    • Welcome To Your New-Look SSMB!   07/11/15

      Hello! You might have noticed that this place has changed a little bit since you last saw it. Welcome to the Sonic Stadium Message Board - 2015 Edition! The moderators, Bmn and myself have been working really hard these last few weeks to make sure the upgrade from IPB 3 to IPB4 was as seamless as possible, whilst also taking the opportunity to update the look and feel of The Sonic Stadium in a modern way. So there are a whole bunch of technical things that have changed, as well as cosmetic changes that relate to how the forum works. You'll see your username above the main content area: click that and a dropdown menu will appear containing most of the options you need to work your profile. Next to your username are a bunch of quick icons that take you to Notifications and Direct Messages. In the blue bar underneath the header, you'll see an 'SSMB' link on the far right (next to the search button), hover your mouse over that and you'll see different sections of the forum, like Calendar and Forum Staff pages etc. Posting replies is simpler than ever, and a lot of the bugs that have been prevalent in the forum this past year have been squashed. (Needless to say though, that if you're seeing anything that's a bit wonky, do post in the Member Feedback/Bug Reports forum, as it will help us troubleshoot stuff!) The cosmetic changes are part and parcel of a wider initiative by myself to reinvent The Sonic Stadium in 2015. Did you know that this plucky little website will be 15 years old in October? It's been through an awful lot, and with the changing habits of forum goers and website readers alike I've been spending a lot of time trying to figure out the best way to present the site (and forum) in a way that makes sense for everyone in today's era. That's why you see a chop-and-change of some of the forum listings on the homepage - SSMB has been re-organised so that discussion is at the top of the list, and the more popular forums are front and center so you can access them much more easily. Needless to say, SSMB's butterfly change into this current form is a prelude to what will soon happen on The Sonic Stadium itself, later this year - a lot more housecleaning is needed on the main site yet, before I can fully unleash the revamped design. Either way, I hope you like this new look and functionality, and are looking forward to what's coming soon! As this is brand new forum software, there will naturally be some elements that haven't crossed over to this new SSMB immediately - namely Badges. We are working hard to get these back, don't worry. They're not lost forever! We're working on a way of getting them back to you.  Stay tuned on that front! You can comment on this news in the topics situated in the Announcements forum, here.

why Sonic, what big teeth you have.

besides the somewhat jarring smile, i like it :D a lot

Gonna watch the trailer now...

EDIT: Gameplay looks as awesome as ever! Isn't that a new act in Tropical Resort Zone? I never saw some of those sections at E3, more than 2 acts confirmed?

I am also ADORING all those CGI segments, cannot wait to see that in full motion. Looking forward to playing this at SoS tomorrow! Thanks for the update Blue Blood

1:06-New desktop ahoy should we get a more HD version.

That's what I want thinking. It's the part with the zipline- that wasn't there are E3. Either it's different act, or further through act 1/2 because they were apparently shortened for demo purposes.

Holy shit, that box art is fucking awesome! Trailer was awesome too, though I'm not sure how I feel about the song yet.

Will this mean Nov 19th release in Europe as we usually get games on the Friday?

You know I was hoping that that old picture of Sonic running through Planet Wisp would be the boxart. But holy moly, I'm more than okay with this! It's even better.

OK...wow. I didn't excpect the boxart to be that brilliant. I love it! The trailer is also excellent, gameplay looks like a blast.

I still hate that song though.

Damn, I was worried this game would just be the daytime stages from Unleashed, but it looks a bit slower. Which is really good! This might just be my favorite 3D Sonic game since SA2.

And you get to see Tails and Curly following you again. I hope Tails really follows you around in the game after you save him.

Boxart is really nice.

Man, I really want this now D:

Also, I like the song.

Oh man, I don't think I've been this genuinely, unreservedly excited for a Sonic game in a while. Trailer looks great, boxart looks great, game looks great.

Also, hey, new wisp on the DS boxart. Looks like it's got something to do with Sonic's spin attack.

Not really. It seems to happen more and more regularly.

I love the trailer. I love the theme song. I love the boxart (best Sonic boxart I've seen in a long time). I also love that Europe gets the game earlier :P

C'mon Lazer!!!!!!

Oh man, I'm freaking psyched! That box art is sexy as all hell, the gameplay looks fabulous, and the song... well ...uh it's not a winner, but who cares!

For a game that came way out of left field, this turned out to look awesome! I must go pre-order it! Now to find some cash....

November 16...same day as LBP2. Joy.

Too bad the the theme song has to suck on the level of a Sonic Heroes song, because everything else looks good. Gameplay, graphic, and even the boxart.

Really loving the cover art. Definitely better than Unleashed in every way.

Also, trailer song, for those who want it. I'm liking it more now I've had more to listen to, but it still isn't exactly my cup of tea.

I am trying my absolute hardest NOT to have a fangasm right now & stay neutral on my stance for this game until I play it. But as awesome as things are looking so far, I can't help but squeal in excitement a bit!

One thing I don't get, though, is why everyone seems to hate this game's theme song? I'll admit; it's not the "Crush 40 Epicness" that we all expect the Sonic 3D games to have in one form or another, but to say it's as bad as the Heroes theme? That's a bit overkill if ya ask me. I'd say it'd be more on par with "Endless Possibilities" from Sonic Unleashed; it's good, but it's not great.

Personally I like it a lot, but that's just me.

If all these game were being release in the middle of Spring on the same day then there'd be a problem. But seeing as the release is in the Christmas period, I wouldn't worry.

None of thos games matter as much as Sonic Colors to me. AC:B comes close, though.

Still, I want the 3DS for Christmas. Luckily my birthday is a month before that, so I'll have some money from my friends =D
