Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

Re: Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

Ugh, just when Sonic games were getting good again, they get him off MS and Sony's systems.

I really hope they still allow PC games, but I doubt it. BTW, I wonder if this means anything for games currently available via digital distribution services.

Re: Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

WTF???? Guess I'm never playing another Sonic console game. :down:

So only exclusive for 3 titles, two of them already named, and one of them bound to have been an exclusive anyway considering it also features Mario.

Re: Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

Sega must be seeing something in the various sales figures that make this worthwhile. Kudos to Nintendo for finally stepping up on something to bolster their system. Not sure if Sonic can sway some console sales their way, but worth a shot. They should have ponied up for Rayman.

It'd be interesting to see if Sonic pops up in some of the Mario titles (Party, Kart, etc.) before the deal is up. Would add something of a fresh spin on otherwise stale franchises.

Re: Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

I know the Sonic and Mario games sold really well, but i'm curious how the other standalone or XBLA/PSN Sonic games sold.

Seems like a weird partnership to make given everyone else is avoiding the Wii U.

Re: Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

Yes that is true...I signed with Nintendo. ;)

Re: Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

I really want a time machine right now so I can go back to elementary school and laugh in the face of all those Genesis fanboys I used to argue with... and tell myself to invest in Facebook and Google when they come out...

Re: Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

This looks fun. It's on my radar.

Re: Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

That actually looks really cool. I'm in.

Re: Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

That looks neat. Though that music playing is going to drive me nuts.

Re: Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

Wow, Nintendo even changed his name to "antspawn." :(

Re: Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

Man, that actually looks pretty sweet.

Re: Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

Which is a horrible name. :(

Re: Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

Imagine how big a story this would have been back in 1993.

Re: Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

It's weird to say this, but Sonic is the only game that makes me regret selling my Wii U.

Re: Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

Someone over on CAG played it at TGS. It was not a favorable review. As usual, it sounds like it's best to take a "wait and see" approach for Sonic.

Then again, its one guy that played one level. :shrug:

Re: Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

I see there being huge demand for uh, that.

Re: Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

Another Nintendo exclusive. That's what they need. The new Sonic game looks fun. New Mario looks fun. Makes me glad I have my Wii U. Will compliment my Xbox One well when I want to play certain exclusives.

Re: Sonic signs with Nintendo
 

Wow, what was once a cheat code now has a monetary value. How fucking lame.

Re: Watch Dogs
 

That article doesn't make sense to me; they say Sonic is 720P and then upscaled to 1080P, which is what the games have been doing on the 360 and PS3 already, and they would be upscaled on the One and PS4 too. Not to mention the obvious factor that any game can run at 1080P and 60 FPS with low resolution textures and weaker graphics and effects. Unless the game is cross platform between the Wii U, One, and PS4, it's meaningless. And even then there's no question the Wii U isn't close to comparable in power.

What a completely stupid article. Probably the dumbest conclusions i've read in this entire console generation, and that's saying something.

And completely irrelevant to this thread, no matter how much you want to advertise the Wii U for some strange reason.

Re: Watch Dogs
 

Looks like DVDTalk cant do 1080 either.

Re: Watch Dogs
 

Actually, I think the reviews matter quite a bit

Edge (4/10)
Eurogamer (4/10)
Joystiq (5/10)
Game Informer (5/10)
Gamespot (5/10)
IGN (5.8/10)
Polygon (6/10)
Nintendo Life (7/10)

Sorry, now back to some Watch Dog delayed talk. I, for one, am extremely disappointed since I was going to pick this up and skip AC4. But if they need some time, it's probably for the better. GTA5 got delayed, and that game turned out to be great (or so I've heard).

Re: Watch Dogs
 

:notrolls:

Re: Watch Dogs
 

That would look better in 1080p @ 60fps.

Re: Watch Dogs
 

:lol:

Re: Watch Dogs
 

And even that wasn't accurate, since it's upscaled... like everything else.

Re: Watch Dogs
 

Which really goes to show how silly people clamoring for 1080p/60fps is since those numbers aren't the end all of good looking games.

Re: Watch Dogs
 

Re: Watch Dogs
 

Haha that was awesome

Re: Watch Dogs
 

Again, those reviews are just saying it's pretty to look at. I'm sure there are tons of games (and movies) that fit that description. But when you actually want to have fun PLAYING a game, it doesn't sound like this one fits the bill.

Re: Watch Dogs
 

LMM, obviously you have a lot of time on your hands to dig out specific sentences on a poorly reviewed game for a console that no more than a handful of people own on this board and never will. Congrats!?

Re: Watch Dogs
 

Well, spin it whichever way you would like, but that doesn't change the metacritic score. But to make things fair, I'll pick out a synopsis from there as well:

But I agree, that's the last thing I'm going to post about that shitty Sonic game in the Watch Dog thread. If you want to continue, we can bump the Sonic thread that you seemed pretty excited about:

EDIT: Thanks mods, bringing some life back in the Sonic thread!
