Can Sonic be redeemed?

Gaming Gauge writes: "With the recent announcement of Sonic Colors for the Wii and the DS combined with the news that Sonic 4 is a 2D platformer it seems that Sega is trying to revitalise the old Hedgehog who has sadly fallen from grace over the last decade. The question is, can he be redeemed?"

Can Activision Milk Various Franchises?

Anything is possible

tunaks15817d ago

yes he can,
the normal levels in Unleashed (the wii version at least, i haven't played the other ones) were pretty fun, just don't F it up with something stupid like the werhog sh!t

sonic adventure 2 battle remake would be great

Tdmd5817d ago (Edited 5817d ago )

Nobody thought it could 'till Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 was released on dreamcast, and boy was it good! They got it right once, and I think they can do it again.

poopface15817d ago

but the Amy and Big levels were really lame I thought. Supersonic was BA in that game tho.

Sonic can definitely be redeemed, IMO sega just need to look at the development in a different way, i say bring back the 2D vibe in HD (i know theres one in the works)but i mean a completely revamped style and maybe integrated with move.

Sonic Game Writers Had ‘Very Little Say’ On Story Scripts

The writing duo behind Sonic games like Sonic Colors and Sonic Lost World reveal they have little creative control over their game scripts.

-Foxtrot848d ago

They need to start letting people take inspiration from the comics, there's a ton of great stuff to take inspiration from.

My beef is why even hire writers if you're just going to control the whole process. I'd be very upset as a writer if someone did that. A job is a job though.

DarXyde846d ago

Performative for optics, I would think.

It's like the US Congress holding a vote to "denounce the evils of socialism." It literally did absolutely nothing about anything and was a complete waste of everyone's time (and tax dollars—which is its own irony, by the way)

Dumbest thing in the world, but if you hire writers, it looks like you made a serious effort to make something great.

Do you remember when the original Suicide Squad movie was coming out? How much did we hear about Killer Croc's actor watching cannibal videos to get into character? Or even the "incredible lengths" Jared Leto went through to personify Joker on and off set?

It looks better when people think you're taking it seriously.

Pretty much confirmed that SEGA controls everything about sonic no derivations fr

Profchaos846d ago

Nothing new sonic forces was meant to be far darker then sega got cold feet and they did the same old power of friendship ending

Sonic Colors on Nintendo DS - The Sister Release Also Worthy of a Remaster

The Wii release of 2010's Sonic Colors received a remake for modern consoles, but what about the Nintendo DS sister title?

ZeekQuattro1012d ago

Back in the day you would get cases every now and then where the handheld version of a game was better. Chrono Trigger DS comes to mind. Not only did it have the cut-scenes from the PS1 release it also had new content that tied into Chrono Cross.
