Re: Sonic Lost World - Nintendo Exclusive

Yeah, I would have rather Eggman been kind of a side mention here and not the "main villain" if these 6 are to be featured so prominently. No reason he has to be the main villain in every game right? Anyway, this looks pretty cool! I've thought for a while that Sonic could use a parkour/trick system...

Re: Sonic Jump (iOS)

This looks all right to me, though I'm not certain how I feel about Sonic dipping into that Free-To-Play realm of buying off the rings that should be fun to collect anyway. I'm not a stranger to it at this point, having played a fair share of Spiral Knights and some mobile games like Temple Run and ...

Re: Sonic the Fighters coming to PSN/XBLA with Honey

It's pretty cool to see Sonic the Fighters get some more exposure and added features. I know it isn't particularly deep, but I find it pretty fun. And maybe if it garners enough interest they can get the AM2 fellows from the most recent VF5 expansion to get cracking on a new one... ? Is this some ki...

Re: Wii U Launch

I got to try out the Wii U at the Experience event in Seattle! Playing the musically timed Co-op in Rayman Legends was enough to sell me, and indeed, the launch (window) line-up is right up my alley when it comes to the types of games I like to play. I actually got to play about everything but Ninte...

Re: Humbie Indie Bundie Five

Since Double Fine now owns it independently... yes? I don't know, the term indie is kinda thrown around willy-nilly these days. Whatever the case, it's some great games/soundtracks for a great price! Who can complain about the nomenclature?

Re: Sonic 4 Episode 2 Not to Come until 2012

Cute as the homage is, the poses and negative space in that rendition are a little awkward. I mean, for comparison, the original image: http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2007/09/sonic_2_title_screen_xbla.jpg They're leaning towards each other there, going along with the circular framing b...

Re: What are you playing today?

Punch-Out!! is really great. The gameplay seems pretty much the same as Super, with the Wii Remote being the recommended playstyle, but I actually got pretty far using Wii Remote + Nunchuck (this is coming from someone who got a lot of play out of Wii Sports Boxing though). You could fault it for st...

Re: This confuses me too deeply to think of a title

Strangely enough, I'm needing some auto insurance and Progressive is a strong consideration. I suppose this is a sign that SEGA can read my thoughts. That said, maybe he could use some coverage for his Cyclone car... though I've always imagined him just keeping it at Tails' workshop and polishing it...

Re: So I'm an ambassador now

Yeah thought that as well, considering the dude looks rather slow when not rolling(and as mentioned before, sorta sounds like Link). Looks more tower-defensey and less platformer, but maybe Nintendo just wanted a good Sonic game too!

The Rolling Western is looking like it might be pretty sweet. But yeah, old IP is being dried up quickly. In a time where the future of portable games is in question though, I don't blame them for sticking to their guns for a little while. Hope the "3D edition" trend cools off pretty soon. Heck, I ...

If Shadow the Hedgehog were a prequel, say a sandbox game aboard the ARK, that could have helped matters a little. Same he...

Man, seeing Classic Sonic on a skateboard just feels so 90's and so right. Glad they picked this stage, as it was always one of my favorites. And the Wanted poster cameos were something beyond my expectations(also might be a good idea to make Bark and Bean bad dudes if brought back, to fill up the r...

Shit, I think I remember this dude from the SonicHQ forums way back when I used to frequent them. Dude had a large diapered tails pic as an avatar and always seemed to be talking some drama about his man-baby ways. Yeah just... man. I mean, why does the Sonic community attract such things?

So I'm playing this on 360 due to some serendipity.

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

I got to play the demo at PAX myself. Yeah, making you unroll every time you hit the top of a hill and go into the air ruins everything. Can hardly attempt a pinball style multi-bounce attack anymore.
