I love how Ben Schwartz referred to the levels in Sonic as Boards! That's so old school! I grew up with my sister and mom who said that sometimes! The 80s had different terms than my 90s experience!
I agree but let’s not forget the legend Jason Griffith, he did an astonishing job as Sonic back in the da, everyone else is obsolete, except Ben of course
Azzeal is agree with you for the movie but in the games (modern) sonic is a bit older and more experienced it seems but Ben was a Solid choice for the movie
It is. Although it is a slightly different click on the mini. Also you could tell most of the mistakes were due to timing differences between the genesis and mini. Kinda wonder why they didn't allow him to use his genesis. Ijs
Ben Schwartz is hilarious and made this whole video definitely worth the watch. If SuperSonic doesn't end each level with Sonic wavering next to the edge it would be a slap in the face.
Lol did you even wacth the entire thing? He's just joking around. Both of them seem to jive off each other pretty well, and Ben even has to stop himself from referring to SuperSonic by his real name at one point.
