blink:
It'll probably use the new Wii motion sensing thing...accurate sword fights?
But...What the hell? :blink:
Why not give him an Assault Rifle, Shield system and annoying AI, get it over with ne?

One problem I have with this, other than the stupid gimmick, is that you can't get Wii demos, so unlike World Adventure I can't just download a demo to see if I like it or not. Though I have been meaning to renew my account on Lovefilm.

Seriously... those guys at Sega should consider making remakes of the first 3 sonic games. That would be more entertaining than swinging a sword around to beat robotnik. I'm not even asking for a Sonic 5 on the Wii Ware. =(

That would be awesome if SEGA did a WiiWare game, if Capcom can do it with MegaMan then why cant SEGA do it with Sonic?

Because selling a crappy full priced retail game will probably sell more than a WiiWare game, and earn more profit.

I read somewhere that this game is part of the storybook sonic games, I mean, It's a sequel to SATSR. This time, Sonic is traveling to the world of King Arthur. I just hope that sonic isn't holding the excalibur... King Arthur would get really mad XD

I've seen them before, the Unreal one is ace and what I was reffering to but the GTA one looks crappy.
I don't think this'll be too bad, actually. So long as the gameplay stays in the fashion of SatSR, it can't be too bad, especially as it's meant to be a sequel.
Still, why wasn't this shown at E3?

Correct if I'm wrong, or I missed something, but didn't Sonic say that he would never wield a weapon of any sorts to Shadow once? Hmmm...
I've seen this movie before. Y'know, a great looking Sonic game that turns out lousy? Maybe Sega should give in to the fans and make a "SonicxKnuckles Play House" game.

22-07-2008, 14:52

You should remember that in this "story-arc" (if I may call it so) Sonic is transported to other dimensions like "The One Thousand And One Nights" and in this one he'll be transported to King Arthur's dimension. It's quite normal if things change a bit since sonic games are just like Zelda's: They are not a sequence neither one story, simply different versions of the same story.
By the way, news from nintendo power:
King Arthur was posessed by "something" unidentified and Sonic is summoned by a sorcerer named Merlina. (A female version of Merlin much probably -_-)
By shaking the Wiimote Sonic will swing the Calibur, the sword that is on the Nintendo Power cover.
In this game you'll be using the Wii Remote + Nunchuk. The control scheme will be pretty much like "The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess" one.
By helping town people you will get points. Sonic will get popular as you get more points.
It will be possible to trade itens via Nintendo Wi-fi Connection.
Every level will have secrets and treasures.
Other characters will be playable during the game. (Tails? Please? :biggrin:)
There will be also a multiplayer mode.

Now that you think of it, its a good idea in "Theory". Sonic and the Secret Rings got pretty decent scores and it was a good idea(Well for kids). They just have to improve the flaws from the first game. Secret Rings had a few flaws that need MUCH improving or was pointless (Like the walking backwards) Atleast now Sonic is controlled by the control stick

More 2D action would be a improvement. SatSR had too much 3D parts wich reminded me of Sonic Adventure 2 :(

Like Sonic Unleashed I'll wait for a decent gameplay video before beating this game down.
Well to me it looks like some kind of crazy fan game and well I’m not really sure what to make of it although I do like the fact that Sonic can be played with the Nunchuck control stick and that Jun Senoue is on board for the music but apart from that its Secret Rings all over again but with added swordplay, which is no bad thing as I enjoyed Secret Rings.
It looks ok for a Wii game but as always looks are not everything it’s the gameplay that counts so I’ll wait until I’ve played the game itself, it might turn out to be a hidden gem. You never know.

A Sonic game similar to Crash 3 would be cool, with a warp room and time travel and the only thing you have to collect is a crystal in the level whilst you blast through it XD.

Alright, so I have this issue of Nintendo Power. It actually doesn't sound bad AT ALL. The sword does not take the speed away from the game. The more complex duels are with bosses. King Arthur (The Black Knight) is the main villain, and they're taking Sonic's past games into consideration. They don't want to mess this up, so don't judge a game by its Magazine cover. XD
Oh and it has 2D side scrolling elements in it.

True, its a good idea in that story book series their doing but it makes you wonder. But it is off to criticize it before anything.But secret of the Rings was pretty decent hopefully they fix everything in this game.So no worries kind of
And having 2d gameplay in a Sonic game doesn't mean its going to be good or worth getting.

Mot likley all swords, i think the multi-player sounds a bit fun.
Everyone would most likely have a weapon, but I guess it doesn't have to be a sword. There are a bunch of medival weapons out there. If Knuckles is in there he should have an axe. A big one!
Does look promising from that article. Not sure I like the idea of King Arthur being the main villain though, it's a bit of an odd decision to make.
Still, I'll buy it ^_^

Knuckles will use two swords. I still want him to play as a berserker. Slower gameplay, cool sword combos, stuff like that.:P
Wonder if it'll be the same as Secret Rings where Sonic's the one that gets transported to the story world and his friends are all characters from it? Like say Tails and Knuckles might be Knights of the Roundtable.

It's called "Ring Table" according to The Sonic Stadium.
I hope this Merlina character is a good sidekick as Shahra was in Secret Rings, I thought she was great.

Sonic on 360 and PS3 was basically a 3rd Sonic Adventure, and that was one of the worst games I've ever played. I think If they were to make a new Sonic Adventure it would probably be really bad, so hopefully they won't. At least until they learn how to make good 3D Sonic games.

It does seem nice for SEGA to do this sort of thing its like there saying "we do care about the fanbase and just to prove it send in your stuff and we will stick it in the game cus we love you really and we are sorry for the past f**k ups".
But thinking about it if the game suck the fans can blame themselves since thay had some part in making the game.

Really? I'm pretty sure their current fanbase are people who didn't care about how much they screwed the series up, not people who really loved the original 3. Also the majority of Sonic fanart is really creepy, this doesn't seem like the best idea.

Crush 40 has returned after a long time, I like this song a lot.
Anyway, there isn´t too much in the video. Only footage of the screenshots we saw before.
I´ll keep an eye in Unleashed. Still time stays for 2009. =)
yeah um, it's a bit weird this attempt to change the gamestyle, but what about the WiiMotionPlus, maybe it's a high speed game where you run with the nunchuck and slash with the wiimote, that would be pretty impressive.

I've always been a sega fan but because of the poor effort of these guys, sega's practically a byword for bull***t these days. The games still sell decent enough so they don't seem to put any effort in. And I especially don't see how this is gonna be good when the most loathed part of unleashed was the combat and here's a game that seems to be entirely based on that principle, like they thought for some strange reason "everyones gonna love the werehog parts in unleashed , lets just base a whole game on simplistic, waggle the remote like a vagina combat, it'll be great"
Tch c**ts
EDIT: I feel better now i've got that little rant out.
Dr Shaneman
02-12-2008, 12:40
They sell because kids see Sonic on the cover and start fapping straight away. Then Sega sees the sales were good and think they done a good job.
I think the reason Sonic Team keep adding stupid things to Sonic Games (werehog, sword etc) is because they must think that running through levels wont give players there moneys worth so they add things like this to justify a £40 price tag. What I think Sonic Team should do is make a game with just running through the levels with no silly gimmicks and release it as a £20 game, I think if they released a Sonic game at that price then it would sell more copies.
Anyway on Black Knight from what I’ve seen it looks like Sonic Unleashed without the werehog and with a sword, to many it sounds like a crap idea but I still wanna check it out when it comes out. Besides Sonic Vs Knuckles with swords sounds awesome.

I leave you with this interview from Sonic Stadium.
I asked one of the developers at TGS, you know I was like, come on everybody just wants Sonic running, like whats up with the werehog? And he was like, well, heres the deal… he [Sonic] runs at this miles per hour, kilometers per hour, and he laid out all of the statistics on how fast this hedgehog goes, and he was like In order to make a game where Sonic is running and everybody enjoys the whole thing we’d have to design this many miles of level, and it was some ungodly number. And he’s like and that would be like maybe a three hour game and I was like wow, well that kinda stinks and he’s like yeah, so we gotta do this other stuff.
Sonic Stadiums answer was "Total bulls**t, right?" as is mine too.

I can actually sort of see the logic behind that I suppose, but Sonic's stages on Unleashed are poorly designed anyway :/ so they've hardly a right to complain.
They should give sonic over to a totally different developer and see what they do with it....better than give Sonic Team another go.

A dream come true.... but no blaze XD
And thats not true, Sonic can beat any character. You just have to know how to use him.
Yeah i thought Sonic was good in SSBB.
And your right about Dimps I think they should take care of Sonic more these days, the work they did on the Rush series was great.
i like more this sonic, whit the sword is really awesome... but i think that the game should be a good game, not only for the graphics, but the gameplay is really important, My dreams is a remake of Sonic the hedgehog for Xbox360...

Maybe not, this game's sword gameplay may be a good comeback for Sonic.
Official Nintendo Magazine here in the UK previewed it and said the swordplay was ok they also said that it may not be the best Sonic game ever but it should be a step up from Secret Rings.

Oh, that's right, you're not a fan of this kind of music in the first place.-_-
At any rate, It look like I will be getting this game around the same time I get a chance to get the Wii version of Unleashed. (Heh, that's a while from now.)

Funnily enough I'll probably be getting this when I get the Wii version of Unleashed.
Also the sigh was directed at the gameplay, the song I could care less about since I can just skip it... Unless they make the same bad decision they made with Secret Rings.
I think it looks pretty cool as long as the gamplay is solid i could not give a shit about the sword.
Another new trailer the Western trailer is fairly similar But it has no words to accompany the song and has a Sonic wearing golden armour at the end.

to me its going to be an ehh game, its nice that they got rid of the annoying controls of the previous game,and like what someone else said if it plays good i wont care about the sword. This storybook series i think is a good idea for aiming toward a younger audience to bring them into the series and a better idea than attempting to put sonic in party games that usually dont work out.

Secret Rings did have crappy controls for me, homing attack I never got to work once. Which is why I never completed the game.
OK Sonic and a mage teaming up is cool (though she is a tad fugly)
The Black Knight himself looks awesome.
Sonic next-gen: Sonic goes on vacation and runs away with a princess???
Sonic And The secret rings: Sonic runs around in a book? whats next? he meets cinderella???
Sonic Unleashed: Sonic gets zapped, earth broke and he crashes on a rat?
Sonic and the black knight: Looks like Zelda Twilight Princess in 4x Speed.

Looks like Sega are desperate. i bet Sonic and the Golden Icecream is next.

I feel this just might be the true revival the Sonic Series needs in terms of platforming(despite how absurd it is thinking of Sonic running around with a sword) and give modern-day gamers that feeling we had back when Sonic 2 and 3 were still relatively new. I'm not too fond of the idea of mini-games but I do hope that this can fix the whole 3d sonic genre. Maybe we can also get a memorable for the radio broadcast as well.

I agree, though. No gameplay unless you consider sitting there with the controller in your hand looking at the screen without pushing any button playing. I'm kind of concerned about the gameplay mechanics. Jumping with the nunchuk button, waggling the remote around like a sword... Don't know if that's going to work.
I find it funny that some people expect this to be Sonic's saviour :biggrin: yeah...that'll be the day.

What they let me play was the training level. it controlled very well, if you swang the mote once, sonic could do a quick slice while still running. one mid air and it attacked mid air. the engine is very similar to secret rings, only its not on rail, and sonic has a sword. i couldnt hear any of the music over the huge crowd watching, but there are still rings and such. overall, i cant wait to play the full game. so yes, IT WILL BE GOOD.

And sometimes it's better that way. I've read my share of Wii reviews where games are "bashed" simply because they are Wii games. Anyway to see if a game is good, play it. It all comes down to gameplay. The only thing previews or reviews can do is "calibrate" your "want rate".
^ Very true. I only use reviews as a guideline, and I tend to buy games I want anyway even if they are critically panned, Unleashed being a prime example.
It just lowers my expectations, so I can enjoy the game at face value, rather than get hyped for a steaming pile of turd.

Sonic and the Secret Rings was pretty good, and that was in 3D.

Maybe, but it worked accuratly and responsivly which is more than I can say for Secret Rings which rarely let me jump or slow down, and just snapped Sonic to a different path rather than any proper moving.
I thought the Mari on a ball was good i thought it worked well. As for SATSR i liked the controls sure they were a bit hit & miss but I liked using it.

Back on topic while I'm still not to sure about the sword the comments from many people who played it have made me feel more positive towards it but still i want to play it so i can make my own mind up about it. from what I've seen it looks ok.
You seem to be the only one so far :P
I actually agree with Zack, the Wii is too ahead of its time. Motion controlls are a decent idea but implimented very poorly, when they charge you for a little accuracy booster than should have been included anyway..

Secret Rigns was balls, if you can't stop moving and the homing attack never worked then...
The controls for SatSR is very hard and I can barely homing attack any enemies! Hope Black knigth has a better control!

its very frustrating to see You guys bash the game. you should at least give the game a chance. I know its gonna be good. IVE PLAYED IT. trust me, the sword doesnt cut away from the speed element of the game! it takes up the same time as doing a homing attack.

Loving that music and the art style used on the cutscene.
Oh and "It's just a flesh wound" blah blah blah obvious Monty Python reference.
I like the music on the game as well as the art style. it does look pretty cool and the small clip of Sonic vs Shadow looks great, Shadow looks badass.

Oh yeah, forgot his alias in the game. It's "Sir Lancelot".
Fitting, huh? XD

No more one worded posts please.
Anyway, the art looks good and all but a few things bother me.
1.Silver
2. Why all this story book stuff? You could do all that in Sonic's normal world.

Sonic in Soul Calibur - it's coming. maybe; or the Legend of Knuckles. What will they rip off next. First link goes Werewolf then Sega has Sonic do it. Bah

Cause Sonic's normal world went to shit sometime after Sonic 3.
I like this story book stuff idea for a game, maybe not a Sonic game, but good for a game.

That's just a placeholder till they figure out which one he'll be. Unless it's Sir Not Appearing In This Game.
Silver still looks like a twat. Don't even know why he's in it.

Maybe because they want the 3 rivals together or they just put him there to ruin SBK. XD

Spoiler. Found a video with new cutscenes and a little bit of other gameplay.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRqpZw8y7w4&feature=related
By the looks of it Knuckles,Blaze,and Shadow is working for the black knight and joins Sonic near the end of the game.
It Also shows how you get respect by those weird civilians.
Last is clips on how the multiplayer works, looks like they got rid of the annoying party games for just random sword games. I didn't see Silver so im guessing hes unlockable for only Multiplayer like in Secret of the Rings.
(Lol Chilidogs xD)

Makes sense since the Black Knight is King Arthur according to Wikipedia.
This doesn't look so bad actually, but then it might just be because of that totally rockin' music.
Though it looks like Amy is going to be in this game far too much.

:) Yup looks like Amy will be in the game alot but who knows maybe just in a few storybook cutscenes helping Sonic or giving him advice.(Hopefully >.>) Kinda weird that the sword has a little face...
Music always rocks in every Sonic game :) Yup looks like Amy will be in the game alot but who knows maybe just in a few storybook cutscenes helping Sonic or giving him advice. Kinda weird that the sword has a little face...
Yea, no that's still too long.
I noticed the Excalibob or whatever it's called was one of those weird ass talking swords from Tales of Destiny aswell.

You will cry, the chao garden is not anymore something that's interesting - A-life concept is not anymore something that sells.

The Chao Garden was a great way to add replay value once you got all the emblems, etc. It was nice to see your chao evolve and the goodbye option had one of the saddest musics I ever heard. Never quite understood why they removed it.

The goodbye chao made me and many others cry :( *sniff* CHAO DUDE! WHY DID YOU HAVE TO GOOOOOOOOOOO?!

The space used for the Chao Garden is now being taken up by too much "plot" and characters.
It's a shame it's gone since it was pretty much the only reason I played Sonic Adventure 2 more than once.

Nice looking trailer. The music sets the right mood to a swordfight, but aside from Amy's model (I think) there's no new models shown. And I still think Blaze should be a sorceress.
PS- Also does anyone know how many "knights" the game will have?

What do you mean by knights? Characters portraying as knights? If that, i think its only the main ones which are Knuckles,Blaze,Shadow. Plus the black knight.

Yea pretty much, though I dunno if any other Knights will appear not as Sonic characters.

Thanks for the blog comment - have a good read :) I get a good few posts in per week!

No way, there's still plenty of books for Sonic to go to next:
Sonic and the Merry Men
Sonic and the Spice
Sonic and the Half-Blood Prince

Should be Sonic and the Dark Knight. That way, they could cash in on Batman vs Sonic. Batman's alter ego is Robotnik.
Jesus. I should work for "Sonic Team" now...

Robotnik won't be the Black Knight. He was a good guy in Secret Rings after all.
