Chances are the game will not be this epic.

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> i wanted mario tennis and we get this? .... okay, i'm going to pretend this doesn't exist and still hold out for the mario tennis announcment.

essko

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @Q27: In the US universe. Around Sonic Adventure they started doing what the Japanese games had always done--he's not Robotnik over there, he's Eggman.

Aresef

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> I'd like to track down the idiot who greenlighted this turd, get them to cancel it, and make a JSRF sequel. And Shenmue III while they're at it. In fact, most of the characters on the lineup in that trailer deserve a better game of their own.

Aresef

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @Pietepiet:
Actually, I remember Eggman being a nickname Sonic used. Robotnik is his real name.

Q27

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @jettokisora:
I thought that was really cool.

Q27

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> One more chance Sega, one more chance. I hate you because I'll buy it. And I'll try and love it. And you'll let me down like you always do. Then we'll split up again and I swear I won't take you back this time.

TearsandScreams

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @ParadoxControl: Eggman was the Japanese name for Dr. Robotnik. He was then called "Eggman" as a sort of joke in Sonic Adventure 1, and since Sonic Adventure 2 Sonic Team decided to just get rid of the silly differences and stick to Dr. Eggman, with Robotnik being his surname.

Pietepiet

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Why the hell do they call him Dr. Eggman? Seriously? Because I always remember him being called Robotnik. The TV show called him that, and im pretty sure that all the Genesis games called him that as well.

ParadoxControl

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Looks awesome. I'm excited.

It's funny how people seem to think this is absolute shit, yet if it was starring Mario it would be amazing.

Pietepiet

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Ulala: the love of my life is still as sexy as ever.

The Dark Defender

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> That looks rubbish and quite Shiiiite.

Why can't someone make a game about the Wonder Twins.
"Wonder Twin powers activate. Shape of an Eagle. Shape of Water."

Oh I get it now, it was crap back then as well. One can morph into any animal, and the other can morph into the various states of water. What a killer duo.

sauvage

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @kevinski: How the hell can you hate Sonic? I mean, I hate his recent games, but I love the character.

UnJamma6096

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @kevinski: If you're going to pass on this game just because Sonic's in it, you weren't going to buy it in the first place.

Lightguy

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Quite a lot of those shots were clearly out. They needn't have put so much effort into getting them.

Lightguy

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Mmm please give me more JSR. Best goddamn CD I ever bought. Even people who don't know what the game is jive when it appears on the shuffle at parties.

Mattz

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> The graphics look goddamn amazing as well. I must say. That's the best Sonic's looked in a while. The only disappointing one was Ulala. I can only hope Beat's appearance means there's another Jet Set Radio game on the Wii.

cmoody17

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> If the game was actually THAT intense, I wouldn't be able to say no. Too bad it's pretty much going to suck. Back, forth, back, forth. Point. Character says one of five witty lines, and spins in a circle in place as celebration. Yay...

cmoody17

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> That was super epic.

serotoninzero

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> I would say Team Mario would win simply because Team Sonic (in the is video anyway) keeps overshooting the field as well as returning balls clearly heading for the out of bounds area.

questworld

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @kevinski: o.O.............................................................. Sonic may have had his ups and downs....but I believe your the first person who I have ever heard say that they "hate" him.

d1sCo_d3aTh

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> You know, I was expecting it, but man...seeing Sonic toward the end of the video just killed it for me. I honestly hate that character. He's just a steaming pile of crap anymore. I'll probably pass on this solely because he's in it. I really didn't realize that I could be so disgusted by his appearance that it'd result in me passing up a game with Ulala in it.

kevinski

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> btw... Sonic games have some quailty CG cutscene but sucky gameplay, hopefully this one's not.

rich8606

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @Ultrasinc: The European team who made VT3 or the Japanese team who made VT2? Cuz VT3 is inferior compared to VT2.

rich8606

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> How can this thing suck? It's made by the Virtua Tennis team. They rule!

And with decend ball hitting skills, if you can make it to the ball no matter where it is, you'll never lose. So Team Sonic wins!

Ultrasinc

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> This Game is like 8 years too late, This would have been Awesome on the Dreamcast. Full price for this is not justifiable, I already have wii sp0rts, It might be worth it for $10-$15 aS A Downloadable. & yes, I am a Sega Fanboy.

SpuddOner

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Frankly I think it looks amazing, I'm responding toany negative comments :P

themule

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> This game is looking great and all, but where are my Skies of Arcadia characters? I'd love to see Vyse bust out some Cutlass Furies on some unsuspecting Sega characters.

THECapedCaper

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Look at all those dead franchises!

Kyle81

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @Raziel3333: In 1993. ;) Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine was basically Puyo Puyo in Sonic garb.

RPGuy

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> It's so "cool" to diss SEGA nowadays, but truth be told:

1. It's SONIC TEAM that sucks, not SEGA.
2. SEGA + Tennis = win AFAIK
3. Come on, this trailer was awesome.

WiNG

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> The classic sonic noises make me yearn for the days long past of my childhood years. =[...

R1co281

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Where the fuck is Seaman and Shenmue!?

UnJamma6096

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> It doesn't matter if you win or lose, as long as you murder Dr. Eggman with a burning tennis ball.

Krytha

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> I'd like to see House of the Dead's "G" and the Dayton Car as hidden characters.

Karoshi

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Where is Ash from PSO and Ryo Hazuki? Maybe secret characters?

Doomstink

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> all I have to say is
JET GRIND RADIOOOOOOOOOO!

PotoinMan

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Thank God Sonic didn't talk.

Nevertheless, nothing more than another stupid cash in that will only sell because of stupid little children, or very desperate Sonic faithfuls.

GuardianEarth128

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @Torrent: No, they show a preference towards catering to the widest possible base, which understands basic, well-known images.

Moonshadow101

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Great trailer. But why are they still using those SHITTY ass tennis rackets pre-1975? They really look tacky and show Sega's (and a lot of other developer's) lack of tennis knowledge.

Lake Somerset

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @PooPooKaKaBumBum: How can you be sad when this game includes FLAG MAN!

[www.ukresistance.co.uk]

hahnchen

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Will look forward to.

Green-clad Gamer Dude

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> I cant belive a Shenmue Character is not on this.

My faith in the 3rd installment coming out is decreasing...

theboyfrombrasil

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Tennis courts with loopty-loops and spring jumps? Well, anything to recreate what Sonic is used to. Also, Dr. Eggman feels to me like a Waluigi spoof in Mario Tennis.

Hey, I've got a plan, my team of dying characters and ideas! Lets shove all OUR characters into an epic brawl of extreme TENNIS! It's so original, and what other Wii sport game out there can compete? Right?! Right?. Oh Right...

King Seafoam

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Seems like I am one of the few, but this trailer brought a smile to my face.

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @Elixir: I hope that was in jest, if not thats the dumbest troll comment I've seen.

Irenicus-the one and only

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> but the monkeys are OUT OF THEIR BALLS
THATS LIKE DIVIDING BY ZER--

Gantz: Your Trusted Friend in Science.

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> The trailer's just a touch melodramatic, don't you think?

devomania

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> OMFG YES!

A Sonic game without his shitty voice acting/dialogue, shitty generic rock music and shitty friends! YEAH!

jkingsowner

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> just because it looks like super mario tennis it doesnt meen it will beat it... (known to Sega's crappy standard lately they wont)

maiky-nisute

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @PooPooKaKaBumBum: Orrrrrrrrr, you could look at it the way it's most likely being positioned - as a way of reviving interest in these characters for possible future titles?

And for all the elitist "hurr, all non-2D Sonic games suck," you can go straight to hell. My 5-year-old son adores Sonic Adventure 1, 2, and Shuffle and recognized every character from this trailer (except Amigo), and when I showed him the video, he got more and more excited with each reveal. On top of that, he's a tennis game fiend (Wii Tennis, Virtua Tennis), and he is going to have a blast with this game. And I'm going to have a blast playing it with him.

V1L3

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> The fact that Beat and Ulala are in a tennis game and not in new iterations of their own franchises just makes me more and more annoyed.

PooPooKaKaBumBum

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Watching this just reinforces in my mind how utterly irrelevant Sega is becoming.

Moonshadow101

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Wow these guys are good at making trailers O.o.. I've always love Mario Tennis games, I guess this will be good.. I hope..

Katorok

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> It actually doesn't look that bad, course I'd rather see a cross over fighter or adventure game with these characters...

BassForever

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Beat?! Sweet. If SEGA ever decided to make another Jet Set Radio that would make me so happy.

Guagloves

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @GUNDAM-RX-78-2: Tell you what.. in that clip if they made a console sonic 2d game with graphics like that I would be all over that... Sonic Rush needs a upgrade to a console please!

xpnet

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> oh awesome, i can't wait to not be able to do any of this in the actual game.

xbulletholes

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Am I the only one who's hoping that Toejam and Earl make an appearance?

spiderweb1986

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> To everyone criticizing Sega, you should criticize Sonic Team and their franchises instead. Sega's been releasing damn good games like Virtua Tennis, Virtua Fighter, Condemned and the Total War series for awhile, so no need to keep criticizing. Hell, even The Club looks like it's going to be a shooter beyond any other.

Ashurahori

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Four rackets?? Eggman: the cheapest character confirmed.
Anyway, this looks like it could be a fun little title.


Sheetman

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> omg that looks so awesome

The guys at UKResistance are going to wet themselves. And with good reason. Please don't fuck this one up sega

NecronomiconUK

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Yeah I'm also trying to figure out why this game is rated E with mild blood O_o

ubernocrono

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @Maldron: Same.

Candlejack

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @Irenicus-the one and only: Do you honestly expect them to release this on the PS3, moreover, do you honestly expect anyone to release anything on the PS3?

Elixir

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> They bitch because it has sonic in it, they would bitch if it didn't have sonic in it. 2d Sonic died with the technology. Get over it.

vagrantwade

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> *sigh* I've always liked "Robotnik" better.

Maldron

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Looks like fun.

Gentleben-Nintendo Club Star Whore

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Yep, this is definitly not a Sonic alone tennis game, but of course, can't have a Sega character mash game without him.

Wow, that mexican monkey is weird, and I love how Dr. Eggman pulls a Doc Ock with tennis rackets, only to be killed by Sonic.

Ashkihyena

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> If the dead horse coughs up loads of money, beat it some more...

Takamoto

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Hmmm..I don't really know what to make of this. Part of me thinks this is interesting because Sega is finally bringing out the characters many non-gamers won't know, but the other part is me wanting to scream out at Sega to to tell them to stop trying to be the counter to Mario. Face it. Sonic will never be bigger than Mario and when Sega gets that through their thick skulls they could probably show us some games that will make us drop our jaw's in disbelief, rather sigh in annoyance.

dot_root

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Hmm interesting I wonder why Alex Kidd is not in there. He was announced as a playable character.

Bluejuan85

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Beat and Ulala are the only things selling me on this right now.

JarenFace

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @Skitzoap:
If you think that's the case now, wait until Samba De Amigo comes out for the wii! (I can't wait)


Strahd414

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> What the hell is eggman smiling about?

Esupio

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> I particularly enjoyed the classic "hitting Robotnik" sound effect that played when he got pegged by the tennis ball.

RocketDarkness

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @GUNDAM-RX-78-2:

I honestly got shivers.

RageKage

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @Skitzoap: what are you talking about! im getting that monkey on my boxer shorts, and am going to tell girls to come play with my maracas!

burningranger01

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @GUNDAM-RX-78-2: yeah! takes me back..^^

burningranger01

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @jmb8504: It's true. It seems the only thing Sega's gotten better at over the years is making trailers. NiGHTS has some awesome CG openers, Sonic and the Secret Rings has good stuff, and now this game.

I loved when Amigo was running though. Hilarious. Also, Aiai's eyes are creepy >_>

Mit

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @WalletMan: I would have to agree with you on the whole FPS thing. Not that I hate um, but I am not one for a genre that has not changed much or brought to the table like the several past years of Japanese gaming has(1984-2002). I must say Sega dose not have its early track record of awesome games but they are not cookie cutter games either(except for this tennis game lol)

burningranger01

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Needs more Virtua Fighter characters... although regardless, I dont see this being any good. I mean come ON

Sam Smith

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Man did anybody else feel nostalgic hearing the Sonic spin charge and watching him run through the loop. Ahh simpler times...

GUNDAM-RX-78-2

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Please SEGA, don't make this another sucky game.

Candlejack

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> So sonic games on console have been sucking, yeah thy have, but I got to say 4 little fun tennis game featuring some classic faces, it looks cool. Love that monkey!!
but where are Phantasy star and burning rangers characters??

burningranger01

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> What an incredible trailer! Man, they're making a huge statement by making it all characters that most people don't know, but SEGA fans will love. It almost feels like they don't care about trying to compete with the big guys anymore, because the idiots in this country will always just buy the popular FPS that we're all supposed to like anyways. Maybe now they'll just make great games for people who don't suck ass.

WalletMan

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Sweet Christ, that Mexican monkey is going to haunt my dreams D:

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @pusheject: It is ? Oh god no :(

Irenicus-the one and only

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> I never really liked Nintendo's sport games e.g Mario Strikers, Mario hoops 3on3 and so on. But this actually got me pumped. I will totally buy this

sand

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @Irenicus-the one and only:
?
it's coming out for 360, PS3, Wii, DS and PS2 i believe. that's what this eurogamer says anyway
[www.eurogamer.net]

yeah im looking forward to it just for beat and gum, . plus sega are tennis pros... virtua tennis

push eject

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> If this movie is anything like the actual game, then I expect to have a lot of fun running outside the boundaries of the court!

RealmRPGer

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @Raziel3333: I hear noone complaining about the half dozen Mario Kart games, the dozen Mario Party games, or the "upgrades" to golf, tennis, soccer, etc. If they were really whoring him out, the title would've been called Sonic Superstar Tennis.

If they get the Wiimote swinging right, this'll be really fun. BTW, anyone else know what other characters they could get in there(besides the Sonic ones though)?

Furysetzer

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> I was wondering why a tennis game would be rated everyone 10+ until I saw the end of the movie where Sonic murders Eggman with that hypersonic tennis ball (all that was missing was a spreading pool of blood next to Eggman's outstretched hand and racquet).

Game looks decent though if it really does involve all those crazy 'outside the court' maneuvers and stuff that they showed in the trailer. If it's just a reskinned virtua tennis though I'll pass.

the-hypnotoad

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> @Raziel3333: Dr. Sonic's been operating on me for years.

@Strangelove: Agreed. That's the only Sega series I still care about. Unless they go back to 2D sonic.

bangbangblah

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> This obsession with mascot games has got to end. What's next? Marvel Super Heroes VS. Harvest Moon: Gardening Death Decathlon?

Why can't they just make a new Virtua Tennis?

Strangelove

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> oh so now Sonic is offically a money "B*tch" entirely like Mario now huh? so when can i expect Dr. Sonic?

The Vampire Raziel

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> You guys are harsh. I got excited when I heard the classic Sonic sound effects. :P

jettokisora

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> Why are these games never as interesting as their teaser trailers?

jmb8504

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> We got beat (JSRF,) but we get him in a game I think most of us don't care about. Also the rest of the characters are poor, Sonic is a no brainer but nights and eggman and blah.

Oh and thanks Sega for not releasing this on PS3, the 360 and Wii can keep it :)

Irenicus-the one and only

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> I wonder if they know how to play tennis without trying to smash it around the world?

GoddessVesta

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> :|

EnigmaNemesis

]]> <![CDATA[Sega Superstar Tennis Debut Trailer]]> No voice acting so far, I'd consider that a good sign. I really love the characters, Sega knows how to do tennis games so hopefully they don't screw this one up.
