    Okay, so SEGA is going to announce 2 games, one for 2011 and other to be dated to 2012.

    The 2011 one will be the Sonic Presequel everyone been talking about, set to be released at 2011, right in Sonic's 20th birthday.

    That'll certainly be franchise-changing, in the very essence of the word.

    ...No?

    The animator probably wanted to retain the Sonic 3 & Knuckles 'green-eyed' Super Sonic, but still keep regular Sonic 'modern.'

    You are right there but I'm not on about oxygen but that sonic slows down after kicking towards the emerald near the start, sort of ruins it for me, someone who took an animation class for 2 years :(

    He's not in a vacuum in space, he's just weightless. There are still particles, therefore there is still resistance, therefore Sonic slows down. :colbert:

    Speaking of particles, how come he needs air underwater and not in space

    On my butt in front of the computer. Where else?
    I'm working on working up the willpower to work on learning how to make my own Sonic fangames. Not quite there yet.
    But it would be specifically game-related, and therefore doesn't fit. :eng101:
     
  7. People at the SSMB reckon its s change in Voice Actors, though I can't see why that would require its own announcement.
    Moreover, I can't see how AAUK would be hyperbolic about the announcement, that is hardly franchise changing.

    I'll be surprised if it's a change in voice-actors, now, with the actors actually getting good enough for me not to want one.

    But I doubt it, in any case.

    Would they come out and say that though? I would have thought a change in voice actor would be hidden until the last moment then it's own announcement. how did it go when Ryan Drummand was pushed aside for the 4kids dude?

    I'm calling it right now. They're finally going to admit it. Tails IS a girl.

    EDIT: Godamnit...

    No more Griffith?

    This might be Thursday's announcement, but bear in mind that this is also a rumour. Even if Jason is replaced, it'll most likely be another VA from 4Kids to take over, as Mike Pollock is doing work for Colours.
     
  12. This would be very fantastic news, maybe they'll finally replace him with somebody who also actually enjoys doing the role? I heard Jason hated being voicing Sonic. Maybe they're keeping Pollock but bringing the rest of the cast back? Who knows?

    If Sonic were to never talk again that would be simply fantastic. He's said enough, just stick with the occasional "ya" and "woo!" and stuff and we'll be fine

    I think it's a change of voice actor too, as the VA in Sonic Colors sounds quite different from the usual Griffith. I think they might change it to a more famous VA, like they did with Spyro: a new beggining, using a famous actor to voice him.

    Surely they wouldn't replace him now? I mean, he's been doing rather well lately, at least in my eyes. I can listen to his Sonic performance in Unleashed and look past the previous years of his work as the Hedgehog. Ah well. If he's going silent, I can roll with that, and if there's a new Voice Actor, well, can't wait to hear it. If nothing else, at least Pollock is still Eggman.

    Though regarding that article;
    Always gets a laugh out of me. :v:

    I was really starting to like Griffith but this would be great too!

    Or get Martin Burke again. Fuck you all, CD/OVA Sonic was the absolute best rendition of the character.

    He was getting better, in fact I didn't even mind him in Unleashed. But still, I'd prefer just pulling a Nintendo and keeping our hero mute

    Pollock still Eggman is good news for me.
    He is very good (at least in unleashed and from I gasped in the trailers of colors) for the role IMO for an all-around Robotnik (for Comic and/or Serious situations.)

    Not just "Over"Comic (Long John Baldry/AOSTH) or just "Over"Evil (Jim Cummings/SATAM)

    For the other characters I hope that they don't actually get worse O_O, regarding Sonic everything is possible >_>

    I've actually warmed up quite a bit to Griffith's rendition of Sonic over the years - he really did a great job in Unleashed. And I could've sworn I heard him in the gameplay videos of Colors.


    It's funny; if it were a few years back I'd be ecstatic, but now I'm kind of bummed on the possibility...

    Just the sheer thought about them replacing griffith makes me cringe, simply because there'll be another "Get Jason Griffith Back" thingy going on, I'm calling it already if this rumour is true.

    But about a possible replacement, I don't really care, but I wouldn't mind hearing a different voice for a change. Oberall not a big deal to me though.
