Thank you sega! Is it just me, or was anyone else tired of sonics hip new attitude after adventure was released? I remember the old sonic with the slight beer belly and green, non-menacing eyes. With the sublted four spikes instead of the razors he has and the triangular red and white shoes instead of these cross-trainers with the buckles he has now.

Anyway, I just saw the cover of sonic heroes

And I am just glad that they're going back to the way he used to look, more like a child, but still awsome at the same time.

What do you guys think?

I think this look is a cross from old to new. Sorta like what he woulda looked like inbetween. :blah

 Gallstaff Dec 9, 2003
I see what you mean but I think that they couldn't help making him look that way because it's in 3d now and you're used to him looking all badass in 3d.

What I missed most in the DC incarnations was his attitude... Sonic was such a fast little badass but in SA1&2 he came out as being a bid too goody goody. And the voice acting....ackkkkkkkk.Is tails turning on 5? However, they seemed to give Knuckles the attitude but his music was hilarious IMO. Cheezy 80's rap style.

It is hard to transition a great 2d series into 3d but Sega managed to do alright... for Sonic stages at least. What the crap was with adventuring around massive levels to find crap?

despite all my bitching, I did enjoy (and own) both Sonic games for DC (not Sonic shuffle though...*shrudders*) I hope Sega refined what was great about the others and put it into this title. I'm skeptical about the 3 person team deal but we'll see how it turns out in less than a month

As for the cover (topic shmopic) I think its nice, though I don't see it selling that great to those casual gamers who buy by the 'coolness' of the cover. And Sonic still looks too skinny, he used to have such a ponch in the Genny days.

But seeing as he's Sega's mascot I think I may be a little too critical at times....

Yeah sonic did have a bit of a tummy way back when and he was shorter, but i'd still say they did a pretty good job. You're right though, in the SA's he was all cocky he was like "I'm sonic and i'm here to fuck you up" but what made him so cool in the gennies was that he was a very modest hero who knew he could kick ass but didn't flaunt it.

too bad the sonic comic is in horrible art style hell instead of old school ownage

okay i'm going to use this as an opportunity to pose a question i'm sure has been asked a million times before and has been bugging me for the past 15 days or so.

WHY THE FUCK DOES TAILS HAVE A FULL FUCKING NAME!? why not just "tails the fox" or something? why is he MILES "FUCKING" PROWER?!

JESUS.

this is true, but I did enjoy the sonic saturday morning series. Not the one where he runs around some weird, deformed mobious, but the one where he's in some sort of rock band or something.

Oh and uh his name is miles because thats his fucking name. Tails is a nick name sonic gave him after he saw that he had 2 tails and could fly.

i actually liked the dark SatAM one, it was my favorite of the sonic cartoons

if i recall correctly the one where hes ina rock band never made it to USA shores, i know it was broadcast to frenchies tho

 aaron Dec 9, 2003
yeah but my question is why is it "sonic the hedgehog," "knuckles the echidna," and not "tails the fucking two-tailed god damn fox"?

"big the cat." not Biggy "the cat" McBiggleson.
