Talk:Sonic Free Riders

Xbox 360 only?
K, I ain't happy.  Myself 123  21:15, June 14, 2010 (UTC)

I'm not too excited myself, Myself (I just love all the fun things I can say when talking to you), but the concept of the game is to use your body, and unless Nintendo comes up with something good, and/or Sony makes another EyeToy, were stuck going over to a friend's house and saying "Hey, can I use your Xbox 360?"

-SalaComMander

I would, but I've never done it before so I don't know how. Anyway, I guess we know why they've called it Sonic Free Riders.  Myself 123  21:34, June 14, 2010 (UTC)

Done, I reckon.  Myself 123  21:39, June 14, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you are you an admin on another site?  Myself 123  21:42, June 14, 2010 (UTC)

All right I was wondering how you knew.  Myself 123  21:48, June 14, 2010 (UTC)

Wait, so you're an admin on other wikis? How are you not qualified here?

-SalaComMander

I never saw "XBox360 exclusive" anywhere.--Kagi mizu -Seeya 'round ~ 23:32, June 14, 2010 (UTC)

@Murphyshane

Ok, I guess that makes sense

@Kagimizu

You really didn't look hard at all.

-SalaComMander

@Kagimizu: You need the Kinect to play the game. And Kinect is only used for the XBox 360. Sonic &amp; Scrab  Master

I'm pissed off to. What about those who only have Nintendo systems? Oh well, maybe they'll make one where u can use the Wii balnce board. Metatknight 321

Not gonna happen. Too much motion control for Wii.

-SalaComMander

YESSS
YESS!

unlike some of us, I am veeery exited about this :)

cause i only have 360.. XD

I know my family has enough. My parents are going to buy Kinect to buy Kinetcimals for my sister, and I'll use my money to buy Free Riders. I'm home most of the time, so I'll get many chances to play. Sonic &amp; Scrab  Master

LOL I'm so exited with this announcement! But Mighty is right, linekt must cost ALOTSENATORSILVER 14:26, June 16, 2010 (UTC)

Storm is confirmed. And we don't know for sure if Kinect is required, but we know that it's the suggested method.

-SalaComMander

Vat!? Only for ze XBox 360!? This is abomination! (XD) But, anyways, I guess I'll have to stare at Youtube for a while when the game comes out...  KHGenesis651  SUPER NOVA  01:40, June 23, 2010 (UTC)

New Sonic Riders Characters

 * What if E-123 Omega, Metal Sonic, Marine the Raccoon, Shade the Echidna, Tikal the Echidna, Chaos 0, Cosmo the Seedrian, Big the Cat, Chip "Light Gaia", Chaotix (Espio the Chameleom, Vector the Crocodille, and Charmy Bee), Eggman Nega and others appear ?

Any Question?

I doubt most of them, but they would all be awesome.

-SalaComMander

This question is both stupid and irrelevent if you ask me. Sonic &amp; Scrab  Master

Hey, this is neither stupid nor irrelevant. There's no such thing as a stupid question, and since he's asking our opinions about whether or not we would like these characters to appear in Sonic Free Riders, it becomes completely relevant. -SalaComMander

Wii game

 * Sonic Free Riders is not going to be in the Wii, and its going have Mii? Why?

It's not for Wii, if you insist of asking such questions, then at least read the article first.  Myself 123  16:03, June 18, 2010 (UTC)

To good to be true? (My opinion)
Aside from being officially confirmed (which I haven't heard), they've been in every Sonic Riders game so far.

-SalaComMander

Yeah, he's not official, it's just some jerk making stupid edits.

-SalaComMander

To be honest, that would be kinda cool in my opinion if Big was playable in this game. Sonic &amp; Scrab  Master

Just so long as he doesn't talk, Big's new voice is the only one I absolutely despise.

-SalaComMander

One Problem....
I'm sure he'll still have a Bike in this one, but they're gonna hve to get creative to figure out how to control it with Kinect.

-SalaComMander

He does backflips.

-SalaComMander

Play the first Sonic Riders, Peform a trick and pull back.

QUESTION


This is from the first, and it's edited.  Myself  123  20:49, June 23, 2010 (UTC)

Kinect Only?
Anyone have any news if this is compatible with standard 360 controllers too? I don't want to buy Kinect, but I really want Sonic Free Riders. --Halofighter92 00:46, June 25, 2010 (UTC)

odds are your gonna have to buy Kinect sooner or later, because alot of games that are gonna be released in the future will use kinect-14sonicstar-/[Digital overload]/.http

2 good reasons why I am against Kinect.
 * Ever since Wii came out, sick of games trying to get me to get up and be active and stuff. If I wanted to exersize, I would go out of the house or something (Or play WiiFit). Whatever happen to being able to pull off the epic with just a simple control pad in your hands? A keyboard is fine too.
 * I have a low ceiling, that and I am tall. Not only will I be bumping my head a lot jumping but also be making a noise that the neighbours might not like.

I had confidence that like SR0G, that while a new method of gameplay will be introduce it would still be playable with previous controls. Since I play SR0G (and Brawl) with my trusty GameCube controller.

These "active" methods of game control we have today, while a clever new way to play games, but haven't really considered the home of the players in advance.--Mystic Monkey  sez 00:24, July 11, 2010 (UTC)

Not to mention they just overall aren't as effective as a controller. -SalaComMander

Yeah. I believe that these days, game producers are concentrating on features but keep forgetting who these features are for. I noticed this happening for a while now. For example I rented Transformers: War for Cybertron because it's review boasted loads of good features like being able to design your own transformer. However because my XBox 360 is not set up with XBox: Live (I dunno much about it nor how to set it up properly, heard I need to buy it.) it means I cannot use any of the nice features or unlockables at all. Despite all the fun it promises, all I can do is play in story mode. Another example is Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles which looks all well and nice, but it's really more for friends and team work and those playing alone will rapidly get bored.

Features are all well and nice but utterly stupid to the players who can't use them. Producers should consider every player than just presume everyones console is online or live thus limit it down to those who have it while those who don't have the these online features are not playing the games to there full potential.--Mystic Monkey  sez 22:18, July 16, 2010 (UTC)

Chaotix?!
Chaotix are awesome....case closed.

Communism

 * Having to play it by Kinect, even if you cannot do much jumping due to limited space or noises.
 * Despite SR0G for Wii, you could play with GameCube controls. Also living in an apartment, I can't make much noise. This game should allow XBox pad play.


 * Having to get XBox Live to buy the game, even if you don't have the internet or cannot set up the connection.
 * I myself can probably set it up Wi-Fi, I am not sure how. Also XBox Live has a yearly subscription. This is optional but having it having such exclusive games would make the choice enforced.
 * I was also expecting that as a game to buy in the shops, there can be package deals to bundle the Kinect with the game.

I dunno much about politics but thats kinda like communism isn't it? In order for Sonic fans to play SFR, they have to give Microsoft power and money (Like they didn't have enough of that). Yeah I might be silly since what difference is this to Wii Shop Channel? Well Wii offers free internet services to those who have internet as well as the point system being a currency exchange only so that seems fair. I guess I am also wigging out at this because I don't really know how to set my XBox to work online. But while I admit I can afford the yearly subscription, it does sound a bit of social control.--Mystic Monkey  sez 21:22, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

Dr. Eggman and E-10000
Hi, I noticed that there was a recent addition of unconformed characters to the list of playable characters, while it seems that they were removed, I still see both Dr. Eggman and E-10000 as playable characters, is this confirmed? I have not heard any info about characters apart form the ones seen in the E3 demo and I want to be sure that this isn't just speculation. 74.70.209.222 16:11, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

E-10000 Has been confirmed, and considering that he's a Eggman robot, it seems likely that he will appear too.  Myself  123  16:20, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks, I did some research and I found some footage that confirms Dr. Eggman for sure as well Do you want me to cite it as a source? 74.70.209.222 17:27, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah sure.  Myself  123  17:37, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Lock this page to new and unregistered contributors
I recall that we do that to games that are still in development in order to avoid vandalism right? Well now would be a good time to enforce that policy.Jacktheinfinite101 17:48, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

It's been done, I've also blocked that user for a week, It really bugs me when people outright ignore me.  Myself  <font color="Black">123  17:45, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. Don't let him get to you, he's just looking to cause some trouble. Jacktheinfinite101 17:48, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

O.k. Thank you.  Myself  <font color="Black">123  17:50, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

Plot
Okay, what about plot? Any suggestions about what it might be about, or any confirmed details?--Wh!te$tar 02:52, September 4, 2010 (UTC)

Gaah!
What's that freaky blue thing!? and were did it come from?
