title: Sonic All-Stars Racing Transformed... Any Save Files?
comment:
I got this game and love it, but the difficulty to unlock all the characters and car mods in the World Tour is ridiculously hard IMO. Does anyone know of any save data available for the PS3 version? I would lie to have everything unlocked, or at least have all the stars in World Tour. Seriously, that shits extreme...

tldr: any ps3 save data for this game?

pic related: MFW i realize the requirements for unlocking everything...

Please recommend me a good game to play. I've been playing Sonic Generations for the past two weeks, it's getting really fucking boring now. Tried to complete Dawnguard, but it's a piece of shit.

Also the only enjoyable game this year was Hotline Miami.

OK, get this: Sonic Colors plus Sonic Unleashed plus Sonic 2. Awesome idea, ain't it? 
Just think about it. A FAST, WEREWOLF-LIKE CREATURE IN 2-D THAT CAN SPIN DASH AND FLY. Throw Mighty The Armadillo and Ray The Flying Squirrel in there, and it's pretty much a Sonic fan's dream game.

P.S. If you search "sonic colors unleashed" on Google Images, the picture with this post is result #1.

In this topic, we go BACK IN TIME to look at our younger selves' vidya taste. What are you proud of? What did you like that absolutely sucked?

I like to think had good taste in vidya I think even as a kid. The problem I had was that I would usually want licensed games as well. That's not to say they're all bad, but I had a lot of shitty movie tie ins and I didn't care because I was eight. We're talking Speedy Gonzalez on the SNES (which was a mediocre Sonic ripoff) and the MASK. Also, the nintendo 64 had some REALLY shitty games. My god most of my N64 library is trash. I was never into JRPGs as a kid so thankfully I wasn't too autistic when it came to socializing with people.

My teenager self was a bit pretentious. I think I've levelled a bit from it. I was around 17 when Braid first came out, so I was really into the independent scene. I still am a bit, but I'm a lot less obnoxious about it.

>Sonic '06 was the best mainstream Sonic game of its console generation. Don't get me wrong! It deserves to be on the Hall of Shame, and used in videogame design classes as the definitive bad game to show what to avoid. But the thing is, I actually find Unleashed, Colors, Generations, and 4 to be far worse. There's just a lot less to talk about in those titles.

>When I found out what Sonic '06 truly was, I thought they hit rock-bottom. Then Unleashed came along, setting the standard for future games, and sent the series burrowing underground. It was at this point that I actually started to notice things that were actually good about Sonic '06. Or at least, compared to what we've been getting more recently.

>At least the developers actually tried.
>At least you can actually control Sonic without wrestling to make him turn around.
>At least you have wide open levels, rather than metaphorical train tracks.
>At least you can play as multiple characters.
>At least they gave it an elite visual style.
>At least there was a story that you couldn't predict the ending of before you started playing.
>At least there wasn't a convoluted gimmick.
>At least there were still monitors that gave you power-ups.
>At least there was some light tactics to defeating enemies.
>At least there was some proper platforming.
>At least you could differentiate between the levels beyond what their theme was.
>At least there was a sense of pace.
>At least there were some interesting set pieces.
>At least everything wasn't abundantly cheerful and happy-go-lucky.
>At least the humans didn't look like childscribblets.
>At least there were no quick-time events.
>At least Sonic's gameplay wasn't centrally-focused on going really, really fast, and actually had you doing other things.
>At least you had to control your character virtually all the way through, rather than constantly watching the game play itself.

i really fucking like the Wii U gamepad, but I really dislike playing games line Nintendoland and ZombiU that use both. it's distracting, for example, in ZombiU to have to look down at your gamepad. 

but it's fucking amazing to play Sonic and All Stars Racing on the pad itself without the television and wander around most parts of the house. it's helluva lot nicer to lay in bed with it, too. browsing the internet, playing Sanic. the screen is big, the controller is comfy, etc.

the gamepad itself should be the sole console, because having to utilize both the TV and gamepad sucks. and handhelds like the Vita and 3DS, they're small and just don't compare.

anyone agree with this?

Last time I checked the Sonic Bundle had EVERYTHING in it.
Like Sonic 1-4, CD, Adventure 1 and 2, Generations, All-Star Racing, everything.

But now it's just these 5 bits, and the bundle still costs the same.
And it says it's saving me 76%. That it's reduced from like £90. But it's not, all of the bits individually cost LESS than the bundle.

For some reason, this stood out to me. I don't think I've ever seen a video game have fast food kids meal toys associated with it other than Mario and Sonic, and even then not since like, the 90's.

I don't know how big this is though, since Carl's Jr always gets shitty licenses for their kids meal toys these days.

This is one of the worst and most atrocious games I've ever played.
The camera is utter and complete shit.
The controls are rather crappy.
Some of the level design is downright awful and often frustrating.
Most boss battles are the worst ones I've ever played. The Sonic/Shadow fight is in the same league as Generations' final boss battle.
I could be misinterpreting it, but it seems to me you can't even bring all the shit you pick up in the levels into your Chao garden.

The worst is, it starts out pretty OK and then gets worse with nearly every level. The treasure hunting shit is the most boring crap I've played in years. One of Knuckles' levels took me OVER THIRTY MINUTES.

I've finally arrived at the final part and made it to the Sonic stage and this cuntball fucking freezes on me, with 4 lives left.
Truly, a long long time 'till touchdown.

I should have made a fucking LP out of me playing this piece of complete garbage.

Hey so I'm having a problem with my PS3, I got a few new games for Christmas (Sonic Racing, Farcry 3, Dragon's Dogma, and Borderlands 2) and each one of them has had a patch or something to install. When I fired up Sonic everything went fine. When I tried to play other games it asked to do the same but I can't seem to download them. It just sits at 0% and eventually times out. It's up to date, and I got Far Cry 3 to work by going into the system restore thing (when you hold the power button until 2 beeps) and I did file restore, said there was a corrupted file, fixed it, then Farcry 3 downloaded. Now it won't work when I try that for other games. I don't know what to do.

tl;dr my PS3 is broken and I need some help, bros. It's not my internet because as we speak I'm using Netflix on my PS3. Have some fit chicks.

I've been having strange dreams about the Wii U lately. Keep in mind, I don't own the system, and the only thing I've played on the system IRL is the Rayman demo.

Dream 1:

The console was the size of three original PS3s, in one behemoth. The controller was the size and shape of a Dreamcast/original Xbox controller. The screen was 4:3. The controls were impossible (I was playing a Sonic game), and everyone around me thought it was abysmal as a whole.

I was playing the system in the middle of a yard sale. HDTV and everything. I was distracted by the games on display for a moment, and when I returned, the TV was gone. But not the system. It was as if there was burglar who decided the Wii U wasn't worth it. The person who took the TV didn't buy it because the person taking the money was in my sight the whole time. No one asked about a TV's price.

Dream 2:

I was playing the new Zelda on the Wii U. (It looked more or less just like Skyward Sword.) The controls were once again, awful. And my playing was often interrupted by ads. Ads for acne medication and junk food stuffs.

I know it's /x/ territory, but can you attempt to interpret these dreams for me?

Hey /v/, let's have a proper Sonic thread for once, focusing on the games themselves instead of the autistic fanbase.
So, has anyone played Heroes recently? I heard that the controls are utter shit and some of the levels are way too long, but does the level design make up for it?
Also, is Shadow the Hedgehog really as bad as people make it out to be? I know the primary controversy of it is that it's 2edgy4u with the guns and minor curses, but I've also heard people say that the controls are a mix between SA2 and Heroes' (therefore pissing in a pool of piss) and other various downfalls.

Has Sonic 06 warped his mind or is he really calling GOTYAY a bad game?

title: Sonic Generations
comment:
Okay /v/, let's have a discussion about Sonic Generations, because I need some things cleared up.

First off, I loved Sonic when I was a kid, I mean the first three games on Mega Drive (I played Sonic CD and Sonic 3D but never really liked them). The music, the gameplay, loved all that shit. My family was pretty poor so I didn't get another console til the Gamecube rolled around, and Sonic Adventure 2 was one of my favourite games on it. I put so many hours into it, getting A rank on every Sonic and Shadow level (most on the others but that's another story). To this day I still think the Sonic and Shadow levels, though kinda buggy and imperfect, are still fun, playable levels (City Escape, Final Rush, Lost Highway I hold in high regard). And of course I loved the Chaos Garden.

Years later I decided to get the Sonic Generations demo off Steam. And what I found was a watered down version of the Sonic games I loved-- the 3D sections were just as imperfect, loop-the-loop-look-at-these-cool-backgrounds-we've-made sightseeing tours with jarring 2D sections, and both 3D and 2D had shitty physics and 'feel' compared to the old games.

So, in short, why the fuck does /v/ like Sonic Generations so much? It's a rehash of a rehash, fixing none of the old problems and contributing nothing new, merely trying to make a buck off nostalgia as Sonic has done for years now. Yeah anyone can say "it's fun" but can you explain why, because that's what I want to know.

True blue question:

What are some good, long and fun 360 games? Out of my entire library, 360 is the smallest with a whopping 7 games.

Sonic 06, Sonic generations, Red dead Redemption, Tales of Vesperia, Final Fantasy XIII Bioshock and Bioshock 2

Really looking for more to get on this console, what would you suggest?

In Sonic Unleashed, there is this boss fight against Eggman where you have to chase him and then the fight goes into a 2D side-scrolling perspective where you have to dodge his attacks.

In Sonic Generations, there are two similar rival battles where you chase after Silver and another against Metal Sonic where they both go into a 2D side-scrolling perspective to dodge their attacks. Also, in the second to last boss fight, you fight Eggman and the battle is almost a carbon copy of the aforementioned fight from Sonic Unleashed where you chase him and have a 2D perspective dodge segment.

They recycled that fight formula a lot, I feel cheated.

How about we post our top 10 favorite games? Just remember, your post does not need to be perfect, just list games as they come to mind, and put multiple games in one slot if you can't decide, like I do!

1. Spyro The Dragon 2 or 3
2. Spyro the Dragon 3 or 2
3. Spyro the Dragon
4. Sonic Generations or Super Mario 64
5. Super Mario 64 or Sonic Generations
6. Sonic the Hedgehog (including 2/3&K/CD)
7. Super Mario World
8. Super Mario Bros 3
9. Street Fighter Third Strike
10. Worms Armageddon

My list is somewhat boring, but I sure love my Spyro the Hedgehog Fighter 64: Armageddon World Third Generation Strike, bros.

what a disappointment.

 Hub worlds need to go away. the 3d mechanics are still as dumb as ever (invisible walls would actually help this game) and the level design wasn't as good as it could have been (though the themes and graphics were fantastic. Game also felt short. I wonder if they could have taken advantage of the Blu rays to make the game longer instead of artificially with challenge levels.

Unleashed Sonic levels were near perfect so why did the new Sonic in generations suck so much? And why take the worst boss from Unleashed and rehash it and make it even worse?

2D Sonic was ok but still felt like the level design wasn't as tailored to the different mechanics as much as it could have been.

Why are you fagets obsessed with Colors when it comes to Sonic? I'm going to be honest for a sec...

Sonic has always been about smooth movement and momentum control. The 2D portions of Sonic Colors are composed of blocky, rigid jumping. Sonic doesn't have to go fast really, as long as the flow is there. Colors...those 2D portions, even when playing them with max skill, are blocky, slow, and ruin the flow. They require hitting switches, messing with shit, and jumping up and down statically. It's not fun, or even challenging really. It's just an annoyance.

Convince me that I'm wrong if you think otherwise.

It seems like some people here don't exactly understand 'Tool Assisted Speedruns'.

To start: no one is claiming that TAS runs require more skill than real time speedruns
TAS' are intended to provide entertainment, and demonstrate the limits of a game.
Understand that saying something that was done in a TAS is POSSIBLE on console is not saying necessarily saying that it is VIABLE. When people say "This is possible to do on console", all they mean is that they have not used any cheats or done anything outside the games limits that is not possible on original hardware. A good example of this is the recently released '120 stars' TAS of Super Mario 64's inputs being plugged into a real console.
>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BFBGWrGT1E8
While real time runs typically require more of a time and effort investment, there is certainly a specific skill involved in TASing as well: If you look at certain TASers (such as SwordlessLink, sonickpacker, and Nahoc) work, there is a clear skill difference when compared to TASers such as [spoiler]myself[/spoiler].

If you think that Tool Assisted Speedruns are somehow 'cheating' or completely invalid, you don't understand the point and deserved to be grouped with the youtube kiddies who comment similar things on popular TAS videos.

As the subject implies, I have six copies to get rid of. While I know it isn't very likely, I would like to trade them for Bastion, Giana Sisters, or any Sonic game that is not Generations, or Adventure DX.

I do know, however, how common these things are, and that my asking is probably moot. So if you want a copy, and have no intention to trade, just say so, and give your steam name. I'll be happy just giving them away to be rid of them. Thanks a bundle.

What the hell happened to enjoying video games?

Seriously; A few tips for all of /v/, follow them or not, All I'm trying to do is enlighten and help this failure and mockery of a board. This board has gone to hell, and it's laughed at almost as much as /b/ is at this point

>Opinions

For gods sake people, if someone enjoys a game, it's their right to enjoy it. "Taste" is a concept made up by idiots like the majority of this board to classify people based on their opinions. See, the thing about an opinion is that it's RELATIVE. How difficult is it for you elitist morons to accept that some people differ in though process than you? If someone enjoys something that you don't, ignore it and don't post, or, if you feel the absolute need to post, don't bash them for liking something you don't.

A phrase I enjoy classifying /v/ by is simply "NOOO STOP ENJOYING WHAT I DON'T"

>REHASH REHASH REHASH NO ORIGINALITY

Seriously, who gives a fuck? If the company is making money on it, they're going to rehash whatever the fuck they want. sure, there hasn't been a truly original mario or sonic game in years, but they're still two of the largest [spoiler] and most profitable [/spoiler] franchises of all time. Once they stop making money, they'll do something original, until then, deal with it, or make your own goddamned videogame. If you don't like it, change it.

And finally
>Casual

That goddamned work needs to be a bannable offense. There's no such thing as "casual". The word itself is a complete and total joke. If you honestly have to base your opinion of a group or a specific individual on their skill level, that says something about your tolerance and attitude in general.

/v/, this place used to be about videogames...and more specifically, it was full of ENJOYING videogames. In the last few years, all /v/ has become is a board filled with hate, anger and intolerance. I just beg that this gets through to some people.

Ok, in my video game design class yesterday, we had to discuss ways to improve and innovate genres, and how genres can stagnate. This fucking loser gets up, and explains some dumbass bullshit about how fighting games as a genre have stagnated, and how they had so much potential to evolve and never did. He then said the genre never evolved because the fanbase never let it, and then brought up shit like PowerStone and Smash Bros. saying those were the right step to evolving the genre. Then the fucker dissed SF2, saying most fighters copy the same "old SF2" formula, and won't try anything truly new.

Is this nigga on crack? Never evolved? The genre evolved TONS, and no, the games aren't all like SF2, they just follow the formula that game set, no different from FPS games following the formula Doom set. Guilty Gear, KoF, Tekken, how the fuck are these not evolutions of the genre? Hell, Skullgirls innovated the genre like fucking crazy, why avoid mentioning that huh? PowerStone and Smash aren't even fighting games, how can they be an evolution of a genre they aren't part of? It's like saying Project Gotham Racing is the evolution of fucking Sonic games.

And get this, the faggot and his friends are gonna design a fighting game with easy as fuck inputs, saying games like Dota and LoL have very simple inputs yet are very complex, and that the age of the "qcf" is dead. What a fucking scrub ass faggot, I hope he fucking chokes at lunch.

Hey /v/, I hope all is well with you folks. Just a quick question.
I was busy cleaning up mu my controllers and cables and found my Game Boy in it . So, I went super anal and tied all the cables neatly and everything and went up to clean up my Game Boy. 
I also found my Game Gear. I went to see if the Game Gear worked. But unfortunately, the screen was dark. Even when adjusting the brightness. I had to literally play Sonic 2 tilted away from me just to even see anything. Has anyone had a problem like that? I tried the Game Boy and it fuckin' worked like a champ.

It upsets me to know that there are people out there who actually think Sonic CD is the best 2D Sonic game, when it's objectively the worst one.

The only way to enjoy this game is to completely ignore the god-awful time mechanic and just run to the end of the level like every other Sonic game and get the bad end.

I get that this was obviously meant to be more exploration based, but the boring clusterfuck level design and the horrible mechanics of the time posts completely ruin that for me.

So what do people have against Story in Sonic Games anyway? Not Super Serious Stories like... well Adventure 2, Shadow, 06, those I know why we don't want them.

But people apparently have this mad on that Sonic should never have any plot at all. Even though we have games like 3&K, and Adventure which show what kind of story a Sonic Game should use, or the current Archie comics which again show (Light hearted, funny, character focused, can do drama when it needs to)

Seriously what the fuck?

Reddit claim to have info on the new Sonic game

>Propel is allegedly inspired by the successful re-release of Christian Whitehead’s Sonic CD, featuring a slight modification on the Modern Sonic design, and multiple Metal Sonics for the hero to tackle. Dialogue, plot and story background will remain at a minimum, and gameplay will encourage exploration, according to the post.

Eggman is allegedly set to restart the Death Egg project in Propel, and Tails will be part of the adventure as well, again assuming a utility role a la Sonic 4: Episode II and helping Sonic get to high, hard to reach places. Propel allegedly includes a three act structure, plus three additional “challenge” acts that are hidden and can be unlocked while playing. Chaos Emeralds are set to return in this alleged game, and that means Super Sonic should as well.

If nothing else, it’s an interesting read. In terms of legitimacy, we honesty could go either way on this, but we’re labeling it RUMOR so you don’t get too excited–just don’t shoot the messenger. If it does verify, would you be excited to play something like this? Tell us below in the comments. When we have a better translation of the Japanese, we will pass that along.

Remember when Sonic the Hedgehog was a simple game about a super-fast hedgehog rescuing cute little animals from an industrialist parody of Teddy Roosevelet in vast, bizarre environments?

>Evidently feeling that third-person action was where all the money had been hiding from them, Sega continued the gibbering line of reasoning established by Sonic and the Black Knight with Sonic Unleashed.

>Sonic is already a hedgehog, so we are confused by the "werehog" terminology. However, we are even more confused by the fact that, in his werehog form, Sonic has elastic limbs like Stretch Armstrong that allow him to flail his way through bad guys and achieve the least subtle God of War ripoff since God of War II.

>When Sonic Unleashed failed to fill the gaming community's pants with excitement, Sega decided to give their struggling mascot guns and a motorcycle and changed his name to that of a cool badass (see "very old man's concept," above).

What's the deal with the general dislike of Team Chaotix??

I really don't see what's so offensive about these characters when compared to the likes of Tikal, Cream and Big the fucking cat. Plus these bad-ass dudes were responsible for one of the best pieces of music from any Sonic game in existence, their fucking THEME SONG.

Also they were part of SONIC HEROES which I still regard as one of my favourite, if not THE best Sonic game of all time.

Why is it so controversial to dislike this game? I can only imagine it's because people of a certain generation played it as babbies and have fond memories of it.

The Sonic and Shadow levels are the best part, and they're mediocre. I'm saying this while comparing them to other platformers of the time. The Robotnik and Tails sections are bearable but tedious. And the Knuckles and Rouge levels are a complete pain in the cunt.
And that's all the gameplay, since I won't bother complaining about a Sonic game having a shit storyline.
Is it JUST the chao garden? Is that really just all it is?

Does anyone who didn't play this as a little kid, or who doesn't have autism, think this is an incredible game?

So I'm browsing Youtube and in my recommendations, there was apparently a documentary on Sonic. Not a fan one. Like, an actual documentary made by Sega, to promote Sonic Gen. So I watched it and it was pretty cool. It went through the entire history of Sonic from it's base origin and I learned some stuff I didn't know like how Sonic 2 was apparently the first simultaneous world release ever.

Anyway, the point is, I'm watching the entire thing and it ends and I realize they don't mention Sonic 06 at all. Not even screenshots. They show stuff from a bunch of the games including spinoffs but when they go through the years, they talk about Adventure, Heroes and then they kinda skim over the Shadow and just kinda stop going into detail there and jump to Unleashed and the rest. I don't know. That was just kinda funny to me. Just how far it'll go that Sega really just wants to bury that shit

So on /co/ someone decided to drop in to our marathon of Sonic Comics with a lot of prototype Sonic 06 Information. Dropped in god damn monsterous essay format by a former Sega of Japan employee.

In Summation
>Elise, Silver and Blaze all came from the same core character Venice who wasn't a human but another animal.
>Venice was planned to be Shadows 'Amy Rose' rounding out his team
>At the same time pretty much everything to do with Sonic's story in the game originally belonged to Shadow. He was assigned as bodyguard to Venice, and all those weird levels where they needed magical powers to hover over quicksand and all that were originally handled by Shadows ability to... actually hover with his hover shoes
>Venice actually was Iblis, not a container, The entire plot point of the world turning on Shadow which really doesn't serve a purpose in the game was that in the current time line Mephilis manipulated the world into crucifying him as a way of goading Iblis into just destroying the world
>Silver was Shadow and Venice's son. Because he's TRUNKS! Amy and Sonic were the people who raised him since his dads dead and his mom's a space monster.
>Silver goes back in time to fight Iblis, who's his mom.
>Mephilis and Iblis are two beings that make up a whole, sort of like the relationship between Chaos and Tikal, and Light/Dark Gaia, and the Biolizard/Shadow. If Shadow is the ultimate Artificial Lifeform, then Solaris was meant to be the Super Dimensional Lifeform.

Sounds really sue-y right? that was the plan, they basically planned for a chick-game. Full details here, though keep in mind it is a Japanese person translating into english so he doesn't quite grasp the language.

Also there's an entire section on Lancelot and Galahad that is a mind trip

Pic related, I know GGs have been going through it but I decided to give it another go with my friends, first time I've played it since the game came out. It's still a big of a wreck as I remember, but it's fun to be astonished with someone else in moments like Sonic no-clipping through a wall and being sucked into outer space to his death.

Face it, Sega is one of the best companies around. they're basically Nintendo-tier with all of their IPs and hardware they have developed, but they don't pander to the children and family market. If they had one the console wars of the 80s ans 90s and we would be living in a golden age of gaming.

>Looking to commission an artist who can design a Sonic the Hedgehog tattoo for me. I would like something more dynamic than the average clip art that has been done a thousand times. I'd also like the artist to create a larger Sonic artwork for my home. Willing to pay a high price for the artist who can do it right. Thanks!

So I had 400 Points on xbox and decided to buy the wonderful game of Sonic Adventure. I never owned a Dreamcast or Gamecube to experience this marvel and I've actually only heard good things about it.

The thing is though...I fucking hate it, I want to find the lead developer of this game and tear his eyes out, it is fully of glitches, horrid voice acting, and the story is just bogus. 

What does /v/ think of this game?

Hey, /v/. I have a question that I thought some of you might be able to provide some insight on.

What you see in the pic are the backs of two consoles - on bottom, the Sega Dreamcast. On top, an FZ-10 model 3DO. Spefically, you're looking at their A/C Out ports.
My question to you: why are they exactly the same? One cord works with both consoles; I tested it myself and they'll both play games. Did Sega have some sort of deal with 3DO or Panasonic, or did they use the same manufacturer or something?
Any insight is appreciated.

So, Space Colony Bark has always said fucking weird shit about the development of Sonic '06, Silver is Shadow's son out of wedlock, Iblis was Elise who was Shadow's love interest, Amy is Silver's nanny and fucking weird shit like that...

people has said that he was in fact an employee of SoJ during Sonic '06's development and that he indeed has inside info.

However everyfuckingbody takes whatever Bark sais about Sanic with a mountain of salt since never what he ever said made any fucking sense, so, here is the question, anyone out there in /v/ has any proof that the weird fuckshit Bark is/was infact an employee of SEGA and all that crazy ass info is actually reliable?

>That's ultimately what has happened to Blue Core Studios, a video production team which has created a 18 minute, 31 second short which focuses on humanity's struggle against Robotnik - with the help of a certain blue animal. It also features a short cameo by Knuckles at the end.

/v/, I've finished all the games I have so now I'm in a predicament. I need some new games.

I've always been interested in the God of War and Devil May Cry series, so which collection should I buy? God of War Saga is going for $35-40, so while DMC is cheaper it provides less games. But since DMC is cheaper I'll be able to throw in another game, maybe Vanquish or Sonic Generations, which are all games I'm interested in.

So bottom line is:
God of War Saga vs. DMC Collection+Vanquish

I'm also open to any other recommended games you guys might have. PS3 only though. I'm particularly interested in those HD Collections the PS3 has, some of them look like really good deals.

Why didn't Kessler just kill John if he knew who the beast is already?

How are Pokemon like Dialga who completely controls the flow of time with his heartbeat,Palkia that keeps space stable with every breath he takes, and many other pokemon are still able to rule there domain when getting caught by a Pokeball if it turns all there life data into digital data for easy PC storage?

How come Sonic always loses the Chaos Emeralds? It was never stated they relocate after all 7 being used at once? 

Why was Shadow designed to look like Super Sonic? Also why did none of Sonic and Friends looked shocked after encountering him in Sonic Heroes after his death in Adventure 2?

How can Ratchet saves a whole village of Fongoids ten years in the past but not be able to save the Lombaxes?

How is there still Gecko's and RAYs still active in MGR if Sunny shut down The Patriots system for good?

Sonic the Hedgehog and autism.

You know, I've been thinking. This correlation only seems to apply to everything post-Genesis Sonic. Everything churned out from their cesspool hails from Sonic Adventure and up.

But why? What's the attraction? Is it the anime influence? The over exaggerated proportions? 

Someone explain this to me. Just trying to comprehend why this phenomena exists.

Some I'd like to see are Ganondorf vs. Bowser, there are a few other Link battles as well. Oh and this pic, I'd think Ness vs. some other psychic would be a good match.

Also, did you agree with the outcome? Were there some death battles you didn't agree with? I can think of one or two at least (Sonic vs. Mario, Wily vs. Robotnik).

Let's make a thread about character evolution and the things you would have done different, those you wouldn't have done at all. 
Well, in other words, are you satisfied with a character evolution and why ?

I'll start with Sonic. I'm fairly sure he would be better if he didn't talk. I may have discovered him with Adventure, what made me a fan is that Sonic CD intro.
He was more into his heroic role and "cool" while not bragging about it or showing how easy things are.
The older he gets, the more arrogant he is and makes everything so easy because he's "so damn cool" but in a way where you just want him to shut the fuck up.

Let's get a Sega Saturn thread going, and try not to act like children with console war bullshit

What's your favorite Saturn game?

Mine is Burning Rangers as it's one of the funnest games ever. Sure, it may look fuck-hideous and the camera is all kinds of retarded, but the gameplay is wholly unique, challenging and addictive. The controls make you feel like you can do anything and dodging explosions never gets old. It makes me wish Sonic Team would go back to making original games like this and NiGHTS rather than doing Sonic over and over again

Most Sonic bosses are awful, but the last boss of Colors was actually really great.

Any chance of these guys going bankrupt this year?

While indirectly wishing for people to be made redundant is harsh, SEGA have a load of decent franchises that they ruin through poor management and shitty localisation: Sonic, VF, VC, Yakuza and their older ones like Shenmue and JSR.

Ninty would be my personal bet for buying them up but SCE wouldn't too be bad either if they actually brought the games over.

What is the dumbest thing you have ever heard relating to Sonic the Hedgehog? It could be related to anything Sonic related: games, comic books, you name it. For me, it's the consistent lie that speed is the most important part of the game. Sega's the one that implanted this idea, and it's stuck with gamers ever since. I have more fun on just about every Sonic game the first time through and going a moderate pace than when I know the route and go maximum speed.

If the dumbest thing you heard was "someone said X was good when it was a shitty game" or the opposite, I envy you to no end.

So this officially went kickstarter to make it accessible to various platforms and help finish it off with animated cutscenes. It's nearly hit the really tiny funding goal. How long until an autistic fanbase settles in and ruins everything?

Okay, so, how about this to fix Sonic: we split the series in two, going off of Sonic Generations.

>one based on modern Sonic

Galaxy 1 & 2
Sonic Colors
Unleashed (The PS360 version was way better, and even then it wasn't that great of a game)
Epic Mickey (Stopped after the 3rd level, bored me to hell)

Donkey Kong Country Returns
Klonoa
Kirby's Epic Yarn (Best one since Super Star imo)
Kirby's Return to Dreamland

So I'm playing Sonic Adventure DX on an emulator on my computer. I'm on Knuckles' scenario and I'm at the part in the Mystic Ruins where you're supposed to battle Sonic right before the Egg Carrier appears and steals the Emeralds. The problem is that Sonic won't appear in that spot and the story can't continue. I've tried resetting the emulator,leaving the area,dying,going into another level. Any ideas?

Hello. I work for a gaming journalism website which the name of does not really matter right now.

What DOES matter is that I've just returned from an under-wraps press conference from one of our favorite developers, SEGA. What they revealed were three games that they wanted to generate as much hype for as possible. But what fun is that? Allow me to reveal them all right now!

[spoiler]Sonic: Turbo - Looks like a Sonic Adventure 3. It looks to run off of the same engine as recent titles but you can play as Tails, Knuckles and a robot that looks like one of the ones from Sonic Heroes. Looks pretty fun and more about 3D platforming than speed.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Alex Kidd: Revival - the "3DS announcement" that's supposed to be coming. Looks really fun, it's a new Alex Kidd game that has a ton of RPG and Beat-'em-Up elements. Graphics are really nice, I'd even say on par with Luigi's Mansion 2.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Infected - this was the big one of the night. It's a sandbox/survival horror game with a focus on shelter and finding as many survivors as possible during a zombie apocalypse in a huge city. The main character reminds me of Dante and his signature weapon is an axe.[/spoiler]

I've played through the first level as Sonic and beaten the first eggman boss and am currently left on emerald coast with no real indication of what/where I'm supposed to do/go next.
Even so the game really does not seem promising at all, in fact it seems pretty shitty. Does the game get better at all or is it pretty much a retro, better reviewed Sonic 06?

So i've never played any SANIC games in my life, so i decided to just marathon a whole series. Right now, i just finished Sonic & Knuckles... and i don't get it. Why this series is so popular? Why Sonic has become one of the world's best-known video game characters along with Mario and pretty cool guy from Halo? I mean the first SANIC game was okay, the second one was the same shit, so i decided to try SANIC CD beacuse everyone is saying that this is the best SANIC game ever. I played, and it was just OKAY. Not the bad game, but not the masterpiece either. Just a 5.5/10 game. Then i played Sonic 3 and Sonic & Knuckles and that game MAYBE was slightly better than the first, second and CD. 

I just don't get it. I really had to force myself to finished these games. SANIC games are just.... boring. When i'm playing mario games or some other good platformers i'm not bored. I'm want to finish the game. But when i'm playing SANIC... well i don't care 
really
. 
Now i'm downloading Sonic Adventure DX and Sonic Adventure 2. I heard that these games aged poorly. Well, i said that i will finish pretty much every SANIC game. Well, maybe except the '06 beacuse it's a fucking piece of shit and beacuse it's only for X360 and PS3, and of course i don't have any console LEL

So i guess i'm going to get back to "work". Sonic 1 & 2 for Master System - HERE I GO....

Homeworld for example. THQ bought Relic(developers of homeworld) and has all rights to the Homeworld IP and has pretty much all(if not all, someone correct me) of their games on steam, but NOT the homeworld series?

But yeah, no problems with Silver. He's really naive but he's a guy filled with justice and wants to help make bad things better. And that's okay. Plus, he's got Qunton Flynn voicing him now and that boss fight against him in Generations was awesome.

Currently up on both Kickstarter (already exceeded 200% of goal), and Greenlight.
Hurfdurf OC (do not steal) sonic fan game thing going full commercial release.

I was pretty skeptical of it, but the demo actually handles pretty well, feels alot closer to an old sonic game than Sonic 4 did, whilst being at least different enough to not just feel cloney.

Sprite work is disturbingly Project-X -ish though.

Im just gonna put it out there. I honestly and fervently believe that all of these Sonic levels like Carnival Night and Collision Chaos etc are heavily populated by either humans, mobians, or anthropomorphic animals like sonic.

Look at that writing. Why wouldn't it be populated if there is some language there? Look at those gleaming buildings, who built else built them? Not Robotnik since it's good future.

Mobius is the PRIME planet of the Sonic Series before Sonic Adventure. You are CONTRACTUALLY OBLIGATED to prove me wrong if you disagree.

So Sonic is never getting a sequel to The Dark Brotherhood because that game was shittier than a shit sandwich double down of shit.

However is the concept of a Sonic RPG inherently broken? I mean you would think it would have an easier time transitioning than Mario did what with having actual characters not cardboard cut-outs.

Reposting from a thread I saw earlier. This story is fucking gold. 

I had a friend, lets call him Clyde. 
These are the stories of Clyde and I, they are based on factual events. Viewer discretion is advised. 

Let me set the mood for you. It is 2001. Autism is little known, and we all just thought Clyde was strange. Turns out he was full blown autistic. But we had no idea. He was a good and loyal friend, and never tried to fuck anyone over, he was just a little fucked in the head. 

Part one- Clyde Begins
>2001
>Sleeping over at a friends house (not Clyde, but Clyde is there) 
>Play some fuckin Perfect Dark, play YuGiOh 
>Just hangin out, playing games eatin pizza. Sleepover stuff.
>Get tired, go to bed watching Conan the Barbarian
>Fall asleep
>Wake up to strange sounds, cant tell what is going on
>look around, my eyes are still blurry from sleep
>As my sight adjusts, look over at Clyde's sleeping bag EMPTY!
>Look over to other bros, fast asleep in their bags
>Look back over in Clyde's direction, see something by the wall.
>Clyde is having sexual relations with a banana chair
>I nearly shit my pants
>He is full on penetrating the chair
>I crawl out of my bag, and army crawl towards the stairs.
>Upstairs, make a sandwich
>Sleep rest of night in kitchen, never speak of it again.

That was the first really strange thing that I ever saw out of him, other than autismal quirks, loving Sonic, the usual signs of autism we are familiar with today...

Why does Nintendo get so much shit for 'rehashes'? They have a couple of great IP which they develop in-house. Stuff like Zelda or Mario is what the development team does best. And even then, occasionally they try something new like Pikmin, Luigi's Mansion. Yet people seem to get fucking mad when they do what they do best. Why is this, but we never hear shit like:

>Gee Ubisoft, making another Assassin's Creed? Nice rehashes.
>Gee Sonic Team, making another Sonic game? Nice rehashes.
>Gee Paradox, making another grand strategy game? Nice rehashes.

Might your body be ready?

The source elaborates that the console version of this new game will be sticking with the recent formula seen in Sonic Unleashed (Daytime), Sonic Colours and Sonic Generations where gameplay switches between full 3D movement and 2D side-scrolling sections. Multiple routes through a stage will return, but this time you will have an incentive to play through them all. Each route in a stage will lead to one of two or three exits at the end that will each take you to a different stage. You will always end up at the same final stage, though. Our source says final stage count hasn’t been decided, but the developers are trying for a least 20 diferent stages, not including boss battles.

Character wise, our source says you will begin the game with Sonic and unlock other characters to play as by completing stages. It’s been made clear that this doesn’t mean 20+ characters are available, though. “For example, you might unlock Knuckles in any one of three stages. Sometimes, if you already have a character that would be unlocked first, a different one may be unlocked. Altogether we’re looking at about 10 different characters to play with, and no, Sonic isn’t getting any new friends. All of the playable characters will be existing Sonic characters.”

Man, I fucking love my girlfriend, but she is the ultimate in Sonic fantard technology. In our day-to-day life, she's totally fine. She's perfect, y'know, besides the sonic thing.. She's sweet and funny and smart, and she's got a nice butt. I'm gonna marry this girl.

But fuck, she's only like that because I told her point blank how fucked I think the whole Sonic thing is. For the most part, this is where I drop the issue because, as I stated before, she's not beyond reasoning. But still, it bothers me to no end, She's always drawing stupid fanart, or roleplaying with her creepy autismal internet buddies. She recently opened her own roleplaying forum, for goodness sake. She's watched every cartoon and she's read just about every comic, too. She justifies it with "I'VE BEEN A LOYAL SONIC FAN SINCE I WAS FOUR YEARS OLD AND DURRRRR"
To that I say, who cares? I loved sonic when I was a kid too. I even liked Colors and Generation. Hell, I BOUGHT Generations.

I guess I'm grateful I found someone I can really connect with, but it's a real pain in the ass sometimes.

The Sonic fanbase has to be the worst fanbase in video games.

I used to think that Chris Chan was just an anomaly, but apparently they are all just as autistic. Cracked did an article on the worst video game spin-offs that rightly tore Sonic fans a new one.

http://www.cracked.com/article_20158_the-6-most-baffling-video-game-spinoffs_p2.html

They made cheap jokes, like Shadow and Sonic being the same character, and the comments are filled with Sonic fans taking it literally. Like actually literally, the way an Autistic person would.

What is it about the Sonic franchise that attracts Autistic people?

http://www.sonicstadium.org/2013/01/rumour-sega-to-announce-new-sonic-game-next-month/

>Sources close to SEGA have informed The Sonic Stadium that the publisher intends to announce/tease a new game within the Sonic the Hedgehog series next month. Sonic fans will recall that February 2nd is of course what SEGA calls ‘Hedgehog Day’, a day the company usually likes to tease fans about upcoming Sonic games. However, one of our sources states that the game won’t be announced until mid-February, while another just says we “will hear about it from official sources next month”. It’s likely SEGA could tease a reveal on Hedgehog Day and make a proper announcement later in the month.

>One source has shared what they allege to be details about the new game. The game’s title doesn’t appear to be finalized yet, but its platforms are. It will be released on Wii U, PS3, 360, 3DS, PS Vita, PC, and “Next gen” consoles. This source says anything involving these new consoles is strictly confidential to people at the top of the company, so they unfortunately don’t have any information to share about those versions. As for the other versions, the source states the console, PC and PS Vita versions will be identical aside from the graphical differences, while the 3DS version will be another Sonic Rush styled game.

So, I just got Sonic Racing Transformed . . . (WiiU)

This game is pretty good. It seems like it has some actual difficulty in it, opposed to the 50% luck in MK.

Lets talk about this game.
My complaints so far:
>TIME OVER
>The game looks like shit on the gamepad. I played one of those party games where you are the ball, and it looked super blurry. Whats up with that? Mario and Nintendoland look super crisp compared to this. This is in comparison to a CRT TV too.
>No sound from the gamepad other than engine and player grunts. This means no sound from party games for the gamepad users.

do you guys really think this game is good?
Had it for the GameCube, not that different from the Dreamcast version. Levels are confusing as hell, voice acting is terrible, the translation uses ancient expressions. I didn't play the first one until later, so I was a bit confused. I hate retarded 3 hour tutorials as much as the next guy, but this game has NO tutorials at all. beat it in 5 hours, and I found out I got D on all the missions, so I went for the thing found in all Japanese, and in specific sonic games: ratings on levels so you keep playing. Honestly, after the knuckle/rogue level, there's really nothing else to look for since you beat it already. It doesn't give you a challenge, It's not entertaining, it's just frustrating as hell and a desperate attempt for you to keep playing. Do you guys know what I'm saying? A game is to be challenging, involve thought. The challenge in these games is to replay the levels until you got AA rating or some other shit.Glitches are plentiful, story sucks ASS, and it's just not that fun! I only played because of the garden thingy after the levels, where you can breed and play with those cute blue thingies. What where they called again?

I grew up with Nintendo games, and had a N64 during the playstation/n64/saturn era. The only playstation games I have ever played were Final Fantasy 8 (had a PC version), and Chrono Cross. 

I missed out on an entire generation of games (playstation), so what are the absolute best games for it that I should download? I figured I'd start with Crash Bandicoot, since from what I remember he was essentially Sony/playstation's mascot at the time. I'm a big fan of Sonic, Mario and Banjo Kazooie platforming type games. 

So far I'm not a huge fan of Crash, are the second or third games any better? Linear platforming is okay, kind of interesting that it's essentially a 3D sidescroller but most of the levels are so samey, the music is incredibly bland, and I have no investment in the characters, I hope the others are better. 

I started playing Crash Team racing, which I am thoroughly enjoying (except for the bland music), it's just like Diddy Kong Racing but with a weird enunciating tiki head and without catchy music. 

So what does /v/ recommend?

I seriously don't give a shit about his nervous dog or his trashy apartment or his fat sister, I want more gameplay videos and he's not delivering.

Nobody else out there bothered to grind up to millions of hitpoints in a game like Might & Magic, or bothered to find 500 ways to drown Tails in the Sonic games. And now he's abandoning that shit for mundane crap.

So is there any other eccentric, mirror-fearing, number-obsessed videogamer out there who can take his place?

I don't want to believe it any more than everyone else, but I'm not gonna grasp for straws. Unless these characters share a character slot with Sonic or what Sakurai said doesn't count Snake and Sonic, you're not gonna play as these characters in the upcoming smash bros. This is Nintendo all-stars, not Nintendo vs the cast of Sonic the hedgehog. Stop expecting to see more Sonic characters.

Let's hear about WHY you guys didn't like Sonic '06, yet cum all over Sonic Generations when all it was was a shitty reimagining of decent levels in the past? You fail as a Sonic fan if you actually like modern sonic and Generations, and even more so if you like Colors.

I'm getting really sick of you scrubs sucking Sega's cock.

How does the 2D gameplay in ANY WAY compare to Sonic 1-3? How do you find this slow gameplay that isnt focused on momentum and movement to the original style that can even be found in Sonic Rush somewhat?

Sonic Colors:

/v/ tell me about this game , Sonic Generations. I'm still on the fence about buying it.

I heard that Sonic's "friends" make an appearance, as in the furries. Do they actual appear in gameplay though?

Are there areas where you play with Tails, or as Knuckles?

what does it mean your furry friends 'help' you. Tell me what I'm getting with this game.

>I'd wager stuff like Uncharted or Halo 4 still look on par or better than what the average PC user plays. The generational jump will be good enough to provide comparatively good looking games, even if the extremely vocal minority that spends hundreds of dollars on upgrades every two years keeps being annoying to justify their expenses. I'd rather spend the money in games for the next 5-6 years.

Holy shit on a strawberry this game sucks ASS.

No, seriously. I bought this game several years ago and remember playing the fuck out of it, hating the werehog stages and loving the daytime stages. But I forgot the agonizing amounts of "Visual novel quests" between unlocking each individual fucking door to even GET to the next level. 

Good god, I can't even get back into this game if I tried. Professor pickle can suck a dick, Chip is annoying as fuck. these random humans all over have NOTHING good to say that isn't first grade speech. 

What annoys me most of all in this game, is how it took our childhood and threw it back in our face. For those who grew up with sonic-sonic3, That first cinematic was like a dream come true. 

...And then it went downhill

"W-what i-is it Silt?"asked the 4 year old fox who was the size of a toddler.
"I said come here NOW!"command Silt the one tailed wolf.
The fox came closer and was suddenly punch in the fell to the ground and was grabbed by the tails and was now being pulled by his tails.
When he reach the light he herd cheering and a very mean person named Hang Nail.(not exactly from Tails new beginning or any other ones).
"Hey homeless two tails thought i wouldn't find you well i did!"shouted the bully

Can we name musical artists that actually are kind of rockstars/famous and also make videogame soundtracks? (having your song included on a soundtrack, like in GTA or Tony Hawk doesn't count).

I can think of Trent Reznor (Quake), Masato Nakamura (Sonic 1 and 2) and Keiichi Suzuki (Mother 1 and 2).

There's also Tallarico or Spencer Nielsen but even if they claim to be professional musicians (and they are), they aren't really that famous outside of videogame circles.
Suzuki and Nakamura aren't famous outside of Japan, but they're legends over there, and the qworks they did for videogames were merely a side project for them, compared to their works with their respective bands/solo careers.

Mmm, ok. I can sorta see this. It's a good game, but not perfect.
>9. Fable
Agree TES>>>>>>>>> Fable
>8. Fallout 3
Well, Fallout isn't that well loved, but ok. I agree with his points, but I always assumed everyone agreed on that.
>7. Smash Melee
Yeah... No Melee >>>> Brawl. Sure Brawl has more content, but Melee is more balanced and has better gameplay. Project M was made for a reason.
>6. Left4Dead
Yeah, I agree here. Fun Game, but very overrated
>5. Sonic the Hedgehog
Was never a Sonic fan I have no opinion on this.
>4. FF8
People LIKE this game?
>3. Metroid Prime
Oooooooo Boy. NO Fuck you. Prime > Super Metroid, and Super is fantastic, but Prime has better atmosphere and it's a leap in the series. One could argue Super is better and I'd be Ok, but calling Prime overrated is asking for a bitch slap.
>2. GoldenEye
Agree, game has aged poorly
>Legend of Zelda, A Link to the Past.
No, FUCK YOU! No. LttP isn't my favorite Zelda. Majora's Mask is my fave. But the most overrated Zelda is hands down OoT, and LttP is fantastic. JonTron confirmed for idiot. Now I see why this video isn't on his main channel. Now I see why he says the stupid shit he says on Game Grumps.

Yes I'm fucking mad, fuck this shit.

Hello from SUMO (Developer)
Hello, 

So first, a quick apology that some of you are experiencing issues playing the game. We've worked closely with SEGA and we've had a HUGE amount of testing, but it seems a few things have come to light now we've got so many more players and so many more PC configurations being used!

The first thing I would suggest if you're having any problems is to make sure you're up to date with your video card drivers. We've extensively tested the game on current drivers for many kinds of Nvidia, ATI, Intel devices and more, so generally, if you're having strange visual problems this should sort it out.

In the meantime, we're looking into the following with a view to getting them solved as quickly as possible.

Multiplayer 'Match No Longer Available' when playing over multiple regions.
Missing objects on older cards that don't support INTZ.
Older DirectInput pads causing pointer drift in launcher.
Vsync and 120Hz related weirdness.
Steam Voice chat - option to shut it up :P
Instability on certain hardware.

I've already got the team looking into all of the above, so rest assured we're aiming to correct these for you as soon as possible.

I know there have also been questions on if the Metal Sonic + OutRun DLC will be made available. I spoke to SEGA about this earlier today and this will be made available shortly, I'll let them pick that one up once it's out!

Again, apologies if you're experiencing problems, hopefully we can get all the above sorted out quickly and an update pushed to Steam in the very near future.

comment:
So Sega is officially back on their A game.
Their previous kart racer was aight, albeit generic as shit, but this game is phenomenal.
Its reminds me of diddy kong racing more than anything. so il do a pros and cons and we can talk about this game.
Pros:
>Drifting requires skill
>Items require thought(timing/aim)
>Mods don't unbalance any of the racers
>If you can pull away in first, you'll probably keep it
>Game is fucking brutal
I dont know how many times i thought i was slaying a race for a well placed RC car to fuck me in the ass and meemee take the lead
>Tracks feel actually reminiscent and not just included because they have to be
>Tracks are well designed
Afterburner, nuff said
>Transformations are very seemless and bog down the game
>Graphics and sound are both very good with a few exceptions
>Local multi support for pc
this was a huge deal when i found out, me and my roommates spent easily 4 hours doing co op world tour
>Allstars
They can change a race in the right spot, went from 7th to 1st once
Cons:
>No Vanellope von schweet
its barely a con but if Ralph can go turbo, why no vanellope
>Danica Patrick and her Hotwheel
its just weird
>All or nothing World Tour
call it casual but I thought if I got third in a hard world tour race that id at least get 2 stars
(i was playing co op, so i dont know if that affects it)
>It's hard
it's not really a con for /v/, i love how difficult this game can be at certain times, but it makes me wonder how the kids will like it
>Allstars
They can change a race in the right spot
>TF2 and Ralph voices
I know TF2 is the actuall guys but it sounds off, and NOT Ralph mentioning getting rekt gets kind of old when its not even John C Riley
>Can't change graphical settings in game
not a big deal, but it kind of plays into this next part
>Ralph and Danicas model
Those soulless eyes that look painted over top the model
Other than that i honestly can't think of more Cons, whether your'e a Sonic fan or not I think you'll enjoy this game

title: Watch out for Sonic Racing + all stars transformed
comment:
anyone considering pirating the pc release of this, don't.

thankfully I pay attention to my shit since I do a lot of the malware calls at work.

This past weekend I downloaded Sonic and Sega All stars racing from usenet and was going to give it a quick throwaround until I got paid this friday.

Welp, I don't run antivirus since that shit rarely does anything but freak out while you're trying to clean up malware with tools.

I install the game, run through the first two cups, at the end of the second cup, the game crashes. I think ah well, i'm buying it friday, fuckit. and I start preparing for my next day. I plug my psp into my PC, copy over some new music and rotate out the old, then I see svchost.exe in the root of my psp memory stick. what the fuck.

check it with virustotal and get 40/46 av's calling it malware, obviously. https://www.virustotal.com/file/2d08ebfcf0d4987375d5b58e42f426e3e95d8aebc5f40d6b12f85fe5b22fbc9e/analysis/1360116532/

I delete it, it comes right back.

I run roguekiller and hitmanpro64, it finds the file in question and kills the process, along with the steam_api.dll packed in with the crack being run by rundll32.exe, as trojans. surprise surprise.

research the steam_api.dll malware warning and it turns out msse and avg call it bad too, as seen on the comments on rlslog.

Ironically enough, I had just ran those same tools 3 days ago to demonstrate how the interfaces look to a friend who needed a crash course in malware removal because i don't fix shit for peoples' parents for free.

So, anyway, unless you feel like cleaning your computer up, stay as far as you can from the steam api file in with the crack for this game. Had I not known what I know, my shit could be fucked up right now.

stay safe bros.

All I feel towards videogames is apathy.

I want to feel the same way as 15 years ago. Playing Genesis for hours and hours, without worrying about anything. Blow that shit up, Rambo. Trampoline Terror. Dat Sonic music. Complete calm. Just me and my games. The world was just that, back then. It wasn't immersion, but something different. Subtraction from reality maybe. Although it sounds quite the same.

Is there any way to achieve that once you grow up?

title: Sonic CD
comment:
I was recently playing Sonic CD again and I noticed some things about the game that my child self never did and I just wanted to share those things.

Most noticeable are the aesthetic choices used. It's still a 90s game for sure, but the sprites featured are a darker and more desaturated blue with simpler designs reminiscent of Sonic the Hedgehog (1). You may not know this, but Sonic CD was released in 1993, which is one year after Sonic 2 and one year before Sonic 3. So while Sonic, Sonic 2, and Sonic 3 all had unique and evolving art styles, Sonic CD chose an odd path; regression. That's not to say that it was dull or a bad decision, just that I never noticed this as a kid.

The music is awesome, indeed setting off what would eventually become a trend for the Sonic franchise by having high quality MP3 music (Sonic R, Sonic Adventure etc); but great music in a Sonic game is nothing new.

The time travel element was a godsend. The ability to move back to the past, undo Robotnik's shenanigans, and then move back to the future lends a lot of extra play time to try and make the world perfect again. The fact that your actions have a direct impact on the world feels satisfying. Coupled with the bonus stages, it makes for a game with great content.

Speed is still not a focus. I say "still" because despite advertising campaigns and the modern idea that Sonic games are about speed, the original 2D incarnations were never about speed. Whether that be on the Game Gear, Genesis, or Sega CD. In Sonic 1, the game was about caution and taking things one step at a time, despite the name of the series. Sonic 2 was about building momentum through level mastery and completing it as fluidly as possible. Sonic 3 employed the best of both worlds, requiring you to be cautious your first few times through and then see how much you can overcome the dead stop obstacles with level mastery later.

title: 3d sonic the hedgehog games (1998 - 2006)
comment:
what is your opinion on the 3d sonic games from 1998/1999 to 2006? i.e. adventure 1 & 2, heroes, shadow the hedgehog and sonic 06. (not counting spinoff games like sonic riders or later 3d games like unleashed)

personally, i found a lot wrong with the 3d sonic games during that era: meaningful platforming and paths/routes are thrown out the window in favor of "speedy action" and linearity, a lot of dumb spectacle/gimmicky "RUN AWAY FROM A GIANT TRUCK/BOULDER/ROBOT" setpieces (when the classic/2d games only had a few of these), shitty physics, etc. not to mention awfuly written and executed storylines filled with plotholes (you have akinori nishiyama (adventure 1), shiro maekawa (adventure 2, heroes, sonic 06), takeshi izuka (shadow) and shun nakamura (sonic 06) to thank for those). the only thing good about the 3d sonic games during that era was their music, and even THEN you can only take buttrock 40 for so long until it starts to get on your fucking nerves. (not much point in talking about the graphics -- they're okay i guess, but they're not really one of my concerns with the 3d sonic games)

simply put, for me, it all went downhill once sonic not only transitioned into a piss-poor 3d enviorment that worked against the spirit of the classic/2d sonic games (which woudn't be [spoiler]partially[/spoiler] corrected come unleashed (day)/colo(u)rs/generations), but also became a more "serious" and "edgy" (and dare i say pretentious) game series (see: adventure 2, shadow the hedgehog, sonic 06).

>Amy consensus thread 404'd

Go away mods, I was still typing.

In the series, she's not really a bad character. She's part of the main cast without really being central about it, like Shadow. She's mostly be using supportive roles but has the substance to be part of major adventures like Tails and Knuckles. Despite her obnoxious demeanor throughout the series, she's fairly middle-to-heart and very cheerful and her motives are backed with a strong sense of justice, her unrelenting eyes for Sonic and her hammer. That's a pretty long-lasting character design.

But for fucking Christ's sake, her theme song was fucking out of taste by SA2 and they still use it for over a decade. It's crippling to hear in games like Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing. I hope they drop it for good and put something more fitting and less embarassing.

Hello there,

A trusted Gal-Pal of mine told me this was a good place for people to discuss video games. As y'all probably know by now, Sony is planning to release the PlayStation 4 soon. I was wondering if there would be some kind of Loyalty Discount for those who already own a PS3.

I have been a loyal PlayStation fan ever since their very first System (although back then I preferred the Sega Saturn, as it featured Sonic the Hedgehog, one of my greatest Childhood Heroes, alongside the American Rabbit). My PS3 History Level for LittleBigPlanet was even featured on the official LittleBigPlanet blog! Although I'll definitely be picking up their newest Life Upgrade when it comes out, hopefully I won't have to spend too much of my Hard-Earned Cash.

Thank y'all very much for your help, and I Hope you all have a Great Day. :)

Peace,
Christian Weston Chandler

Holy shit I hate this guy it's unbelievable.

>Doesn't have his own opinions, as soon as Egoraptor disagrees, he takes it back immadietly and quietly. Doesn't even try to argue or defend it. 

>For his entire job to be videogames, he just knows jack shit about them. He throws around facts that aren't true, like "this developer made this game, he's pretty cool!", or "this publisher made a lot of cool games!", without knowing what a publisher or a developer is, makes up random theories on how Rareware employess work now at Retro Studios, and other bullshit. He's completly out of touch and what games are coming out, when they came out etc.

>he's extremly conservative and one of those who are trapped into playing mario, sonic, kirby and DK all day, just because it's the thing he walys did. And rarely tries out other games other than "cutesy",mascot or artsy type games.

http://thetechstuff.com/971/sony-closes-two-divisions-restructures-tv-unit

If you are too lazy to read the articles, allow me to summarize everything here. Sony has been losing money "hand over fist" for the last 10 years. It has really gotten bad in the last 5 years. Sony does not have the funds to produce a new console without external funding. Sony's credit rating could not go any lower, so they can't barrow money to produce it either. Over the last 6 months Sony has sold off their hard assets in order to meet their immediate liabilities. 

Sony is broke at this point. Though the PS3 was a critical success, it has not even come close to being a financial success. Vita is a critical and financial failure from day one. Sony's consumer electronics divisions have not seen a profit in decades. About the only thing that Sony is making money on is their software and patents, neither of which produce enough money to keep the company afloat, much less produce a profit. Nothing I can say here will convince the die-hard Sony fanboys, but this evidence is enough for any level headed person. STOP GETTING HYPED ABOUT THE 20TH. It will only lead to disappointment.

I think Sonic Heroes gets too much hate and not nearly enough credit. Sure the controls were a little floaty, and going through basically the same stage four times to get to the final boss was a copout, but from a gameplay and design standpoint I think it succeeded.

It finally perfected rail grinding, all of the levels are vibrant and gorgeous for the game's time, and switching between characters/playstyles was fast and painless. Unlike a lot of the other Sonic games that came after it, they didn't force you to play an entirely different character/gameplay style through their own levels, but successfully integrated everything into one mode (unlike, say, Unleashed). Hell, they made playing BIG THE FUCKING CAT tolerable!

Also, while the voiceacting and cutscenes were pretty...ehh, the story was simple and straight to the point, plus it wasn't fucking retarded. It felt very true to the original 2D games.

I don't know, what do you guys think? Also, Sonic thread if you want.

So the other day I bought Sonic Generations for the PC to find that the frame rate is absolutely horrendous and I was getting terrible control lag. Keep in mind this is still on minimal settings.
It really does kill the "Fast" aspect of game.
I'm no tech wizard for sure (It's why I didn't make a gaming pc myself. I just bought one.)

Graphics card: Intel(R) HD Graphics
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2600 CPU @ 3.40GHz
8 gigabytes of ram, too.

If it helps, the computer I'm using is an Alienware X51.
Now, I know enough to at least ASSUME this is enough to run the game pretty darn well on minimal settings.
Is there ANY way I can make the game run faster without modifying any hardware? Or if there is no way; What's the cheapest and easiest way to go about making my computer run this kind of stuff faster?
Or are the first few levels like this for everyone?

I was skeptical of this until I saw the fucking trailer

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bywfy_hcq_s

Jesus fucking christ, the visual design actually has color and reminds me a TON of some of the OutRun games. 3 car types at this level of graphical fidelity is a pretty damn ambitious project for one guy, and although it probably won't meet the stretch goal with only 8 days to go, it's at least happening.

First Sonic All-Stars Racing Transformed, and now this. Is this the year of the return to racing glory, /v/?

How about we share our thoughts on Nintendo without shit posting with this simple question:

Where did Nintendo die out for you? Or, are you still strong with them today?

Personally, my love for Nintendo died with the GameCube. I love the GC, but, my love was lost after that. 

Got a Wii, and never really played any games besides Sonic Colors and Twilight Princess/Skyward Sword. Now it's just sitting in the corner of my closet. No hate towards it, really. Just... didn't have the love for it anymore.

Now, I have no interest in getting a Wii U.

But, that's my feelings. What about yours?

In a perfect world...

Capcom would actually listen to their fans.
Sega would still be in the console business, and still able to make great (Sonic) games.
Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft wouldn't waste their resources trying to come up with more gimmicky ways to play games.
Reboots wouldn't exist, and every sequel would always be better than the previous game.
Every gamepad would be good.
"Consolification" and "casualization" would be yet to be coined terms.
"Art game" wouldn't be a controversial subject, it would be an openly accepted term by everyone.
Series wouldn't be ruined or die. They would simply come to an end and open the way for new ones.

9. Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing Transformed

10. Disney Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two

Plus the news of Rayman Legends AND Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge not being exclusives anymore and the possibility of Bayonetta 2 going multiplat after Platinum realized a game with a much larger fanbase like NG3:RE only sold 20k copies (I'm not even joking) the future looks grim for Nintendo.

Enjoy your Wind Waker HD at the end of the year, that'll be the only game you'll be playing until the rehash 3D Mario and the rehash 3D Zelda are out.

I guess this is the new Dreamcast after all. RIP in piece Nintendo. You were great in our childhood but even heroes have to die.

It's great for a stretch of land or to take out enemies or maintaining speed, but every single one of you cunt punchers who said "Oh it's just boost to win" apparently forgot to mention "As you boost into pits, saw blades, spikes, and walls halting your momentum every 5 feet"

You know what IS broken in Generations? The SPIN DASH. I skip entire shitty segments of levels with that thing, I'M SONIC FREE IN THE WIND MOTHERFUCKER. Nobody ever complains about the god damn spin dash but unless I was platforming I was using that damn thing to rape stages.

I'm playing Sonic Generations, one of the characters says "use RB and LB together", to which he goes "OMG IT'S LIKE A LINK TO THE PAST WHERE HE TELLS YOU TO PRESS THE B BUTTON"
Or whenever he's climbing a ladder in a game, he always mentions Snake Eater. Why? Because he heard that the game has a long ladder climbing part. He never played the game, or even saw a video of it.
Also, he won't stop using "professional" terms like "repetition", "hack'n'slash", "stealth mechanics" in normal talk, and it sounds so obnoxious in our native language.

Alright /v/ im stuck on this game and need help, i tried google but its just pages and pages of videos....

How do I beat sonic? I can get to his super sonic stage easily but then he just kills me every time due to his randomness and random boost... The most hard boss so far, the only other thing I thought was near this hard was the vvvvv area falling up and and down thing before the gravitron

Fuck Gearbox. Fuck them in the goddamn ear.

Colonial Marines is reviewing as badly as Duke Nukem Forever. I don't really care about that. What I do care about is the fact the Gearbox will simply go back to milking Borderlands, while SEGA will have to foot the bill for SEVEN YEARS of development.

SEGA had already cut all its focus on only 4 franchises (Aliens, Sonic, Football Manager and Total War). Now Aliens is in the shitter. How much longer can they last?

Tell me the games you love personally that have been raped and slaughtered by horrible fanbases /v/.

For me it's gotta be Amnesia. Mostly because it completely came out of left field for me. I've always been a fan of the Penumbra series, so it's only natural I'd end up playing Amnesia, and I loved Amnesia the most. Just the atmosphere of the setting was incredible to me. It was never so much the "scares" that were most interesting to me so much as the incredible feeling of immersion, and well, it was also scary.

Then suddenly, the worst, lowest subhuman bottomfeeding scumbeing lets player community latches onto it and sucks the life force out of it. Thumbnails of the monsters accented by neon eye drawing backgrounds and stupid camwhore faggot goofy faces. Drooling kiddies laughing at grown men screaming like children at jump scares. Sucking any sense of immersion that the game might have had before some aspie moron dubbed over it with his facecam in the corner. The same kind of faggots that think Slender is scary.

I know a lot of people say "sonic" and shit like that because it's a once good series with a terrible fanbase, but I don't think it's the same as Amnesia where you can't even be scared of the monsters anymore because I can't even see them without envisioning a PewDiePie thumbnail.

Loose Cartridges: 

-Genesis carts

Fifa 95

Beavis and Butthead

With Manual and Box:
Urban Strike
Pinochio
James pond 3
Ecco - Tide of time
Talespin

James Pond 2
MJ moonwalker
Sonic 2 (damaged manual).

Without Manuals, but with box:
Ayrton Senna GP

Terminator
California Games
Berkeley Shut up and Jam
Micro Machines 2

Any contribution would be great as I am trying to shift all of this stuff but I don't want to get ripped off. Any collectors out there who can help me value this stuff? Prices people have reccomended vary between £50-£250 (for everything).

People who whine about the large cast of Sonic characters don't really have an understanding of characterization.

They're more than just decoration or a different way to play the game, they are a new personality and a new way to immerse yourself in the game.

Sonic himself is a weak, two-dimensional character with simple motives and no real dreams or aspirations. Story-wise, he just can't stand on his own.

That's not to say that the stories of the Adventure games were deep and interesting, or that even the horrible Bioware RPG spin-off was anything of particular note... but a mediocre yet cohesive story is better than nothing.

Unless you're one of those people who thinks story "doesn't matter" or that video games SHOULDN'T have stories... and you're allowed to think that. I can't hold it against you.

All I'm saying is maybe if Sonic games were a little bit more like the comics in terms of characterization then maybe people wouldn't hate his "friends" so much.

ITT beloved franchises that were ruined by unorganized development teams who didn't know what they were doing/were too large for their own good.

At least Square-Enix admitted that too large of a development team will ruin a game, and they've taken measures to make their teams smaller so it's easier for them to communicate and organize amongst themselves. Less people with more time > More people with less time. Fifty people with two years will make a better game than a hundred equally talented people with one year, every time.

OUTRUN BAY WONT BE PLAYABLE IN MATCH MAKING
I REPEAT, OUTRUN BAY WONT BE PLAYABLE IN MATCHMAKING

sols post from sanic steam forum sticky


"To clear this up...

OutRun won't appear in Matchmaking as it uses pre-defined playlists with a random selection applied. As OutRun isn't on the playlists, it'll never get picked, regardless of if you have the content or not.

If you host a Custom Game and you have the OutRun track, then other players invited can play on that track even if they don't have it. However, they of course have to be on your friends lists, you can't join a Custom Game by any other means than an invite. 

You can use OutRun in Single Race and Time Attack if you have it just so that's all the options where it can be used.

Metal Sonic can be used anywhere if you've got him. If you don't you can see other players use him, but you can't pick him yourself. "

And instead of Bats and Enchiladas, how about Knuckles is a fluffy Brown Bear and rouge is a Chinchilla?

title: Sonic Passion: A case study on idiots
comment:
We all know the Web is not always a pretty place. There are tons of normal sites to visit, but beneath the web's bright and shiny exterior lies a seamy underbelly of insane theories, sexual depravity, shocking pictures, and anything else you don't want to see. The good part of this filth is that it is an endless source for humor in the form of mockery and satire.

One such hilarious web site is Sonic Passion, a forum for people who are into "robophilia". What is robophilia? The definition seems to be a sexual attraction to an artificially intelligent, human-like robot. If you were attracted to Data from Star Trek, that's robophilia. The Sonic Passion members have used this word to mean a sexual attraction to video game characters. And we're not talking Lara Croft. These people are attracted to Sonic and his friends. These people would like nothing better than to bend Sonic over a chair and fuck him right up his asshole. Or maybe they'd love to fuck Amy while she beats them with her hammer. And those are the least insane fetishes you'd find. These weirdos can combine fur fetish, scat fetish, pedophilia, rape fetish, bestiality, slash fiction, and more into a horrific cocktail of anti-erotic madness that will leave you wondering whether you should be laughing or crying. The members also make it clear they hate society and real people and feel a connection only with video game characters and other real people like them.

Chief among the offenders is the administrator, Alix, who has taken her sexual obsession with Sonic so far beyond rationality that it makes the rest of the members seem normal by comparison. Most of the following images feature her in some way, because she really is the most entertaining out of all of them. She is willing to kill herself for Sonic, as she has claimed many times, and after reading some of her posts, you'll see there's no reason to doubt her sincerity. Is this the craziest site on the web? Probably. So on that note, onto the show!

I'm a extreme Sonic fan but everybody know what a kind of shit is the hedgehog now. Everybody know that 90's was the glorious era for Sonic and Sega. 
Well, it's seems that Sega tried to go back in time with Sonic the Hedgehog 4. It wasn't bad but in my opinion that was not up to their ancestors.
What the hell is wrong with you, Sega? Do not you want to make good Sonic games because they no longer compete against Nintendo?
In this year, 2013, Sega announced a new game of the hedgehog and also said that Sonic completely will remodeled. Something similar to what happened in 1998 with the other remodeling that was for the Dreamcast.

What will happen? We shall see.

What the fuck am I witnessing here? This is insanity. Is anyone else shocked by this bullshit? How would you feel if you were a 6 year old trying to play this and it was one of the first gaming experiences of your life?
Imagine if sonic asked you to give it money when it got to the end of each level? Imagine if you had to buy extra lives in mario

What the fuck am I seeing

This is appalling.
Discuss

I'm not too far into it, maybe i'm just wrong and don't know what to do, but it seems like you will only be able to build about 1/10 of the total possible things in this game if you don't want to spend real money. That is fucked up mannnnn

This is the year, I can feel it. Sonic returns to its roots. Simpler, 2D sidescrolling goodness. No gimmicks like 2 screens, or swords, or princesses or guns. You can't go fast until you've played the levels over and over enough to memorize them.

Looking for some advice on PS3 video capture.

1) Preserving quality and frame rate is paramount

2) The game(s) I'm wanting to record are mostly arcade style. Capturing the smallest and quickest movements is important.

3) I own the CECH-2501A and a Panasonic Viera TC-P50U2.

4) I'm aware of Hauppauge, Pinnacle, etc. I'm hoping for advice from people with first-hand experience with these or similar devices.

5. Price isn't necessarily a restriction, but I can't afford to experiment with a bunch of different methods.

Do any of you remember Chrono Resurrection?The game was a non-profit fan remake of Chrono Tirigger that got hit with a cease and desist order days before its release by Square. And more recently you have a developer that hopes to do a remake of the original three Sonic games. There hasn't been a word from Sega on the matter yet, but it's only a matter of time before Sega or the borderline-autistic furverts that is the Sonic fandom do something to kill this project.

My question is, why the hell do developers do this sort of thing? Moreso eastern developers than western developers. But if the people that are actually doing these creative works aren't gaining any sort of profit for themselves by taking on these long projects; what is the purpose behind getting so defensive other than just doing it for it's own sake? 

You don't see writers suing every 13 year old girl on the internet who writes a bad fanfiction about their characters. Even if it should be illegal.

Did the devs at Valve feel threatened or butthurt when that Chinese offbrand Final Combat was released?

Hello everyone,
As a casual gamer, I have played vast quantities of games that I had little to no trouble with, e.g. Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood and Mario is Missing. Thus, I wish to ascend to the next level (pun somewhat intended) and play some video games that are more hardcore, such as Contra and the like. I own a DS Lite, a 3DS, a Wii, and a PC which can only emulate a few oldschool video games here and there, so no modern consoles like Xbox or PS3. Can anybody give me some suggestions? Thank you!

This is my character, KitsuNeon. Kitsune means demon fox in Nihonjin. He was basically a normal guy until he was possessed by a demon at birth. He has a grudge against Sonic, because Sonic killed his father Perfect Chaos, but whenever KitsuNeon outruns and catches Sonic, he can't bring himself to kill something so weak. He has psychic powers that come from a Magical Amulet he wears around his neck that allow him to turn invisible and summon Tetsusaiga, a magic keyblade that can turn into any other weapon. He also has the Infinity Geass which works infinitely and doesn't require eye contact. He usually hangs out listening to My Chemical Romance with his best friend Shadow and Shadow's girlfriend ShAdOwLoVa1997.

Help me find games she could play please (she only have playstations for the recent gen)

She won't play games where you can't save the progress (she's done with megadrive and NES era). And immersion is a big thing for her, if she can forgot the story a bit.

She likes (it's varied):
>Resident Evil 4
>Uncharted series
>Spyro 1/2/3 ant the last good one on PS2
>Alone in the Dark : Inferno, it was hard for her because of the broken game
>CoD4, but she admits it's too easy for real gamers
>The Saboteur
>L.A NOIR, but she sucks at driving
>The Amaizing Spiderman, but she said it was a bit too assisted

>Silent Hill series
>Tomb Raider Series, but she can't play the PSX ones and is dissapoint by the last one coming

Guess what, /v/

I've been DA diving, and I happened to stumble across this little number, and I know how much you guys like to laugh at Sonic fans.

So it's time for THE WAY COOL ADVENTURES OF SUPERDUDE927! Which I'm going to post one paragraph at a time.

WAY COOL ADVENTURES PROLOGUE:

Once upon a time, there was a Platinum Dragon with the power to destroy anything with his breath weapon along with being able to manipulate all the elements with his breath weapon, who met a Saiyin Hedgehog female. They fought in a duel to the death, but eventually they fell in love because they admired each other's strength. They then made sweet love (which was between man and woman and is HOW IT SHOULD BE!) and created the future hero of us all, SUPERDUDE927, THE PLATINUM DRAGON SAIYIN HEDGEHOG! He has red fur with a platinum scale right arm, a right eye that's blue and a left eye that's yellow and his spines are pointing upwards. He has all the powers of his Platinum Dragon father and Saiyin Mother, which allows him to power up his breath weapon with the KaioKen! SuperDude927 also aged really fast and he grew into an adult body at the age of 2. He also wore black baggy jeans that had zippers all over it because more zippers means more awesome and because HE'S NOT A FUKKING RECOLOR, GAWD!! He is also incredibly handsome and gets all the chicks and ONLY THE CHICKS HE IS A MANLY MAN.

I've seen my fair share of Sonic fan games and hacks

but this is by far the most entertaining.

Rings are turned into onion rings, and eating too many of them causes you to become so fat you're unable to move. You can work off the pounds by running, but if you DON'T and you just keep collecting rings you'll eventually become so obese you can't move at which point Sonic will die of a heart attack.

>it's shit
Being honest here. I like videogames and play a lot of them. Some of them are much more fun than others. I refrain from calling them "shit" though because they just aren't my cup of tea. I might find some games boring but that doesn't mean they are shit.
>Deus Ex, PSTorment, HL1, any GTA, any DmC, any Metroid, Mario after 64, Zelda after OoT
These are some games I didn't like but that doesn't warrant me going on /v/ and calling them "shit".
HOWEVER
There are some games that are genuinely "shit" and it's time to reveal them to everyone.
What games aren't just boring, but really are "shit"?
In my opinion some genuinely "shit" games are [spoiler]any MOBA, Diablo 1-3, SSBrawl, Tekken games, Sonic after Genesis[/spoiler]

Hi everyone... for a while now, I've been considering writing a video game music tribute show, for a festival that happens where I live (Adelaide, Australia) I would get popular theme songs from games and make them into a small band sort of setting. I'm certain that this would be popular and, more importantly, make me lots of money. :)

So I'm here to ask what songs do /v/ think would be popular in this kind of show? I can't do more obscure songs, though I'd love to (I can't imagine 'A Child's Dream from Alundra would go down terribly well, even though it's one of my favourite vg songs). I have thought of a few:

Mortal kombat character select
Donkey Kong country theme, and perhaps a couple more songs.
A Mario medley (like from the NES game, and play all the themes from it)
A few songs from the Zelda series (overworld, dungeon, shop, owl, epona's song, windmill song, maybe a couple more to satisfy myself)
A few Final Fantasy songs. (I have no idea which ones to play here...I'd only do from 7 and 10)
And a couple of Sonic songs.

Any suggestions or tips at all would be very helpful. Thank you :)

Just so you know I'm not lying, here are my specs. This was bought from Bestbuy and even setup by a Geeksquad computer expert:

- 24" Viewsonic flatscreen monitor
- Dell gaming mouse
- Windows Seven Ultimate
- Intel quadra processor
- Memory with 12 gigabytes of ram power
- One TERABYTE Hard Drive
- BluRay player
- Foxconn power supply with 400 wattage
- Sound Blaster sound card
- GE Force GT 520 video card

So after getting a $1500 gaming computer ($2100 after signing up for the extended warranty and 2 years of Geeksquad protection) the Crysis 3 game is STILL laggy! Not only that, but it can take up to 40 minutes just to log in if I do it after getting home from work.
I've verified with the Bestbuy salesperson that this computer should speed up my game, and if it's not then it's Nanosuits' fault.

Hey guys I'm doing a little youtube video about THIS game right here.

Sparkster for the Super Nintendo. I've done a lot of research so my video will hopefully be informative and such.

Do you know anything cool or special about this particular game? Some little tidbit you think is worth mention?

I know the game is by Konami, features Hideo Ueda of Axlay fame as director and shares it's name with the sega gensis title. Pretty dry stuff to talk about unfortunately.

Known as Rocket Knight in Japan I think the name change was detrimental. Sparkster sounds too much like they were trying to copy Sonic.

Anyways, yeah let me know your Sparkster related secrets. In return I will be forever greatful

We always hear people calling Mario a series of rehashes. Yea, there's a few games, like the New Mario games, but I don't see how you can claim Galaxy is really a rehash of Sunshine.

I see dumb shit like pic related being posted all the time. "Hey guys, wouldn't it be cool if there was a Mario game where each level was based on an already existing Mario game?" Hell no, that is exactly what we should not want from new Mario games. Galaxy relied too much on nostalgia and really offered little environments, themes, and characters to the series. Now, Galaxy is my favorite 3D Mario game, don't get me wrong, but Sunshine was the last to really be innovative and offered the Mario series a great number of things I listed: Fludd, Delfino, Pinatas.

Sunshine has what I call a very "Sonic" route to design. 

We can all agree 3D Sonic games suck, but they do do one thing much better than Mario: innovation. Sonic & the Black Knight combined Sonic's trademark speed with swordsmanship and roleplaying elements iirc and placed Sonic in an Arthurian world. Sonic & the Seven Rings used Middle Eastern influences and had a lot of imagery from Arabian Nights. Even Unleashed was interesting in that it had Sonic turning into a werewolf thing.

What new thing did Super Mario 3D Land do? New power up? Had 2d and 3d worlds?

Sunshine combined Mario's trademark platforming elements with the FLUDD and gave the game a tropical setting. I guess Galaxy was alright in that it gave it a space setting.

Everyone always calls Mario a rehash series but gets excited over shit like "Mario Generations" when that direction would be the most rehash-y thing Nintendo could do.

Personally, I would like to maybe see a Mario game with wild western influences. My favorite platformers tend to have grappling hooks, so maybe a lasso+grappling hook hybrid could be cool. Now this idea probably sounds stupid, but I hope you understand what I'm trying to have you understand.

So it's been established that Dr. Robotnik turns Sonic's animal friends into evil robots in order to conquer the world.
It has also been established that an ancient civilization lived on Angel Island long before Sonic was born. They built all the stuff there. Bridges, temples, houses.

But what in God's name are all these loopings for? What significant purpose could they possibly serve?

I spy a happy meal, with "KeMoN" nearby. Hello Kitty, and two fighters of TIE. A pokemon movie of the second millenium, and a hollow clay sonic, facing quite the conundrum. Three figurines of pony, sitting near sonic's shoes in 3-D. An anime girl with a terrible unibrow, a floating screwdriver near the window. Pikachu sitting on the TV, and even a single game for the PS3. A recolor of a recolor, how very original, and a pokeball larger than the panama canal. Bubsy, the coolest cat around, and a pair of bongos sitting on the ground. Chris’ bleeding heart. Terrible Rosechu art. Two instances of the three sonic primaries, and “KURUMi”... I don’t know what that means. A gamecube looking no worse for the wear and a remote control sitting behind a chair. The symbol for pokemon that fight with their fists, and a certain transformer, the prime of optimus.

The journey’s been difficult, but woe I digress; Chris-chan’s room is a fucking mess.

>During one of the "higher-up's" employee's summer barbecue party...Well, most of us got buzzed. We ended up talking about the Sonic franchise, and we were practically bashing it. From what I remember, we talked about how the most popular thing that came from the Sonic franchise was the stuff that came from YouTube and 4chan. In case you don't know what I'm referring to, I'm referring to the "pingas" videos or the "double n-word" pictures and videos. Essentially, in pro wrestling terms, Dr. Robotnik/Eggman became video game's version of the Iron Sheik. All of the talk about "pingas" and a ton of insanely offensive videos was what was keeping the franchise (somewhat) alive, along with the creepy furries who were just obsessed with the franchise.

>A few more drinks, and after a few got iced, people talked about pitching an idea to make a final Sonic game based on the Dr. Robotnik internet memes. Nothing serious, just a ton of trolling just to piss off the furries, and to declare the Sonic franchise euthanized in honor of Jack Kevorkian. This was one of the moments where I was happy that I don't drink much. I was able to remember how crazy things were at the party and how much fun we had.

>tfw marathoning sonic franchise
>tfw all that autism
I just can't take it anymore, /v/... I just had an idea to marathon some franchise that i don't beat yet.

So i start with the first one, Okay, average game. Nothing special. 
Sonic 2 - also average but maybe with better music. 
Sonic 3 and Knuckles - pretty much the best 2d sonic. 
Sonic CD - average as fuck. I Picked EU music beacuse everyone was saying THE MUSIC IN EU IS AWESOME. NOPE, it was shit. SONIC BOOM 10 time better
Sonic 1, 2, (game gear shit you know) Chaos, Triple Trouble, Blast, Pocket Adventure - TOO MUCH AUTISM FOR ME
Knuckles Chaotix - It had potential. But nope, this game is so fucking shit. First of all - the controls. So fucking shit. Who thought it was a good idea? And second - each level have 5 ACTS? And there are 6 levels? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?
Sonic Adventure 1, 2 - These game are after the Sonic 3 And Knuckles the best 2d SANIC GAMES
Sonic Adventure 3 - The same problem as Knuckles Chaotix - TOO MUCH SAME LEVELS. Jesus fucking christ.

So the first 3D (yeah, i know there is 3D BLAST, but first of all, i didn't play this shit... YET, and second - yeah, 3D MY ASS.) 
CONTINUED.....

Okay so I might upgrade my PC in the near future, this is what I put together.

Motherboard: Asus M5A87

GPU: Asus HD7770

RAM: Corsair Vengeance 4GB

This would cost me $450, if I used the HDD I have currently. How well would this PC be able to run today's games?

Also I have read the logical increments guide but I don't live in murrica so the prices here are different and some parts I couldn't even find in local shops so this is the best I could put together in the price range. I could also go for an i3-3220 and an Asus GTX650 for the same price. Would that be better?

comment:
We've had two games set in space now. It seems unlikely that the new Mario game will be Galaxy 3, or "Universe". But, what else can it be? I'm having a difficult time thinking of U words that could plausibly be part of the next Mario's title and descriptive of the setting/theme. 

Some have suggested based on the tiny/huge island setting of the 3DS Mario Golf that the WiiU title will be set there as well, exploring as normal sized Mario on the television and small Mario on the controller. 

Others have suggested it will have something to do with dimensions, and be similar to Sonic Generations in that Mario will visit worlds based on past Mario games. 

Does any of this ring true for you? If not, what do you expect instead?

So I just finished this movie, and I loved a lot of the references, as well as the overall movie. 

Stuff like Ryu, Snake, Sonic and even old classics like Q*bert were featured a lot but I actually didn't see Mario, or any other main hero Nintendo character (I can only recall seeing Bowser as an actual character even, but might not have been paying full attention). After checking it out in Wikipedia, it basically says they wanted Mario and Luigi in, but Nintendo were asking for too much of an inclusion fee, but that got me thinking. 

Do you guys believe that Mario, or any other main IP characters, can be featured in an animation movie? I know that most of them don't speak, but if they tried something akin to Mario RPG? Would you watch it? Would it be successful, even without speaking?

What are some fun two player games I can get for PS2 for when girls come over? You know, "girlfriend games". They don't even have to be good, just have to be fun to play with two people, and somewhat entertaining. Video games are one of my main tactics for getting girls comfortable with me while we're in my home or room. 

My ideas so far:
Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm (already have, but it seems a little too hard for a non gamer girl to grasp her head around)

Super Monkey Ball (need to buy again, fun as fuck, and the monkeys are cute)

Sonic Mega Collection (a little easier to play, and plus it's fucking sonic)

any games you guys wholeheartedly recommend for some boom boom in da room? any success stories involving a game you've played with a girl that lead to some rumpus in the grumpus?

So the configure option on the menu when I start up Sonic All Stars Racing Transformed won't do anything. It just makes me exit out of the game and I have to relaunch.

For some reason, my gamepad has stunts set to the left stick. So if I make a jump or anything like that and I move to turn, I do a stunt and it just fucks me over. I want to fix this, but I can't without doing the configure option from launch. Options in game won't do anything. Google won't turn up anything. You guys have any advice?

So this game started off pretty fun and seemed really well put together. But then after City Escape it all started to go to hell. I started noticing the terrible dialogue/voice acting. Levels felt lazily slapped together. And falling through floors became a common occurrence on top of numerous other glitches.

Sonic's friends only got more and more fucking annoying as time went on and you unlocked the more unlikable ones and the final boss was so shit that you can't help but feel the game ended on one hell of a low note.

So I guess... this game is perfect. It is the perfect analogy for Sonic's career.

All right, /v/, this is going to be a weird thread.

I got myself a Galaxy Tabs a few days ago, and decided do try some vidya on it. Of course I always knew that tablets and smartphones are horrible for gaming, but well, fuck me. I downloaded Dead Space.

It's actually... pretty good. Of course, the controls are a clusterfuck and the graphics are pretty simple, something like a last-gen Dead Space. But the atmosphere is pretty good, looks like it has a decent amount of content for this kind of game and the protagonist, Vandal, is so much cooler than Isaac.

I ended up playing a real, average game on my tablet.

Seriously, anyone who thinks this game is mediocre because of the Werehog is a fucking idiot. The real reason why this game folded is because the fucking medal system that grinds the game to a screeching halt.

Why the hell does level progression depend on collecting hidden shit? I know it isn't expertly hidden shit, but still.

Xbox live accounts can be shared up to 5 times, on 5 different consoles. 
With new on demand games if you and 5 friends do this and have all 5 accs on 5 xbox's you all share each others on demand games. (all for paying for one copy of that shit SIDE NOT- ALSO WORKS WITH DLC)
HERES WHAT I WANT FROM YOU
I have: Skyrim
Jet Set Radio
Sonic adventure 1 & 2
Megaman 10
And |Die Rise- Black Ops 2|
Im looking to swap accounts with someone with Borderlands 2. I dont give a fuck what else you have, if you have Blands 2 and let me put that shit on my Xbox, you can use my account to put those games on yours.

TL;DR I want Blands 2 and will trade the games above for it (only on xboxlive though)

question about oc
first of all: my cooling is pretty crappy that's why. second: this is my first oc so question will be probably stupid, whatever, deal wit it. i decided to pump up my e6500. i read some manuals, dl programs and started. i was using orthos and linx for testing, now heres the problem: linx is so harsh that at 3.0ghz my cpu is getting past safe 74 degree while orthos is fine with 3.4ghz and probably more (around 70-72). since that looked weird i decided to do some empirical tests. first: minecraft + 512 texture + sonic ether shader + everything maxed up. (got 8-10fps). second: ultrafractal + some ultra extreme zoom. both programs reached 100% cpu usage and were running for more than hour. temperatures were similar when i was using orthos. now heres my question: should i trust linx and get like no oc at all or should i trust orthos knowing that during normal usage (playing/rendering) mu cpu wont be tortured as extremely as linx does it

How is it that even with the fan outcry for more quirky, Japanese-style fare from SEGA, that with the good reviews and the lack of competition on the system, that with an ad campaign and Nintendo as a distributor…how is it that this didn’t sell? If niche Japanese beat-em-up Pandora’s Tower (on the Wii of all systems) can make this same chart (debuted last week at 38) then is it a stretch to expect a game being billed as one of the best rhythm games in years to find at least similar success?


It’s truly unfortunate to see sales like these for such a great-looking game. I’ve been a SEGA fan since the Genesis area, and speaking for myself, I want to see in-house SEGA continue making games outside of Sonic the Hedgehog. I want there to be a market for new IP drenched it that quirky SEGA flavor that we all love. I want SEGA to continue to take risks and, for once, actually have them pay off. If a fanbase like the one Atlus has is able to beg for a game like Catherine, a game originally said to be Japan-only, and then have it localized and have it become a smash hit for the company, why can’t SEGA’s fanbase do the same?

DREAMCAST APPRECIATION THREAD

I busted the old thing out after my friends started talking about Sonic Shuffle (Sega sports edition master race). I ended up barely winning because I was a faggot who dueled people as much as I could and won the last emblem to victory with that. Then I went on to get destroyed in Frogger 2. That multiplayer can ruin friendships.

Also playing through Sword of the Berserk and fuck, DC had pretty good graphics. Yeah, the scenery isn't that great but the models look damn good.

Any other good games? I already plan on playing

Has Sega been milking Ryu ga Gotoku much?

The creators behind it are Smilbit+Amusment Vision who created things like Monkey Ball, F-Zero GX and Jet Set Radio

Are you okay with yearly installments of it? Does it work for you as the flagship and poster boy Sega series? Does it live up to the Sega name and legacy for it?

Personally I don't think so. These games always change too little with each installment, and are too story-focused, slow-paced to be considered classic sega through and through.

IMO Sega started to go downhill ever since they made RGG annually since 2005. It sucked the life out of the company. The same how Sonic was milked.

Inb4: Autism, Furry, Sega is dead, Sonic is dead, Sonic is cancer, Sonic is gay, Sega are jews, Sega hates its fans, Sonic games suck, Generations final boss sucked, Generations sucked, Colors was a block platformer (which it was), new friends suck, eyes are too green, Sonic is too tall, Sonic is too skinny, Sonics voice actor sucks, too many friend,s Tails voice actor sucks, bring back Fang, bring back Mighty, SA2 was bad, Sonic 06 was bad, S3&K circle jerk, the barrel, diddy kong racing is better than transformed, Sega needs to bring back every single series the fans want, Sega is going to fuck up again and make another 06, Amy porn, boost to win, spin dash to win, sky sanctuary is too white, classic Sonics shade of blue is wrong, Generations was too short, no one wanted to play the challenges, Vector challenge, Find the computer room, Damn fourth chaos emerald, Shadows new voice actor sucks, Unleashed sucked, Mario is better, Sonic in wreck it ralph, Sonic OVA, Sonic merchandise autism, shitty Sonic parodies on youtube, Chili dogs, going too slow, needing to step it up, feeling good, Boxer hockey comic, deviantart fan drawing, Sonic kid in class, Sonic miracles in to mistakes, Sonic ultimate fan black kid video, Sonic AMV, Sonic 06 game grumps, SA2 extra dlc for battle, SA dlc for DX, Rouge porn, Knuckles being clumsy, mountain of handkerchiefs, MAKE BELIEVES REBORN, GOOD GREAT AWESOME OUTSTANDING AMAZING, copyright laws stopping Sonic, baldy mcnosehair, horrible script writing in general, werehog hate, Metal sonic fight in CD is cheap as fuck

I found information that might be of your interest, the best seller game of the Sonic titles is Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, SEGA keeps the Olympics games rights and want to continue the saga with the new Winter Olympic game, the problem is that the Mario & Sonic games sequels didn’t sell well, the next game will be the first game only focused on the WiiU and not a port like SASRT, after talking with Nintendo, both agreed in introduce a third franchise to the Olympics to focus on new public, SEGA contact Hasbro, who recently put his franchise, MLP in japan and now is incredible popular in America.
 Sega, Hasbro and Nintendo made a deal and now the Mario & Sonic franchise will include MLP characters, SEGA will announce this game before or during the E3, Nintendo will make the marketing in japan. Nintendo will help in the development of the game for the first time.
 Shigeru Miyamoto will be the supervisor, but he isn’t agree with this idea, because he don’t know anything about the franchise and that will only cause problems with the fans, for other hand, Hasbro made a tease episode of the Winter Olympics in the MLP cartoon, also they wait that the game will help to promotion MLP in japan and soon they will launch a toy set inspired in the Winter Olympics, also they are planning a dedicated episode for the Winter Olympics and it will be released during the 4 season.
Like the last games, this game will have 2 versions, WiiU and 3DS, the WiiU version will launch in holidays this year and the 3DS version at Q1 2014

So what are some of the worst games some of you have played through and actually been able to stand? Maybe even a game that would be entertaining to watch someone fumble through, but not assault your eyes and ears. Some friends and I are putting together a list of some pretty bad games to play for shits and giggles.

I don't mean games that are so bad that they are nearly impossible to beat, or ones that are so offensive to the senses that they won't last past an hour. Ideally, maybe games that are so bad that they are good, at least some kind of balance between enjoyment and badness. I have a few in mind already that I'll mention to give an idea of what I'm looking for.

Sonic 06, Bubsy 3D, Cheetamen, Drakken, Golgo 13, etc.

Either games that are universally acknowledged for their lack of quality or games that you personally hated for dismal gameplay.

One thing I have noticed in my 5+ years here at /v/ is that a lot of the worries, frustrations, cries of rage, and overall pessimism that a good portion of /v/ has for newer games is really unfounded.

I've been playing games for 30 years now and I grew up playing Ultima, Bard's Tale, Myst, Ninja Gaiden, Battletoads, Contra, Sonic, Zelda, you name it.

Gaming has changed, sure, but I think most of that has to do with the internet side of it. Companies wanted profit in the old days, probably as much as they do now, but gaming was still new and we didn't have the incessant coverage of every little nuance we do now.

I have my gripes, sure, but if anyone should be mad at gaming, I should. Yet, I'm having as much fun now as I did when I was younger. In fact, there are too many games coming out just this month that I am looking forward to.

But, I'm wrong, right?

Take the name of one of your favorite games and change its title a little. Then, come up with a concept for it.

>Planescape: Torment
>Planet Escape: Tournament

Set in the future. You are a man sent on a prison planet for a crime you did not commit. Lucky for you, each century there is a giant, planet-wide, bloody tournament which allows the victor to regain his freedom.

It plays like an FPS, except each level is more like a challenge from a TV game show like American Gladiator. Of course, the games are lethal and the contestants are armed. Plays over 25 action-packed levels, gruesome atmosphere and features a multi-player mode. 

Price: 40 USD + tips

>Sonic the Hedgehog
>Cynic the Edgy Hog

An adventure-puzzle-RPG set in an anthropomorphic disney-like world that is doomed and slowly crumbling during of the length of the game. 

All the animals are living in denial, they refuse to accept their world is falling apart and try to keep their joyful facade, kind of like some of the villagers in Majora's mask, except it's much more eerie in this game because the contrast between the beginning of the game, where there are only small hints that something is wrong, and the end, where everything is twisted and dying,.

You are Cynic the Edgy Hog, the only anthro character that seems to have accepted the fate of his world, with a healthy dose of cynicism and edgyness that is presented through the dialogue (written by Avellone). Even though you can't be bothered, you end up being drag into exploration of the dying world, solving puzzles, exploring dungeons and fighting the corrupted creatures that spawn from the rotten environment.

Although initially a cynic, Cynic's personality evolves as the world and its inhabitants. The direction it takes is dictated by gameplay choices made by the player, rather than good/evil dialogue wheels.

Over 200 endings.

Let's get together and summarise all the "What the hell are you doin' Sega?" moments.

I'll start:
The constant bipolar mess of handling Sonic franchise

Putting Valkyria Chronicles II on PSP and making it more light hearted school related (did not go over well with original fans)

Valkyria Chronicles III confirmed to not being localized for PSP due to low sales of the previous game (gee I wonder why)

Putting Virtua Fighter 4 Final Showdown on PSN only (no disc version) and taking forever to finally make it.

Putting Phantasy Star Online 2 on PC only (when the original one was on Sega Dreamcast with dial up (and ran fine back then too)

Putting Shinobi on the 3DS when it deserves to be a full out console 3D game like the PS2 one.

Not releasing the latest Phantasy Star Portable game to the U.S.

Shoving shameless product placement in the latest Phantasy Star Portable 2

No localization of Yakuza: Kenzan

No Localization of New Yakuza chapter: Black Panther for PSP


Putting Shining Force Cross Raid as an arcade only game 


Not handling Bethesda correctly with the making of Alpha Protocol and its glitched mess of a game

Messing up Bayonetta's PS3 version and trying to hide it

No Shenmue III

What are some of your favorite GameCube games? I have fifty bucks to blow on used GC games.

Already have:

>Wind Waker
>SSBM
>MK:DD!
>Pikmin
>Pikmin II
>Metroid Prime
>MP 2
>Luigi's Mansion
>Super Mario Sunshine

Specifically, GC games that are good to play with bros. I was thinking Mario Party, one of the Sonic Games, and maybe Megaman? What are the best ones of those series on GC?

I personally think that the Sonic genre as a whole was completely overblown after the Genesis era.

If you had the opinion to change how the games were after the Genesis, what would they be like?

Anyone else suprised that the Smash Bros. series is considered so Mainstream and popular, in that it could "save" a system? Or even be a widespread killer app like a Halo is?

Honestly, I always thought that the series was kind of a niche, honestly the most niche out of Nintendo's core franchises. I always thought that Mario Kart, Mario Plattformers and Zelda are way more popular.
If you talk to most people who play games, and not even just casually, you would find that Smash Bros. is way too "chaotic" and "spazzy". They rather play Mario and Zelda when they go pick up the next Nintendo system.
A very good amount still buy the games for the novelty and content factor, but how many play it seriously and competetivly?
The kind of people who complain about tripping, Brawl's physics, play with no Items, and keep up with it depite the hecticness and speed.

I think these are a very small minority, the general taste of gamers isn't aconstumed to that sort of playstyle. Considering how polarizing games like Sonic and others are which are so fast that you often you don't know what's going on, I'm convinced of this.
