Archie Sonic is probably dead

Apparently, Archie hasn't been releasing any new Sonic comics recently, and what was thought to be a prolonged hiatus is quickly turning into the abrupt cancellation of the series . According to a fan on Stadium: Alright, I’ve been holding onto some information for a while until we got some more det...

Re: GHZ Museum/Encyclopedia fact checking & ect. thread

I kinda like the idea of a Sonic/Puyo Puyo crossover, if only for a limited time promotion or something. Ringo and pals have a very "Sonic Team"-y appearance to them and they fit in better visually with Modern Sonic and company than realistic-looking humans do.

Icons include Sonic, Tails, Amy, Knuckles, Shadow, Silver, a Chao, and a ring. Unfortunately, as you m...

Re: Revenge of the nerds

Question: If Black Doom and his troops needed food so badly, why didn't they just conquer Planet Wisp?

Re: Sonic 2017

Hands up - Who actually wanted "Classic" Sonic's gameplay to return? Because the first thing I thought of when I saw him in the original trailer was "Great, more filler!". I'll be honest - I didn't even give a shit about the guy in 2011. I mean, it was fun to say "Ha ha, that sure is a passable appr...

Re: Sonic 2017

Getting total Sonic 4 vibes from that footage. It's all there - tinny music trying way too hard to evoke the MD sound chip (the melody isn't bad, but the instruments sure are), reliance on a single stage element in lieu of actual platforming (this time it's springs instead of homing attack chains), ...

It's weird that whenever Microsoft would try to push the Xbox brand in Japan, they'd always get cold feet and half-ass it - I mean, they stopped the franchise because of a bunch of online lists?

Re: Sonic 2017

I would rather see an anime-styled take on Sonic like in the early 00's. If I could quote this a hundred times (without getting banned), I would. I know a lot of people like the direction the '10s Sonic plots have gone in, and I don't really hate any of the new stories (Generations was pretty lame)...

The game is called Sonic Forces. Full livestream here , just gameplay here (boosting is back), theme song here . I think it looks OK from that 20-odd seconds of choppy off-screen footage, but the level design is pretty bland. Apparently we're getting some more footage tomorrow. The music sounds like...

Not that I doubt Taxman or anything, but, uh... still no special stages, huh? I hope they don't just toss in a repeat of one of the old ones at the last second.

More than anything, these pictures make me crave a new Sonic anime.

Yeah, I'd say pick yourself up a half-decent PC (if all you plan to play are Sonic games, you don't need anything beyond, at the absolute maximum, a mid-tier machine) and either buy the games through Steam or emulate the Dreamcast games through, I dunno, nullDC or Retroarch.

Re: OH YES Sonic Mania

Looks like there's going to be more remixed levels than original ones (you'll have to excuse me for the TSSZ link).

Hm. HMM. I liked the look of Mania's Green Hill Zone, I did, but I wonder how many zones there are going to be in total? I can't imagine more than 8 or 9...
