Re: Sonic Discussion - Sonic Boom

The Jazwares board said Fall 2014, but a SEGA rep later said that the board's information was "false". The comment was incredibly vague about what was and wasn't false and was made in response to speculation of a 2015 multiplatform game, so Fall 2014 could still very wlel be the air date, but take it with a grain of salt

HA!

I knew I wasn't the only one you didn't like Knuckles design!
Spoke with some other 'fans' who claimed he needed to look buffer so him having more strength than Sonic would be more 'believable'

Seriously 'believable ' in the sonic franchise? Where bees can carry crocodiles and chameleons and blue hedgehogs run at the speed of sound?

They even claimed Knuckles looked like a sonic clone with different hair before the redesign and it makes it easy for the kiddies to distinguish between the now.
Don't know what they were smoking...

sonic is BLUE and knuckles is RED

if they were all the same color they'd be really similar though.

they do have a point, indeed, that now they're less samey, but the designers just didn't really execute them that well...........

at least with knuckles. The rest are pretty much fine for me.

You gotta be on that good shit to ever have trouble telling Knuckles and Sonic apart. Color Knuckles blue and give him Sonic's hair and it still wouldn't look like Sonic.

I just have to sit back and laugh sometimes. Knuckles is where you draw the line, despite the fact that Sonic's legs are probably ten times as powerful as Knuckles's arms, despite the fact that Sonic's body is capable of surviving speeds that should by all means incinerate him. Hell, Tails's ass is a functioning helicopter. Why not buff Sonic's legs up to twice the size of the rest of him while they're at it? Hell, that would probably make up for the size difference between Knuckles and Sonic, since somebody clearly skipped leg day at the gym.
