Sonic Wishes You a Shitty Morning
Posted by Brian Crecente at 9:20 PM on October 10, 2008
There are many types of creepy. There is, for instance, the zipper-chested Sackboy creepy, the kind that gives you nightmares of creeping death and knit intestines. Then you have Were creepy, the glaring, overly happy, spring in your step kind that makes you wonder whose intestines this particular bit of anthropomorphic IP just choked down to get so happy.

I'm sorry, but I disagree. That costume is absolutely WIKKID! If only I had that suit... I could do some great things! TERRIBLE things... but great nonetheless!

Weresonic, strutting his stuff. Reminds me of some guy wearing shades, and everyone he passes gets finger-gunned and an obligatory "EEEEYYYYYY!"

Is the guy with him making sure people don't beat him up? Or is it so that he won't run into things? They should have that guy as a playable character (unlockable maybe) in the new game.

Giant enemy Sonic. Attack its weak-point with its cruddy gameplay for massive damage.

can we please stop with the use of the phrase 'IP' it's pretentious and does not make you sound smarter. when new movies, books, or albums are released are they referred to as 'IP's'?

Oh yeah, and was he doing that signature Sonic-touching-his-nose pose or was he just adjusting his mask/helmet/headdress?

Why did they decide to flaunt what many consider to be the worst part(s) of the new Sonic game?

For some reason, I can't stop thinking that his spikes now look like bananas.
Goes along well with the old hot dog Bionic Commando guy!

Man I hate Sonic, all of his games after Sonic Adventure 2 (and maybe Heroes) suck ass. I'll pass, I will play Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 for the 100th time

@Eltigro: From someone who's had to wear a costume like that and escort many people in that, it's both to fend off people that will hurt him/her and help him/her walk. You can sweat balls in that costume and not be able to see due to the perspiration.

I think the guy in the suit just got L-A-Y-E-D.
It would certainly explain the extra spring in his step.
Admit it, werehogs make questionable gameplay, but damn, are they sexy.

@DontCrossMyanimals:
There haven't really been that many games after sonic heroes bar the god awful 360 one. Well not any true sonic games. And the ones that were released like Sonic Rush and Sonic Rush adventure were pretty good. Think about how many spin off's marios been in...

Posted 5:15 AM 11/10/08
@Eltigro: And on top of what JackiJinx already mentioned -- since the performer wouldn't be allowed to speak, the escort, as a company rep, can answer any questions that visitors might have about the character, the game, or the company; or help the character with any needed props; or help any visitors take photos with the character, etc.
And other miscellaneous stuff too off the show floor, too: because that costume seems to incorporate arm extensions, the performer won't be able to get in and out of costume by herself/himself.
