I disagree we like the Sonic X voices better, we like Eggman's voice to :nono:

I have got Sonic Colours for a week now and the voice actors aren't bad but sometimes the voice and the talking gets a little dum.
For excample:
"Tails, you just missed the BBBE! Best Boss Battle Ever!" WTF?
"I will just stick to aliens if it's ok with everybody." Since when does Sonic talk to the screen?
What happened to the cool Sounds Sonic used to have when the 4Kids voice actors were there.
"Sounds like an invetaition to a party!", "It's time to crack that Eggman wide open!" or "You goto catch me first!".
Sonic used to sound so cool and awsome. Now it's like his talking to small children. I know it's based on kids but even so, I expected him to sound a little bit cooler.

That's called "Breaking the 4th Wall". Since Colours's plot is directed to a younger audience, it had to have one.

As for Craig Smith's voice, it's not that bad, although it's noticable that Sonic's a bit more cocky now. As for the quotes you mentioned, that's due to the script given to him, not the VA himself. And "Baldy Nosehair" was just...no comment.

Yeah, but I haven't seen Sonic "Breaking the 4th wall" in any other games.

But I can live with "Baldy McNosehair" since Sonic calls eggman many things like "Ro-BUT-nik". But Sonic's laughing was kind of cocky when he started to laughe because the wisps call eggman "Baldy McNosehair".

No offense, but any Sonic fan knows those two lines are from Sonic Heroes which starred the Adventure cast, not the 4kids VAs.

None taken.
Oh yeah, I forgot. But yeah even the first voice actor sounded cool!
My point is that he sounds a little too childish in Sonic Colours.
Wait, hey shadowphantom, if I am not wrong, you have Sonic Free Riders. How is he in that game?

Isn't Sonic supposed to sound cocky? Isn't that supposed to be the whole point? He's the dude with 'tude.

Exactly. That's why I'm okay with Craig Smith's voice in Colours.

Besides, he voiced Goddamn CHRIS REDFIELD. (And Ezio too.)

He sounds a bit different in Free Riders. Slightly more high-pitched. Perhaps he was trying to sound like Griffith? Either way I like his Free Riders voice a little more than his Colors voice.

But why don't you hear it for yourself?
