I visited Sega today.

A couple of weeks ago, our good friend Neil (aka KooshKoosh) alerted me of this: http://blogs.sega.com/usa/2010/10/27/join-us-in-san-francisco-for-segas-next-community-event/ These days, I live just a short train ride from downtown San Francisco. I figured "well, why not." I had no misgivings about ...

Re: All-new 2D Sonic rolling out in 2010

Am I really the only one who thinks it looks horrible? Not at all. I believe a few people in this thread have directly said it looks awful. Sonic's model is poorly animated and fails to deliver on any hopes of reviving the classic style or coming up with something fresh. The badniks look dorky as h...

Re: All-new 2D Sonic rolling out in 2010

That trailer went below my already rock bottom expectations. I know it showed very little, but the presentation is undeniably and irreconcilably fucked. The fact that they're including a homing attack only adds further insult to an already insulting mess. What it boils down to, very simply, is that ...

Re: Who's there?

It occurred to me that someone might see this thread and assume I made the image. Just to clarify, I am responsible for the macro but not the drawing. I found the drawing while browsing some Sonic porn board for comedic purposes during a Skype chat.

. . . it was strictly for comedy, I swear! :(

The edge animation looks TOO fluid. It looks like he's doing some weird dance move rather than trying to regain his balance to avoid falling over. His motions should more more jerky and sudden or something. I also hate the way he runs, but that's kind of been a long standing gripe. It just seems eve...

I was kind of hoping to come here and find some people being as cynical about this as I have felt. Sonic's model is ugly, the voice is bad, the so-called "attitude" is annoying and harkens back to how throughly Sonic has been butchered by Sega of America over the years ("Sonic's the name, speed's my...

It was more difficult to decide which entry was worthy of my vote for this contest than it was with the "real" one. I went with Dark Prime; partly because something about Sonic's expression cracks me up, and partly because I'm fairly certain nobody else is going to vote for him, so my vote is basica...

Spazz: Yeah, that's kind of the issue I'm having. 5.4' tall can't possibly be right, because Eggman stands significantly shorter than the post, but he's obviously taller than 5.4' I agree with the 6' measurement for Eggman . . . basically, what it boils down to is using sprites is a pretty shite way...

This is a dumb request and I almost feel bad asking. . . .

I'm trying to figure out, with as much accuracy as possible, how tall/wide start markers/point markers/lampposts from the original Mega Drive games would be in real life. I roughly estimate they'd be about 7'x2' based on the fact that Eggman is meant to be about six feet, but I'd like to get somethi...

s'alright. Most of the animation, though, there's this program called.. I dunno, Swift or something like that, lets you import 3D models into flash to and fake their animation.
