Sonic Boom (Wii U) announced.

Post by RyaNtheSlayA »

Or leaked. Or something. It popped up on a French website recently.

Edit: Official trailer link in 1080p. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0a7-1w ... e=youtu.be
Being developed by BigRedButton , which is comprised of ex-Naughty Dog and Infinity Ward guys. Really interesting.

First thought: Very excited. This game looks like a lot of effort has been put into it.

Second thought: What the heck is wrong with Knuckles? He looks really derpy.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

Seems Knuckles got the Chris Redfield treatment.

Looks alot like Sonic Adventure 2. 4 playable characters, with different maps for each.

Apparently it's based on a new animated series coming out:

Quite the art style change... I'm surprised Sega is giving them so much freedom.

I guess they figure they can't fuck it up worse than it already is.

I'm not interested in new Sonic installments anymore, but it might be the kind of shakeup that the franchise needs.
