"Sonic and the Black Knight" announced in new Nintendo Power

Assuming that I was the only one who went to Comic Con, they had people playing the demo of it. I didn't get to play though because the line was too long (And because of me kicking Nu Gundam's ass with Strike Freedom in Dynasty Warriors: Gundam 2 :p) Now from what I saw, the character models seemed....okay. I mean, this is a Wii, I wasn't exactly expecting stellar graphics but it was as that video showed. It seemed...fun but at the same time, I had a sinking feeling that I don't think that I would last long with this game. Not to say that its going to fail horribly but more like I am going to stay cautious of this one and wait for more footage.
 
We received the new Nintendo Power at work today and it contained a review for Sonic and the Black Knight.

The game scored an 8.0. They mention that you can pretty much run through the game in a day, but that there is a LOT of optional stuff you can do: gain more followers, gain level in three fighting styles, optional quests, run through the game with the other three optional characters, gain more equips, interact with villagers, etc etc.

They also mention the controls and stage designs are pretty smooth but there were a few times where swords strike didn't chain well and would leave you vulnerable to a counter attack. You can usually just slash and keep running but clusters of enemies and bosses recquire you to slow down (though with clusters you can try to just jump over them and forget about the survivors). Like mentionned above there's three sword style and you can parry and block attacks when you slow down.

Looks at the very least rental worthy.
 
8/10?? AWESOME!! This game's gonna totally rock the Wii perpetually! :D
 
Um, Nintendo Power almost always gives high scores to the Sonic games, at least from what I've seen. They gave Shadow an 8/10 too, and I hated that one.

Still too early for me to pass judgement, but I'm just saying is all.

I think they said it handled better than Shadow the Hedgehog... or did that I read that elsewhere?

Wow that's an awesome look!

Did you see all the references on the official site? Shining Force Delivery, Alex Kidd Importer and the Golden Axe Pub :p and that one poster with a sprite on it is probably another one.

So what's wrong with Silver's voice exactly? It sounds just like Trunks from DBZ. =P

Reminds me of the time when someone thought Sean Schemmel was voicing Sonic when Ryan Drummond was...

I think that's kind of the problem here. Except Trunks' voice fits. Silver's sounds like he's trying to hard. IMO anyway.
 
Silver's just a rude jerk. Have you played the Sonic Rivals games?

Please, stop spamming other members's profiles with nonsense questions. Not trying to be a mod, but it's annoying.
