...Still have not tried Sonic and the Secret Rings. I guess I'm not down for the tilt controls. I just wish Nintendo realized not everybody wants to use those darn tilt controls!

SEGA made the game suck, not Nintendo

 

[SiD]

I can vouch for the suck part

wow, all these SatSR haters...can it really be as "hot or miss" as Sonic 2006? or as God-awful as *dare i say it* Sonic Labyrinth?

 

[SmashChu]

I liked Sonic Labyrinth.

I thought S&tSR was a good game though. Maybe not great, but still good.

 

[k!llsw!tch]

Sonic and the Secret Rings looks fun, I gotta rent it or something, I don't understand why people don't like it as much, guess I'll try it out for my self.

if you never say that again, thatd be great

thats what i said. kinda feel slightly the same about Sonic 2006 (well the trying it out for myself part)

 

[k!llsw!tch]

A game seems funner if you don't read the review or focus on every little flaw. Reviews spoil it, and you never know who reviews the game. What if they hate what you like.

very true which is why i hate gamespot. 1. theyre overrated when theyre so inaccurate. and 2, their friggin rating system is usually based on one dooshbags opinion. the critic's score usually deviates from the general publics score by 2 points or more...thats pathetic. but its even more upsetting when a review tells you about something thats not there. i didnt see and slowdown in SA:DX whatsoever, neither the Cube version nor the PC version. either way, i dont think im gonna read reviews anymore, but rather just look at the out of 10 score and if its lower that 4 then i wont consider the game

I'm pretty much not reading a review until I finished a game. Sonic Adventure 2 was great to me, but reviews thought otherwise, I didn't focus on every flaw, instead I enjoyed what I got. I didn't pay 50 dollars for a game to find out later it sucked and not ever play it again. Heck I'm still playing it today. Yea, but lower than a 4 is a rent for me. X-Play is what makes me mad, they are cruel to almost every video game star that isn't Mario or Master Chief. Also I never understand a d*** word they say until they give the final rating.

how credible is 1up?

There's nothing wrong at all with liking Sonic Labyrinth.

 

[k!llsw!tch]

I don't know how the public views them, I heard about the site when I stayed at Wal-Mart to get a Wii. I think they are better than gamespot.

 

[Hydde]

1. they spend $300-500 on a video game console...honestly, i wouldnt be proud of that

I agree with everything you said in this post... but let me remind you that 300 to 500 bugs is what we are already spending on a wii with nunchuks and wii fi conection and Brawl.... X_X

ad without taking in consideration the wii points and all the accesories the wii games have =P

The difference is, for all that stuff, we get something out of that extra money. It's not all just for the console.

lol i was gonna say "well thats what ebay is for but apparently next-gen systems cost more on ebay. but still like Berkus Rhyme With Circus said, eventually microsoft is gonna finally be innovative (lol cant believe i said that) and then crank out accessories that cost more money that theyre actually worth), while the Wii accessories (though expensive and absurdly increasingly in number) will only add to the already low console price

 

[Hydde]

ah ok, i see now....!


About sonic and the secret rings..... i played it on a friend's.... and i will say that the game would have ben just excellent if not for the little detail that i just friggin hate that i cant have full control of sonic.

It simply nerves me the fact that the guy runs alone, and thati cannot turn back and explore the land but i have to go on a pressed course always.


IMO that sucked major balls.

 

[SiD]

It still urks me though that to get a wiimote with a nunchuck, it's $60.

OMG THANK YOU!!! prior to SatSR when everyone was in Sonic heaven thinking that this was gonna be the savior of the Sonic franchise, i personally thought it would seriously take it in the brown eye. and that was ALL because of damm forced movement. Sonic is platformer NOT a rollcoaster. jeez i was wondering if anyone else besides me had a problem with that....dear lord...

It still urks me though that to get a wiimote with a nunchuck, it's $60.

on that note...screw brawl...ill buy my damm Wii 2 years from now and be a total n00b til then. way to save the day there, SiD

 

[SiD]

Here I come to save the day!

Ironically, my avatar is a mouse.

 

[Del Money]

...sigh want a Wii...and despite how terrible some Sonic games are *cough*labyrinth_or_2006*cough* it gives me piece of mind to know i either own it or have played it (spoken like a true fanboy i know). if it means blowing a fraction of my summer internship earnings then im all for it. but no $500 next-gen systems for me unless im getting more that just hardware and cables and just 1 controller

 

[SiD]

So get a $400 360.

 

[Del Money]

So get a $400 360.

but then i wont be able to get SatSR *has a darn good idea whats coming next*

I wouldn't go blowing your internship money on buying a console solely to play a game you already know sucks balls. If I were you, I'd just stick by my PC and hope to God those bas_ards over at SEGA release it for the ol' compy.

 

[SiD]

RDK beat me to it. Well said, mainly the part about it sucking balls.

um...dude, he was talking about Sonic 2006...the game you seem to defend all the time and i sure hope its actually worth it

i know right? i wasnt planning on actually following through on getting a 360. especially since all the Halos will be on PC and GTAs too (even though i dont play GTA much anyway). also heard Gears of War was coming to PC too. but yes id prefer Sonic 2006 to come to PC (and it would be nice for RDK not to be the only one helping to make this possible *points to sig*)

 

[Teben]

I'd say your time is better spent waiting for Sonic Rush Adventure.

Plus, I think you should turn your petition into a "make a GOOD sonic game and also port it to the PC" petition. The game was just horrible, man. I'd be willing to sign that one.

Trust your pals on this one.

 

[RDK]

also heard Gears of War was coming to PC too

Seeing as how they're doing that PC and 360 online game compatibility thing, it would seem that Gears coming to PC would be a possibility.

(and it would be nice for RDK not to be the only one helping to make this possible *points to sig*)

Lol--everyone, sign that thing so he stops bit_hing!

 

[k!llsw!tch]

^^ Gears IS coming to PC it was on E3, I want sonic for PC but my sucky PC can't take it. I would need a new graphics card to hold something like a Sonic game.

 

[SiD]

um...dude, he was talking about Sonic 2006...the game you seem to defend all the time and i sure hope its actually worth it

um...actually dude, if you look at his post, he said it after a quote about you saying something about SatSR.

Owned.

 

[Del Money]

i meant to say "care to spot me $400, ol buddy?"

ok first off, i need a DS too. this friggin sucks im too much of a Sonic PC/console gamer (minus the next-gens since ive kinda deprived right now). 2nd, all the Sonic Advances and Sonic Battle i never bought and cant play now anyway since i sold my GBA. is the DS really worth $149? and plus Sonic 2006 may be awful, but if some Sonic fans like SiD and k!llsw!tch could tolerate it while hating Shadow the Hedgehog, i think ill take my chances since i liked Shadow the Hedgehog (gamplay and storywise minus the repetition/voice-acting/useless vehicles/over-done attempt to swear which were kinda funny)

Lol--everyone, sign that thing so he stops bit_hing!

yes please do

^^ Gears IS coming to PC it was on E3, I want sonic for PC but my sucky PC can't take it. I would need a new graphics card to hold something like a Sonic game.

you only needed a 16mb graphics card to play SA:DX and Heroes for PC, both on which ran fine on my P3 700MHz, 256MB RAM, 16MB ATI Rage 128 graphics card, Dell laptop running windows 98 SE (yes i never let go of old things *ew that sounded gay*). anyways i doubt the next gen Sonic would require anything past 32 MB for vid memory maybe 64 mb actually but thats it i would think

 

[SiD]

I think the DS is actually 129$, and yes its worth it.

 

[Del Money]

I think the DS is actually 129$, and yes its worth it.

ill consider it...but only after the Wii. IMO i figure im not missing much by not playing the newer handheld Sonics. and besides these days no one cares about handhelds anyways

 

[RDK]

You're probably right--after that sickening flop of a handheld called the PSP, and the recently died-down DS user base, I'm losing faith in video game companies' abilities to make handhelds. >_<

 

[Del Money]

i couldnt let this go....

@SiD

SatSR has no chance of being released for the "ol' compy", Sonic 2006 does...and my petition proves it. so yeah he definitely was talking about Sonic 2006 and not SatSR

Owned. lol

 

[SiD]

What are you talking about? The DS has been selling like crazy since it was released, especially since the DS lite.

Look at his post, he directly quoted SatSR, why would he not be talking about it? Petitions prove nothing.

 

[blayde_axel]

Ok, so I watched the ending to Sonic 2006... and I just wanna know one thing... why do they still move like they're having epileptic seizures!? You think they'd fix that after Sonic Heroes.

 

[RDK]

What are you talking about? The DS has been selling like crazy since it was released, especially since the DS lite.

I hate that Nintendo released the chunky, fatboy version of the DS first on purpose, just so everyone would be tempted to switch over to the 'Lite months later.

Nintendo is notorious for doing that (GBA SP, anyone?)

P.S: I like how you two are debating over 1 thing I said, lol.
