It still sounds like Jason griffith to me. But it is weird they're using the same clip from Sonic WildFire. (Which was a clip from Sonic Riders iirc..)

Maybe they're bringing Ryan bac-*shot*


And yeah, Robotnik's new design sucks. =\

Also, did Sonic's voice sound somewhat different in the trailer?
When he said 'Alright! Let's do it!' He sounded nothing like Jason Griffith.
I just realized something.. Eggman looks like a gopher in this picture.

A gopher with four huge, yellow nipples.

I don't see a problem with his design, really. He still seems cartoony enough and looks pretty good in motion, from what I saw in that last trailer. Of course, I never said this whole "realistic" approach was particularly appealing, but at least it doesn't look like shit.

Gamespy recently interviewed Lacy Chabert who is the voice of Princess Elise. Chabert is something of accomplished actress, having starred in Party of Five, Mean Girls and lending her voice to Meg Griffin in Family Guy.

In the interview, she reveals that Sonic and Elsie “have an attraction for each otherâ€￾, but “it’s not an inappropriate relationshipâ€￾.

at first they said I was going to be the voice of Sonic, which I thought was odd because Sonic is a boy, and my voice doesn't sound like a boy's voice, but then they told me I was actually playing Princess Elise.
WHAT?!

I like Eggman's look, save for the four golden udders he's developed.

Great! Just what this game needs. Yet more playable characters. Let's hope they all have Super forms!

Fake, Tails is not playable. He only appears in the game.

Actually, i'm lying. But i've heard his play style is a bit messed.

Yes! I was hoping I could play as Tails one way or another.

Tails not in a mech? Huzzah. Here's hoping he won't be racing either.

What do you mean by a bit messed? Like controls poorly or is obnoxiously slow? Also, can you confirm if he can play in more than one level/is unlockable to be played as in other levels/Knuckles is playable/etc?

OCB, is Tails (+Knuckles, Blaze...) playable during story mode or just in non-story mode, à la Metal Sonic in SADX?

I would anticipate an extra non-story mode, considering all the importance being thrust on the three main hedgehogs.

Hm. If Lacy Cherbert is playing Princess Elise, that means the game won't be just annoying 4Kids actors.

Perhaps Ryan will return? :D

...Hey, I can dream.

I am a little worried though. Lacy Chebert has an extremely high voice, like that of a chipmunk from a Donald Duck cartoon. She's also the voice of Eliza Thornberry, the most high-pitched cartoon character ever created. For once, a 4Kids VA (Veronica Taylor, voice of april on TMNT) would've suited the character more. I imagine she's gonna pitch it up really high, since this is a kids game.

..Uhm. Anyway. Pardon my ''crabiness'' just thought i'd point that out.

..*cough*

On another topic.

Eggman actually looks pretty cool here. He's missing his goggles though.

I hope they can axess the Town stages, I had fun with Characters like Tails and knuckles climbing buildings discovering emblems and such, speaking of emblems it would be neat if they returned for a change.

It would be nice if the spinning Eggman/Sonic signs at the end of the levels would return.

Second'd. With gusto.

I could personally do without emblems. I liked when I didn't have to play a stage rediculously fast to achieve anything. Emeralds and a main game, that's enought for me. OCB, can you confirm if there's still an emblem system in the game?

And it'd be lovely if you could keep your lies consistent at least within your own posts.

Yeah! thats what Ive always been pondering, but I guess its the same as saying one single Saving Pole instead of two. The Goal rings should lead to Special Stages also!
Lacy Cherbert is playing Princess Elise
But I heard it was one of them 4KIDS actors, is this another OCB lie?

Ha, yeah... not gonna happen, though, given that it's already been stated that they're using the giant rings as the goals, like pretty much every 3D <i>Sonic</i> game since <i>SA2</i>.

Anyway, it's kinda weird that big smile's link now links to a page that only mentions a "Sonic the Horndog". No interview in sight. That bad joke aside, I wonder why they took it down?
