Sonic Colors 7 Things you probably didn’t know collection

Nice and easy all 4 Updates of 7 things you probably didn’t know about Sonic colors

Part I
• Dr. Eggman has built his park after developing a sense of remorse for his past “indiscretions”. Hmm… a likely story.
• At one point in an early cut scene Sonic “breaks the fourth wall” and talks directly to the gamer.
(Actually its a bit of an aside about what’s being talked about at the time, I’m not going to spoil it because its funny… I think the Community will definitely appreciate its intent lets put it that way! :) )
• SA-55, the round red robot also known as “Ergo” by fans who appeared in Sonic Unleashed will return, but slightly more jaded than before. Oh and by the way SA-55 ISN’T his name… his name is actually “Orbot”
• Orbot also has a counterpart in this game… who we’ll be revealing next week.
• Tails’ “Miles Electric” handheld device that appeared in Sonic Unleashed makes a re-appearance.
• The boss you have already likely seen from Tropical Resort Dr. Eggman refers to as the “Big Boy”.
• The curly haired white Wisp is important to the Colors story and its name is…. something you’ll have to tune in next week to find out!


Part II
• Orbot’s compatriot is indeed called “Cubot” as some detectives have been able to deduce. He’s a cube shaped robot – ‘Cube-Bot’, much like Orbot is spherical, (quite literally ‘Orb-bot’ and also an anagram of robot if you hadn’t noticed) who is… er… a little defective shall we say.
• Since you like Orbot so much, here is his character render in high quality PNG format. He has had a bit of a paint job by the looks of things.

• FOXY FACT: Tails can read binary fluently.
• Contrary to reports elsewhere, Amy Rose does NOT feature in the story of Sonic Colors Wii. Seriously, unless she’s become an invisible mute post-Unleashed I’ve seen nothing to indicate otherwise.
• We will see the “consequences” of Sonic destroying a giant robot… in more than one sense. DUN DUN DUUUNNNN!
• The curly haired Wisp is called Yacker, he is the Wisp Sonic and Tails communicate with to find out what is going on. A silent guide if you like to the world of Wisps.
• Oh, okay then here’s Cubot’s character render too.

Part III
• Cubot’s voice processor is broken – and stuck on “cowboy mode”.
• If you run out of Wisp power when underground in Drill mode you WILL die.
• FOXY FACT: Tails isn’t as keen on high speeds as you might think…
• Pits of death DO exist, however when you approach a section where this isn’t immediately obvious a hazard warning triangle will appear at the bottom of your screen so you do get some warning.
• FOXY FACT II: Tails’ toolbox is painted like the blue Tornado paint scheme, and even has his two-tail logo on it.
• Destroying all enemies in a built up area using a Wisp power or dash will get you a “SLAM” bonus.
• Starlight, star bright – is that a Motobug? Alright!

Part IV
• Contrary to the E3 build some of you may have played getting S-ranks are TOUGH. You’ll need to maximize your grabbing of bonuses whilst still maintaining your speed and maximizing your ring count in order to gain them.
• Yacker doesn’t have a voice as such, but makes an audible chittering noise. He’s also big on body language communication – think Sonic: Night of the Werehog.
• Since you guys love the Tails facts so much… FOXY FACT: Tails is more interested in inventing than Sonic’s heroics.
• Sometimes bad situations can lead to good discoveries!
• You CAN skip cutscenes – press + on the Wii Remote.
• Dr. Eggman ALSO has something of a 4th wall breaking moment.
• The Wisps have a, rather rude nickname for Dr. Eggman!
