Sonic Boom Gameplay (SPOILER: lol it's shit) -

I never realised just how big that Knuckles character model is. He looks absurd. Is this game even finished?

 

[Pikonic]

Knuckles killed the bug...good for him.

 

[Francis York Morgan]

A modern Sonic game has shit gameplay? Color me surprised.

 

[Mourning Dove]

Why is Knuckle's body going through the squid/alien thing's body? Why is there a squid/alien thing in the first place? This is very troubling.

 

[Descent]

This is prime example of why I hate LOLRANDOM humour. Also,

"LYRICS(?) GOONS! THEY'RE ATTACKING!" *tranquil music and no sound effects*

So far I'm firmly allied with Chris in boycotting this game. But I don't care about the blue arms. The game just looks like it sucks.

Well, I'm sure it's a bet. I mean they still have time to polish it before it goes on.... sale... tomorrow...

Well on the bright side, this was probably the most unintentionally hilarious thing I've seen all month. And I guess the standing animations are pretty nice. And... no... that's all I got.

They didn't even wait until the ship was completely behind the trees for it to disappear.

 

[Lord RainbowDash]

Ugh......well, besides the bugs, the gameplay looks fun in my opinion. Hopefully it isn't TOO buggy, I was actually looking forward to this

 

[Cute Anime Girl]

Also a nice tidbit if you didn't know: Sonic Boom is on the Crytek engine.

 

[Kamen Rider Black RX]

Look at that ship's shadow move. So non-fluid.

 

[Overcast]

Jeez. This looks really bad. Reminds me of a lot of early ps2/gamecube/xbox games.

I don't want to judge the entire game based on this one section shown in the video, but I really wouldn't be surprised if the entire game was like this.

What's especially sad about this is that considering this game also has a TV show tie in, this is probably how a lot of kids are going to be introduced to Sonic. And I doubt they'll respond to him as positively as kids did back in 1991.

 

[Shuu Iwamine]

The voice acting is so horribly atrocious. Granted, I know previous Sonic games haven't had good voice acting either, but IT'S STILL SO BAAAD.

 

[Dr. Meme]

Yeah that's bad and all but what's the deal with sonics arms colour?

 

[LordDarkrai]

I might get this to see if it continues being so bad its good. This video made my day.

 

[spaps]

Guy from 8Chan is streaming it.
IT'S FUCKING BAD HOLY SHIT

EDIT: Also the streamer is DSP-level bad.

 

[RP 520]

So is this game the second coming of Sonic 06?

So is this game the second coming of Sonic 06?

No matter how bad this game gets, it will never reach down to levels of this:

Literally the only complaint I have is the bugs seen, but if they're rare ( at least the game breaking ones), than they're nothing that can't be ignored. Honestly, the game looks good to me, I can't understand the sheer contempt people have for it. I get the impression that people want to hate it.

Tho I'll reserve judgement till reviews come along and or I've seen more of the game. Watching stream now, and so far looks fine to me.

We'll see how long that opinion lasts.
