Dear Bob,

Who do you hire for your character design and how are they still employed? Is everyone else from your team from elance or deviant art?

Sincerely,
Me.

How clever of you using a picture because you're too inarticulate to use words to effectively make your point.

KonsoruMasuta4153d ago (Edited 4153d ago )

Those aren't his custom designs. They're just following SEGA's source material.

SEGA designed those characters, not Big Red Button. Those character designs are for SEGA's new Sonic show that's going to air on Cartoon Network.

Smashbro294153d ago

You got me there. Change the name and the point stands.

thezeldadoth4153d ago

actually thats not true. in the interview today, the developers said they designed it first and the show used their designs

linkenski4153d ago

Go play Sonic 06 or Unleashed then if you don't dig this.

Smashbro294153d ago

Sonic 06 was a shit game. Unleashed looks better than this.

linkenski4153d ago

Maybe Unleashed looks better graphically overall but I highly doubt this game will be THAT shitty.

Unleashed was a horrible drag and test of patience. Not even the daytime stages were enjoyable at worst.

Nintentional24153d ago

The character designs look just fine dude. People Need to stop acting so damn childish.

The character models aren't that bad... except for knuckles...some one should be jailed for what they did to Knuckles

linkenski4153d ago

Knuckles should be in jail.. I mean, just LOOK at him! He's been doing illegal stuff I tell you. Dem steoroids.

Sonic The Hedgehog: 6 Classic Sonics We'd Love to See in The Movie's Redesign

Here are some classic Sonic designs that could replace the controversial original debuted in Paramount's latest trailer.

SegaGamer2242d ago (Edited 2242d ago )

Just scrap the whole thing. Nobody wants a Sonic movie, especially the fans. Hollywood rarely gets game movies right.

PhoenixUp2242d ago

How can any studio executive look at the time tested and proven Sonic designs over the years and come up with that monstrosity

Just look how how the Detective Pikachu movie successfully adapts so many of Pokémon to the big screen to mostly everyone’s visual pleasure.

Why would you deviate from that? The blueprint is already in front of you!

jaymacx2242d ago

This is why it is important that a movie maker form their vision around the source material instead of having the source material conform to a movie maker’s vision. Hollywood usually does the later unfortunately.

FlyingFoxy2242d ago

Eh, people are going to find a way to bash it IMDB style no matter what. I personally rarely pay attention to those kind of sites since taste differs anyways.

chris2352242d ago

the only people who are goin towatch this is toddlers with their parents. no need to get too elaborated about this project.

Sonic Boom series: Not a Total Failure

The Sonic Boom series get a lot of flack from the Sonic and gaming community at large. And in a lot of ways that's very much earned. But not all is bad when it comes to Sonic Boom games if you're willing to step around (or forgive) Rise of Lyric.

The tv show is the best thing to come out of this spinoff franchise

lellkay2855d ago

The TV show is so good, way better than it has any business being.

The Sonic Boom games have all been bad. Some gave Fire & Ice a shot, hoping for a revival, but things haven't changed.

I hope Sega stops producing Sonic Boom games. The TV show is great though

-Foxtrot3186d ago

The TV series is just as bad

You want something to die for good...you got to get rid of everything.

XisThatKid3186d ago

I'm into some pretty dumb shows but Sonic Boom is certain garage. There way to comedic relationship with Robotnik and Sonic friends is a deal breaker for me off the jump despite everything else wrong with this abomination.

SegaGamer3186d ago

The show is awful too. Everything surrounding Sonic Boom is just not what Sonic is. The Cartoon, the games, the voice actors, the character designs, it's all terrible.

wonderfulmonkeyman3186d ago

Knuckles should never have skipped leg day at the gym...
