It Will and Won’t Quite Be a Picnic
The UK website All About Games has the first glimmer of what to expect from a storyline in Sonic Generations.
In their preview, we learn how Sonic and company are warped through time–in something more reminiscent of Yogi Bear than Sonic, we learn the crew picked the wrong day to be out for a picnic:
At the start of the game, everyone is attending a picnic in honour of Sonic’s 20th, when all of a sudden a mysterious dark force intrudes and sends everyone, including our spiky blue protagonist, back in time. Sonic is finding a way to get himself and everyone else back to the present time and along the way he bumps into many familiar faces including his younger (albeit chubbier) self! The two Sonics team up and work together to save their friends once again.
The website calls said plot “cheesy,” but in reality it isn’t much different than the simplicity found in Sonic Colors–and it’s that simplicity that should keep classic Sonic fans especially pleased. There’s still no hint as to the supposed new foe Sonic will face.

All opinion. I’d say if you don’t like it, don’t use it. =P
But why the hateful tone instead of just saying you don’t care for it? o0???
Well Dr Eggman must Feel like he wasted a good 10 years of his life chasing a Mutant European Rodent that runs fast.
I feel bad for him now.
@ChaoticFox: Even more so than the kick?
@Sideshowshane
I thought Sonic was of the African species of Hedgie. o-o It’s sad that I’d know that. >.> lol
@Amuro
The WHAT!? 0.0 What is the kick you speak of!?
@FoxBoy: The sweep kick that Sonic randomly got in 2006 (even though you don’t need it because of the Homing Attack).
@Foxboy
Beccause I hate it. The hate may be my opinion, but it’s pointlessness is not. Sonic has a SPIN DASH ATTACK, he doesn’t need a rolling ability that grinds him to a complete stop just to break wooden boxes. He’s already been shown to burst through solid rock with a normal spin. Adding flames to it via pointless accessory was even dumber.
@Amuro
Worse than the kick, because at least that was optional.
@slideshowshayne: Since when was Sonic European. Sonic 1 said he was born on Chirstmas Island which in real life is a territory of Australia
And is everyone aging 5 years now? That makes Sonic 20, Tails 13, Knuckles 21, Amy 17, Cream 11, Blaze 19, Silver 19 and Rouge 23.
XD
Hey guys Sonic Generations won best platformer at gamescom 2011! It beat out Mario 3DS, Kirby, Rayman, etc. 0_o WOOHOO!!!! SONIC THE F*CKING HEDGEHOG FTW!!!!!!!!
Somehow, the age difference between Classic Amy and Modern Amy is beginning to make sense.
@ChaoticFox Sheesh man! first of all: i said nothing about the characters! second of all: i wasn’t even complaining, it was just my opinion. third of all: we just thought a picnic was a little unexpected. fourth of all: i’ve been thinking about the picnic and maybe it won’t so bad. fifth of all: perhaps our blue hero does need a break after what he’s been through.
Hedgehogs are European exclusive animals aren’t they?
@Renzy
What site did he win at?
@Sideshow: European, and African (the latter which Sonic is based on)
@sonichedgehog gamingxp.com. sorry I can’t put the link of the website up. I don’t kno how to do it on my iPod
@Renzy
Oh. GamingXP. I’ve seen that a while ago.
Now this is confusing me .
So is sonic Aussie, European, or African?
Sonic is based on the African pygmy hedgehog, if I recall correctly.
@amuro
OMG SONIC IS AFRICAN. -shot- xD
@SlideshowShayne & Amuro: I get it now. I thought you guys were talking about in-game
Haha. The notion that Sonic was based any particular hedgehog is so ridiculous. He barely looks like ANY hedgehog.
@X: Well, that’s what he’s based on. He doesn’t look like a hedgehog, but that’s what he’s based on. Deal with it.
@Amuro
“Deal with it”?
Bit dickish, are we
