JCvgluvr Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 I guess I'll do the honors of revealing this game to the OCremix board: Look! Sonic has a fricking sword! You wanna know how I feel about this? I've said it before, and I might say it again: HOLY **** ON A **** SANDWICH WITH A SIDE ORDER OF ****!!! Quote
Genjutsu74 Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 pic not working http://www.nintendoeverything.com/?p=2084 This is nuts. Bunch a people thought the 'secret game' was gonna be Kingdom Hearts 3 due to the teaser from the previous issue. This ain't Kingdom Hearts. I'll reserve judgement til we get more info, but Sega kinda speaks for itself these days. I can't help but be reminded of Shadow the Hedgehog. Quote
SlightlyOddGuy Posted July 20, 2008 Posted July 20, 2008 Probably Secret Rings 2. Bizarre, but no more ludicrous than any of the other concepts Sega has put the series through in recent years. Quote
Murmeli Walan Posted July 20, 2008 Posted July 20, 2008 Until the issue comes in my mailbox, I call fake. ...bonus points for using a TAS quote, though... Quote
Linkjing Donuts Posted July 20, 2008 Posted July 20, 2008 this is propbably the first time a game has hit magazines before the internet Quote
JCvgluvr Posted July 20, 2008 Author Posted July 20, 2008 Until the issue comes in my mailbox, I call fake. No. Really. This is the real thing. All of those games really are coming out. It really is Nintendo Power's 20th Anniversary. Heck, I even recognize all of those familiar font styles and everything. There's no reason to doubt this. Quote

Heck, I even recognize all of those familiar font styles and everything.There's no reason to doubt this. We've been there before: Plus, as a jaded Sonic fan, I just can't get my hopes up for the character anymore. @Linkjing: Hey, last month's issue was the first to unveil Mega Man 9, so it's not like this isn't believable or anything.

DarkeSword Posted July 20, 2008 Posted July 20, 2008 It's completely in line with what Sega's doing with Sonic these days; that is to say, it's so fucking ridiculous that it can't possibly be fake. Quote
JCvgluvr Posted July 20, 2008 Author Posted July 20, 2008 I dare any single poster to manufacture a more official looking picture than that one. DARE, I SAY! Official art like that is fricking impossible to make using amateur tools like photoshop. Quote
Antipode Posted July 20, 2008 Posted July 20, 2008 I second that, DS. Also, here's another take debating whether it may be fake. Quote
Bleck Posted July 20, 2008 Posted July 20, 2008 I am sorry but it is very unoften that you just find the cover page for a magazine three weeks before it comes out Quote
SlightlyOddGuy Posted July 20, 2008 Posted July 20, 2008 I see the internet still immediately goes into denial every time a Sonic game is announced. It isn't fake. There's no one within the Sonic community capable of or willing to do that kind of professional render, and no one outside of it gives enough of a damn to bother because Sega is quite capable of coming up with ludicrous concepts on their own. Also, here's another take debating whether it may be fake. They're trying to use jpeg artifacting as evidence of photoshopping. Never mind the absurdity of a Sonic/Fire Emblem crossover. Quote
Murmeli Walan Posted July 20, 2008 Posted July 20, 2008 Really, I'm just tired and I don't want to argue about if this is fake or not. I just hope it's fake because this looks like another retarded "gimmick" to try to bring back the near-dead Sonic franchise. Don't get me wrong, the image looks professional as hell, I just don't want to see it happen. Quote
JCvgluvr Posted July 20, 2008 Author Posted July 20, 2008 Near dead? Don't be ludicrous. Opinions be darned, the Sonic franchise is quite lucrative. Quote
EdgeCrusher Posted July 20, 2008 Posted July 20, 2008 More like quite boring and retarded now. Hasn't been a good game in years. Quote
Elex Synn Posted July 20, 2008 Posted July 20, 2008 More like quite boring and retarded now. Hasn't been a good game in years. Not a fan of the Sonic Rush series on the DS? Granted I can't speak for the second one that came out sense I haven't found it at either of the two nearby Gamestops yet, but the first one was classic enjoyment. Quote
Nekofrog Posted July 20, 2008 Posted July 20, 2008 Not a fan of the Sonic Rush series on the DS? Granted I can't speak for the second one that came out sense I haven't found it at either of the two nearby Gamestops yet, but the first one was classic enjoyment. Can't speak for the OP, but I'm of the opinion that Rush was garbage. Bought it on all the recommendations of "it's just like the best Sonics! Return to form! A+A+A+A+A+A+A+A!" and was bitterly disappointed. Techno pop soundtrack that was just BEYOND bland, bossfights that seemed as if they were thrown in at the very last moment just to HAVE boss fights, a graphical/art style that just reeked of plain-ness, etc. Garbage. Never played the second. Quote
JCvgluvr Posted July 20, 2008 Author Posted July 20, 2008 You really are a cynical person, aren't you Nekofrog? You just seem so negative in every single topic you post in. Merely an observation, I assure you. I'm not so postive myself, you know, so I can't exactly judge anyone. Quote

Xenon Odyssey Posted July 20, 2008 Posted July 20, 2008 I also agree with DarkeSword. I'm glad we're trying to make Sonic not do what he was originally meant to do: run through the damn stage as FAST as possible. A big-ass battle sword? I'll play Zelda if I want to slash shit. Quote
