[@30subber]

I'm going to break my disc of Sonic Boom too! Thanks for the idea Wiiviewr!

[@KingRutnTutn]

@30subber did you actually break it, if so do you regret it 9 years later?

[@jdfalcon08]

Sonic Boomed. Sonic Boomed. He failed to save the planet from disaster. Sonic Boomed Sonic Boomed.

[@Hylianguy38]

You were hyped? We screw you Complain on the internet We're show you It's all right Take a stance Tell Big Red Button they failed That's what you should do When you use your mind Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom(Why can't you run any faster?) Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom(This game is such a disaster) Through the wall Through a glitch Leaving gamers gasped in awe Throw the game in a ditch Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom(Why can't you run any faster?) Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom(This game is such a disaster) Sonic Boom Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom(Big Red Button, don't touch Sonic!) Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom, Sonic Boom

[@ciciizo1193]

*Applauds* Congrats, you've put more effort into that than the developers have for the game :D

[@Neverknot47]

Good to see you're still doing this. Have a happy new year!

[@skx444]

Lil wiiviewer has been watching SCYKOH :)

[@321SPONGEBOLT]

You broke it. I never saw you do that before.

[@TheLaurendogz]

At least the tv show is good...

[@Falcovsleon21]

::sigh: Yeah Big Red Button really screwed us over with this. I have no clue how SEGA's going to make up for this disaster considering what happened the last time a Sonic game this bad was released.

[@Nicholas_Steel]

>Wants to play the game normally >Accidentally glitches the game >Reloads earlier save game and then repeats the same glitch > Gets frustrated and continues the game after performing the glitch Oh also, you missed the ever obvious clue that everything is colour coded (You needed Tails for the yellow door, Knuckles for the red one etc.)

[@Groudon0199]

These glitches are sounding more and more like freak occurrences every time I hear about them. That, or I had the luckiest run of anyone and encountered very, very few of them. That door thing is a good example, and I'm pretty sure the Littlest Wiiviewer saw a video on the infinite jump glitch which you'll probably never encounter by accident. The rail thing, I have no idea how that could've happened, and I can't picture it at all. Also, there's a map option on the pause menu, though it doesn't show you what direction you're facing.

[@VicGeorge2K6]

Sonic Boom met its sonic doom.

[@Bossness932]

wiiviewer is a beast

[@NEXSNRG]

Skip to 6:28 for a condensed version of this review. I always enjoy your bad reviews because your comments tend to be really funny. I laughed a lot during your review of Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer; that was the first review I watched and kept me coming back for more. It seems like you need a new category: Avoid like the plague. Also, I'm curious if you're planning on reviewing Bayonetta 2. It seems like the only major Wii U game for 2014 you haven't reviewed yet; I wanted to see your take on it.

[@volcanosauce00]

I thought you would have reviewed Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker by the end of the year.

[@Mx._Jess]

if you look closely you can see that he actually broke a blank disc, which I guess is what he was doing with his hands right before (switching out the disk). it gets the point across though so that's all that matters.

[@wiiviewer]

Yes, that is true. I was renting the game. 😁

[@josephfarris5744]

Sonic Boom: Rise of the Broken Disc

[@55robloxmaster]

The sequel.

[@HIKAJO]

That first rant about the loops applies to most sonic games so it doesn't really matter because it is not strange to see loops in a sonic game, trust me.

[@KevinAnimalCrossing]

Dude! You're so close to 50000 subs!

[@Woodenfan]

Oh, Sonic Boom. A poor man's Lego game. A VERY poor man's Lego game. Ironically, the Lego games cost less, are MUCH more immersive in the world they made, and are just overall FUN!

[@Ementopcool]

Lego games are way better.

[@Woodenfan]

Yeah, it was a mistake comparing the two. Just finished another session of Lego Batman 3. I had to turn off DirectX11 for it, but the gameplay is faaantastic :)

[@Panda-xb5mf]

Merry Christmas!!!!

[@CameraMan9258]

That really was a SNAP review :P

[@galactica1981]

Wow! That's the first time I've seen a review where the reviewer actually destroyed the game disc!

[@DrMadd]

Wait was that actually the game or just a random dvd? Also I don't think this game is the worst ever. To me it''s just one of those bad movie/tv licensed games that used to plague game systems before they were banished to the depths of the app store. But this game seems to be getting a lot more hate due to it being a sonic game without people realizing that this is a tv tie in game to the new tv show sonic boom. I feel that putting the Sonic name on this game was it's biggest problem because it promised people a certain level of quality setting their expectations way to high.

[@Ementopcool]

Good point.

[@SirApathetic]

You can see after he breaks it the top part of the disc. It's not the Sonic Boom disc. He switched discs when he brought the Sonic Boom disc off-screen, right before he breaks it.

[@DrMadd]

SirApathetic Yeah I figured as much I was just curious.

[@joethemanager1]

According to the title, he got the game off of the eshop. So, it's probably a fake disc. But if he had the game on disc anyway, he'd probably still break it.

[@sirmel11]

Oh my god he actually broke it. I thought he was going to in my head as a joke but he actually did it. Wtf dude!

[@sirmel11]

I thought he would do something like that but I didn't care that much

[@wiiviewer]

Ryan Neely Yup. :) It still was an awful mess picking up all those shards of CD tho.

[@streled5361]

He broke a generic CD, not the Sonic Boom disk.

[@redwolf48845]

Is my WiFi not working, or is the game's framerate THIS BAD??

[@videogamefan9637]

It's bad but it partially improved in the patch. Still a bad game

[@BendyPenguin64]

Snap judgement reviews. I missed these. :)

[@mintreviews]

That was so funny! Remember that this game isn't exclusive to the Wii U eShop so you might want to take it out of the title.

[@wiiviewer]

That was a mistake. I fixed it. Thanks

[@thomasstodghilliv]

What are you going to review next? LB3? Bayonetta? Skylanders: Trap Team?

[@adamkingofficial]

They should add a sonic boom road track because it just makes perfect sense, it an exclusive game, and the roads have loops like the gravity mechanic.

[@Ementopcool]

I just hope the next Sonic game will be better then Colors and Generations.

[@charliep7112]

Sonic Mania's out, hope's back. There's also forces, but who cares, Sonic Mania is the revival.

[@MyEcho4]

you broke the disk...on youtube...where millions of people are watching.....kudos to you grasshopper

[@Kirbysuperstar44]

Are you going to review Meme Run?

[@fatmac5022]

It's just I've got to run with memes and it costs 5 bucks.

[@Cokepencilpsd]

THOSE BLUE ARMS CAUSE SENSORY OVERLOADS IN ME!

[@jaymartinez55]

Wow can't believe you broke it. If you still have the reset you could have exchange it for a better game.

[@klaura6799]

It's just as much fun as flushing your money away xD

[@n0k4stu3es4]

If you pay close attention, I'm fairly sure he picked up a different disc and broke that one instead of Sonic Boom. If I had to hazard a guess, I'd say the one he broke is one of those blank recordable discs (I'm not sure if that's the right word, english is not my main language... Sorry if it isn't.).

[@wiiviewer]

***** :)

[@ThunderTheBlackShadowKitty]

Nah, the disc he broke was probably a copy of Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz or Pets: Crazy Monkeyz, LOL!

[@DoctorMinjinx]

That wasn't the game. It wasn't even a wii u game, Just a basic disc

[@anxietyattheeverywhere8616]

I'm pretty sure you needed to find a blue door.

[@JosieC84]

Sounded like the developers rushed it and got it out of the way. Let's hope they'll have DLC and patches to fix it up.

[@AGENTE4777]

Damn, Wiiviewr!!! Not even Ninja Breadman got his disk broken, was ut really that bad?

[@livenator8119]

Can I ask a Question. Will you be doing your annual top 10 best & worst games of the years as normal? Moreover, is this the worst Wii U game yet?

[@KevinAnimalCrossing]

I also wonder about those question, I'll try to ask him on the livestream.

[@wiiviewer]

Oh yeah. It's my next videos.

[@livenator8119]

Sweet.

[@reversalmushroom]

Have you seen the Game Grumps play this?

[@autosaver]

Game is pretty bad but on the point of navigation - there's a map you can use on the pause menu that will tell you the exact location of where you need to go.

[@Shadsilvson11]

Man, this game has sorely let me down. I was open to the idea of trying something new, and God help me I WANTED this game to be good. I was hoping being able to play as Tails, Knuckles and Amy for the first time in forever would be an insta-sell for me, but when the game turns out to be this badly glitched it makes me sad to see how SEGA could let another Sonic 06 happen again, except even that game could be considered bad in a guilty-pleasureish kinda way, this just looks frustratingly bad. SEGA, please just let us have Sonic Adventure 3 already, or Sonic 4 Episode III, or Sonic Generations 2 or at least something that works.

[@Shadsilvson11]

***** Maybe so, but it still seems the damage was already done.

[@Daniel-bl7hu]

Tom, what do you think of Sonic Boom Rise of Lyric? Is it bad, is it good or is it a mixed bag? Would you like to talk to me please?

[@lightyearpig12]

Actually, Sonic 4 Episode 3 has been cancelled. This is why the fanbase is a legitimate threat to the franchise.

[@JimRaynorRaider]

Shadsilvson11 nothing and i mean nothing can beat sonic 06 in shitty sonic game. NOTHING

[@Shadsilvson11]

***** After playing this game I can safely say that I found a lot more to enjoy in Sonic 06 than I did in this.Maybe objectively Sonic 06 has more flaws, but I'd rather play something laughably bad than frustratingly bad.

[@SunkythePootis]

Oh wow even the wiiviewer doesn't like sonic boom rise of lyric....shessh looks like the yellow orb won this year for the "Random game based on a tv show based on a game" deal. Way to go ex-naughty dog developers or should i say ex-naughty dog designers (yeah turns out these ex naughty dog people are just the people who did the designs for this game) you made sonic's reception back to the pre-2010 days unless sonic team makes the next modern sonic game as good as lost mayr- world, colours and generations.

[@Robscurity]

Will Ferrell is that you?

[@s2325]

At least it's not port of Amiga game with same title.

[@ZetZatar]

I beat the whole game with only getting one random glitch (minor one). Actually enjoyed it quite a bit.

[@UltraPrimeHunter]

Why does it say wiiu eshop? should there be a '\'?

[@wonderchickens]

Did you really have to break it?

[@crappygut6448]

The 2nd disc that you actually broke

[@ink1931]

#bouncepads

[@MABfan11]

it's Sonic 06 all over again

[@Hylianguy38]

That is just sad. From watching the trailers and how different it was going to be as a spinoff not made by Sonic Team., I thought it was going to be interesting. But when I saw the title as part of Wikipedia's "List of video games notable for negative reception," I was surprised, and then I watched the reviews of the game, and I was disappointed. It was clear that Sega and/or Big Red Button were hyping up this game, especially with the Sonic Boom cartoon show(Which I actually like.) that coincide with the release of the game. Maybe Sonic Team can make the next big Sonic game a success and not let Big Red Button develop a possible sequel.

[@jamesheatherly4209]

Those of you who had the unfortunate experience of playing Sonic 06.If you thought that game was bad, then you have absolutely not played this game.

[@partymonster411]

why the focus on the eshop?

[@crazykid1092]

It was an accident.

[@evangelian007]

I don't think Sonic Boom should be considered a Sonic game. It shouldn't be considered to be even a game either. It's just an instrument of torture. Even looking at the game cover makes me depressed. Good thing the cartoon is pretty decent.

[@Nonjola]

Why do so many people call Lyric a lizard? I mean he's a snake.

[@drewshaffer12]

do you put any effort at all into your reviews or no? it seems like i could make it in 2 minutes

[@dreamerofchaos1]

I already knew the game was far from perfect, but geez, come on, there has to be SOMETHING good about it, it can't be all crap. I understand all the problems, I see the issues, I know it's not anywhere near what a good game quality should be, but really, is there anything positive to be said about it? Can anyone think of just one thing that was done right?

[@superlemonadegamer9354]

You want something good out of this horrid game? The Voice acting, or if you want a good sonic boom game, go get shattered Crystal for the 3DS

[@dreamerofchaos1]

SuperLemonadeGamer If I can ever get some more time or money on my hands, I just might, anything to see this world presented well in a game. Seriously, I've fallen in love with the show, this is a world I want to explore and run through, but alas, it's just not done that way. I'm just that one annoying person that tries to find something positive in every game they play, and sometimes I get a little frustrated when no one even gives the damn thing a chance. I get it, the game isn't good, I should know, as I own Rise of Lyric, I've played it, hell I was one of the suckers that preordered, but to hear someone out there that didn't completely bash on it is refreshing and it made me feel better about the fact that I haven't tried to pawn it off on someone else. It's been destroyed enough by every single reviewer out there to the point where I think it's time to look at the game again with a fresh set of eyes, now that all the grievances have been aired. It's bad at first glance and doesn't get much better, but I'd like to see someone actually search for something good in this game, go below the surface, ya know?

[@superlemonadegamer9354]

dreamerofchaos1 But there isn't much good about this game, I do want Sonic Team themselves to take this Adventure/Heroes Hyrbrid formula and make another SA2, but for now, the concept was good at first but at the end of the day, it was bad.

[@dreamerofchaos1]

SuperLemonadeGamer Unfortunately it didn't work out, but hey, we can always believe that perhaps the next game has a better chance. They've made some mistakes, they've hopefully learned from them, and now we can go onto the next game with low enough expectations that anything will be better than this. I'd like to see another game like that too. Even though I've never had the chance to play them, because I got into the series a bit too late, I love what I've heard about them, it'd be so cool to see that sort of thing again.

[@ScarfMezzo]

They picked out a nice font for the subtitles.

[@DracoBudSmith]

That sad moment when it is the only game in a long time that you could play as other characters besides Sonic and it have to sucked... *sigh*

[@mgaspernico]

you and doug benson have the same voice weird

[@fatmac5022]

Review Lucadian Chronicles

[@johnsos9]

Another bad 3D Sonic game...how many years has it been and they still cannot figure out that Sonic doesn't transition to 3D? I kinda take that back seeing how Sonic Adventure was pretty good but that was 15 years ago on Dreamcast. The rest have absolutely horrible.

[@LYeroc4596]

The first hub world isn't so bad... when compared to the second hub world. GAHHHH!!!

[@RavioliNight]

I disagree about the random roads because that's every Sonic game but I'm not at all surprised this game sucked. Don't expect much from Sonic. They should bring back Chaos at least then I'd buy it.

[@RenKium]

WTF!!!!! did you really broke the disk!?!? if you did then i am sorry for you because you can go backto the stor you bought sonic boom and you could get a REFUND

[@dasstu]

Wow, he's played some bad games, but I've never seen him snap a disk before. It just must be that damn bad!

[@crappygut6448]

He snapped the Yamaha super cross disc

[@wiiviewer]

***** Woah. I didn't even remember that.

[@Jayrod64]

I hate when developers release incomplete games just to make a quick buck.Not only does this game run like absolute crap on the Wii U,but all of the levels are uninspired and boring.

[@gustavocve1779]

i love this game. I don't understand how can people get lost playing it. I think people are too used to handholding in games nowadays.

[@ClumpypooCP]

boom backwards is moob.

[@FamilyGaming9]

review zombiu

[@adj789]

Why does the sonic team keep churning out crap, Generations was really good

[@jamesporter9488]

I hear tell that if you really want to get into Sonic Boom, stick to the cartoon.

[@CrystallizedCoyote]

:/ Here's a lego game U can review... The Lego Movie :/

[@sonicjrjr14]

Lost World was good? Lol, what?

[@IAmNotAFunguy]

Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 2.

[@jacksonhart5961]

the disc you broke was fake

[@kwingfan3328]

Lol the ending. This game sucks so much.

[@MooseBurrito575]

wow.... this game is hilarious

[@crappygut6448]

Wiiviewr Do NOT PLAY SONIC 06

[@LimeGamer99]

I belive you're not even trying to like this game...

[@XLPlay1]

Lol!!!

[@EsmeMarion]

Sonic is completely dead to me :v

[@drewshaffer12]

Logic in sonic?? who cares about logic buddy, the game is buggy and it isnt a good game by any means but it is not "unrealistic", if anything there shouldnt be towns just great tracks and courses to ran and platform

[@surgingcrocgaming613]

And it doesn't have anything

[@pippo17173]

Fuck this game.

[@strawberry3107]

Man! that game sucked!
