To bring some correction, this « third Sonic » representing the Dreamcast era is false. Ryan was indeed called by Sega, but to voice Modern Sonic after the 4kids contract ended, the reason he said Generations and not Colors is probably because Gens was the big game which Sega put a lot of focus on (that and production for Generations started before Colors).

@ShockwaveFPSStudios13 күн бұрын
It’s half false, half true. Generations had 9 stages representing the three eras of Sonic at the time (Genesis, Dreamcast, and the then Modern games), but you can only play as two Sonics. On top of that, Modern Sonic gets 4 rival battles/boss fights while Classic Sonic gets 2, and Perfect Chaos is the only boss who’s not an Eggman, so it’s more likely Dreamcast Sonic was planned to be in the game, but was cut halfway through development… which would’ve explained why Generations’ story is kinda weak.

2:11 Actually, wait. *looks up* Yo, this is about Sonic's first cameo-appearance! The original japanese release of Rad Mobile was in 1990. 4:33 Most likely meant to play during the Meteor Smash, as it is easier to just put that part of the theme as a seperate bit, instead of trying to correctly set more complex internal instructions with it being in the same audiotrack. 5:33 Reference towards Shadow the Hedgehog where using Chaos Control during a boss also changed the music to fit the slowing of time. 21:05 It is also the only canon mention of "Dr. Robotnik" as far as I know, because the mentions in SA1 were added by the western localization, while Generations' dialogue was written in english first.(For reference, the JP-script changed this scene to Classic Tails instead wondering about how there are "Two Eggmans".) However, it is not the only or even first canon mention of the family name in the series, because SA2 and following games made the the name canon through...well, everyone knows how, lol. 23:53 Notably for this scene, neither of the dialogue choices actually make any sense. Tails would know about the rings, because he also went on similar adventures(Sometimes even tag-teaming with Sonic). Meanwhile, Tails didn't actually do anything to Sonic's tornado, which was destroyed by the Egg Carrier 1. Both transforming planes were Tails' and the one with the ground mode didn't even carry the name "Tornado" anymore. 25:06 A little bunch of notes about the Shadow-fight: The orbs that one has to get are appearently meant to be a version of the powerups from Shadow the Hedgehog that allow Shadow to instantly access Chaos Control or Chaos Blast. The winner is also supposed to get the emerald, which is similar to how Sonic challenges Shadow to an actual race for an emerald in a Space Colony ARK-mission in said game(Though even if Sonic wins, he leaves the emerald behind after talking cap to Shadow). Unless I remember wrong, this fight's emerald is also the 4th emerald one can get, which is another potential reference to StH because of the "Where's the 4th Chaos Emerald!?"-line in said game.

There's a little bit of misinformation here. Ryan Drummond was not being cast as Dreamcast Sonic, but as Modern Sonic. As he said, he was being auditioned when they were replacing Jason and his cast. The reason people assume that he was supposed to be a third Sonic is because of the fact that he says he was being cast for Generations, which was after Colours with an established Roger. Later info in the coming years have stated that Generations actually started development BEFORE Colors, so casting Generations would have been first. This also makes sense as Junichi Kanemaru was both "Dreamcast" Sonic and "Modern" Sonic. There would be no distinction between their voices. The internal name of the game being Sonic2X and the original plan of the game being a 2.5D sidescroller are just the final nails in the coffin. So no, no Dreamcast Sonic was ever planned. Ryan was just supposed to be in Roger's place.
@milesfernando2 жыл бұрын
This part is not exactly evidence, but still notable. Had "Dreamcast" Sonic been in the game, there would also be issues with having his equivalent of Tails, like Classic. All 3 of the Drummond era Tails actors were children and could not realistically reprise their roles. For two of them, it had been an entire decade since their part in the series.

3:20 You assume that the folder names all refer to Sonic Generations. But that's just speculation. They simply could have linked files from different projects to also use them in Generations. "SONIC2010" for example is actually the internal name of Sonic Colors. 7:40 I was the one who discovered and re-enabled the old "Unleashed" renderer in Sonic Generations. Dario and others restored/repaired the shaders and stuff, otherwise everything would have been red, as can be seen in an old video on my channel. The new renderer was most likely created for the stereoscopic 3D support that was a big feature of Generations. After all it was released during the brief time when 3D TVs were all the rage.
@lpfan44912 жыл бұрын
It's actually possible that "Sonic 2010" was originally meant to stand for generations Wii interms of project-forking. Because Colors actually still uses some filesystem-naming from the cancelled game, so it is possible that they never actually "created" a new project and just resumed work as if nothing happened.

Really nice video as always, however you technically did not mention an interesting fact of trivia regarding the full version of Generations, skipped some other CGI cutscenes featured in trailers that are not present in the game and you missed the mention of a Sonic Generations Demo in this. Regarding the full version of the game you forgot to mention that the console versions of the game feature Sonic the Hedgehog Rev0 playable in the game with the possibility of buying infinite continues too. While the game is not present in the Steam version through hacking you can buy both the shop items and get them to display on the hub world (but nothing works). In regards to CGI cutscenes 3 cutscenes were part of many Sonic Generations trailers that did not make the cut of the full game besides the mentioned one. The first one is Classic Sonic running on Green Hill and it is an extended clip of the one featured in the game one, the second one is in City Escape Classic Sonic runnning and Modern Sonic using his board in the city roads and the third one is in Rooftop Run where Modern Sonic uses boost and Classic Sonic jumps in sucession in some enemies. All of these can be found in the respective era trailers if I am not mistaken. In regards to the demo information this is more of a trivia fact than anything really. There was another demo released (at least on PS3) where it features Green Hill Act 1 and 2 playable unlimited times. While many might think this is the same as the Steam Demo which you can still get they actually have a slight difference which is one having the score act end screen (the Steam version) and the other only displaying coming soon in 2011 (which is the PS3 version). Sorry if the last part isn't that interesting but I think it is in the spirit of these videos to share more info! Keep up the excellent work as usual and take care!

8:46 This is a leftover from Unleashed and has nothing to do with the Wii. Sonic Unleashed on 360 and PS3 has a dedicated 4:3 mode (determined by system settings) that was removed in Generations. Generations 360 and PS3 simply letterbox the 16:9 viewport in a 4:3 signal if the system is set to 4:3, like most 360 and PS3 games. Generations PC has a "Letterbox" aspect ratio option in its launcher meant to do that same thing, but it's broken and works exactly the same as the default "Widescreen" option

Honestly I just wish this game had more to it. I would've loved if they added a level from Sonic CD and from Knuckles Chaotics, just to have more classic era levels. Call it the Addon Era... or something else lol. And then after the Dreamcast Era, have a level for Secrect Rings and Black Night; dubbing it the Storybook Era. I would totally love if we also had more rival fights 🤩. For classic I would put Silver Sonic & Mecha Sonic as a tag team, like you take out Silver Sonic, then fight Mecha, then fight a Super Mecha. And also add Classic Knuckles. For Modern Sonic's rival fights, they could've added Blaze and Jet. I'm sure they could have came up with a fun way to fight them like they did the others. And lastly, just more to the story. How about a cutscene of Sonic with Tails (Classic Sonic, and/or a friend you save from that level) in each level you complete. Similar to the scene they had in Chemical Planet because that was neat.

I remember watching an EmuEmi-livestream where he elaborated on the story. Basically, he was being cast and then they told him that taking the job is going to be attached to a tour around the world to promote the game. He asked them what the compensation for that would be and they simply said there wouldn't be any, they thought that them financing such an event is cool enough. Obviously, he declined because that would have meant he would have been gone from home for almost a year with nothing to show for it, which would have sent him faaaaaar into the red. Basically just a big jerk move and only done in an attempt to push the limits of the deal. I don't understand it either, because is it really worth relinquishing positive fan-feedback over attemping to turn Ryan into a VA-slave like that?
