@a.l.e.x59:

I like Sega and all, but their output has been pretty dismal of late. I think that if anyone could revive Sonic, it would HAVE to be someone other than Sega. What was their most recent great game? I can't think of anything...

 I'm only rude because you only seem to make an opinion of your own, and then don't pay attention to others' ideas.  You don't know anything about the game yet, I don't get why you're judging it.  You should more excited if anything that Bioware is onboard to perhaps revitalize the Sonic franchise.  If it turns out to be crap, then nothing has changed...they can really only improve. 

And yet again, you rely too much on gamerankings.com.  Try playing all those games instead of using compiled review scores to form your opinions.

I only wish he'd answer my question

 Well, we'll see how good the game is, once it comes out.

 I don't think Sonic RPG will be good like Mario RPG.

 Mario RPG:

-Aided by Squaresoft, in its highest prime.

-Uses 'silly' fictional characters from a cartoonish, and often times over-used, mediocre series of games.

SEGA RPG:

-Aided by Bioware, revolutionary and brilliant RPG studio.

-Uses 'silly' fictional characters from a cartoonish, and often times over-used, mediocre series of games.

(Mediocre meaning not every series game is a hit, and some series games are a complete flop, but also include blockbusters that even the balance out.)

There's my reasoning.....   have you had yours? 

True, but...

Mario = good. Sonic = bad.

 I'm trying to think of the game where Mario characters were actually evolved, given more personality definition, back story, emotions, and just plain character progression - I can't think of any NES games that had any of that at all, whatsoever.... Mario 3 had "Princess Letters" coing to you, but they weren't -that much- in terms of development, more of explanation of the next area, as I recall.

Mario Kart possibly, but really only the voice acting and one-line scripts for victories.

Mario RPG - now that's where we actually have plot, some progression, home towns, emotional reactions to events and phrases, interactions.....

Dare I say, I don't think the Mario franchise had much more than voice acting, grunts and sounds before Mario RPG came along.   Perhaps Mario RPG was the real definitive franchise game where characters actually were given a persona beyond on-screen looks and yelling.

Does anyone that has read this thread still respect A.l.e.x59? I mean this has to be one of the worst examples of posting I have ever seen. Alex your opinion is just that an opinion. You can't pass it off as fact.
