I haven't paid attention to the Sonic franchise much since Sonic Heroes came out (don't ask me why I'm here, I don't know), so I'm probably missing something very obvious here. I keep seeing mention of a "time eater" when discussions about Sonic arise between friends and other communities I visit, but I have no idea what they're referring to.

A quick glance around the wiki isn't showing anything, so I may not even have the right franchise. But I figured I'd ask anyways.

Assumed to be the villain in Generations.

The Time Eater is to be main antagonist and final boss for Sonic Generations.

Edit: It came from this list: http://www.gamesradar.com/xbox360/sonic-ge...407104725980040 (may contain spoilers!)

Linking Sonic Retro-discovered content to a Sonic Retro thread by use of external sites :P information spins around right round, true.

You fly at it with Super Sonic(s) and then a Crush 40 song rolls over the credits.

I really hope Time Eater is an Eggman creation not unlike the Nega-Wisp Armor from Sonic Colors. Perhaps this creation went rogue as it was with Neo Metal Sonic and decided to mess with time on its own accord. I'd rather it be that than another mindless monster thing.

Maybe it should be like the Time Eaters from The Langoliers. Then we could be disappointed like every other Sonic game.

We all know it's going to look like a mangy old whores cunt that shoots lightning like most modern final bosses.

Well, 'eater' gives you a very clear image of what it wil be- it'll be magic, or have a big mouth or something, and it will be huge, and probably floats. Betting that Dr Robotnik unleashed it after reading up on it from some manuscripts, and it ends up needing both Sonic's to turn Super to kick it's ass.

So we want to add giant ravenous meatballs to the Sonic series?

Well, weirder things have happened.

We could reinvent Cream as a psychic blind girl and Shadow as an angry businessman with Daddy issues who's desperate to get to Boston, too! Why not.

I'm just disappoint that Eggman is going to look like a tool, again.

Shit needs to stop, it's getting really, really old.

The only way I'd be okay with it is if there's a Final Boss gauntlet at the end where you fight ever major final boss from the series in a row. That would make up for it, but only if they do that. colbert.png
