#Sonic #SonicRumors #SonicTheHedgehog - Ігри
Did we miss any major rumors? Let us know!
Mouthwash
Yeah, you missed the rumor right before every release that "this game is going to be good this time"
I just want to be in one of these.
Yeah,a while back a Sonic 3 prototype got leaked,while having a huge amount of differences the most noteable was that the music was different and some zones used the pc versions music,proving that the pc soundtrack was the original
Jim Carrey is to buy out the sonic franchise
"They received many letters from kids asking to give Sonic a gun."
And for Sonic’s neutral special, He wields a Gun!
i watched the video, but i willingly choose to not believe it.
'murica
Sonic battle royale
The 90s were a different time.
I’m sorry, but now I gotta know about “Knuckles in China Land”
Chuckles in Knina Land
its knuckles in china land
Source: info.sonicretro.org/Knuckles_in_China_Land
Knuckles in China Land is a fan-game RPG featuring a character named Knuckles in a place called China Land. The reason it is so well-known by the Sonic fan community is that it was part of the first batch of Samantha Clarfet "hoaxes" created. These hoaxes were posted at the original Secrets of Sonic the Hedgehog website (created by Andre Dirk).
No-one knew the entire truth behind Knuckles in China Land until the history of the game was posted online in early 2005. The original page has since been taken down.
All my homies love “Knuckles in China Land”
Would it be considered the Sonic equivalent to Luigi in the Waffle Kingdom?
"Chao can be stillborn"
[Jazz music stops]
._.
"A more gruesome rumor was that Chao could be stillborn."
This kind of happened to me in the original Sonic Adventure, actually. I had a Chao that had gone into its death cocoon and returned as an egg, but as soon as the egg hatched and the Chaos did its little dance, it sat down and went into another death cocoon and died permanently.
Not exactly 'stillborn' but unnervingly close. Traumatized me as a kid. My only recourse to 'save' the Chao was the never enter that particular garden again. Even now I feel deeply uncomfortable in the Mystic Ruins Chaos Garden.

Source(s): Dude, trust me
There are like, a million sources in the description
@@carso1500 ...I meant the people that started the original rumors...
@@carso1500 It's a joke based on the topic of the video
My friend's great-uncle works at Sega and he told me it's true
It's totally true! My dad's Mr. Sega and he told me.
3:55 "..had issues with the sound quality and backed away from..."
_Clip showing M.J. moonwalking_
Nice one.
15:25 ah yes, the Ps Vita
Show a picture of a PSP
Maybe it's because I'm tired as hell but this made me laugh out loud
Reminds me when they said BotW was a Switch exclusive. Like damn, those consoles deserved better
@@SuperiorGothBun especially for a dedicated video game channel.
The Vita doesn’t get enough loce
"ps vita"
shows the psp
bruh
in their defense, they look the same.
Hah sorry about that!
@@Fanatic_Foremem They do not. Unless you're a simpleton. In which case, WHO'S A GOOD BOY/GIRL?!
They look nothing alike and the psp and vita have the names right on the front
Glad I wasnt the only one to notice that
17:30 "And most of the recurring Sonic cast would have teenage clones of themselves"? Aren't...most of the recurring Sonic cast teenagers already?
Yes
They must mean like Archie-style teens, with poodle skirts and malt milkshakes
the only characters who aren't teenagers (or younger) are like Eggman and Vector.
@@AKAProm I think Rouge and Big are also 18
Shadow is 50+ years old
Yeeessss I love these rumors videos, especially when it's a long video.
We all like em long 😏
Anytime I talk about my wiener its a long video
Everyone Don't Say Same😐😒
I see you’re a man of culture too! Long Videos like these are the best!
Same man. Love Did ya know gaming! Always fun videos to get sucked into
14:49 love the cameo from my uncle that works at Nintendo
Imagine wanting to make a character for a game for kids and then having those kids write you a letter sayin "gib sonic gun lol"
fast-forward to the present day, when this entire channel could be accurately renamed 4chan Believes Everything They’re Told
Whats next?
“Gib tails knife”
>Sonic Adventure 3 in the thumbnail
We're getting the real spicy fake leaks, are we?
-Roger's- Boom Sonic: Ohh, Spicy!
5:07 Jesus Christ, that’s an official cover? A drawing of a bleeding Eggman with a black eye being grabbed by the mustache while Knuckles, in a wife beater of all things, punches him in the teeth?
I heard that they first started the whole "gun in a Sonic game" thing with Gamma, then the Eggman/Tails levels in the Adventure games. THEN Shadow gave a hedgehog character a gun, even slipping in a reference to the idea of Sonic with a gun being laughed off (the line "Personally, I wouldn't be caught dead with one of those things") and THEN caving and giving Sonic a sword in Black Knight as a compromise
17:31 - Wait, teenage clones of the recurring cast? Aren't most of the recurring cast already teenagers?
Pretty much, but I'm sure if anyone wanted to see what this would be, DeviantArt has you covered
Yep, Sonic is 15, Knuckles 16, Silver 14/15 (I forgot lol), Blaze 14, Shadow, biologically, would be 15, as he was cryogenically frozen for over 50 years. That's everyone I can think of. Feel free to correct me or give me more characters for this list.
Logan Pettit Apparently, Tails is 8, Amy is 12-13, Rouge is 18 (nice), Eggman is 45, and Espio is 16.
Adding Vector he is 21, Charmy being 6 but originally 16 before his age got changed for unknown reasons and Big's also 18.
@@MetalMercutio I call bullshit on Rouge being only 18. Becoming a secret agent is not something that you can do over the weekend, and especially when you've got a criminal record.
Heh, 'Static' the Hedgehog; a term defined as "lacking in movement"
Or something about electrokinesis since "static" could also mean being electrically-charged. But he looks like a bad Sonic OC so I'm glad that concept was scrapped.
@@GabePuratekuta actually if you search for "Static the Hedgehog", it leads to www.deviantart.com/dashoc/art/Static-The-Hedgehog-684026122
I'm assuming an official concept design would be significantly different
Static the Hedgehog sounds like if someone fused Static from DC and a hedgehog
is it just me, or does that artwork has some Sonichu vibes just from the colouration?
@@Evilriku13 Thanks, I can't unsee that now
We've waited 18 years for Shenmue III, how much longer do we have to wait for Sonic Adventure 3?
We got Sonic Adventure 3 with Unleashed and 06
It will be released February 31st 2021.
@@clarkdunlevy5171 06? Never heard of it I heard about some weirdly unfinished sonic game coming out
@Jill Sandwich Sure it can't compare to I or II but it definitely didn't suck, people just had too high expectations.
@Memes4Sale Sonic Heroes is more of an Adventure 3 than Unleashed or 06 and it's not at all Adventure 3.
12:47 Shadow "onward" implies that the 4Kids cast is still voicing the characters, that cast (sans Mike Pollock) got replaced as of Colors.
he didn't say "Did you Know?" this is a fake episode
0/10
I heard that if you beat every sonic game in a row before playing this video then it unlocks a special intro where you can hear him saying "Did you know?"
Qq,q,
@@SebastianWoodland I also heard that it will add an extra minute of this video commenting about the rumor that you had just wasted your life,cool huh!
"Roger Hector, the Ex-director" makes me unreasonably pleased
I love these rumor investigation videos, they’re filled with information that I’m sure took so much time to research. Thanks for continuing this series.
0:49 So Shadow The Hedgehog is literally the fans' fault, just goes to show that listening to fans isn't always the best idea.
@@vladimir9248 I know. But if you watch the video, it says that at that time fans were asking for Sonic to have a gun. And that inspired Sega to give Shadow one instead cuz he's the "edgy one".
Shadow the Hedgehog was a hella fun game
They could just ignore the guns. It's not like one of the missions they're forced to use them. Lastly, Shadow would come out either way since Shadow did win the poll about which character about which character about them as the protagonist.
Not necessarily. Shadow with a gun isn't inherently a bad idea, but it's executed poorly. Less about not listening to your fans and more about understanding when you're out of your element and not tackling a drastically different gameplay style that you aren't experienced with.
20:48 You should have said 'but if we learnt anything from being sonic fans it's to not get our hopes up'
19:27 I see Dad likes Sonic Mania as well
IM SO GLAD I WASNT THE ONLY ONE WHO CAUGHT THAT THERE
Ofcourse he does! Have you actually seen the commercial? Its an awesome throw back
That fella "Wentos" being an insider is quite interesting considering there's a mysterious character in Sonic Unleashed called Wentos who sells you rare items and never actually shows his face...
Where do you think the alias came from?
heres the stupidest rumor that someone was spreading in my local playground
The Sonic and Knuckles cartridge could be used to use Sonic characters in other games secretly, you just had to find out which. I legitimately thought I could pick Knuckles in Madden and got the game, only to find out it wasnt one of the "secret" games.
Guess I was stupid enough to believe it.
The part about the chao rumors brought me back to when I first used the internet back in 2005. I remember seeing a website claiming you could make big chaos and was so frustrated when I couldn't get it to work.
Imagine if for the marketing for a Sonic game that Sega was to spread rumors about the game and only one was true.
I think he's proposing the idea for SEGA to market a new Sonic game by spreading rumors. These rumors would be of several fake Sonic games, but only one of them would be true.
This reminds me of some of Rare's marketing for Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts. They revealed multiple different plot scenarios for what the game's premise might be, while stating that one and only one of them was the real one. It ended up being the most boring, mundane one. So, that completely backfired.
@@nobodyinparticular2870 Are you having a stroke? Because the reply doesn't make sence either
Early rumors: Edgy kids wanting Sonic to be Doom for no reason
Post Adventure 2 rumors: Hungry fans just wanting a good game
11:55 wasn't Sonic Unleashed initially developed as Sonic Adventure 3, but later renamed since it started to differentiate itself to much from the other two? It's been some time since I've heard this commentary, but I think it's legit.
Same story with Heroes
@@Jtmissile Same with sonic '06
@@Jtmissile In a story sense Heroes is sonic adventure 3 as it continues the story which came to a conclusion with Shadow... 2006 starts a bit of a new story as a continuance from that
I always saw Heroes as a direct sequel to Adventure 2. I don’t understand why people don’t see it that way.
@Sea Biscuit yeah, it's in the video, but I mean that at some point during development the game was indeed going to be a Sonic Adventure sequel in both name and gameplay before becoming it's own game.
I remember the michael Jackson rumor, it was heavily researched in the early youtube days, there were so many videos about it, It was a magical time
Seeing Sonic Adventure in the thumbnail brings back memories. I used to play SA DX on GameCube all the time as a kid.
ok....
maltese 84 Maybe because theres only one Dreamcast version and the DX version is the only one that’s been ported and the DX version is also way more accessible
@maltese 84 I'm sure you're not "THE ONLY ONE WHO-" I played it too back then and so did thousands of others- it's just the DX version is more accessible and has been ported more
Cool.
This video hits different since it didn’t start off with “Did you know...”
Because no Rumors about Comics, Movies, and TV Shows.
Nice FLCL pic
17:31
"With teenage clones of themselves"
"90%" of the cast who are 12-19:
Sonic Rift might actually be happening? That trailer at the end of the 30th anniversary livestream was pretty vague.
5:46
Blue Spheres guy is jizzin' his pants right now
Re Sonic 3 Music: Not going to mention the recent beta tracks being reused in the PC release? No...? Didn't think so.
Well damn, the Jackson music references make so much more sense now.
It's cool that some of it's essentially the opposite of what the community thought, with some parts of songs being repurposed from other artists, and inspiring others. Like Ice Cap being repurposed from Hard Times.
"Ps Vita"
Shows a PSP.
Almost. So close.
It should been mentioned that the replaced music tracks in Sonic & Knuckles Collection (Ice Cap, Carnival Night, and Launch Base) were recently discovered to be actually based on the original prototype tracks, before Jackson’s involvement in the project.
6:25 greatest point in my life is getting mad at this game tossing the controller down near the console and suddenly being taken to a level select where I went to the special final boss
When the mushroom hill zone theme kicks in you gotta either chill or jam... noice
7:28 I honestly miss this game and it would be perfect for the switch
I mean... Sonic 3 has that Mid-Boss theme were you hear "Whoo! Come on!"... I like that theme >.>
ua-cam.com/video/SBTAGVnfXAw/v-deo.html
"Laughably hopeful"
I like that.
That intro was exactly what this video needed to have. I love that DYKG understands how Sonic fans think.
When you talk about songs or sound effects, why on earth do you not edit them in?
Might have something to do with the iron grip over creators that UA-cam has called the Copyright System.
Or it'd be even more editing for the poor soul who made this and flashed up a PSP when the script and voiceover said Vita.
Probably the first option.
weimaj lmao I didn’t even notice that, that poor soul indeed. I’LL GIVE THEM A PASS JUST THIS ONE TIME
Most of the time it's just copyright reasons.
Push DustIn I don’t really think a sound effect would be copyright claimed
@@asmr_sabri You might checking out full videos about the story that also compare the songs/sounds. It's really interesting.
My favorite part is at at 17:29. I've been watching my friend draw him for years and it's cool to see his work featured in this video.
His name is also "Dashoc" on Twitter if you want to follow him. He's a really good artist!
the idea of sonic deaths accompanied by Rise of the Triad flying eyeballs is extremely hilarious
"if we learned anything, it's not to get your hopes up"...damn, you are cold as ice
As a kid, I remember hearing a rumor for Sonic Adventure 2 about the legendary "black box somersault" power up for Sonic. Rumors said the power-up was hidden in the last stage of SA2, "Cannon's Core." When playing as Sonic, you would go up the waterfall at the end of the stage and launch yourself onto a platform above, holding the power-up. It turned out just to be the location for the "lost chao" mission.
I was so excited to break black boxes in every stage...thought they would all reveal something secret. But anyway, just another rumor to add to the ever growing list of hungry sonic fans' wishes who are desperate for new content...
The Sonic Dimensions rumour reminds me of the Sonic level pack for Lego Dimensions, plus Lego Dimensions did have a couple color based mechanics.
11:37
No more Sonic Adventure 3
Humanity has evolved beyond the need of Sonic Adventure 3
No,believe me they didn't.
It does make sense for Runners to be called Mach 2 during development as it was the second game, the first being Dash, to solely have the continuous running of the Mach Speed sections from 06
8:43 That’s funny because back when we were little kids and only knew Sonic through our friend who was a big fan, my brother and I called Amy (whose name we didn’t know) ‘Nails’ simply because it rhymed with ‘Tails’.
9:45 Funny enough, the invisible and translucent Chao were also rumors until being confirmed later in the game’s life cycle through the GBA adapter and the cross breeding of the metallic and shiny chao. However, the rumor of a supposed Chaos Garden being unlocked when one manages to create a chaos Chao was but a rumor, and no such thing exists. Sadly. Would have been a good reward for all of that work raising one Chao to become a god.
15:25
The guy: psvita
The video: psp
8:51 Wow, Ow The Edge used to be even _edgier._
oh my gosh i actually believed the "team metal" rumor when i was a lot younger.
still sad it isn't real :[
There's a mod that we showed in the video if you want to experience it!
Remember the Sonic Rift Rumors?? 😂
It sounds vaguely familiar. What was it again?
Same
Yesssss 😂
I knew that was the title of a fan comic the whole time
13:44 I'm surprised there's no sort of clarification on the scene originally showing Maria falling.
Also, one of my favorite rumors surrounding SA2 was the existence of there being a small "Biolizard Animal" that you could get floating in space during the Biohazard fight that you could give to Chao
That sounds kind of adorable actually.
The Prototype of the Ultimate Chao!
6:09 This is a real life example of "its not a bug, its a feature"
1:20 You can play these levels in the mobile version of Sonic 2.
Only hidden palace zone
What convinced me of MJ doing the music for Sonic 3 was the End Credits / Stranger in Moscow arrangements. They're practically identical. Oh, and we need Adventure 3 YESTERDAY, Sega!
15:23 "Sonic Generations will be coming to PS Vita" and they show a PSP
no bro thats totally a ps vita
funny thing, Sonic Generations was supposed to have a PSP version as well
15:05 Correction: There was a third game in the making for the fairytale book series, but it was scrapped for unknown reasons. The writer of said games talked about it back in 2014 I believe after being asked in a Q&A on sonicretro I believe.
Did you know: Sonic is a blue hedgehog
Did you also know: Freddy Fazbear is a robotic bear
No fucking way
Omg really!!!!????11111
We all know, dude...
5:07 WTF kinda cover is this? there is blood.......... in a Sega magazine WHAT!
Wow this was comprehensive and AWESOME!
Sonic the hedgehog is one of my favorite series of time and I love learning new things about the series to this day
i remember smacking sonic 3d in a rage and getting the level select, then amused my brother by throwing my slipper a the mega drive and getting the level select
15:24 Ehm... That's not a PSVita... It's right there, it's a PSP
14:50 - Or perhaps the magazine themselves made up the rumour and cited an “anonymous insider”, in the hopes that people wouldn’t question them.
14:59 What webpage is that? I'm more so curious about the Sonic artwork there. Feels adventure-esc but I don't think I've seen it before.
"Laughably hopeful" is the perfect description of what it means to constantly think that someday a good new Sonic game will be released .
Well, there are tons of rom hacks and fan games to choose from...
Thank you so much for all videos you made. You are one of my absolutely best youtubers ever. :)
Jsi borec.
i love these rumor videos. keep em coming.
I'd legit kill for a Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 remake. Those r arguably my favorite games in the series
You can get them on Steam
I would be the only person whod buy that Heroes remake, and I'd have no regrets!
I remember when the Hidden Palace music in Sonic 2 sound test drove me crazy as a kid. I tried everything that might unlock this secret level. Too bad there wasn't the internet back then to find out that the level was cut, but the music wasn't.
When immortality is invented i vow to dedicate my 400 years to beating every blue ball level in Sonic 1
Get a head-start now!
A better use of the time would probably be to invent a bot that could do it instead through an emulator, and then making sure the hardware and code will run long enough to actually pull the feat off.
Sonic Generations was rumored to come to the PS Vita
*shows a psp*
In Shadow the Hedgehog, the scene with Maria and blood was actually in the game. However, they had to cut it in order to get the E10 ESRB rating.
20:07 I just wanna say that, that is a dope looking guitar and that if you somehow got your hands on it as the original, it would probably be priceless...
15:26
"PS Vita"
Uhhh...
They didn say "Did you know?" at the beginning.
Pretty sure that's illegal.
00:42 Bruh, did you know that Fang the Sniper / Knack the Weasel almost had a silver magnum gun way before Shadow the Hedgehog?
14:24 To be fare, that looks EXACTLY like AiAi we be in the game with his shadow being strips just like in the real games art for the characters
Remember the rumor when Sonic was kissed by a _human_ girl and when he put sports tape all over him to look like some weird mummy??
*aha- aHAHAHA!!*
...oh wait.
Back then, that would have sounded like a bad fan fiction.
15:25 that's not a Vita, my dudes
I read a “How To Draw Sonic Characters” book in high school and proceeded to draw a picture of Shadow...on the back of the classroom’s attendance sheet. Oops!
My heart is still open for a Sonic Adventure 3
I've never been so early!
No one’s been!
(> ~
I wonder what music we would have gotten if Jackson had assisted with music on the Sega CD format.
Also cant believe we were denied the true, original creation, Static the Hedgehog.
17:31 you’re telling me that 15 year old sonic could have met 14 year old sonic?! WHY DIDN’T SEGA GO ALONG WITH THIS???
17:18 Excellent editing.
19:41 the best part of this video
