Even ads the company made used see-guh down here. And when you run a mega drive at 50Hz PAL the Sega noise at the start can sound like see-guh. hey, i'm australian and have pronounced it seega since the 90's as well, but the sega sound in the games is unambiguously sayga

There was a point about ten years ago where Sega Australia's PR was really trying to establish the proper pronunciation, they'd drill people before interviews and stuff to make sure to not say See-ga, but they gave up pretty quickly because nobody who wasn't a Sega employee ever stuck with it.

As someone who recently revisited both Adventure 2 and Crash, they both have their own problems but I have a soft spot for each.

The modern ones are sayga but the ones on sonic 1-k can definitely be heard as Seega. I suspect it ends up being one of those things where you hear it the way you think it should be.

Did people seriously think an SA1 remake was coming because the dude who voiced Sonic back then tweeted a Sonic picture? Like...you don't think they wouldn't just use Roger (who is way better, also, Jason Griffith was way better than Drummond too) if they did do a remake?

Roger does snarky rear end in a top hat Sonic really well but isn’t that great in my opinion when he has to get serious. Griffith at the very least seemed to get better as he went along, Black Knight was ironically probably his best performance (as it was also his last). Drummond was really good in my opinion (SA1 not withstanding) but also had the shortest time in the role. Plus as I said before, getting the original cast back would basically be impossible as the kids who played Tails are too old now and Eggman’s original VA Deem Bristow is long dead (also Jon St John apparently hates doing the Big voice). Not sure what Drummond and the rest of the old cast have been up to lately though. Larryb fucked around with this message at 12:38 on Apr 24, 2020 |

Once the dubs weren't being directed by 4Kids anymore, the actors that they kept using until they got new roles for everybody, notably Griffith and Pollock, started improving in those roles by leaps and bounds. Larryb posted:Roger does snarky rear end in a top hat Sonic really well but isn’t that great in my opinion when he has to get serious. Iiiii would argue that this is because Roger has not had a single opportunity to play a serious Sonic in a script that wasn't godawful. (it's probably not a coincidence that two of the best performances of Sonic, Drummond in SA2 and Griffith in Black Knight, are probably the two best written games, especially when it comes to Sonic's character! The only halfway decent material Roger has gotten is the few jokes that aren't total duds)

According to Ryan, he was the top choice out of the auditions for post-4kids Sonic, but turned it down because Sega was offering peanuts for the role. I doubt they’d have him back for a game (remake or otherwise) unless they either paid him decently or he changed his mind.

I doubt they’d have him back for a game (remake or otherwise) unless they either paid him decently or he changed his mind. Out of curiosity, is Ryan Drummond (or any of the original English cast) still doing voice work? And if so, have they had a role in anything significant lately?
