With all eyes diverted to coverage of E3, it’s pretty easy to miss the obvious. A quick look at SEGA’s homepage, and you’ll notice quite a few updates, including a comparison of Weresonic and Sonic from Sonic Unleashed.
My, what big teeth you have Weresonic…
They’re obviously prerendered (and possibly just artist renditions), but are cool to see none the less. You might also notice a few other pieces you either haven’t seen before, or havent seen under proper lighting before (such as the first Weresonic render we ever saw).
Some of the shots below really highlight some of the less obvious distinctions between our Classic hero and his new beastly alter-ego. Check out the studs on those boots!
[...] Matriculated found a nifty page in the latest Famitzu, and promptly made it available to the Sonic Community earlier today. The page sports some never before seen Sonic Unleashed screenshots, along with a larger version of one of the Weresonic art pieces we mentioned yesterday. [...]
I really enjoy the way Were-Sonic looks. I think it’s absolutely the most perfect rendition of the idea they could have possibly created. However, I’m still not sure how I feel about his stretch-armstrong arms… They seem to be capable of some pretty interesting feats, to be sure, but somehow it just seems… awkward.
I would have rathered him been created with naturally longer/larger arms (though that would probably make him seem more gorilla-like than wolfish) than giving them the ability to stretch… but alas. The rest of him still looks incredible.
Heh…For some reason, Were-Sonic’s new shoes remind me of Bowser’s paws.
WOW!!! =O Awesome pictures!!
Cool! I’ll make my own wallpaper of these! FUN! FUN! FUN!
Cool! I always love to see new artwork. Last night, I was wishing for more Sonic and WereSonic artworks other than the ones in the ONM cover. And here they are! And could they be any better?
Despite the sneakers, he’s just how I pictured him.
were sonic is so awesome
Hey guys, I know a lot of you wanted a smaller version of the vid, so I’ve killed 2 birds with one stone and made an 18MB file and replaced the crappy song with a really coool song from The Wedding called Return. You can grab it here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=104FZFMG
Let me know what you think! I thought it fit pretty well…
I’m still not sure if I like WereSonic, even though it seems to work well enough. I would’ve preffered a Dark side story rather than WereSonic. Shadow is too cool to be left out (will buy the game anyway).
Make. Wallpapers. Now! XD
Epic Wolf Sonic pictures
Arg. Too many updates. Awesome.
I just figured out that if you click the images in my slide show, you can view the image by itself.
@Hannah the Excited Echidna: Yeah I thought of that too. Mostly because I was playing ristar at the time
Hey, I downloaded the HD E3 trailer (Wich took about 4 hours XD) and took some pictures from the trailer and put them in a slide show (Because otherwise I would have to direct link you to every image…)

(Sorry about the long address >_>)
Unfortunately, it stopped downloading at 63%, so I wasn’t able to get any “Warehog” game play… But I did get a close up of him right after he transformed.
OMG, Something in my brain just clicked. The Were-Sonic gameplay… is like Ristar! The stretchy arms, the puzzle solving… and though this is speculation, in that one screenie of Were-Sonic where he’s holding onto the pole… is there a possibility for the Ristar-esque pole looping? Even if it isn’t, yays, it’s classic gameplay, just not in the Sonic sense.
Hey u stole my name and added a number! not cool!
Whoooooooo0oo spin away from tacos! (a line from Open your heart reversed)
His gloves disappear, but his shoes just change. Nice trademarking SEGA.
