Well, do you like classic, or the modern look? I like the modern look better. Discuss.

Can't beat the classic look, imo. The classic look just screams "SONIC" right in my face.

The new look actually screams "MARIO" right in my face. You see the problem, yes? (And I'm guessing it screams MARIO because Next-Gen Sonic's in Brawl, and like, so is almost every other Nintendo character. And Snake.)

It depends for me...

Do you mean Classic as in, cartoons AND video games? Or Classic as in video games?

I prefer Sonic in Underground, but then again I like the style of modern Sonic, it makes him look more like a hero.

Hm.... still a hard choice...

I like sprites as well as 3D, I don't favor one more like most.

I guess I'll just go with modern.

My lamp was revolutonary too, it started the Falco Punch meme. :3

Modern Sonic looks badass now, but the classic Sonic was even more badass.  New gen tells old school to lose the weight and play Sonic Mega Collection and Sonic Unleashed to notice the difference.  Old school tells next-gen to go grab a few chilidogs, and says screw you next gen, I'll be back when Needlemouse comes out.

GUYZ ITS GETTING OFF-TOPIC D:

*turns on-topic switch on*

I changed my mind. I choose the classic one. Just look at the diffrences.

(http://mike.shaftedstudents.com/images/Sonic1.JPG) (http://i477.photobucket.com/albums/rr140/animevideogamefan/sonic/Sonic2.jpg)

Classic is like 'im going to kick your ASS.' And the modern is like 'screw chillidogs. Im tall and a princess has a crush on me.'

Modern Sonic. I like his sleek athletic design better and to me it looks more grown up with an edge and an attitude. Heroes always change over time.

And also...I am kind of tired of this "old school" is better movement. Seriously...pixels are better than detailed 3D graphics? O.o
Title: Re: Classic or Modern: Sonic
Post by: Dracoslythe on January 14, 2010, 04:32:18 PM
As I said; both have their pros and cons.

Honestly, I think that the modern Sonic is geared more towards the younger generation.
Heroes are meant to be cool, awesome, etc.  I don't think I know any kid (or adult.  lolz,  whatever.  lol) who wants a squat, fat thing as a hero.

But, the modern Sonic has also changed drastically from the old school Sonic.

We all just have to grow up and see that times are changing.
Even if the classic Sonic was amazing<3


I still say that the SA style Sonic was the best.  It was a great medium.  The MODERN, REALLY MODERN Sonic looks too...eh.  The SA style Sonic kept his "spunkyness" from the classic, yet still retains the sleek/athletic look.

Actually, in my opinion, some of the new Sonic designs look more serious (take SA2 and 06 for example). Not that it's necessarily a bad thing, he WAS originally gonna look more feral until they decided to make him look somewhat cuter when thinking about American audiences.

American audiences? Are you sure? American audiences love that kind of stuff. It's the Japanese that sqeee over cute stuff. What about chibi? And how do you think moe was conceived? ...wait, I don't think many people here know what moe is. XD

SA1 & 2 had the "modern" sonic...
