Sonic Boom: Fire & Ice

[Radiant Hero Ike]

So Nintendo of Europe just posted this on Twitter.

Apparently we're getting another Boom game for 3DS.

 

Not much info to go on, besides maybe it being two different versions ala Pokémon. Thoughts?

Interesting promo art.

 

Also just when you thought there will be no Sonic game this year.

[Indigo Rush]

 

I return for one day and then this happens

 

Should I go back in hiding

[Wraith]

Oh, they're still gonna keep making these huh..?

 

Well...

 

yeah.

 

[Spin Attaxx]

Welp, looks like the Boom series is here to stay.

 

I just hope RoL and SC taught SoA a lesson - don't do what they did then.

[Tara]

Yeah, just heard about this now on Twitter.  The promo art looks really nice, so good job on that, I guess.  I can only hope that it's better than the last pair of games.  Do we know who is developing this game?

[PSI Wind]

Sanzaru is developing it again much like the previous 3DS Sonic Boom. Maybe they've learned from the last game?

[Diogenes]

Looks identical to the first 3DS Boom game, aside from adding Amy and the 2 element gimmick.

So it's probably shit.

Is Sonic dead yet?

[Ryannumber1Scarer]

NOT MORE SHATTERED CRYSTAL GAMEPLAY.

 

How can Sega be so stupid?

[Rucdose]

 

bring through the children, so i can show them what the depths of hell look like

[Mando-Whirl-Wind]

The Sonic game drought is over! just not with the games anyone wanted... then again Sonic Boom is a 'hit' show, and 3DS is a wildly popular handheld that did need more games in this years lineup

[PickleBrows]

I was about to say I'll wait and see what the gameplay looks like.

 

More Shattered Crystal it seems. Eh?

 

I mean that game played fine. It was nothing amazing but it wasn't broken either.

 

So, next year then?

[ThePrinceOfSaiyans]

Here's to hoping they don't fuck up this time...

[Indigo Rush]

So

 

 

 

This is Sonic Boom Mach 2?

[Chaos Warp]

Okay both Sonic Boom games were bad. SEGA normally drops Sonic ideas like a rock when they do bad. So what the fuck is going on here?!?!

[Tara]

Whoops.  Didn't see that gameplay trailer posted.

 

Not excited.  It looks literally no better than Shattered Crystal.  I will say that the graphics look like they've improved a bit, but the gameplay looks as bland, repetitive, and clunky as ever.

[Marcello]

"Hey, these rushed Sonic Boom games were recieved badly and sold terribly. Let's make a sequel and give the developer a whole year to make it!"

 

Also, to answer your question, SEGA, you get water when you mix fire and ice. Water.

[Soniman]

Im so fucking livid right now

[-blank-]

Well, the gameplay seems a little faster-paced and the graphics seem to have improved. *shrug*

I'm no fan of the Boom games, but if you were to cash in on the success of the cartoon wouldn't this be the smartest cheapest move available? Take an already established game engine and put it on the best selling handheld?

 

Edit: For the record I don't know how well Shattered Crystal sold.

[GamerGirl54321]

I hope that they actually do some world-building this time...

[CottonCandy]

Well, it's Sanzuru making this so...I mean Shattered Crystal wasn't horrible or anything from what I heard so I don't know what to say. Doesn't look like it'll grab my attention anyway. 

 

This screams cartoon license game. 

[Ruby Havoc]

I don't think I've ever asked myself "why" so much in such a short amount of time. Did the maximum bomba of the previous games mean nothing.
