Title: Which nextgen home console Sonic game are you waiting for?!
Post by: quesuerte on October 22, 2006, 06:24:07 am
I think it's a joke that they haven't realeased both on at least one system. Talk about conning Sonic fans into buying more than one console.

One hundred percent fucking right. And they've probably got me.

Lol. It almost got me but not quite. Still not getting a 360 but my cuz might and if he does, then, maybe I'll try Next-Gen.

I'll be buying a Wii first since they're so cheap, so of course I'm getting Sonic and the Secret Rings first.  I'll get a 360 if they ever go down in price, which may happen once they actually have competition.  Right now they own the market for next-gen consoles, and are taking full advantage of it.

I really want the Wii, but Sonic '06 is the type of Sonic game I really like.  I can't really decide which Sonic game I really want just yet.

I'll fill you in with videos, Groudon. :P

No seriously, if you want me too I will so you don't feel you're missing out on the action. I'm sure you'll do the same for me for 06, right? ...right...?!

*ks8 takes back his offer


I like Sonic 06 as well but for me, since I've already planned on getting the Wii, Secret Rings is my first choice.

Sonic the Hedgehog obvisously. Speaking of which, has been delayed on the PS3 from November 2006 to "Holiday 2006". Blarghargh.

Where's the "Neither looks particularly worth getting" option?

Since i'd be buying a whole new console for just 1 game probably, there's no way i'm going to get either unless they get straight 10's for reviews.

Sonic and the Secret of the Rings is the one I won't have to buy a whole $400+ system for, so...
yeah, it wins, even though I still wonder if SEGA can make it really good.
But they seem to be messing up Sonic 06 already, so at least SotR has a chance to be better.

And I'll say it again: I'm still unsure about getting a Dreamcast at Ca$h Converters,
and that'd be only a little more than $50, even with a memory card and SA included.
Getting an XBox 360 or Playstation 3 for an expensive game that most likely
isn't nearly as good makes that purchase look like nothing.

I wouldn't waste my money on a PS3, especially since the Sonic '06 release has been delayed for it.

You're definitely right about that. Despite all the hype that's been going for it, after learning more about the game (more specifically the story), you'll see even more that they have...

I still have mine, 4 memory cards, SA, Shuffle, and other games too (I got literally robbed of my SA2 though...).

Try looking around other places too. Check like Ebay and see the general ranges for prices and then see if it would be a worthy investment. But off the bat, I'd say that's still a tiny bit too high.. but that's just me being money-conscious. But if you can't go any lower then I guess you may as well go for it. :P

Well, it is the only way I can get the Dreamcast SA. Emulation is messed up for a bunch of reasons,
even just for exploration and comparisons, not to mention time-attacking, which is nearly impossible
(slowdown after a few minutes, bad controls, too-high framerate, floaty glitch, inaccessible stages, and more).

Yeah, the price is a little high, although I paid $60 for an N64 bundle at the same store in 2002
(console with one controller, the RF switch and modulator connection set, an Expansion Pak, and The Legend of Zelda: OoT).
And it's way cheaper than any other system would be... except GBA, which I could get brand-new for $50. :(
(That's like nothing compared to even the Revolution.)

I'm checking eBay right now, but as I remember, almost everything there costs too much because of shipping.

Sonic DX for the GC. The Post-Heroes games suck.

Not at all new or next-gen, but yeah, SADX>>>>everything.

I'm sure it's possible to make games that are way better by fixing SA's flaws,
but I don't think anything can replace SA, even if it's "better".
