The New Voices Behind Sonic and Tails [news]

AHH the forth wall! that was painful XD Eh ok theres an obivious problem with the voices. Tail is ok and better than alot of the previous versions but for me be'll only sound like the one in "The adventures of sonic the headgehog", i also wish they made him less techy. As for sonic, i could grow to like it but its still not as good as the Brawl version, man his blue balls really dropped in this one.... BUT! atleast the gameplay is looking promising in itself.

Definitely less annoying than the original voices. This game is really starting to get my interest. It's shaping up to look like the best Sonic game in a long time. Fingers crossed.

It looks and sounds like one of those 3D children's shows on Channel Five that broadcast on Saturday mornings.

Call me old fashioned, but I'd just prefer text dialogue.

Sonic's voice isn't bad, but it's hard to tell with such terrible material. I too think text is better, but not in a cg cutscene like this.

I'm not sure what I think about the voices. They certainly are... different.

But I think the dialogue is pretty terrible though.

It'll take some getting used to, but I think the new VAs are off to a good start.

If anyone missed it, Sonic does the moonwalk at 16 seconds in.

Also, the DS demo is now on the European Nintendo Channel!

Also, I kinda like the material. It's fun and silly. I especially like the 4th wall breakage. The writer has said that this isn't a scene he likes too much and that the rest of the cutscenes are much better.

This is going to get some getting used to. Sonic's voice is very weird and not sure if it is going to be better than Jason, but when I get the full game in a few weeks I will have to judge better than on one cut scene. I hope RCS has potential to bring Sonic to his age.

Tails' voice is probably the best I've heard it in the longest time. Since Sonic Adventure, he's been so cringeworthy. Sonic may take a bit more listening to to see if it suits, but it will probably click after not too long. Brawl Sonic sounded good actually, who was it who did his voice then?

The voice in Brawl was Jason Griffith, who did Sonic's voice in Sonic X and all the games from Rush to now. I did like his voice, but I preferred it in the games to the anime for some reason.

this voice is really good but its not anything like how sonic should be. its a good anime voice, but not a great sonic voice.

Give it time. In a few years we will be the same as we were when Jason took over the role from Ryan. This is just one scene of footage.

I still say they should've brought in Jaleel White.

8) maybe just all the other sonic games they still won't find an appropriate voice actor i bet money this is temporary and will want to change the voice actor again.....but hopefully they'll stick with someone that actually fits sonic and the rest for the sonic Cast

Sonic no longer sounds like a complete douche. Good stuff.

I quite like the sound of Sonics voice, will take a bit of time to adjust but I think it's a good change.
