The Left Side Thinks You All Should Shut the Hell Up!

So. The trailer for Sonic 4 is out. And all we have to say is Fuck Yeah!!

The teaser trailer shows us everything we had wanted from a Sonic game. It's side scrolling classic Sonic.

 The thing that makes me want everyone to shut the hell up, is the amount of bitching coming from the fans. OMG! Sonic looks like crap with green eyes! Why isn't he a 2D sprite? He's so skinny! He doesn't even look like a hedgehog anymore. Shut the hell up!

Does having green eyes make him look all that different? When was the last time you saw a major title that's been in pixel sprites? Why does it matter that he lost some weight? He runs a lot, seems to me he would get skinnier. HE NEVER LOOKED LIKE A FUCKING HEDGEHOG!

The only thing that needs work, as far as us animation students are concerned, is the run cycle. It looks a little slow. That will probably be fixed before the game is released. 

The saddest part about all the bitching is that it's going to discourage SEGA from continuing on this Path of Awesome. 

But, we here at Observations from the Other Side of the Couch are very excited about Sonic 4. Way to go SEGA.
