It’s amazing how quickly you can suck out the tension from an obvious fake out death by revealing that the supposedly dead character is alive literally the moment the game starts.
AeroCard well it was pretty bad, but like the environment and graphics were amazing. The game is not very bad. I feel like it was ok because the positivity it tried to give you and the story it tried to give you was something that you can’t blame the developers giving you. The game had a lot of great potential but it was just missing all of them. That’s just my opinion
Looking back at this game, the story really does come off as a badly written self-insert fanfiction. Newly made OC joins the resistance group of Sonic's friends as a rookie recruit, goes on plot essential missions to save Sonic, quickly outperforms everyone by getting shit done while everyone else has been sitting on their hands "waiting for a miracle", fights along Sonic as their quickly appointed best friend (even though the two have known each other for all of 10 minutes), and saves the world and all the Sonic characters thanks to a deus ex machina.
See that's the different, BRB put ALL the effort into Boom, it was the lack of communication from SEGA, when the contract was signed, they were led to believe that the game would be on the better consoles, Xbox One and PS4, hence why they used the Cry Engine, an engine they were all too familiar with, and when they were far into their build, SEGA only then told them that the game will be a Wii U exclusive prior to a contract made with Nintendo with the next three Sonic games being Nintendo Exclusive (Sonic Lost World, Mario & Sonic at the Sochi Winter Olympic Games, and Sonic Boom). It's argued that Sonic Synergy is what they had until the sudden contract announcement, the problems arose when they found out that the Cry Engine doesn't work with the Wii U, because the creators of the engine either didn't sign a contract with Nintendo, or didn't like how Underpowered the Wii U was, then compared to the future Xbox One and PS4 (As they get the Dev Kits way before the consoles launch). So Bigredbutton was essentially trying to force an engine to work for the Wii U, and they couldn't just say no, because they were under a Legal Contract with SEGA, and trying to contact Nintendo was nigh-on impossible with the lack-of communication, and long wait periods due to translation and such. People always go to blame Bigredbutton, but what Sonic Boom was, the version we have, was them trying their hardest to make two things work, it's like trying to make two North End Magnets stick to each other, it just won't work. As someone who's studying Game Development, it's seriously no small feat, plus it didn't help that they were under serious strict time limits given to them by SEGA
Sergeantmajormario SMM well they did put effort in the graphics... Just not the game play If they didnt lose the source code for hedgehog engine 1 forces would have better graphics and better gameplay
"Ooohh, you're that Sonic from an alternate dimension, aren't you? Yeah, that makes sense!" is the line from this game that just sums up the entire Sonic ethos up to this point "Oh, no, we've written ourselves into a corner!" "Ah, who gives a shit? It's mostly kids playing these games anyway. Just make some shit up and pretend it was always that way."
Reminder: Silver's first canon appearance was in Sonic Rivals, where despite the title of the game, he teams up with the rest of the cast to defeat Eggman Nega, a distant descendant from the same time period as Silver who believes that it was the current time's Eggman's fault that he isn't getting the recognition he thinks he deserves his time.
funny joke But that would imply that Sonic 06 is canon, which is not because it was a reboot of everyone's backstory which wasnt even continued nor taking in count in future games

@@mredbadger dude, calm down. I don't know everything. But if he's from a parallel universe, then many things are likely the same or similar. It's just Sonic Teams' explanation of why the 3D Sonic looks so different than OG Sonic. Probably. I don't know everything and honestly, I couldn't give 2 shits about Sonic the Hedgehog. I'm just trying to offer up an explanation. I'm not 100% certain that it's correct. What about all the different 3D games that conflict with one another, like Shadow the Hedgehog. They never bring that up.
This isn't told in the English version, but classic sonic branched into a new timeline (dimension) where he encountered the time eater at a younger age then modern sonic, who encountered time eater at (i think) age 16.
I really like how much they, particularly Arin, enjoyed this game. Sure it was super short and classic Sonic felt totally shoehorned in, but it's still enjoyable, it's just the completely fractured fanbase that will never be satisfied with anything anymore.
emarythomp it wasnt really *shit* It was just pretty dissappointing But It was still a pretty *ok* game that sold pretty well To be honest...i prefer forces over lost world because of many reasons
DAREL slama/slam! a! game To answer your question... no I haven’t. I’m just going off what I’ve heard from the majority. I’m not saying it’s bad personally. I actually bought the game on my switch yesterday so I could have an opinion on it. Who knows I might like it. EDIT: What I meant by “I don’t like it” I meant from what seen and heard, it just doesn’t look interesting in the slightest for me. I bought at a discount price because I knew this game isn’t even worth 40$. Again I might like it afterwards but one thing that I am not changing my thoughts are the story because holy crap it’s absolutely shit. I’ve never seen such disregard from character consistency and lore consistency in any game. I don’t like Sonic as much as I used to and it still pisses me off. Tails being a baby towards Chaos 0 even though he’s beaten Chaos 4, a WAY MORE stronger form, Lack of clarity on what the Phantom Ruby does, Literally NO ONE does anything meaningful because Sonic is apparently Jesus in this universe when other characters can do the same things, if not better than Sonic, And by far the absolute dumbest thing I’ve ever heard in any game ever: “You’re that Sonic from another dimension, aren’t you?” *Face palm* I’m shaking my head. It would have been so, stupidly easy to say he was from the past. In the sonic mania true final boss, you can see the phantom ruby affecting the timer, meaning it can fuck with time. So why not keep classic Sonic from the past? It makes NO SENSE. I don’t care what this game tells me, he is still past Sonic. There’s also the fact that if that’s the case, how does modern Sonic know what green hill is if the the time he first found it was in the past? I feel SEGA and Sonic Team’s disregard for consistency for anything pertaining to Sonic is a big factor as to why I don’t like this series as much as I used to, and I know this isn’t the first time they’ve done this but this... is just insulting.
Oh gee wow you sure are capable in reality and definitely not jumping from distraction to distraction, finding something to be good at even if isnt productive or restorative. Its just entertaining to you, and you know that, so I hope you feel existential dread when youre reminded
It would be so easy to make fun of the kind of people that are super into their sonic OC; Danny's happiness at their potential joy shows the quality of his character.
29:20 I first heard that at 3:45AM at the bakery where I work and spent the rest of my day shift yelling at myself for not having a spare pair of pants in my car. One of my favorite Grump exchanges
I love how shocked Arin and Dan are when Infinite *murders people on screen* Murders people. On screen. People say Infinite is a bad villain but Sega decided to make him so sadistic as to kill people in front of us. *I love this game*
I think it was in FTCR where they said it better. It's not that he is bad in and of himself, but rather they tried too hard on his edge instead of making him stand out more. Hell, you don't finish him, Eggman does.
So just because he kills people in front of you he is a good villain? You have a lot to learn about videogame characters. Your first lessons is "how to tell the difference between a good villain and a wasted villain thrown to the trash can"

yet still more playable than 06 or adventure dx.

@@filmfangirls9163 They made Knucks extremely douchy sister.
its nice to hear people being postive about this game...was it the best no but i had fun and thats all that matters.
I agree I bought it a month ago and I had tons of fun
Same it’s not the best game but I genuinely had fun with it
Matthew Mercer was Espio btw
Oh god
Oh Matthew.......
Liam O Brian was Infinite, for those looking for the rest of the CritRole cast :)

Ah, rad. So glad you're back to making comps. I've got a playlist made of your comps that I like the most.
Thanks, I don't have as much free time as I used to when I made comps regularly but I'd like to make some more.
I really like how much they, particularly Arin, enjoyed this game. Sure it was super short and classic Sonic felt totally shoehorned in, but it's still enjoyable, it's just the completely fractured fanbase that will never be satisfied with anything anymore.
Well yeah, but I personally don’t like it. But if you like then kudos to you dude
Jackeboy have you played it?
It aint bad
Just disappointing
No the game was pretty shit lol. Compared to other sonic games
emarythomp it wasnt really *shit*
It was just pretty dissappointing
But It was still a pretty *ok* game that sold pretty well
To be honest...i prefer forces over lost world because of many reasons
DAREL slama/slam! a! game To answer your question... no I haven’t. I’m just going off what I’ve heard from the majority. I’m not saying it’s bad personally. I actually bought the game on my switch yesterday so I could have an opinion on it. Who knows I might like it.
EDIT: What I meant by “I don’t like it” I meant from what seen and heard, it just doesn’t look interesting in the slightest for me. I bought at a discount price because I knew this game isn’t even worth 40$. Again I might like it afterwards but one thing that I am not changing my thoughts are the story because holy crap it’s absolutely shit.
I’ve never seen such disregard from character consistency and lore consistency in any game. I don’t like Sonic as much as I used to and it still pisses me off.
Tails being a baby towards Chaos 0 even though he’s beaten Chaos 4, a WAY MORE stronger form,
Lack of clarity on what the Phantom Ruby does,
Literally NO ONE does anything meaningful because Sonic is apparently Jesus in this universe when other characters can do the same things, if not better than Sonic,
And by far the absolute dumbest thing I’ve ever heard in any game ever:
“You’re that Sonic from another dimension, aren’t you?”
*Face palm* I’m shaking my head. It would have been so, stupidly easy to say he was from the past.
In the sonic mania true final boss, you can see the phantom ruby affecting the timer, meaning it can fuck with time. So why not keep classic Sonic from the past? It makes NO SENSE. I don’t care what this game tells me, he is still past Sonic. There’s also the fact that if that’s the case, how does modern Sonic know what green hill is if the the time he first found it was in the past?
I feel SEGA and Sonic Team’s disregard for consistency for anything pertaining to Sonic is a big factor as to why I don’t like this series as much as I used to, and I know this isn’t the first time they’ve done this but this... is just insulting.

23:01 I don't know why but that little warped edit of Dan going "wOaH" always makes me laugh so hard
"that's not real, tails" tails is eight go easy on him
Arin: doesnt use weapons, kinda slow times, many retrys S ranks
Me: Uses weapons, fast times, no retrys, A ranks....
No child left behind.
ARIN SUCKS AT VIDEOGAMES!!
Oh gee wow you sure are capable in reality and definitely not jumping from distraction to distraction, finding something to be good at even if isnt productive or restorative. Its just entertaining to you, and you know that, so I hope you feel existential dread when youre reminded
^ projection and edge, the truest combo
@@user-nz5lx8lz8c Okay
Knuckles: We might have to stop using the nickname "rookie" if the new kid keeps this up.
Rookie: Yeah, my first name would be nice. :I

I liked it. It was a big Oooooookay

It would be so easy to make fun of the kind of people that are super into their sonic OC; Danny's happiness at their potential joy shows the quality of his character.
29:20 I first heard that at 3:45AM at the bakery where I work and spent the rest of my day shift yelling at myself for not having a spare pair of pants in my car. One of my favorite Grump exchanges
I love how shocked Arin and Dan are when Infinite *murders people on screen*
Murders people. On screen.
People say Infinite is a bad villain but Sega decided to make him so sadistic as to kill people in front of us.
*I love this game*
I think it was in FTCR where they said it better.
It's not that he is bad in and of himself, but rather they tried too hard on his edge instead of making him stand out more.
Hell, you don't finish him, Eggman does.
So just because he kills people in front of you he is a good villain? You have a lot to learn about videogame characters. Your first lessons is "how to tell the difference between a good villain and a wasted villain thrown to the trash can"

Edgy doesn't mean good, a lesson one would have expected a dev team of 20 years to have figured out after that exploded in their faces.

Welcome to the grump family~
You'll get tired eventually. A big chunk of the initial fanbase does not watch it . I'm not even suscribed anymore
Are you ok?
If you still have interest I highly recommend their wind waker playthrough, it's full of amazing moments and one of the best games since ever
@@AsecasJavi Been watching from the beginning, still in love the gamey grumpies
We finally get to see them play a Sonic game that they not only can stand, but are actually invested in!
Arian’s baby alligator impression is my new favorite thing ever
4:03 "Psycho Mantis?"
That's what I thought. On the Grumps lives stream today, Dan pretended like he didn't know what a fursona was.
54:30 ill smash your eggs had me fucking wheezing for a half hour straight
Not even remotely worth 60 bucks, but after Sonic Boom, this is a huge step up lmao. Kid me would have loved it.
its 20 bucks
Game was 40 at release
@@solitudeguard8122 maybe now, but surley not when it came out
@@brinley9629 i dont think sega would high ball after the repetitive crash and burns of the most frequent sonic games
Boom was made by a completely different team. This wasn't a step up from anything, only a step down.
I know I've seen this a million times, but when I was listening back to the way that Infinite The Jackal speaks, it slowly started sounding like Sephiroth to me and I proceeded to have a mini mëntäl breakdown with uncontrollable laughter... 🤨😆🤣
"This game is gonna make a lot of people really happy."

The Blue Blur Maybe but it could still make him happy.
" This isn't like Sonic Boom where it was rushed out, right? _I think they learned their lesson._ "
*I have never laughed so hard at such a sincere comment*
Danny - "This game doesn't have the same rushed out situation as Sonic Boom, right?"
Arin - "No, I think they put a lot of time and effort into this game."
Oh how wrong they'll turn out to be
I love Dan explaining to Arin the butt fumble with Mark Sanchez 😂😂😂
I also love the music that plays in the background
