Shadow of a Hedgehog game: Shadow packs a GUN!!1

I'd probably hate VGCats less if they didn't reenact every game sequence humorously with, well, cats. I know it's their gimmick, but it's hard to make the connection sometimes. A comic about Mario Sunshine might well be funny, but a comic with a grey cat in a Mario costume just doesn't turn my crank. It's as if they're talking about something completely fucking different.

I agree with j-man, actually. It's very hard to relate to a comic when every scene in every strip revolves around one specific animal.
Yes, it's possible for a furry to dislike something about furry things.

It's time for action: Sonic Team style.

Oh, come on. You have a problem with animals as the characters? Didn't you ever watch Disney's Robin Hood or stuff?

Q: Eeeew! Furry!
A: Hey, that's not a question! I didn't know about anything Furry until after I started the comic. Though I know now the art style is regarded as such. I really don't care either way so long as I make you laugh : )

You can hate on VGCats for it not being funny, but don't hate on it for being, well, furry. Now, granted, a large chunk of the community VGC gathered together turned out to be furry, but you can't blame that on the creator.

I didn't think it was possible to hate VGCats! Come on... Mr Potatomoto!

I've been following VGCats pretty much since Scott started the strip, and I love it. And yeah, I didn't even know about furries back then, and the connection never hit me until I heard faggots complaining about how VGCats sucks because it's furry. His two main characters just happen to be cats, is all.

Oh god! I just realized something horrible.

What's the most trite over-used plot ever? The one the idiots at SoA are sure to use?

Evil twins.

That's right. We're going to have a game featuring an evil twin of an evil twin.

Mr. Potatomoto is the coolest.

Since Mario is Italian and all, it only makes sense that he's in a mafia. Because it's edgy, you know. And he can wear leather. The kids like leather.

And guns.

Post by **Esrever** » Tue Mar 15, 2005 4:24 pm

Man, kids love guns.

Sometimes hate can be a good thing to spur on improvements.
The more I look at this thread the more I wonder if the trailer does what will be the final game any justice.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA What? You're serious?

I have 3 Linkin Park CDs, but they aren't deep. MAYBE a little edgy.

Zeta wrote: That's just it! Shadow's not a bad-ass. He just looks like one. Black with red-eyes keep on making think he's like a hedgehog version of Sephiroth or something. But he's actually a whiny little bitch who won't stop complaining about Maria or going "Woe is me! My life is so dark! I who was created to kill!" Blah blah blah and other forced Anne Rice shit. He's about as badass as Linkin Park. He's not a tough asshole who doesn't care. He's a whiny goth kid who cares too much and think the world hates him and won't shut up about it.

He's not Vegeta at all. He's more like - well, actually Toriyama was smart enough to not include a character like Shadow in Dragonball.

You BETTER say that again. You hit the nail on the head. Damn that's an annoying figure of speech.

Frieza2000 wrote: But he's only whiny like that in Sonic Battle, in which EVERYONE acts out of character, and I don't consider cannon.

Sonic Battle is canon and the characters are perfect. How could you NOT like it? It's a million and one times better than Sonic Heroes.

Double-S- wrote:That thing about the gun being optional is absolutely nothing but fan speculation on a couple of segments in the trailer where you couldn't see a gun. So I don't see why everybody seems to be putting so much faith into that.

As for Shadow, his character sucked from the beginning. We don't need another "Sonic equal". Metal Sonic is good enough. But they had to gay him up, too, for Heroes.

Yea the fact that we couldn't get a classic Sonic vs Metal Sonic battle in 3D really killed the game. Metal Sonic oh I mean "Metal Overlord" had to transform into some crappy dragon thing. That could have been the game's one saving grace.

I think Iizuka has a thing for giant dragon final bosses.

Timestones · Post by **Timestones** » Tue Mar 15, 2005 6:04 pm

I wouldn't have cared that Metal Sonic became a huge dragon like thing if we got to fight him in his normal form at least once.

Hopefully this game does not kill off the Sonic franchaise. I would like to see the games set on Mobius again before it ends.
Just 99 posts off Boobies and it's still going pretty much on topic!
Maybe we should start a countdown...

Mobius? there is not such thing.

The Retards at SoA decided to call Sonic's world Mobius.

Sonic has always been on Earth. the SA2 world is the same as Heros.

Heck! Greenhill zone was a Stage in SA2, NUFF SAID!

But Sonic X had to Screw that up!

Damn Sonic Team!

Omni Hunter · Post by **Omni Hunter** » Tue Mar 15, 2005 6:43 pm

Ahhh, I see, that explains a lot. It's true that Sega America complicated things too much. Heck, I'd like to see their excuse for the story line of this game just so I can laugh at the bullshit.

SegaSonic · Post by **SegaSonic** » Tue Mar 15, 2005 7:08 pm

the story will probably be like this.

shadow: I gotta go to do... something something.

then you see him find a gun at the floor thus the crappy adventure starts.

at the end you fight yet another lizard, and you get no answers whatsoever and even more questions.

oh..and even more endless pits than heroes.

Reala wrote a pretty good explanation of the Mobius/Earth thing. To my knowledge, it's all accurate.

SegaSonic · Post by **SegaSonic** » Tue Mar 15, 2005 7:19 pm

yeah thats what losers say.

losers that dont want to offend other losers who belive in crap created by those SoA morons!

All of the Sonic Games were made with The Japanese Story in mind, Dont give me that SoA is also accurate Crap.

oh and reala can rot in jail for all I care.

Omni Hunter · Post by **Omni Hunter** » Tue Mar 15, 2005 7:31 pm

Bitching aside, I hope that this game does solve Shadows mystery otherwise we would have to put up with the sequel.
I doubt that it will, maybe a few references to Gerald and Maria.
