In-game footage of Mario and Sonic
There's a website now.
http://www.sega.com/gamesite/marioandsonic/index.php
There's some interesting things in Game Info.
- ...challenges created specifically for each character in the Mission Mode.
- Unlockable stages where familiar items from the worlds of Mario and Sonic enhance the challenge of each unique event.
Now that's what I'm talking about.

Goddamn Shadow. Also Blaze. And if you look hard enough, Espio.

Cucky and Pecky too. I'm really glad they've brought those little guys back, they were an integral part of Sonic's world.
Speaking of which, it's so weird seeing all of these characters being played straight in a realistic world. I really hope there's an option to play table tennis with Bob-ombs in the Green Hill Zone or collect rings whilst jumping robot hurdles in Dinosaur Land.

You know, most of the characters in both franchises are so relatively easy-going (even the villains) that it's not too hard to picture them competing in a goofy sports game...
But man, watching Shadow, king of angst, doing hurdles with Luigi? That's just hilarious. In any other game he would just cap him, and then that would cue a flashback to Shadow's tragic childhood, when he had a fat Italian babysitter who locked him in the basement.

But yes, I did also enjoy the new trailer. I especially thought the bit where Yoshi and Tails are staring each-other down before a game of TABLE TENNIS was particularly funny.
Also, if you pause it at the right time, you pretty much see the full list of playable characters (barring any unlockables, natch):
~NINTENDO~
- Mario
- Luigi
- Peach
- Wario
- Yoshi
- Bowser
~SEGA~
- Sonic
- Tails
- Knuckles
- Amy
- Shadow
- Blaze
- Dr. Eggman
I do find it amusing that the majority of all the extras doing the side-staffing stuff (i.e. holding the starter pistol) are all SONIC characters. Perhaps SEGA finally realizes they're going overboard?
...*remembers Sonic Rush Adventure*...Oh. Right.
But what if they included subtitles so we can understand what the Chaos are saying?Neo wrote:Chao have been saying chao since Sonic Adventure 2, as portrayed by this track.
And I bet that this game will be better that many post 2000 Sonic games...

Sigh, Shadow had to be in it. I guess they needed a Sega answer to Wario? Okay, but Metal Sonic would've been a better fit, given how non-dramatic this game is.
Anyway, nice cutscenes, but from what we've seen of the actual game, it still looks pretty boring to me. Also, game's title has been changed! It's now MARIO AND SONIC AUX JEUX OLYMPIQUES! Personally, I was getting sick of everything being in English.

Neat footage comes out and what is the response? "OH nOES" bitchplainment about Shadow being in it, if you think it is that horrible go play Sonic labyrinth, that doesn't have Shadow in it. Then again I should not complain because I will bitch when rouge shows up.
ANYWAY: for being an Olympic game this sort of excites me, playing Olympic games by mashing buttons was fun like an ice pick to the head, but actually doing the motions could really be fun.
And the reason Metal Sonic is not playable is because he is secretly planning to destroy the Olympics, and will have to be defeated by Super Sonic and Shadow, burning blaze, turbo tails, starman Mario, green thunder Luigi and Giga bowser at the end of the game.

Sega Sammy predicts selling 4 million copies. I predict the world will be a darker place if their prediction comes true.
New screens at GameSpot.
It confirms that Waluigi and Vector are playable characters. I'm a little surprised at the lack of Donkey Kong so far but I'm sure he'll be in the game even if it's as an unlockable.
