"Kids, don't use Formula One racecars to chase hedgehogs!" FFFFF- Bloody 4Kids. What's wrong with that?

Nothing. The line's actually much funnier than the Japanese version's "don't stand on moving race cars" line or whatever it specifically was. But 4Kids did it so it must be the devil.

Enjoyed the first, but was a bit disappointed with the track roster, I hope if there is a sequel in the works that they sort that out.

I do hope they include some modern music tracks too - I'd like if they had Generations' level of customisability with regards to music. Racing to Egg Nega Wisp II or Perfect Dark Gaia would just be epic to me. Also, every final boss vocal. Include it. >:C I'm amused Silver didn't make the character roster. He's a favorite as a party character as I recall; it seems to be what he primarily does since he doesn't appear in stories much anymore. Sega, make sure to include another obscure hint that Shadow is Silver's father. Have Silver ride like, a Tron-esque cycle to compete against Shadow's actual cycle. There are like 16 non-Sonic characters compared to eight from Sonic. Sonic still enjoys the plurality. Just because you have only 1/3 of the pie instead of 1/2 doesn't mean you're not the biggest fish in the pond. I would still like some more character inclusion, however.

It just sounds dumb to me. I mean, who would chase a hedgehog with a racecar anyway? Pretty stupid message to give to kids whereas the Japanese line - while probably still spoken under the common impression that all children are idiots - makes a little more sense.

Yeah it does say a lot you need a car to chase a freaking rodent. XD
I do like the idea of him riding in a car to give the others a fair chance, though.
I've always imagined Sonic as being one to deliberately hold back on pursuing his full potential(wrt Chaos powers) or using the full extent of his abilities, so as to increase the pool of contenders. Similar to why bad guys let the good guys live - they need entertainment.

Never mind Tails' sad claims of being Sonic's best friend, when it's obvious Chris is the best friend here.
I think Sonic's a gold digger - apart from running around, that bum does NOTHING for money. He clearly just befriends the wealthy, sucks them dry, then runs off to find a new one. Seriously, he's dated/been best friends with the President's daughter, the son of a wealthy business couple, a Princess... I suppose Tails was very wealthy back home but on Earth there's just so many more options. I suspect Robotnik was once Sonic's best friend and has devoted his life to destroying Sonic for so coldly disposing of him. Robotnik now puts his colossal fortune into machines rather than Sonic's fashion habits.
Ahem. At least we won't have 4Kids voices in the new game. Hopefully they'll do more than just re-use soundclips, too. Obligatory petition to get Shadow a new voice too - I dislike any but his original. Everyone BUT Shadow gets a good voice these days it seems.

Most people weren't able to tell that he wasn't in fact Dan Green. That's just a bit scary to me. Unlike the others, where the change is a bit noticeable upon review. My particular complaint is of course, always Shadow's voice. Griffith and his current voice actor simply cannot compare to the original for me. I can adapt to all the others over time. Vector not having a consistent voice, I don't care much for his VA. All I know is he needed to be thrown into the sea for inventing the Find the Computer Room meme. Rouge's also always annoyed me, sounding like a woman who chain smoked too much. At least her new one re-asserts that she is in fact a woman. (Though I doubt she'll be in this new game but I'm sure my one friend will BAWWWW all about her since that's half of what his Sonic fandom consists of argh but I digress) Knuckles and Eggman seem to consistently be the best. Indeed, Mike Pollock had the last laugh - every 4Kids voice but him was canned!

He had to re-audition for the role though. Hmm, so either the others didn't bother or tried and failed. I do wonder how they chose all the voices - who contacted whom? Hmm. If the 4Kids actors tried to keep the jobs but failed horribly, I'd laugh. Which, given that 4KIds has imploded, I bet they all did - Sonic was probably one of the bigger jobs they could hope to land. Silver's voice remains the most hilarious. Raiden and Axel. Right up there with Sonic being Chris Redfield. I do ponder if they'll include Silver. I hope so, that way whenever him and Knuckles fight I can make obscure comments that only I understand.

I hope you win the lottery so you never have to know how hard unemployment is. Did I ever say unemployment isn't hard? However, 4Kids actors being of sub-standard quality(to me anyway), I'm not exactly going to be pining for them to have the job. Jobs should go to whoever's best fit to do them. Dan Green's wife just died, man. Didn't know that. My condolences.

You finding their voice-acting to be below your personal standard of quality makes it okay to laugh at them being out of regular work? Maybe it's because I haven't slept...

You finding their voice-acting to be below your personal standard of quality makes it okay to laugh at them being out of regular work? I'd laugh, because that means Sega likewise rejects them, and the only reason they ever made the job in the first place was because 4Kids was good at nabbing licenses to things. If not for that Sonic X debacle, they'd've never graced the floors of the recording studio. The exceptions to this are near-unanimously deemed to be Dan Green and Mike Pollock. Dan Green's personal loss likely interfered with his ability to keep his role(though his replacement does a scary imitation), and Mike Pollock, well, Sega concurred with the fanbase and kept him. But the rest of the lot? Good riddance. My way of thinking of it is this anyway: are they necessarily out of work, or did they just not land this particular job? A voice actor is a horrible profession in most cases, and many roles will need to be taken to sustain oneself. Never mind, they may not have the job, but someone else does. An unfortunate trait of the system is for every time you succeed, someone else must fail. But that's enough of that for here.

Which I hope so, as I loved Black Knight but couldn't care less for any of the Riders spinoffs. Dimensions is the spiritual successor to Colors, taking place after Generations. It's rumored and I guess it's not known if it's real or not. But if it is, that's four games to look forward to. Sega usually releases in groups of three, but maybe they're stepping up their game.

is that so? well, I also liked Black knight, graphic and plot wise, but hated both storybook game's gameplay. If they could tweak that to a more generation's style (without the demented story) it should be something to look forward to. because it's a garanty catch on chicks!!! -_-" I was under the impression Sonic himself was a guarantee on chicks. -Elise -Sara -Sally -Mina -Bunnie (sorta) -Fiona -Chip -Tails -Chris pff! true, very true! AND HE'S A BLUE HEDGEHOG ladies and gentelmen! but hey, I can't believe you forgot the first of the list! And to think that "she" hasn't said a word about something else than him since her creation XDXD oh, well, for full list I raccomend this www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hu0HHUCH_0g
