Sonic movie is a tie-in to upcoming game plus plot details leaked!

[Sonicfan059]

Looks like some details got leaked about the upcoming Sonic movie and future game! Some notable tidbits from the article:

The team at Paramount has decided to write our own unique story that hasn't been used before in the franchise. This helps to not impede on our artistic freedom. Fans may anticipate a traditional origin story where Sonic comes from his own world but Sonic was not transported into the human world, he was always a part of the human world

the game will use the same character model for Sonic that has been shown from the movie leaks.

frame-rate will be capped at a solid 30fps with only minor drops during levels with water. Schmortega claims that Sega is no longer targeting 60fps as gamers only are interested in eye candy according to their internal surveys.

oh no

 

[RockmanBN]

Oh god no

 

[Kouriozan]

More dev/pub dropping 60FPS is really a sad news.
That Sonic model is already nightmare inducing so good luck marketing a game with it. And we thought Sonic Boom was bad.

April fool!

Mother of god...

Everything about this seems designed to piss people off.

 

[GeeseHoward]

Are we sure this isn't April Fools?

 

[ChaserX]

Yeah, this is my thought too. This line in particular is definitely a joke: "frame-rate will be capped at a solid 30fps with only minor drops during levels with water. "

 

[PKthndr]

This is very fake/10

 

[jman2050]

I thought threads for April Fools stories were banned?

Or was that the old place only? I don't remember.

Third, frame-rate will be capped at a solid 30fps with only minor drops during levels with water. Schmortega claims that Sega is no longer targeting 60fps as gamers only are interested in eye candy according to their internal surveys.

[Psyrgery]

Suuuuuure

 

[tiebreaker]

This is obviously April Fool's joke. But with Sonic, you never know!

 

[Video Games Are Dumb]

I dunno, the details here feel very specific about tech and vauge about game direction. I'm gonna stay skeptical about this one

 

[Sea lion]

How fucking hard is it sega, my Lord.

 

[MegaXZero]

For the love of all that's holy be an April fools joke

 

[Dusk Golem]

I'd say wait until after April Fools passes to make any threads about "news" coming out around the next 48 hours.

If you read the article, there's some very clear jokes within the text.
