Sonic the Hedgehog/Narm: Difference between revisions

 

* ''[[Sonic Adventure]]'':

** What really pushes this into Narm territory is the fact that, upon receiving this order, the kneeling police officers calmly get to their feet and proceed to ''moonwalk'' away from [[Eldritch Abomination|Chaos]].

** "Our hearts combined form awesome power!". Sure they do, Tails.

*** This arguably becomes an unintentional [[Brick Joke]] once you see Perfect Chaos's in-game model, which resembles Godzilla's retarded ameboid cousin.

** "All's well that ends well, right?" Made even funnier if you've seen the [[Hellfire Comms]] play-through of it:

** Let's not forget the infamous Tails line, "That's Eggman! I wonder what happened to Sonic?"

** What about the classic Egg Viper line during his lazer spam phase? "GETALOADAGETALOADAGETALOADA THIS!!!"

** Some of the lyrics to Knuckles's theme, especially this line: "You can call me Knuckles/Unlike Sonic, I don't chuckle/I'd rather flex my muscles"

* A fair amount of ''[[Shadow the Hedgehog]]'', but mainly:

** This is made especially comical because the captions put the emphasis on the word "fourth" instead, even though there is absolutely no such emphasis in the dialogue.

*** They seem to put a huge emphasis on the word DAMN every time Shadow spouts it off, almost as if flaunting that it's supposed to be [[Darker and Edgier]] than the mainstream series.

** Shadow's ridiculous barrage of expletives whenever he gets attacked.

*** After Shadow falls...

** "Shadow.... ANDROID?! Am I... an... android TOO?!"

** During the Glyphic Canyon level, when you've got Knuckles with you, has a segment where you have to walk into this tornado to progress. What does Knuckles have to say while you're doing this? [[Large Ham|"HELP!!!]] [[Captain Obvious|WE'RE BEING SUCKED IN!!!"]] This is made much more hilarious for two reasons: the first is that Knuckles is voiced by the [[Large Ham|glorious]] [[Dan Green]], and the second is that, if you wait around on the bridge for a bit, Knuckles will ''tell you to walk into the tornado.''

** This Troper always thought it was intentional. Would you honestly expect Sonic and Shadow, who during this game [[Fridge Brilliance|hate each other]], to politely let the other finish?

** Me and my bro noticed that a lot. It ruined a lot of otherwise cool cutscenes.

'''Sonic:''' [I'll make] you eat those words! }}

*** Conclusion: Sonic is psychic.

** [[User:Spy Hunter 29|I still say]] the lip synching itself was worse in Adventure DX, though. At least they gave everyone enough (read: too much) time to finish speaking.

** Then there's an instance where Eggman is ''supposed'' to cut off another character, but because of Japanese and English's different sentence structures, he reacts about a second too early.

'''Reporter:''' --aos Emerald. }}

*** He was watching it on the screen; if he had to wait for the reporter to say that sparkling gem was a Chaos Emerald, his IQ of 300 would be dubious.

** Speaking of that scene, the news report could have been dramatic if the reporter wasn't speaking with some kind of [[What the Hell Is That Accent?|mix-and-match accent]] made from bits of Australian, cod-Canadian, and [[I Am Very British|rugby-ball-up-the-arse]] English. The strange part is that this seems to be ''intentional''.

** How has Sonic's finishing blow to the Egg Golem in the Dark story not been mentioned yet?

*** Add to the fact that this is one of the more serious Sonic installments, and the subtitles are in ''Comic Sans MS''.

** Tails' reaction to {{spoiler|Sonic's (apparent) death}} was something of a [[Dull Surprise]].

*** If anyone can recall in the [[Sonic X|X]] version, Tails actually started crying when Sonic got trapped in the capsule.

*** That was Amy's reaction in the game. But in the show, most of Amy's script was done by Chris instead.

** Before the scene above, there's the scene where Sonic tries to give the fake Chaos Emerald to Eggman. When Eggman traps him, Sonic gives out a "Whoa.", while his mouth is stretched out to ''comically large proportions''. Even worse, the "Whoa" is the same thing he says during playtime when the player has him an inch away from falling off a cliff.

** During both Sonic and Shadow [[Duel Boss]] fights, if you're using Sonic and hit Shadow enough times, Shadow will drop these gems:

'''Shadow''' (Second [[Duel Boss]]): [[Captain Obvious|Ow. That hurt.]] }}

** To add another Adventure 2 Battle line to the mix, during the final fight of Dark (Shadow vs. Sonic), whenever Sonic falls off the edge (which will happen a lot): "I'll use your technique! CHAOS... CONTROOOooOOL!" Every. Single. Time.

** And that's not getting into the music... although it comes off as [[Narm Charm]] to a point.

** Upon defeating Metal Sonic:

** Take thi- Take thi- Take thi- Take this!

*** I always thought it was "Bet-ty! Bet-ty! Bet-ty!" With a southern accent.

*** I think we all can agree that the above quote can also go with THANK YOU [[Captain Obvious]]. What else are you gonna F****** punch with?

** Play as Team Chaotix, get a bad reel on one of the Casino level slots with Espio as the lead. Listen to his needlessly overdramatic guttural growl of:

*** He really elongates the "NO" there and can't decide between screaming it and growling it. It sounds very much silly especially when Espio's now portrayed as a ninja, if not then a parody of anime ninja. Its surprising that Sega haven't had him recite the Kuji-In yet.

* Ah, the final boss of ''[[Sonic Unleashed]]''. It could've been so epic, had it not suffered from two narms of its own:

** It had its crowning moment with Junpei Takiguchi voicing Dr. Eggman.

* This gem from ''[[Sonic Shuffle]]'' ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ky_HXf3PH9Q Here at 8:20-ish]).

* The 3DS version of ''[[Sonic Generations]]'' attempts to convey the plot of the console versions to the best of its ability. Emphasis on "attempts". There had to be a better way to convey destroying Eggman's robots or making a [[Heroic Sacrifice]] than having 3D models slide past what appear to be ''trading cards''.
