God damn it.

Couldn't you just drive to the factory and pay one of the underpaid employees to throw one in the garbage for you to pick up at night.

Side scrolling Sonic games were never long. In fact most 2D platformers can be completed in a few hours. I guess years of side quests spoiled our generation.

Apparently, the PC Version has been delayed until the 29th. Goddammit. I pre-bought the PC version so I could play it the day it came out (it was really cheap here in Brazil) and bought the Xbox One's Collector's Edition (it was the only one available, I do not own a Xbox One). I guess now I'll hav...

This will be the first Sonic game for me since Heroes.

EDIT: Wait, never mind, no OSX port. Oh well.

Quake 2 beat them to the punch by a couple of years.

The thing about the Mega Drive games is that monitor power-ups take a second to "kick in". (I've lost many a ring this way.) Silv's second .gif isn't a bug, it's just weird game logic. I think that was technically a crush, right? Even if rolling the spike ball can still crush Sonic at that position...

I don't understand the Caterkiller gif.

Archie's an infamously evil comic book company. I assume they have all their talent sign release forms for their creative output. If not, I'm sure they certainly do now after the Pender's fiasco.

Ironically he could still be working if he didn't fuck himself. It's so easy to get work in the comic industry as long as you hate Trump and spend all your time on Twitter.

I guess Ken wants to totally destroy his legacy.

He reminds me of John K. Penders started off decent but as time went on his drawing styles became so unbound that his work comes off as strange and ugly.

Sonic shouldn't have joints or definitive muscle tone.

Every new piece of media makes this game look less and less appealing. Where to start? Sonic getting thrown around into brick walls like Superman, Tails trying to identify Infinite with a Poke-dex, the shitty music, the lamest villain design I have seen from Sega, the obvious, tired, ruse where Infi...

Lyrics don't mean a whole lot to a song if the singer is our of key, the guitar is not tuned to proper pitch or the drummer's out of time. Most songs lyrics are nonsensical, but the rhythms, arrangements, harmonies and melodies are appealing. You can listen to lyrics in a different language and a so...

Yeah but the vocals are embarrassing terrible.

The music is good, the lyrics aren't that bad, it's just the singing that lets it down. I get the impression that the director kept on screaming at the singer to be more passionate and emotional, while the singer isn't really suited to doing such a performance. Or the song is just half-assed like e...

Seeing all those apologetic comments on that video... We get the Sonic games we deserve, people.

I assumed the remakes were on consoles, too.

I think Sega should give more control back to Sega of America because they know how to better appease core fans than SoJ could ever imagine.

My one gripe is their is a lot of textual hand holding. Par for the course at this point. Games journalists will still get on their knees and suck the big N's dick while extolling SMB1's intuitive first level. Classic games had to demonstrate to the player new mechanics with clever level design. No...

A lot more footage has been released. My one gripe is their is a lot of textual hand holding. Also, the humans from New Donk City are very manikin-esque with little animation. Very Sonic 06 looking.

OMG MARIO IS APPROPRIATING HISPANIC CULTURE!

Given the writers of this game, Shadow's reason for joining the bad guys is probably going to be "the strong deserve to rule over the weak!" or something equally abrupt, flimsy, and against his character. Remember back when Shadow had a character arch? Remember when fucking Chaos had an arch and ha...
