>It’s no surprise that Sonic will have a cameo in Disney’s upcoming movie Wreck-It Ralph. With so many classic videogame characters appearing in it Sonic was bound to be included, especially with Eggman making an appearance as well. Now we’ve got a confirmation that he’s not just going to sit or walk by like a lot of the cameos.

>At the Comic-Con panel for Wreck-It Ralph the first 10 minutes of the film were shown, and in those 10 minutes a PSA was shown with Sonic explaining that if a game character dies in a game that’s not their own they die for good. Seemingly a reference to the Sonic Sez segments from Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog. There’s no confirmation on who will be voicing Sonic in the movie, we already know that Zangief (from the Street Fighter games) isn’t voiced by his normal voice actor in the movie so there’s some doubt on if Roger Craig Smith will be playing the role.

What is it about this fucker that makes him so god-damned popular among children and autists alike? There must be SOMETHING, and it can't be innovative gameplay, state-of-the-art graphics, or award-winning story, so what is it?

I mean, I liked the first couple of 2D Sonic games because it was fairly original platforming gameplay that gave you a real sense of speed. At this point, I don't think that sort of thing's being taken into account by anyone, so why?

My theory is these people take Sonic's cheesy, corny 'lessons' wholeheartedly, while also legitimately regarding Shadow as a fearsome, controversial character. Essentially, they take 'suspension of disbelief' to a whole new level due to their naivete and retardation.

The best Sonic games were the original ones made for the Sega Genesis: 1, 2, 3, & Knuckles.

Why can't Sega give us what we all really want and make a new Sonic game that's in the exact style of the Genesis games, but with new levels and bosses?

And I'm not talking Sonic Classic in Generations, or what they did with Sonic the Hedgehog 4. I'm talking make it look and play like it was designed for the Sega Genesis and released in 1994.

I'm an older guy. Not going to say how old, but it's safe to say I'm older than most of you.

I grew up playing games on lots of platforms.

Games like Bard's Tale, Ultima, Mario, Zelda, Sonic, Mega Man, Castlevania, Commander Keen, Doom, Wolfenstein, etc. You name it, I was playing it.

I'll admit that video games have taken a slide, gotten more commercialized, corporate minded, and well, casual. It sucks, but I'm not going to give up on games.

That being said, I'm having a lot of fun with games. It's not the same kind of fun as when I was a kid, but there are still lots of games I enjoy.

So, why is it that on /v/, the hatred and cynicism only get worse by the years? I've been here for about 5 years now and I have my criticisms about the industry, but you guys are ten times more jaded than I could ever be. 

So, why is someone who really should be jaded and angry not as angry as you guys? What happened to you guys? Were games ever really your favorite hobby?

Dear kids who were 14,

When I was a kid with a Sega Genesis I had 57 games, all the classics like Sonic, Ms. Pacman, and Streets of Rage. I invited you fuckers to my house to play some vidya, not knowing you'd be greasy cunt flapping theives. At first, I noticed a cart or two were missing, then a few dozen. As one of you assholes walked out of my house, I saw that you took my Super Street Fighter II the New Challangers from my game bin. You cock mongers stole from me, and guess what? I have a secret network of spies tracking your IPs as we speak, you could be killed at any moment. If only you had kept your mouths shut, for you may have known the fury which will be shat upon you.

Sega about Sonic: "We want the Hello Kitty audience"

Merchandising deals can make Sonic the Hedgehog as iconic as Hello Kitty.

Sega is knuckling down on its four major IPs as part of its recent restructure, with priorities to push into digital and licensing.

For Sonic, the latter means signing up more third parties to make associated toys, clothing and other gear.

And the famous company mascot could be as ubiquitous as Sanrio’s cute cat, explained Jurgen Post, COO of Sega Europe.

“Sonic is a well-known character, but we’ve got a lot of room to grow in merchandising,” he told MCV. 

“We dream of Hello Kitty. We’re still far off from that but we can see that our profits are growing year on year in the US and Europe [on merchandising].

“We’ve got a licensing team on the ground in the UK who are focusing on that and that team will expand. We’ve got a team in the US and which will also expand. We used to run it all out of Sega of Japan, but having people on the ground is making a big difference. 

“We will always do the computer game but the merchandising is a very important aspect to Sonic.”

Okay, so I loved Sonic Adventure 2 when I was a teenager. I'm talking, playing City Escape 500+ times, having all A rank on EVEN the non-Sonic/Shadow levels, blah blah blah. And even though the Sonic/Shadow levels aren't that great, plagued by they-run-you-watch events, shoddy camera, unreliable homing attacks etc I still had a lot of fun with it. Then I played Heroes, Black Knight, Werehog, all that shit, and they all sucked (I think Black Knight was the only one I played to completion). So I give up on the franchise and move on.

Then /v/ tells me that Sonic Generations is the shit. Well, okay, there's a free demo on Steam, I'll give it a shot. And it's like all the bad parts from SA2 plus crappier physics, confusing gameplay (why does 3D sonic have 2D sections, for one) and the full game has shit like Sonic 2006 levels. So, what's the deal? Why do you guys like it?

tl;dr why do people jerk off to Sonic Generations when it's the same old shit plus 'new' shit on top

What if there was a survival horror game where you are Sonic having to run away from Sinistar and the ghosts in Sandopolis Act 2 while it's pitch dark (so they get the devil horns) AND there's Mega Mack everywhere below you which is comprised of tricky platforms where you fall into the megamack constantly. From there you can get up but requires you to wait on slow moving, tricky platforms, so you get fucking tense as the drowning music plays.

title: PS3 bundle.. good price?
comment:
I have an xbox 360 but im interested in getting a ps3 to round out my collection. whats a good price for this ps3 bundle, it seems like an older model since it has the 80gb hard drive, but im not sure.
ps3, 4 controllers, a little controller stand to hold two of them. bomberman ultra and elevator action deluxe on the hard drive.
its from an ad online with only pictures of the cases, not actual game names listed, so some of them i couldnt read/didnt recognize.
comes with these games: split second fx vs mx (or w.e.) untamed 'undercover' (sp?) tna impact...? metal gear solid 4 saints row 2 some racing game... "something 5 prototype" tony hawks something nba 2k11 nba live 10 madden 09 sonic the hedgehog marvel ultimate alliance iron man some fighting game looks like tekken rainbox six vegas uncharted 2
sorry about the 'somethings' but he has all the cases pictures but didnt actually type out game titles on the ad. ill update my post if i can. anyways... $300 is what he wants. sure it seems like a fair price to me, but it seems a little high. especially if this is a 1st or 2nd gen. plus i bet i couldnt get much more than $40 for most of those games which i wouldnt want. id probably keep metal gear solid, maybe uncharted, maybe tony hawk. idk about undercover. thats about it. not into the football/basketball/racing games.
edit: he is the original owner, purchased it in 2006. its almost 6 years old.. is $300 a nice price or should i try to talk him down some

So Shadow The Hedgehog died at the end of Sonic Adventure 2 right?And all of Sanic and his friends were aware of his death if im not mistaken, And it was revealed that in his horribly shitty game that he somehow survived the crash to earth and not get burned to crisps by the atmosphere and that Dr.Robotnik fixed him up and cloned him in the process right and he just stored him away in a secure base after that right? But when that Bat Hoe brakes into the base she had no idea what was the "Top Secret" thing being stored away by Robotnik it was just G.U.N. orders to find out what it is.How come none of the other people where shocked seeing shadow alive and they just acted like he never died?

Hey /v/, question time.

What kind of characters to do you play as in multiplayer games?

Do you play the main character? The Mario or the Sonic of the bunch?

Do you play as the tough character? the Knuckles or the Vegeta of the group?

Do you play as the girly female character? The Amy or the Peach?

Do you play as the cool character? The Dry Bone or the Shadow of the bunch

Do you play as the high tier character? The Fox or the Ryu of the bunch

Do you play as the weird/unique character? the Voldo and Mr. Game and Watch of the bunch

And the classifications go on and on. Do you generally play as the same type(s) of character or does it change from game to game? I usually find myself picking the weird character or as I think of it "The character I never have to argue with someone over playing".

http://www.tssznews.com/2012/07/23/four-sonic-adventure-3-domains-registered-by-someone/

>Four top level domains–sonicadventure3.com, sonicadventure3.net, sonicadventure3.org, and sonicadventure3.info–have all been registered on or around April 22nd of this year by an unknown party, TSSZ has learned.

>At present, all pages presently point to a default landing page, and nowhere near Sega’s own website.

>In the past, Sega had a tendency to register domains for upcoming titles before a formal announcement, either in-house or via third parties, as a means to protect company IP. The way these domains were registered, however, gives plenty of cause for suspicion. This time around, the registrant is the French division of 1&1 Internet, a company primarily focused on web hosting. That is a change from the last three times a Sonic domain was registered. Domains for Sonic Generations, Sonic Free Riders, and Sonic the Hedgehog 4 all eventually fell under the management of EuroDNS, where they remain today. Consider also that, even if Sega’s French division was behind the registration of these, the arm closed its doors last month, along with numerous other subdivisions of Sega Europe.

>So, the pattern here doesn’t really match Sega’s past behavior–making the jump to an actual Sonic Adventure 3 in the works very difficult. But with the domains active for over three months, one would think Sega would have caught wind of it and take action were the registrations unauthorized.

 What I want from it is a mix of Adventure(playable characters other than Sonic, Chao Gardens) Unleashed (hubs, wildly different gameplay styles) and Generations (overall gameplay and level design), with Sonic keeping his same gameplay from SU/G, Knuckles being the Werehog with additional exploration elements and Tails pure 2D gameplay.

Years later, it still puzzles me that Sonic the Hedgehog, a series generally marketed towards kids to enjoy decided to include swearing in the script. I'd like to be at the meeting where they decided to greenlight the script.

"Kids ask for our games every year for Christmas! What should we put in this script to make sure they want another turd this year!" "Well... we don't need to make sure it's polished, those retards would buy anything. Let's add swearing." "Don't you think mothers would be upset and think twice before giving us money?" "Nah, we want the Call of Duty Audience."

Does anyone have any info on the development of this game? That entire decision still puzzles me.

Hello fellow /v/irgins. I have a plan. I wanna see Sonic in Kingdom Hearts, BUT BEAR WITH ME. I figured since Sonic is going to be in an up coming Disney movie (wreck it Ralph), and the main character of said movie will be in SEGA All Stars Racing: Transformed, it should smooth out the deal. Here's what we do, we make twitter accounts (if you don't already have one) and we spam up every account associated with Disney and SEGA with tweets about wanting to see Sonic in Kingdom Hearts. They'll get the jist and maybe, just maybe, we'll see this badass game in the future. Whaddya think guys?

An exclusive screenshot from Sega and Sonic Team’s upcoming reboot of the Sonic the Hedgehog video game franchise, scheduled for sometime in 2013.

A spokesperson for Sega Sammy has confirmed that this project is the reason that Sega has remained silent about any news related to the speedy blue mascot after the release of the 20th anniversary game Sonic Generations, stating that:

“The latest Sonic game is going to combine Sonic’s signature speed with the gritty, cutting-edge realism found in popular games like God of War, Halo, Assassin’s Creed, and Resident Evil.

We’ve realized in recent years that so called ‘mascot games’ don’t really have an impact on today’s gaming audience anymore.

The developers at Sonic Team are currently working on a game that will re-imagine Sonic the Hedgehog for the modern generation, and are going to re-imagine the Sonic series’ gameplay, tone, and the character himself in a direction that will hopefully resonate with today’s audience.

Gamers have told us that they’re tired of simplistic, colorful and cartoony landscapes…they want brutal, visceral action in an unforgiving world, and Sonic Team will soon be delivering that.”

No additional information is available at the moment regarding this game’s ESRB rating, platform release, or possible DLC.

So this is the situation /v/:

I haven't played Sonic since the 90s, trying it out at Toys'r'us as I was pretty much a Nintendo kid. However I got Generations at the Summer sale and...I mean I knew that the series had some problems with its character design, but then I saved this fucker here.

What the holy flying shit is this?
Who... who would do this?
When did they add that?

So guys, I'm playing the new Sonic: Futuresurfer. It's pretty good, better than I'd hoped, but not as good as Super Mario 5D Adventure.

After that videogame crash years ago it's amazing that videogaming is now considered the best hobby ever. Everyone loves it and even the president made it a law to play videogames.

My monitor is fucked and I'd like to play my games on my 1080i Sony TV as a temporary fix. Problem is, either my PC or TV is not automatically configuring appropriately with this specific TV. When I try to connect through HDMI there is a signal and the screen reacts to it so it definitely detects it however there is no sound or picture. It detects and works instantly and perfectly with my friend's 1080p Panasonic so I'm clearly missing something, I just don't know what. Any suggestions?

Could stuff, like this crappy Robotnik theme the Japanese got, be the reason we have a stupid, incompetent bad guy with the name... I shudder to say Egg man?
Instead a dark, world destroying, for his own greed, mad scientist who's only weakness is a hedgehog?

I understand that his name in those regions was originally Eggman and now Sega is basically too lazy to localize it Robotnik. But it seems like the guys whole personality changed too once we got Sonic Adventure. Did we also get their crappy interpretation of how evil/smart this guy is?

If so, fuck you Japan!

Whats everyone think. Also lets also talk about other localization changes that irk us.

I think the worst element of Mobas is that they concentrate all the retards into a critical mass where they feel validated and not shunned. It's like walking into some kind of extreme disgusting sexual fetish forum.
It's pretty surreal to have a Moba person describe to you the "strategy" or metagame, as if it's well engineered or impressive. I am flabbergasted that the retardation has gotten this out of hand.
In what other community would such blatantly stupid gameplay designs be even tolerated much less championed and discussed seriously? I think it's safe to say at this point that Moba communities are Sonic Fandom tier.

Damn, this game is good. There's just so many enjoyable and compelling aspects to it. Critics thought it was bad apparently, but to me it's because they want a game to be "perfect", for every element to seamlessly integrate with each other. But I think that's just spurious; games (and art in general) don't have to be perfect. This game is just so good in so many ways.

The Sonic/Shadow levels are crazy. The music is fucking awesome and I love how they're original songs with vocals. Even the cutscenes are cool and I liked the emotional ones with Shadow (and the final scene with Knuckles and Rouge is adorable)

The year is 2050. Multiple nations fight territorial skirmishes four miles underwater while arguing over how the ocean floor borders are to be decided. 

You are conscripted as a supercav subfighter pilot to fly a rocket powered one man vessel that flies in a bubble of gas at 300mph armed with cluster torpedos and ultrasonic beam weaponry.

Your squadron is on it's way towards Chinese territory, vast deep sea mining colonies hovering silently in the black waters ahead, visible on sonar. You recognize the blips scattering from those bases as subfighters similar to your own, spooling up their supercav drives and preparing to engage you. 

Then, suddenly, you hear a familiar sound. One not heard for many decades, a mysterious sound detected on Navy hydrophones and determined to be animal in origin. The Bloop.

But it's not on sonar. You heard it all around you, so loud that you can feel the hull vibrate. The conflict has awakened it, and it will soon join the fray.

My mom's friend's kid wanted me to put some games on her computer. I decided to just give her Visual Boy Advance since it's pretty much the simplest emulator around and she's only 7 so anything complicated might just confuse her. So I came up with a list of games that are E or E10 (actually, I think they're all E, but I'm not sure, some may be E10). Let me know if I'm missing anything important.

Dr. Mario & Puzzle League
Game & Watch Gallery 4
Kirby and the Amazing Mirror
Kirby Nightmare in Dreamland
Klonoa: Empire of Dreams
Konami Krazy Racers
Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga
Mario Golf Advance
Mario Kart Super Circuit
Mario Tennis Power Tour
Pac Man Collection
Pokemon Emerald
Pokemon Fire Red
Pokemon Pinball Ruby & Sapphire
Rayman Advance
Sonic Advance
Sonic Advance 2
Sonic Advance 3
Super Mario Advance
Super Mario Advance 2
Super Mario Advance 3
Super Mario Advance 4
The Legend of Spyro: The Eternal Night
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
The Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap
WarioWare

Anything else I should add? I was thinking about maybe Harvest Moon and Monster Rancher but they may be a bit too complicated for her.

Where is your god now Nintendroids?

>>Massive financial loss
>>Stock plummeting, investor confidence gone
>>3DS a horrible failure, Virtual Boy 2. 3DS XL is an even worse model.
>>No excitement or even consumer knowledge of WiiU which will bomb horribly because the Wiitard casual crowd already has tablets and phones and Wiis.

RIP Nintendo. This might be a good thing though. They and Sony can finally fulfill the prophecy and reunite after Nintendo screwed them over in favor of Panasonic (Brilliant move there) and make a Sony powered, Nintendo and Sony Software Driven behemoth.

Ok, /v/.
i bought a dreamcast a few months ago.
While i acknowledge that it's a decent console, I don't understand the "best system evar" bullshit.
I played Sonic Adventure and it's a mediocre platformer that aged horribly. Skies of Arcadia is a very good RPG, but nothing revolutionary. I have yet to play Shenmue. The controller is absolute shit: The analog stick is horrible, it is just cheap, uncomfortable and slippery (and there is only one). Also, it's unergonomic as fuck. 
The console is loud as hell (especially the CD-Drive).
The shmups on the Dreamcast are quite [spoiler]fun[/spoiler], though, I especially liked "Under Defeat".
Maybe it's time to put of the nostalgia goggles.

So my friend is coming over a lot more often as of late and I'm trying to see if I can find any Games that we can play on my computer. My Gamecube is perfectly fine, but eventually we get tired of Smash Bros, Sonic, Mario Party etc, so I'm looking for something that has multiplayer in depth (not just a 2 minute race to see who can shoot each other fastest.

I'm not a fan of shooters in general and I don't mind taking turns in some sort of competition mode or whatever. I'm into platformers and adventure type things. 

Any suggestions? Picture unrelated.

Hey /v/

Am I the only one who thinks the classic Sonic gameplay in this game is pretty disappointing?

Maybe I'm just judging it harshly because I've been playing Golden era Sonic games before I decided to start playing Generations. But I can't help but feel the experience is ruined by Classics unresponsiveness and just how overpowered the spin dash is. I'm still early into the game and really enjoyed the Metal Sonic fight but besides from that the classic platforming is just highly disappointing.

GET IN HERE IDEA GUYS

My idea: an acrobatics-based platformer where you play as Pikachu.

Gameplay would be fast-paced and similar in nature to the target stages in Smash Bros Melee, but with interactive objects such as springs, handlebars and switches that you can grab onto and bounce off of to propel Pikachu to the end of each level. These objects would form different melodies, similar in practice to BIT.TRIP Runner but more similar in musical style to De Blob.

Levels would be primarily 2D, with 3D tube-shaped stages (similar in layout to the special stages in Sonic Advance) interspersed throughout. Unlockable stages would also be present; these would be similar to the secret stages in Super Mario Sunshine, but faster-paced and roughly two to three times as difficult.

I'll start with Monster Hunter. Holy shit. HOLY FUCKING SHIT, I can't believe these guys are for real. The entire fanbase IS gamefags. You literally can't ask a simple question (in-game or online) without at least 5 fags "trolling" you with wrong information, then complaining about noobs ruining the game because they don't know absolutely everything about the meta-game (AND HOW THE FUCK DO THEY EXPECT NEW PLAYERS TO KNOW SHIT ABOUT HOW THE GAME WORKS, IF YOU SO CALLED HARDCORE ASSHOLES WON'T MISS A CHANCE TO SPREAD BULLSHIT ABOUT THE GAME MECHANICS?). I tried to put up with it, fine, I start looking for guides and walkthoughs and what do I find? Oh yeah, ONLINE RULES! Rule number 1: Don't get hit. Rule number two: NO AXES, NO SWORDS, LANCES AND TWO ATTACKS ONLY, FINAL DESTINATION!

Fuck that. Worst community ever, it's like /v/ thinking they are so hardcore except without the bitterfags and sagefags to keep them in check. It's a shame, the monster hunter games are great, but there's just a lot of community ruins it, LITERALLY. The game sucks because of the community, not even Sonic can pull that off.

Many of the composers from this game were retained for all future Sonic releases. Tomoya Ohtani might be the next Jun Senoue but with a more orchestral flavor.

Why are Sonic autists so worried about their "ORIGINAL __________ DO NOT STEAL" being stolen? They're not making any money off of these characters presumably, so wouldn't allowing the free use of their abominations only increase their popularity among other autists, or at the very least be flattered that someone wanted to use their character / story / dildo theme song?

This question genuinely bothers me.

First let me say that Iv'e been around the block when it comes to games. I've played all genres over a span of twenty years, yet I feel the phrase "overrated" has lost its meaning. Without further disruptions, the top ten most overrated games of all time. Comments?

10. Halo: Reach
9. Gears of War
8. Uncharted 2
7. Half-Life 2
6. Halo 3
5. Resident Evil
4. Modern Warfare 2
3. Tetris
2. Sonic Adventure
1. Grand Theft Auto IV

games that didn't make the list and why...

SKYRIM - yeah it's glitchy as shit, but be honest, you've put hours into this game.

Knights of the Old Republic - Does this game get held up as some unbelievably great RPG, a title it doesn't deserve? Oh yea it does! But while it hasn't aged well, it's still better than half the shit Bioware puts out today (I'm looking at you, Dragon Age)

Ocarina of Time - Overrated? Absolutly! Fun as hell? Yes.

Halo: Combat Evolved/Halo 2 - Say what you want about halo (trust me I could fill /v/ with my hate for it) but I have to give credit where credit is due.

Civilization V - This game has so much hate already, how could it be considered overrated?

Final fantasy 7 - ...now that you mention it, that shit is pretty overrated. Ok, lets just say it's #11 on the list.

So, this thing looks like a complete piece of shit to me right now IMO. Nothing really new in it at all. No new power-ups (an upgrade to the fire flower isn't new people), bosses are redos, nothing hidden, shit looks just so disappointing. Oh and fuck the "2" they put there and fuck them reusing "Raccoon" Mario AGAIN.

I really didn't think they could go lower than SM3DL (and I was stupid and bought that out of impulse hoping it would be good). 

I think I'm going to get myself a cheap copy of NSMBW (lol), and download some hacks on it before I spend money on another Mario game if shit like this is the future. I haven't played vanilla NSMBW anyway as well so it might be ok.

At least 3D Mario is still good to me. However, I don't think we are going to see that.

I haven't played any new Sonic games (last one was 7 Rings and that RPG, haven't played shit like Shadow, or 06 thank god at least) but considering how the fans are saying that Colors and Generations don't suck, I might try them out. Sonic the Hedgehog "4" looked like shit as well though.

Although I still think that people are just so use to Sonic being shit that they take anything at least playable and say it it is good.

But whatever, what do you guys think? Did Sonic's curse blast Mario and leave him or are they both still shitty?


name: BEST CLASSIC SONIC GAME
comment:
Alright, I'm a huge fan of the sega genesis, and I'll be the first to admit that the vast majority of sonic games well... suck. The suck hard. And we can stop lying to ourselves, Generations was utter crap as well.

But what about the golden days? The Original Sonic The hedgehog was a classic.

Sonic 2 took everything the original did and expanded it, but can it match the classic?

Sonic CD added in a cool time travel element which gave us a choice system that effects more than just a game's ending (I'm looking at you Bioshock)

Finally, Sonic 3 and Knuckles gave us 14 zones of unique game play with a great story and the ability to play as Sonic, Knuckles, and Tails.

But which of these 4 games is truly the greatest classic Sonic game?

Obviously it has some flaws. Some people probably didn't like the floatiness of Sonic or maybe the double jump, or the "box puzzles". Some of the 3D sections were bullshit to, like the first minute of Starlight Carnival Act 1 juist being Sonic running with no input whatsoever. A lot of its flaws are also inherent from the new modern formula and are shared by Unleashed/Generations, too.

I dunno. I felt like the game at least tried to do a service to the series.

The battle for the greatest SONIC THE HEDGEHOG ZONE is under way. The first round of voting/debating was very successful! As promised, here are here results of that round. Some victories came easy, while others were VERY close calls.
Currently, most of the zones that have progressed to the second round are from Sonic the Hedgehog 2, but tomorrow at noon (eastern standard time), the second half of the bracket will be reveled and voting on those participants will begin.
A few mentions should be highlighted; For one thing, I find it surprising that not one, but TWO water zones managed to progress to round 2. These zones are often hated by fans of the genesis games. Just take a look at the match up between SKY SANCTUARY and LABYRINTH zone to see what I mean.
Now you have the chance to support OR argue against some of these match results. Be aware though that matches that resulted in landslide victories will not be changed.

So what do you think /v/? Are you pleased with the results so far?

title: TL; DR - Tails the Fox: The Game
comment:
So I was playing Sonic CD. I hated it, as I do with all the Sonic games. I just find the level designs uninteresting.

Anyway, it was the only game with me while on the train so I decided to persist with it.

I finally finished the game and realised I unlocked Tails. 
"Hmm, cool," I thought.
With 10 minutes til my stop, I thought I'd play the first few levels with him.

And my God, I had so much more fun. The ability to fly, along with Tails design, made the game so much more enjoyable. He was better to look at and his flying ability added a bit more exploration.

It then got me thinking, why the hell is Tails Sonic's assistant? His budd'roo in crime? 
He is as fast as sonic AND can fly. Not to mention, he has a far more interesting design.

Why don't they scrap sonic and all the shitty characters associated with him and make a 'Tails the Fox' game?

Just get rid of his obnoxious voice actor/ress, and rethink his personality. Better yet, don't give him a voice.

What do you guys think? I've never liked Sonic but I found adding Tails can add a better dimension to the game without feeling forced to make each game a "gotta' go fast" racing game.

During the Rex vs Ray fight, Metal Gear Rex's cockpit is located in the lower jaw of its mouth which was where Snake and The Mk.2 where sitting at, and when Rex auto detects a close range threat it automatically switches to its Street Fighter defense program using its Top Half body as weapon to defend itself how would Snake not get crushed when Rex bit Ray multiple times if his mouth is also the cockpit?

If Liquid's modified Ray has its head open all the time now like Rex since his now has a cockpit and not AI controlled how didn't he not drown when Ray was underwater?

Why did Snake suddenly get super human abilities in Twin Snakes?

Are The Sorrow,Psycho Mantis and Screaming Mantis linked somehow?Where does their Super Natural Powers come from?

Big Boss said FoxDie is what really killed Eva and Ocelot,So why didn't it kill Ocelot during Act 3 along with Eva?

How does Athena still live in God of War 3 if a God is immortal and once it is been killed, It cease to exist?Why just her and not the other Gods?

How was Clank created at the Great Clock but born on Planet Quartu?

Why do they loose the Chaos Emerald around the World and not just leave them at the Master Emerald Shrine since that's where the the Knuckles Tribe kept them?

Why was no one surprised to see Shadow still alive in Sonic Heroes?

If The Flash is overpowered by facts why doesn't he just kill Darkseid?

So apparently mods are deleting ALL threads about Japanese games.

To test this, I will now make a Sonic thread and see if it gets deleted.

What's your favorite Sonic game and why? Inb4 all Sonic 3 and Knuckles responses.

I've played Sonic 1,2,3,4 and Sonic CD.

I'm pretty much a fanboy by this point and these games are fun as fuck, but I barely played any of the modern ones. I'm afraid to be disappointed by 3D titles.

That said... Anything worth it?

Hey /v/, you know what we REALLY need in gaming?

Games where you get to play as the antagonists.

And no, I'm not talking about games where you're a neutral character that has the option of siding with a bad group, I'm saying that you should be able to actually play as the antagonists and go through their parts of the story, completing evil missions/objectives while running into the heroes every now and then. Kind of like Sonic Adventure 2, you know what I mean?

I know I'm not the only one out there that wants to play as the bad guys for once.

Have you guys been following this? It's been going on for a few days. The next round of voting begins at midnight. 
Predictions?

So far the voting has been very successful! We are well on our way to discovering the official sonic zone of /v/!

The last wave of voting ushered in some interesting results. FLYING BATTERY ZONE set a new record and won its match up by a whopping 98% of the vote! Other matches were much closer. Just take look at the result of MYSTIC CAVE and LAUNCH BASE, a battle which was decided by a 2% difference!

Tonight marks the beginning of the quad finals! Some matches look to be interesting, such as FLYING BATTERY vs. METROPOLIS, in which both zones are Robotnik styled factory zones. And then the battle of the water zones takes place in HYDROCITY vs AQUATIC RUIN!

Tonight, the polls will be open to roughly 3 AM (Eastern standard Time), but another voting session will be held at noon (Eastern Standard Time).

Don't hesitate to make arguments to support your decisions!

The polls are open, let the voting/debating begin!

Hey everyone, I need some help with this.
I have recently downloaded Sonic Generations from this url:
http://www.mediafire.com/?154eza59n0t42
It took a while, but after installing it, it took me to the game settings and all that. It then gave me the common problem of the error message that comes up if you don't run the game config program as administrator, but I found the solution easily, and solved it.
However, when I try to launch the game, it keeps giving me this blank error message. I've been googling how to get around this for about 2 hours, but I can't find anything.
Does anyone know how I can get it to work?

Yesterday, the voting for round 2 came to an end, and as a result we are one step closer to naming the official Sonic The Hedgehog zone of /v/!

There was much debating done yesterday, and it was interesting to see how the final results were not quite what many predicted they would be.

Your Elite 8 consists of very diverse zones, so much that every single one has something unique that the others do not.
SKY SANCTUARY, for instance, is the only zone in the Elite 8 that has one act.
CHEMICAL PLANT ZONE is the only zone to make it this far that is not from Sonic 3 and Knuckles.
ANGEL ISLAND ZONE is the only starting zone left in the competition.
these are just examples for three of the 8 unique zones left in the bracket.

The voting for the quarter-finals begins tomorrow at noon (Eastern Standard Time). If you have any questions, want to vote early, or want to assist in the creation of the next bracket we make, email us at theonlybigred@gmail.com

For now, share your thoughts on what you think of the shape of the tourny. Who do you think will win? Who do you WANT to win? And what do you think of the results of round 2? Tell us, /v/!
See you tomorrow!

Well everyone, it's that time again. Today, the elite 8 zones of The Sonic The Hedgehog Tournament of /v/ go at it.

Of the 8 zones remaining, only one has one act, and only one is not from Sonic 3 and Knuckles. There is only one water stage, one fire stage, and an ice stage.

It's time to decide which zones will move on to the next round. The results of this round will be shown at Midnight (eastern standard time). Then we will take a short break and hold the semifinals on WEDNESDAY at noon (eastern standard time).

Can Chemical Plant hold out against the Sonic 3 and Knuckles stages any longer? Can Angel Island continue to defeat stages that have higher difficulties?
It's time to decide! Oh, and don't hesitate to back up your decisions if you wish to. Go at it, /v/!

I bought the original Deus Ex (game of the year edition) on Steam. It ran perfectly the first time, and it ran perfectly when I had a tech guy in the room, but every other time I've tried to run it, it experiences the following problems.

1. The game runs WAY too fast. NPCs scurry around, and JC Denton runs like Sonic the fucking Hedgehog. The mouse sensitivity, even on its lowest setting, is so unbelievably high that the slightest twitch spins me around 180°. And all dialogue audio gets cut off about 2/3 of the way through, so that everyone only speaks the first parts of their sentences.

2. About 1/3 of the time, upon startup, it becomes stuck on the title screen. I can't access the main menu.

The first problem, according to Google, has been experienced by other players. The following fixes, which worked for these people, have NOT worked for me.

1. Enabling cheats and using "slomo 0.2". This changes nothing.

2. Using the Task Manager to assign the game application to use only one processor. This not only changes nothing; even if it did work, the computer doesn't memorize this setting; so I would have to do this every time I ran the game.

The second problem, unlike the first, has apparently, according to Google, never been experienced by anyone.

(I will be making this thread both on /v/ and on /g/. Please don't tell me I'm on the wrong board. You guys are, for the most part, video game afficionados. Maybe you have encountered problems like this before. It can't hurt to ask you.)

Sonic Confessions thread because I have things on my chest that need saying

I think Sonic Heroes and Shadow the Hedgehog were great game and I enjoyed playing both of them thoroughly.
I think Sonic Unleashed is just as good a game as the Adventure games.
I was honestly not all that impressed with Generations for kind of the opposite reason of liking Unleashed: having a nostalgia fest at all the old stuff is ok but it's kind of lazy and I would much rather have a brand new batch of levels and content.

So yeah, put your own confessions, disagree or agree with my opinions, whatever you want.

Sonic & Knuckles Collection. What do you think of it, /v/?

I loved it as a kid because it allowed me to play Sanic on my computer. There was, however, one thing that bothered me about it: the music. The Sega Genesis version had significantly better music, in my opinion.

With the exception of one level, that is: Launch Base Zone.

Seriously, if you think the original song is more fitting for the stage than this version, there is something wrong with you.

>But while Sakurai admits the company needs to adapt to incorporate new controller options, he's adamant the rest of the game doesn't need to change to remain fresh. Having had three very successful entries in the franchise, the former Project Sora boss feels the series has found its target audience, meaning introducing gimmicks would hinder rather than help the brand.

>"The game system itself is complete, so we don’t want to make it 3D or introduce complicated controls just for the sake of it," he said. "However, I am thinking of ways we can introduce a slightly different, fun experience all the while keeping the usual frantic game play."

We have covered a lot of ground on our way to naming the official Sonic Zone of /v/, but now it’s time for the semi finals to take place! Voting will begin now and will carry on for an hour or so. Results will be posted at midnight (Eastern Standard Time). Voting for the Final Match will begin tomorrow at noon (Eastern Standard Time). Don’t hesitate to email us if you have any questions or want to assist with the creation of the next bracket.

The matches for today include CHEMICAL PLANT ZONE vs HYDROCITY ZONE

And

FLYING BATTERY ZONE vs ICE CAP ZONE

CHEMICAL PLANT has decisively won all of its match-ups up to this point. Many have predicted in previous threads that if it could defeat Sky Sanctuary last round (which it did by 8%), it will would go on to win the tournament.

HYDROCITY has shocked many that predicted a water zone would never make it this far into the bracket. Indeed, it has had some close battles, but voters have insisted that its level design and music make it unique when compared to other water zones.

FLYING BATTERY has arisen from a quadrent of the bracket with strong competitors, such as the classic Green Hill Zone and Metropolis Zone. Regardless, it has had little difficulty making it to this point.

ICE CAP has literally dominated everything it has come up against. It currently averages above a 75% win record for every match. Can it defeat Flying Battery this easily? 

Don't hesitate to defend your choices with arguments.
So /v/, what will it be?

This is it. After several days of voting, 32 zones from Sonic 1, 2, and 3 have been reduced to only two zones.
One of these will be named the official Sonic Zone of /v/.

Polls will remain open for voting all night. The results will be announced tomorrow at 7 PM (Eastern Standard Time). If you have any questions, don't hesitate to email us.

It's time to decide, /v/. Defend your choice with reasoning if you feel inclined to.

Earlier today, the polls opened to vote for the winner of the Greatest Sonic the hedgehog Zone Tournament. The results? We're basically deadlocked. That's right, the vote is so incredibly close, that we will be holding an extra voting session.

In this session please state WHY you believe your choice is superior. You don't have to write an essay, a few words is enough.

The results will be shown here on /v/ at 7:30 PM Eastern Standard Time, tomorrow. We are also currently accepting ideas for the next /v/ tournament.

So /v/, which will it be? HYDROCITY or ICE CAP?

Why do video game series tend to go in this cycle: 2>1>3? A lot of games do this. They start off with game 1, improve the game in it's sequel, and fuck everything up at the third. Some games that do this are:

>Super Smash Bros.
>Paper Mario
>Assassin's Creed
>Banjo Kazooie
>[spoiler]Halo[/spoiler]
>The original Sonic the Hedgehog games
>Saints Row

But is there even a way for game developers to actually stop this from happening? I can see that Darksiders is heading down this path as we speak.

Lately, I've realized something. I think all the best installations for major series are on the SNES. Does this make me a fanboy, or just correct?

Think about it.

>A Link to the Past
>Super FUCKING Metroid
>Final Fantasy III/VI
>Mega Man X
>Super Castlevania IV
>Street Fighter II Turbo
>Donkey Kong Country 2
>Contra III
>Mortal Kombat II

Like, the only exceptions I can think of are Metal Gear Solid for PSX, Starfox 64 for N64, F-Zero GX for GCN, and Mario Kart DS. Also, the Sonic games, I guess ([spoiler]Sonic 2 and Sonic 3 & Knuckles were the only ones that aren't shit[/spoilers]).

Things that reviews and previews for games always mention that don't matter to you one bit but for some reason they always get mentioned like they're a special achievement of game design.

>Review for a Sonic game
- and the rings all make the ding sound at the right time when sonic hits them!
- nice "fanservice easter egg" when Sonic is underwater and about to drown it plays the classic "drowning" tune! 

>Review for Metroid game
- it's great game, but there's a some back tracking

Ok so I can't think of much else. But that Sonic sounds from collecting the rings is one I've read in multiple reviews and I never understand why that gets mentioned.

http://gameboy.ign.com/articles/324/324071p1.html

"Sound
The developers have mimicked the ring collection "chime" perfectly on the GBA. The music has a very "synthesizer" sound throughout the game...very much like, but slightly better than the Genesis audio"

just one such example of this weird phenomenon of reviewers mentioning the sounds the rings make. Can you think of other things like this?

Did you know that there is an arcade version of the first Sonic game? Well, now you do.
Also, did you know that it has TIME LIMITS?
You have a limited time to finish each act. There are 4 difficulty levels(on the hardest level you only have 30 seconds to finish GHZ Act 1).
Not all the zones are avaiable though. There are Green Hill, Spring Yard, Starlight and Scrap Brain Zone, but no Marble or Labirynth, probably because their acts are too long.

You can easily find the MAME rom by googling it.

The only way Archie could have done their Sonic comic right would have been by not introducing even more characters nobody gave two fucks about AND having much less serious situations (i.e. Sonic and Sally have a baby. Don't ask, don't tell.) I don't know if they pulled the same bullshit off with their Megaman comic series, but from what i heard they didn't. Discuss.

Banjo series.
Metroid Prime (or hell, Metroid in general) series.
Freedom Fighters.
Bully.
Super Mario Sunshine.
Beyond Good and Evil.
Rayman 2.

All of these great games.
And where are their sequels today?

Nuts and Bolts was one of the greatest disappointments in the history of video games.
Other M was the Sonic '06 of the Metroid series.
Freedom Fighters was pushed aside because of fucking Kane & 6.

The one game I'm looking forward to is GTA V. And it's still not a Bully sequel, so it won't be anything special to me.

Any time a new "long-awaited sequel" is announced, it's hyped for a while, and they we find out they're giving it to Bioware to release on the iPhone or whatever the fuck.

What has happened to video games?

What happened to all the video games?

Do you think getting all 14 emeralds on S3&K was difficult, easy or just normal?

It was quite one of the best achievements in the story of vidya, but what's your take on it? Do you remember the first time you figured out how the S&K bonus stages worked differently from the S3 ones? 

Also, Sonic CD: 
Underrated today?
Back in the day it was released on the Sega CD so it was mostly a niche game. People praised it, but it was still a very niche game, popular, but not massive.
People over the years started emulating it and was considered by many the best Sonic ever, rivaling head to head with S3&K.
However since recent years, people start saying it has bad level design, that it's a clusterfuck, etc... which I don't see at all in the game, it is different, but not BAD. Sometimes I feel like it's just a bandwagon everyone starts jumping. Could be because they played it now that they're already adults and their tastes have changed, or because they didn't give it enough time, I don't know.

About a year ago, I remember seeing this Sonic Fan video. I can't remember if it was a fan game or rendered 3D video, but I do remember it looked somewhat solid up until near the end of the video, where sonic takes a look towards the camera and UHHHH


I saved this screenshot a while ago, but forgot what video it was. Anyone remember seeing this?

It has some upsides, the hitboxes aren't bad, the crests look quite nice, the basic classes you have access to aren't bad either, the maps are ok.

But there's no singleplayer, Ive only seen 2 maps, and we don't know about modding support. Also a cash shop.

I've been hooked on the Sonic franchise since first playing Sonic 2 on the Genesis. Not only are most of the games pretty fun but I'm a big fan of most of the music, possibly even more so than the games themselves.
Over the years I've been collecting the better sountracks and remix albums I could find but I'm still not sure I have all the good ones.
Anyone know of any rare Sonic albums I may not already have, or any good independent mixes of Sonic songs? I especially like (most of) the vocal tracks.
In return, some of the better finds I've come across.

All right, Welcome to the fourth thread. Game of the Week Club is where anons will get together to play one video game for a week, then discuss it.

Bad news out of the way first, Wufoo is yet again another terrible polling software. While it allowed for limiting votes to 1 vote per IP, unlike Google Forms, it also had a limit of 100 entries. Pretty shit. I can't just delete entries and try to run the same form again, because it's permanently closed, and starting a new form on Wufoo means people who voted yesterday will have another vote.

So we have two options.
>stick with the results we got from 100 entries (feasible?)
>Try another polling program (No way to carry over results; we'd have to vote ALL over again...)

Any other ideas are definitely appreciated.

Here are the results as of last night's 100 votes:
Actraiser: 9
American McGee's Alice: 2
Amnesia: 4
Bioshock: 2
Borderlands: 4
Day of the Tentacle: 1
Deponia: 1
Einhander: 5
FO2: 3
FFIX: 11
FFX: 7
Homeworld: 3
Icewind Dale 2: 5
Megaman 3: 10
Prince of Persia: 3
Republic Commando: 7
RCT: 4
Sonic: 3
Syberia: 3
Toribash: 2
Tropico 4: 2
Ultima 4: 2
Warcraft 3: 6

FFIX is in the lead with 11, Megaman 3 has 10, and Atraiser has nine. We COULD try repolling with just those three games, but we need to find a new form hosting solution... plus you guys might be sick of voting.

Oldfag here, not saying how old, but let's just say I was alive during most of the 80's and gamed through most of it too.

So, tell me, why am I still enjoying games, probably even moreso than I did when I was a kid? According to /v/, gaming is dead, every game is shit, and we should all give up on it. Despite growing up playing games like Castlevania, Mega Man, Ultima, Bard's Tale, Commander Keen, Doom, Sonic, Blaster Master, Ninja Gaiden, Super Smash Tv, and more, I am enjoying a lot of current games. Not all, mind you, but a good many of them still hold my interest.

Now, don't get me wrong, there's a lot wrong with gaming today, mainly just from a business aspect and a lot of the times, I tend to agree with some of the shared cynicism and jaded mentalities here, but all in all, I think gaming is just as good now as it was then. 

So, tell me, /v/, why are so many of you jaded like you are? Surely a man as old as myself should be ripping his hair out and burning the world down with his fury at all the shitty games we have, right? Gaming has been my number one hobby all of my life, yet I'm nowhere near as angry as you guys are.

Why are Sonic fans the worst fans ever? MLP is quickly catching up to them, but holy fuck the sheer amount of terrible fanart, costumes, fanfics, and other douchebaggery is beyond belief.

Sonic hasn't even been relevant in vidya for years excepting the last 2 or so. By all rights his only fans should be hitting their mid to late 20's, and not be so inclined to fuck up the internet, and yet the fandom attracts tweens and teens spamming their shitty art on Deviantart everyday.

Lets talk Casual games /v/ and why and what makes a game considered "casual". 

First, is a casual game in and of itself a bad thing? I mean these games are considered casual by most and /v/ seems to like them. 

> Pokemon
> Mario (some of them) 
> The Elder Scrolls series (all of them were are are casual for their time period)
> Sonic
> Counter Strike
> Team Fortress 2
> Any MMO
> Street Fighter

Is it simply being popular what makes a game casual? Why is that a bad thing? Yeah I know normalfags blah blah blah, but you have to deal with normalfags in reality, so why should it matter of some games have a higher imbalance of normalfags than another game?

So I've been chatting with a friend (myself) recently and I've discovered that Sonic is actually a pimp. I contacted SEGA and confronted them about this and demanded answers. They were so intimated by my manliness they confirmed in the next Sonic & SEGA All Stars Racing vidya he will have a purple Cadillac, a skull cane and a pimp hat (as proven by that concept art)

Now I know what you're wondering: how the fuck did a man of such great stature such as myself find out Sonic was a pimp?

Well since I have no life like my fellow /v/irgins, I wanted to become popular by finding out some gaming secret that no one gives a fuck about.

So I played every Sonic game, watched every show and movie, read all the comics and searched up all the Rule 34 to make and compile a list of all of Sonic's past and present loves

The list is:
Amy 
Elise 
Mina 
Bunnie 
Tiara 
Madonna 
Breezie 
Fiona 
Merna 
Tailsko 
Rouge
Shara 
and

So... 
I recharged my GBA SP after more than a year without playing it, and decided to play a little Sonic Battle to remember the old times. Then I found out that my save file had been DELETED. I know that after a long time the cartridge could be unable to save, because of the internal battery, and stuff... but, DELETE the game? Strange... Anyway, after lamenting by the loss of all my rare skills and dozens of hours spent on that FUCKING VIRTUAL TRAINING, I played a quick match in Battle Mode. But, in the middle of the fight, the game crashed. Great... I turned off the GBA, removed and inserted the cartridge, and when I turned on, the game was with a save file with almost 10 hours of gameplay. The player name was "Guti" e he was at Emrl's story. There weren't many unlocked skills (only 25%). The interesting thing is that, of the save's game time, there were ZERO HOURS of Battle Time. And I can't say that it was a randomly generated file (lol), since Emrl's equipped skills were good and made some sense. And now the best part: I turned off the GBA. Turned on again, and the save file had been deleted again (it went to the player name input screen). I played a little, turned off again, and when I turned on again, there was the Guti save file again, and FROM WHERE I HAD LEFT (with a couple of minute added from the Play Time).

Hmmm, lets see here...
I aint the oldest gamer, I am only 16
But I have the memory of my first vidya...
It was Harvest Moon.
And let me tell ya, I harvested the SHIT out of that moon.
Hell, most the time I didnt even know what I was doing, but it was a blast.
As time went on I got more and more vidyas on my old playstation.
Then, a babysitter came over when I was still little, and he brought a gamecube.
He let me play 2 games. Smash Brothers Melee and a pokemon game on one of those fancy smancy gameboy players.
That christmas, while my friends bragged about PS2 and Xbox, I had me gamecube.
Best. Childhood, ever.
I had the Zelda Collection, got to play Zelda, Zelda Ocarina of Time, Majoras Mask.
Mario Games, Pokemon, Sonic, all that cool shit.
Best days ever.
My parents were worried about me being to game focused, but they kinda let it be after a while, they knew I had fun.
They knew I was a gamer Larvae.
Now I have played all the NES and SNES vidyas I missed.
Genesis, Saturn.
All that fun shit
And now I am no longer a larvea, I am a Gamer Buttafli
And I play all the vidyas.
And it all began.
With Harvest Moon.
Damn

Who's excited? Commence the speculation:

>Online Leaderboards
>Trade Chao/Chaos Drives/Fruit/Eggs
>Visit Chao Gardens of people on your friends list
>More than 3 Gardens, maybe larger capacity of space within gardens
>mb more chao types? Though I'm pretty sure they've come up with everything at this point

But for all we know, it could be nothing but a high def SA2, which I wouldn't be totally upset about

So what exactly is the Scrap Brain of Scrap Brain Zone?

Where are the living quarters for the people of Hydrocity zone? It is a city after all.

Who created Carnival Night Zone?

How do floating platforms work? 

What does the outside of Metropolis Zone look like?

What is Casino Night Zone called in the daytime?

Is Flying Battery Zone an upgraded Wing Fortress Zone?

At what point did Amy Rose change her look in the in game universe before Sonic Adventure?

Just WHAT is Blaze the Cat's true backstory? Is she the same one in 06' just misplaced by time and space with memory loss?

Who sets up all the floating rings in all the zones? Surely not Robotnik. Why doesn't he just order his badniks to take down all the rings if they give Sonic and friends power?

What happened to Mecha Sonic?

Sorry sonic fans its true sonic was the first Recolor if you dont think im right check the link out.

I just came across this when i was searching recolors, I was like “WTF he’s a recolor?!?”

I am sad to here that but dont blame the recolor people, SEGA was the first people to do it.

Sonic is unoriginal Mikey the mouse is unoriginal too, because he is based off of Oswald so Mickey mouse is a recolor too.

You just need to throw on some pants ant they will look just alike trust me they will. 

This is why Sega suck they have no original charaters now, sadly out of all the animals there only tails is an original charater.

:facepalm: How sad soinc isnt original and tails is

let me go sit in a cornor and cry tears of pain :cry:

Ok /v/ I got a deal for ya,

>Mario&Luigi RPG with Wario and Waluigi, the game is however you like it. Could have two stories with both Bros and then a 3rd one where they join forces once you have beaten both. We get a lot of info on Waluigi and Wario, also this game is so popular they put Waluigi in many mainstream Mario games to come. There will be Boss fights between the two. There will be a scene in the game where they fight in the castle from Mario Land 2 with a awesome remix of the Wario boss theme from that game. End game is getting 6 Golden Coins to open up boss rush, secret bosses etc.

>Mario&Luigi PRG with Sonic and Tails, worlds collide and such, you can have as little and as many other Sonic characters as you want in the story. Eggman will team up with Bowser, there will be a Metal Mario/Metal Sonic VS Mario/Sonic bossfight. You will travel throught Mario and Sonic worlds. 7 Chaos Emeralds for final boss with Super Mario, Super Luigi, Super Sonic, Super Tails. End game is getting the Super Emeralds from secret bosses for Hyper forms and general game breaking overpowered fun.

YOU CAN ONLY HAVE ONE. The other will never be made.

I need to get something off of my chest. People say that Sonic Adventure 2 is the greatest 3D Sonic game, if not the greatest Sonic game, ever. I need to ask: why? Did anybody else actually spending 20 minutes the first time they played trying to find the final emerald piece in the ground, or, if they knew where it was, trying to figure out how the hell to reach it? What was up with the levels for Tails and Eggman, where you hold down the action button and then release right before the beam disappears for the most points? Every Sonic/Shadow stage is linear as hell except for Sky Rail, and Chao Garden is an excuse to make you play the same levels over and over again.

Before anyone says "Well the other 3Ds were shit so by default..." No. Sonic Adventure had fewer linear levels, didn't focus so hard on the Chao garden, and only had like five levels involving holding down the action button. So does Adventure 2 get a free lunch or something?

I would like to make a CWC game. 

The plot would be the trolls unleash troll hell on CWCville and capture the 7 princesses (Blanca, Megan, PandaHalo, Kacey, Julie, Wallflower and Ivy) and it's mayor and his best friends (Sonichu, Rosechu, Bob the internet Lumberjack and the spirit of Patti, his dog) must rise to the occasion and fight off the trolls and save the princesses. Leading the trolls would be Clyde Cash, Liquid Chris, Miyamoto, The Man in the Pickle Suit and Jimmy Hill. 

It'd be a hack and slash RPG with tons of equipment, items and talents with extreme customization. The graphics would be top notch Witcher/Crysis level. There would be co op campaign (with someone playing as CWC and as a sidekick). Boss fights would be super huge and over the top and some would be puzzle based. Multiple different endings (including ones where trolls win) based off of how much mercy you show through out the game. 

Chris would have Curse-ye-ha-me-ha and other Cherokee curse magic (all of which would have elaborate talent trees) and he gains different weapons such as the Guitar hero guitar and the giant straw. 

The game would obviously be a huge parody of his entire life, everything ridiculous from his entire life trolling saga will make an appearance, all minor trolls and characters and all his family and friends make appearances. All the locations (his cluttered house, CWCville, Ruckersville court house, Wendys, the mall, Cleveland and many more) would make appearances as well. Everything from the beginning to the end will be covered. But at the same time, it'd be a tragic and dark story that will make you baww about making sacrifices.

Pic related, it'd be in this art style. Would /v/ play?

I guess its that time.

http://www.officialnintendomagazine.co.uk/41185/wii-u-specs-surprising-says-sonic-developer/

"There are always surprises and unexpected challenges when you develop on a new console," said Lycett. "When we first got our hands on the kit, the first surprise was the capability of the GPU (Graphics Processing Unit). We'd been worried that we might need to re-engineer all the effects and shaders in the game, but they worked just fine."

The Sumo producer also complimented the memory which has helped his team make Sonic Racing look smart on Wii U. "The Wii U looks as good as any of the HD platforms. The Wii U has way more memory, so we can take advantage of that with less compression on elements and textures, so it will look all lovely and shiny."

anyone can get this to work on sega CD emulation?
my Sega CD is dead so I usually run Kega Fusion with the Sega CD bios to play my games with no problem using my PC's disc drive.
However, I can't get Silpheed to work. I see the intro and the press start screen but then it gets frozen before the game starts.

Something similar happens with Sonic CD's visual mode. I can see the op and ed movies, but whenever I try to watch the "pencil sketch" movie, I just get a glitch image.

All of this happens whether I'm using the physical game or a downloaded ISO, so I'm dismissing any problem from the CDs themselves, must be an emulation problem.

Whether videogames are really growing deeper, more meaningful and more profound is irrelevant to these people -- they must and will be shown to be doing so in order to assuage the bad conscience of men-children! These people have at last come to crave some degree of seriousness and profundity in their lives, some depth of feeling, some measure of spirituality; as human beings it is almost a biological necessity for them, and definitely a sociological one (this is the origin of their bad conscience -- the pressure to "grow up"), and since they have not bothered at any point to take an interest in, say, history, literature or philosophy -- fields of human endeavor which would have quenched the thirst for depth and spirituality of even the most spiritually thirsty human being, leaving him now with the opposite need, a need for frivolity, shallowness, playfulness, in short, a need for games -- the only place they can look for spirituality now is in the only place they know. And if they can't find it there, if it turns out that it simply doesn't exist there, that will in no way prevent them from miraculously discovering it -- by inventing it.

They are not even content with deluding themselves that modern games have reached a new level of profundity, and therefore deserve to be analysed in a more profound manner -- they will go back and reanalyse the past (Mario, Zelda, Sonic or whatever) as if that profundity had always existed but failed to be recognised -- defiling, in the process, everything that was geniune about the past: its simple, honest, childish innocence.

You know what'd be cool? If TF2 had a single-player campaign that took the game from RED vs BLU into Mann vs Machine. I imagine it'd be something like Sonic Adventure, where you start off as the Scout for the first few missions, and then the game branches with a campaign for each class, ultimately concluding in a final set that encompasses all classes as you switch between each.

Today in my programming class I had the displeasure of meeting a sega+nintendo fan-girl who makes her own "original" characters. This girl honestly believes that her recolored Sonic and Nights characters are "original" and could actually become a reality someday. I know she thinks they're original because she kept saying original over and over and over as if she were trying to convince me they were.

I honestly had no idea what to say in response to her without literally tearing a new asshole in her life dreams. I felt as if I was speaking to CWC. She also showed me her sketches of several Nights characters that were essentially just palette swaps with some new designs.

Passable, but the color pallete was limited and would-be colorful games felt dirty or washed out.

I love my Genesis. The resolution stayed the same as the NES but the number of colors increased. It was a real joy looking at the visuals.
>"32 bit"
ALL OF MY MONEY. High quality pixel art is the greatest thing ever made. Increase the resolution, double the number of colors (while still keeping a limit), and you've got yourself a real piece of art. Neo Geo, Metal Slug, SNK Capcom KoF et al games, SegaSonic, etc.

tl;dr Why don't we have any indie games that emulate 32 bit style graphics? They're the most uniquely stylized; as of right now, they have no decent modern titles.

Hey /v/ I've been looking to build up my small Dreamcast game collection. I know I can pirate any of the games since it's so easy to but I want to own the essentials in their original format. 

My current collection is: 
Sonic Adventure 1 & 2
Power Stone 1 & 2
Jet Grind Radio
Crazy Taxi
Marvel vs. Capcom 1 & 2
SF3: 3rd Strike
Phantasy Star Online

These are all games I got years ago when they were still in retail. I'm looking to get Skies of Arcadia at the moment. What else do you guys recommend?

This can also be a general Dreamcast thread if you'd like.

I was so happy that I finally got all the three best Sonics on the go with decent control... but then I put the cartridge on and holy shit, what kind of bad joke is this? This piece of shit can't even hold a decent fps when there are two elements on screen (one of them being Sonic), it has so many graphical issues, fuck, you can't pause the fucking game with Start! What were they thinking? 

I know Sega couldn't make a decent Sonic game in years now, but how could they fuck old Sonics up so bad? And how come Nintendo licensed this piece of shit?

I can't tell you how fucking mad I am.

Time to recommend the OP some games!

I have a younger brother who is ten in a couple of weeks. I want to get him a couple of co-op PC games for his birthday that we can play together over the internet. We play Worms together sometimes but I'm more looking for stuff which has a story and we can work together on.

Obviously, he's ten so use your common sense. No shooters but I don't mind stuff with mild violence or violent themes. He's into Mario and Sonic and stuff at the moment, but I'd rather give him something new and exciting which he can learn to love rather than pander to his closed interests.

Why are people constantly calling this game hard? Is it the fact that it's an RPG that solely doesn't rely on your stats but on your skills? 

I guess most current gen games are extremely easy making a medium difficulty game like Dark Souls seem hard. I mean, Sonic Adventure 2 was never called hard yet that shit had some intense boss fights at the end namely that fucking biolizard and those fucking space stages when you play as Shadow. And Lost gadget with Sonic. I guess it never got any attention because the game never said that it was hard.

Hell even Metroid Prime 2 was hard as fuck when you have to fight the Ing emperor at the end. So why? Why does this game get so much good feedback for being hard? It's a good game and I enjoy it, it's just not as hard as people make it out to be.

Sonic Generations made Shadow the Hedgehog non-cannon.

Think about it, the Shadow you fight in Gens. is from the SA2 time period and at the end of the game he is taken to the present (post Colours) 

He is mostly filled in on things by Rouge.

So Gens. made Sonic better in more ways than you think!

I'm planning on doing a huuuuge mash up of vidya theme tunes. 
Here's what I've got down already:
Street Fighter IV theme
Zelda Theme
Halo Theme
Mortal Kombat
Metal Gear Solid 2 theme
Sonic green hill zone music
Tetris
Tekken
Call of John: Modern Lennon
Nier (that cool song)
DMC 3's theme
GTA IV's theme/Vice City/San Andreas
Super Mario
Gamecube intro
PS2 intro
Battlefield 3 intro (that dub-ish noise and the opening credits)
Timesplitters 2 siberia theme/chicago theme/chinese theme

The idea is they won't be remixed in a truly bastardized way (no drum 'n' bass or dubstep remixes - gonna keep the music pretty much the same but change some of it around) and i'll also be throwing in a lot of voice overs of character voices to make it more interesting to listen to. 

Gimme some recommendations guys!

Sonic 3 & Knuckles is overrated. Sonic 2 is the much better game, and the best of the Sonic games for the Sega Genesis. The reasons for this are simple. Sonic 2's colors are much more vibrant, the graphics are less busy, and the levels are more memorable and less tedious. Among other reasons.

The only thing that can reasonably be argued is better about Sonic 3 & Knuckles is the music and the length of the game.

You're welcome.

>That said however, reports from several sources at Pax have slowly started to come in, specifically regarding Sonic Adventure 2 and a number of interesting tid bits of information have come to light. Hit that read more button to find out what.

>First of all, this version of SA2 appears to be Sonic Adventure 2: Battle and not the Dreamcast original. Why does that matter? Well without boring you with the details, there are some differences between the original SA2 and SA2:B, Both SSMB member Shade Vortex and Bartman3010 over at Sonic Retro both claim this to be Sonic Adventure 2: Battle, which makes the next piece of information all the more curious.

>Sonic Adventure 2 is getting DLC. How is that possible? Well, Shade Vortex was able to talk with Mr Ken Balough who told him… "that the Battle addon will be paid-for DLC." Yay, they’re doing an SADX again!

You go fast, I get that. But then you just run straight into some death trap or get bounced around randomly because you have no fucking idea where you're going and can't see far enough ahead. 

When I reach the end of a level I feel like I've missed something because there was lots of shit in the level that I didn't explore, but I wonder if it was even necessary to explore, or just get to the end as quickly as possible.

I met a girl on Counter Strike Source, 2 years ago. She was awesome. Like me in every way. Shut in, quiet, shy. The days we spent playing together turned into weeks we spent talking with each other on the phone and on msn. We eventually confessed feelings with each other, and soon we met up. She was only a two hour drive from me, so it really wasn't an issue. The weekend I spent with her was the happiest of my life. We played vidya, we went to the beach, we watched movies. We even played Sonic Unleashed and laughed at how shitty it was. It was perfect. Her family loved me and I loved them. We continued to talk and met up with each other every other weekend. She came up here one week, I went up there the next.

One day, she didn't answer my texts. I didn't think much of it. The next day was the same. Out of curiosity I called her up, no answer. I didn't really begin to worry until I went to a forum that we were both a member of and saw that she didn't sign on in two days. I called her again and she didn't answer so I went to bed.

I was woken up by a call at 9 AM from her mother. She had been raped and killed by a bunch of niggers the previous night. I told her that I'd be up to her house by tonight and hung up the phone. In rage, I broke almost every breakable thing in my room. Screaming and crying all at once, I drove up that night. I got a ticket for speeding but I didn't care. I cried with her family for hours, and slept on the couch that night. Her funeral was the next day. I had to buy nice clothes since I couldn't go back home in time.

After the funeral I said goodbye to her parents and drove home. I cried the entire way.

I eventually got up and walked over to my PS3

I played Sonic Unleashed and thought of her every second.

If there is a heaven and you're reading this, Allissa, I love you.

I love you to fucking death.

I would like a game that has free sword movement like in Wii Sports Resort... but with more realistic graphics and violence. What the fuck is this you can only swing vertically or horizontally shit?? You have the technology, use it!! It would be better if you could move quickly, running around and hacking guys apart with your sword.

I'd also like a game sort of like wii punch out, but you go into a dungeon and beat up monsters. Randomly generated like a good roguelike would be nice. Also would be great if you could use different classes or races and different weapons.

Why aren't any games taking advantage of wii movement controls in a way that's actually fun? Following set motions like in a dance game... not fun. Cutesy shit like sonic the hedgehog playing tennis... FUCK!!

The worst game franchises they keep making games for

Sonic The Hedgehog
Look, we have fond memories of Sega's blue mascot, too. But nowadays, you can't turn around without a mediocre new Sonic title slapping you in the face.
Recent disasters include Sonic and the Black Knight (Metacritic: 54) and Sonic Free Riders for Kinect (Metacritic: 47), though Sega has sworn they're done milking the franchise and will now focus only on high-quality games. That remains to be seen. The publication speed is still there, at least, as three Sonic games (Sonic The Hedgehog 4: Episode II, Mario & Sonic at the London Olympic Games, and the upcoming Sonic and Sega Racing: Transformed) will have hit shelves before 2012 ends. Things are looking up, but we'd prefer a nice, long break for the poor guy.

How did this franchise survive? This was Sega's answer to Mario, yet every game from 1998 to 2008 has been either a complete abomination or just terribly flawed. The games only just got to quality again with Colors and, to a lesser extent due to pandering to shitty nostalgia, Generations
Any other franchise would've died off if it got as many shitty games as Sonic did

Outside of Super Mario and maybe Sonic, are pure 3D platformers dead?

These days it seems like developers have totally reverted to 2D sidescrollers (including Nintendo with NSMB), or else shooter hybrids like Ratchet & Clank.

>The website for the anime based on Crimson and Anastasia Shestakova's fantasy manga Aoi Sekai no Chūshin de opened on Friday and confirmed the voice cast: Nobuhiko Okamoto (Blue Exorcist's Rin), Hiro Shimono, Suzuko Mimori, Izumi Kitta, and Takehito Koyasu.

>The story re-imagines the real-life console wars as a fantasy tale — the Segua Kingdom is locked in an age-old war with the Ninterudo Empire for dominance of the land of Consume. Segua now finds itself on the defensive, but an unlikely hero has risen in the form of Gear, a boy who brags about his breakneck speed. Gear helps turn the tide of the war.

comment:
So guys. I wanted some feedback for an idea I had, and what better place to start than on /v/? So here's what I got: A mass crossover. Stay with me here, I'm serious about this.

It'd include Mario, Sonic, Ratchet and Clank, and Megaman. Now, I know very well that this will NEVER happen, so I'm thinking of making it on my own, kind of in the style of a SSB or Dream Mix Tv World style. 

Chose older characters because they're awesome, and threw Ratchet and Clank in for shits n' giggles. 

Let me know what you guys think. Also, any characters you'd like to see in it/ don't want to see in it? I have a basic plot figured out, too, but I'm open to suggestions on that as well. I'll take any characters, but video-game characters will be the big focus here. 

Btw, pic not related; I just chose randomly out of my reaction folder.

comment:
I think it would be nice to discuss this game for a bit.

Despite feeling a bit shallow in content, I had a lot of fun with this game. The art style is nice and reminds me of Jet Set Radio (as does the gameplay), and the jittery-breakbeat driven music really evokes a sense of energy and speed. However I think the most impressive aspect of the game for me was the level design.

I feel like most open world games really struggle with creating a world that you would want to explore. The two biggest examples I can think of in recent memory are Skyrim and Just Cause 2, which give you huge amounts of sprawling countryside, but little incentive to actually explore them, which becomes pretty tiring when you have to spend a long time traversing through these meaningless areas just to get to the action.

But the way Zineth incorporates the city into the platforming elements of the game made me want to explore and leap across every skyscraper, trying to find new routes to go fast, or little cell phones challenges, or billboards which are scattered across the city. The way the level design was vertically inclined also makes the scenery more dynamic in my opinion, and it really helps to put the progress you've made in the game into perspective (Dark Souls is another game which exhibits this.) It would be very nice to see more games with this sort of level design in the future, it'd be cool to see a Sonic game do something like this.

The classic Sonic games (Sonic 1, 2, and 3) aren't so much about speed as they are about flow. However, moving between one game idea and the next smoothly isn't a quality exclusive to Sonic. Even Mario and Mega Man have the ability to go from the beginning of a level to the end without stopping. At their best, the Sonic games create a strong sense of forward momentum. At their worst, the player is stopped frequently and slowed to a crawl progressing through gameplay ideas that aren't very interesting.

What's worth noting about Sonic's level design isn't the mechanics, how the elements influence gameplay, the interplay (or lack thereof), or the layered counterpoint (which it doesn't have). What works with Sonic's level design is that it's functionally similar to a roller coaster or amusement park ride. The lack of significant variation due to the shallow level and enemy design puts the emphasis on the game "experience" rather than the game "play." Sonic is all about experiencing the "ride" that's composed of the strong forward momentum. The more cool looking obstacles, jumps, loops, secrets, and enemies the designers can put into a level regardless of how well these elements shape the gameplay, the better.The more elements the player can zoom past, the more they feel like they're outracing even if these elements are basic or shallow.

Second was my best friend for a while. His dad worked for Nintendo. His dad's place was full of Nintendo merch and he'd regale us with stories of what it was like at Nintendo, such as someone putting up a poster with a picture of Sonic with a circle-slash over him.

The SNES had more quality games than the Sega genesis that was able to cater to both rpg fans and people who enjoyed platformers as a whole.
The Sega Genesis had amazing games as well: Vectorman, Golden Axe, Phantasy Star IV, Earthworm Jim, Sonic the hedgehog, etc just not as many as the SNES.
Both console are worth owning or emulating and are both very important.

Same goes for the play station 2 and the dreamcast. Both had a very good library but the PS2 just had more quality games than the DC due to its short lifetime.

MLP: Friendship is magic is an okay show. It was created by somebody who created some successful cartoons in the past. The show offers a variety of characters who have some depth and develop through out the series.
However the fanbase is annoying and give the show in general an extremely bad name

Same goes for Sonic the hedgehog. He is a great character who appears in many amazing video games and also has a great comic series that is currently being held up by talented writers and artists. He is a fantastic character who is unfortunately plagued by people who worship him due to their autism or social retardation.

My biggest gripe with Big Picture mode so far is that many games when you launch them go into their own little launcher before the game starts up (see pic), all Bethesda games do this, Sonic Generations, Trine 2 and many others. The problem is that you need to switch back to mouse and keyboard to navigate these little launcher menus, so it's really not that intuitive.

But overall, I just don't see the point in this. Maybe it's my specific use case but I have an HDMI cable going from my PC to my TV, and it's also hooked up to a 23" monitor. So I have to switch the primary display over to the TV, then open up Steam, and at this point I can easily select a game to play with my mouse and keyboard, but instead I have to open up Big Picture mode and then select a game. It just seems to add an unnecessary step to things.

So who's actually using this?

One kingdom, the Ninterudo Empire, has been dominating for years, but its rivals at the Segua Kingdom decide to fight back when one of its townspeople, a blue-haired chap called Gia, starts boasting of his immense speed.

How do I be good at Sonic Generations?

Or I guess I could also ask, how do I be good at Sonic games?

I guess I should point out that I love Sonic 1. I also enjoy Sonic 2 and 3 a fair amount. But the series has always kind of bugged me. The focus is to run fast, but you can run so fast in these games that it really gives you no time to react at all if an enemy or obstacle pops up in your way.

The same is pretty much true for Sonic Generations. It's the first Sonic game i've played since Sonic 3, and while i'm really enjoying it, I always end up seeing all these alternate routes I could take half a second after I would have had to take action to get to it. Like you're running down a street on a slope, and then you see two red rings go above your head. I could have jumped through them had I known they were going to be there.

Am I missing something? Or do you pretty much have to memorize the courses? Are you meant to have to replay them three or four or five times to get them right, or is it possible on the first try?

And if memorizing is the key, (which could make sense for Generations) it doesn't make sense for 1, 2, and 3. You only start those games with three or five lives. Do they really expect you to mistake after mistake on the later levels and have to replay the entire game, while memorizing the entire game? Or do they really expect you to go through it slowly so you can at least know the obstacles you're encountering?

I don't know. I love these games but I suck at them.

FUCKING GAMESTOP.

So Gamestop is apparently doing a sale of some sort at my University. Unsure if it's just with mine or not. The sale is a Buy two Preowned Games get a third for equal or lesser value for free. But anyway I went there yesterday to take advantage of the deal.

The first game was No More Heroes : Heroes Paradise, the second was God of War 3, the third was... I picked out Sonic Unleashed since I loved Rooftop Run in Generations and wanted another Sanic game cheap and they don't have Colours. The fucking problem is that I got Sonic 2006 and I was too retarded to check earlier. Should I keep this game? Is there anything redeeming at all about it? Or should I just pick up another cheap preowned game tomorrow

Sup /v/

I am looking for an awesome single player game to play through. I've exhausted my current selection of newer titles and I am getting nostalgic for a good old fashioned "great game." Preferably something that I can emulate (meaning PS2, Gamecube, or anything previous to that.)

I know there is no way of telling you all the games I have played without writing out a gigantic list, but I am your typical true gamer. I play everything, singleplayer and multiplayer, from fps and action games to rpgs and spreadsheet simulators.

I have been gaming since I got an NES as a young child, and have played basically every "classic" game from almost every system. Super Metroid, Planescape Torment, Warcraft 3, Sonic, Mario, Red Dead Redemption (Revolver was good too), Oddworld, Demons and Dark Souls, Zelda, Rocket Knight Adventures, The Elder Scrolls, Final Fantasy, Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter, Starcraft, Call of Duty before it got shitty and generic, Halos 1-3, Jedi Academy, Fallout (ALL of them), Total War, the list goes on and on and on. I have owned every system from every era since the NES (except dumb shit like Virtual Boy lel).

Im looking for game recommendations. Something awesome and unique and a blast to play alone. Something that will make me go "fuck this is a good game." I have played a shit load of games, but I know there are a TON out there that I haven't gotten to yet.

So please, /v/. Lend me your collective gaming knowledge. Delve deep into your memories and give me some games that are an absolute blast to play. In exchange I will bump this thread with some of my own suggestions, games that I think people may have missed along the way that to me were must-play games.\

tl;dr Obscure games, you probably havent heard of them

Mine... The Houndeye.

There's this essence about them that makes me want to scream "oh shit!" and unload an entire clip inside their face, because they're going to shriek sonic waves that discombobulate and harm you. Maybe it's due to the young age I first played it, and have some sort of traumatic childhood scar due to it.

It's only after revisiting this on Steam that I remember how truly bad this game really is.

>abysmal UI
I absolutely detest games that force you to wait for the cursor or whatever to move between items. Pressing 'down' four times rapidly should move the cursor down four times, not linger on the second item. Obviously, you should hit 'down', then wait for the cursor to move, then hit 'Down' again.
Might sound autismal, but when you're replaying stages through Time Attack it's really frustrating.
>dreadful level layout
I get that the gimmick here is time travel: hit a Past post, go SANIC FAST for a few seconds, then blow up a generator. Trouble is, the level design is either actively hostile to this (the ironically-named Stardust Speedway), or they're lazy enough to just put two springs facing each other a short distance away. In that case, why bother at all?
>special stages
where they were that intent on showcasing the CD console's Mode7 capability that they somehow ended up neglecting everything else. Sonic controls like a fucking lead-lined cruise liner.

And there's faggots out there proclaiming this as being the GOAT Sonic game? Fuck that.

What characters (and stages, bosses, assists etc.) would you include?

What are some of the best console games to play in 3D?

Currently, I own a Wii and a 360. Obviously, the Wii doesn't have the capabilities to run something in 3D.

They games i've tried so far are Arkham City, Sonic Generations, Halo Anniversary, and De Blob 2.

Arkham City looks good, but the game is naturally so dark that the effect isn't that great.

Halo Anniversary looks okay but playing a FPS in 3D isn't as great as you would think. I've had trouble aiming the gun in 3D and the bullets and plasma fly by so quickly that you don't really have time to appreciate the effect. It's a waste of time to turn on the feature, even.

De Blob was obviously made for 3D, but the game itself still looks too simplistic for it to really be impressive.

The best game that i've tried in 3D is honestly Sonic Generations. Playing a level like Rooftop Escape is just magical. Multicolored confetti flying around, diving from the top of a skyscraper into the bowels of a city, and having lasers flying all around is perfection. I've always had a soft spot for the game but always lost interest in it fast. With 3D enabled, I really can't get enough of it.

Have you had any experience with current-gen 3D gaming? Have you played any that you would consider must-haves for anyone with a 3D television?

What do you guys think of boosting mechanics in the recent Sanic games? I think they kinda trivialize Sonic's running speed because it makes it so that you don't really have to try to maintain your momentum. If you want to reach max speed all you've got to do is hit a button and WHOO. I think it's much more satisfying to reach max speed by simply being good enough to keep running while avoiding obstacles and enemies.

SHE'S SO POWERFUL SHE CAN SINGLE-HANDEDLY ASSAULT SPACE PIRATE BASES AND KILL THE LEADER THEN ESCAPE RIGHT BEFORE THE BASE BLOWS UP.

>"Specifically, our source alleged the concept of “zones” may be revamped. In this possible reboot, zones would be massively expanded and become their own worlds, sort of speak. Within the zones, there would be individual levels masked as missions for Sonic to complete. The source most closely compared it to Electronic Arts’s Burnout Paradise, which is open-world and lacks a concrete, linear level structure. All of this would be enclosed in a new engine. Our source compared its next-gen capability to the likes of Unreal Engine 4, currently in development for the next crop of consoles, and Frostbite 2, used with EA’s Battlefield 3."

So I came on /v/ the other day asking you guys who this guy was. I was told, and started watching.
I first watched the sonic the hedgehog episode, then super mario world. And just finished mario64.

Can you guys reccomend a good episode? I also can't seem to find a sub titled one of donkey kong country :<

/v/ what game have you sunk the most amount of time into ever.

Personally it has to be sonic 3 from the sega gen, I put at least half a year of play time into that one game. I rented it from the local rental place so many times that they actually gave me the game to keep.

Hardmode: Idling on tf2 doesn't count, no minecraft.

Fellow /v/irgins,

After listening to VGM The Best volumes 1-4 I decided to put together my own little compilation. A mix up of some of my favourite tunes from some of my favourite games. The only stipulation was that the song had to have been originally created to appear in a video game.

Keep in mind this isnt an official volume 5 and in no way represents /v/'s opinion. Think of this merely as a fan made addendum to the already awesome selection. A gift from me to you. Please enjoy. Or dont. Whatever. Fuck you.

Includes music from
>Shadow of the Beast
>Max Payne
>Resident Evil 2
>Silent Hill
>Medievil
>Theme Hospital
>Batman
>Revenge of Shinobi
>Sonic & Knuckles
>Star Fox
>TimeSplitters 2
>Zombies Ate my Neighbors
>Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines

>Zelda's 25th Anniversary. 
Skyward Sword, Ocarina re-make with limited edition 3DS, Hyrule Symphony Orchestra tour.

>Sonic's 20th Anniversary 
Make a game with levels and music from the series' past, embracing both the classic base of the franchise and the way it works today, and make it actually really, really fun.

>Street Fighter's 25th Anniversary
Release a box set containing every Street Fighter ever made (excluding the shitty first one), three animated movies, one of which is being localized to English for the first time since its release, the SF cartoon series, soundtrack for every game in the series (including the shitty first one), a limited edition Ryu statuette and belt, along with a Fan Art book, and a two Fan Music discs, signifying the anniversary's theme of "I Am Street Fighter." 

>Mega Man's 25th Anniversary
Shitty social iOS game.

SO YOU GUYS HYPED FOR 25 YEARS OF MEGA POWER OR WHAT

[spoiler]First time playing early 90's FPS I did so with cheats. Every game, no exception. All the time, no matter how easy the level was. It wasn't until much much later I started playing without and in the hardest difficulty, after realizing how stupid it was what I was doing.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]This one time while recess I played "Warcraft II" with some other guys from school. It was only during a few minutes, until we realized we were too old to do so. We had buzzword though.[/spoiler]

WHY DO PC GAMERS ACT LIKE SUCH FUCKING PEASANTS?
 
You always bitch about consoles having rehashes and yet you think Black Mesa is GOTY.
 
You get your first taste of Dark Souls and, unlike console gamers, you cry ARTIFICIAL DIFFICULTY.
 
You spend years calling Sonic the Hedgehog a fag game for fag gamers and yet you ALL own a copy of Sonic Generations on Steam.
 
You talk about E.A. being full of Jews and yet you gave up control of your games to Valve because they made a good FPS almost ten years ago...

You've committed an unspeakable crime and the sentence is life imprisonment in a small room with a toilet, sink, bathtub, bed, and a 40 inch HDTV. Also in the room are 6 consoles, a NES, a SNES, a Sega Genesis, an N64, a PS2, and a Xbox 360. The judge has decided that you are allowed ONE game for each of your systems that you get to play for the rest of your life. What do you choose /v/? Keep in mind you have to play these 6 games for the rest of your life, so your choice should be more about replay value than best game.

I'd go

>NES
Darkwing Duck
>SNES
Super Mario All-Stars
>Sega Genesis
Sonic 3 w/Knuckles (technically 2 games but the judge will allow it as long you never play them separately)
>N64
Ocarina of Time

title: Why do you hate modern Sanic /v/, or like him?
comment:
Recently I decided to playthrough classic Sanic games and modern Sanic games so I can pinpoint specifically what bothers me so about Modern Sanic. It is the lack of exploration and lack of elemental items all given up in exchange for speed. Sure now modern Sanic can pretty much emulate the elemental items through homing dash, dashing, and spin dash boosting, but this takes away from the game, it over simplifies it. Why have exploration for gameplay enhancing items if you can emulate the lightning and flame elemental through modern Sanic's moves? Why search for different environments or avoid wet areas if you don't have an element to worry about? Why search for alternate paths so you can use said element against what you think is a long or tough bosss? Now on to another thing, the good ends are handed to the player just for playing the game, there's no quest for it or work behind it, you just have to play the damn thing. When I played modern Sanic I never got a sense of accomplishment, all I got was a thrill ride. Now I'm not saying that classic sanic was flawless, the bonus stages for the good ending are boring and tedious and there were moments when I was going so fast I got stuck in a wall or clipped right through it, there's also Sonic 3's infamous barrel as well! But the lack of polish and thought is visibly seen in modern Sanic, there's no sense of real progression it's just a wild ride. Sure there's sequence breaking but it's not the same as exploring multiple well thought out paths. It's not the same as seeing which path is best for the elemental item you have equipped. It's not the same as actually TRYING to look for the good ending.

Nintendo: 
Cool people who are fun to be around, having a great time. Successful pizza and soda sleepovers, nobody having gay sex or waking up early for church the next day. Hanging out at recess talking about the latest games.

Sega: 
"That Kid" 
The one who was just fucking strange, and had a huge boner for sonic, and was always pushing his tastes on everyone else. He now wears metal t-shirts well into his 20's and still has unpopular opinions.

Sony: 
Everyone else. Casuals, Weaboos, and Gangsta faggots, black or white. They didn't particularly care about games, but waved their dick around that they got a playstation because it was the most expensive. If they DID care about games, they were probably the type who spent hundreds of hours on one JRPG. 

PC: 
Future neckbeards. They knew way too much for their age and played shit like Myst, and probably made an amateur mod for a popular FPS by the time they were 10. They weren't particularly social because they locked themselves inside abusing their parents' phone line by being in chatrooms all the time.

Hi /v/,

I'm looking to get into game design and I'm thinking a lot about outside influences - obviously the early game designers had no previous experience of the field and today you've had people raised on a diet of Mario, Sonic et al. How do you think that people who invest a lot of time on places like /v/ will go about making games? What will their direction be? I'm already resolved to never try Jew tactics, even though it might make me more money in the long run.

Looking forward to your thoughts.

Hey /v/, I recently took place in starting a band That plays songs about video games with a few people i know and i would just like some feedback since you guys seem to be semi intelligent. We play metal and if your not into that that's fine. Also im the guitarist in the back a bit and im aware the fucking volume is low so turn it up. This one is about sonic.

What is the strange attraction with 10 year old autistic outcast kids and shitty sonic fanfic? Seriously, I don't even need to explain what I mean to you. You all know what I'm talking about. 

Why is the Sonic universe so appealing to this stereotype? Is there even a real reason? It never ceases to amaze, the amount of fanfics and RP profiles there are devoted to shitty sonic characters.

Someone explain this shit to me.

Final Fever was a newly designed level that Christian "The Taxman" Whitehead planned to add to his officially licensed 2011 remake of Sonic CD but ended up cancelling. It was intended to be a boss only for players who had collected all the Time Stones (i.e. encountered in the Good Future only). Time was to flow freely, and Robotnik's machine would be almost invincible: the idea was that Sonic could reach warp speed at any opportunity (instead of having to pass a warp post) and must do so in order to "wind back the clock" and thereby damage Robotnik. Some parts are running, whereas in some areas the screen is locked.

God damn, this sounded awesome. I'm kind of mad now.

i saw sonic the hedgehog for the ps3 on sale and remembered all the fun afternoons i had as a kid guiding the little blue nigger through all those colorful terrains, so i thought hey this'll be fun and i bought it. drove home, plonked it in my ps3 and fired it up. hmm this looks kinda okay oh god what the fuck is this gay shit. i was fucking petrified, like froze for a minute or two just staring blankly at the cutscene. whats all this 2deep4me crap? wasn't it supposed to be a blue hedgehog chasing a balding fatso and breaking his shit? "played" it for another 15 minutes and turned it off.

>With the UK launch of the Sega Saturn still unconfirmed, the house of Sonic's looking to stop-gap the generation with the launch of the 32-X add-on for the Mega Drive at Christmas - and according to CVG sources Nintendo's looking to jump in too.

>"The Japanese giant is allegedly planning a 32-bit upgrade cartridge for the Super Nintendo, very much along the lines of the 32-X. Unlike the 32-X it's likely to have just one processor," CVG writes, "but thanks to custom architecture it will be at least as powerful."

>CVG expects the add-on will "really throw the cat among the pigeons with Sega," and erm, it also cites "sources close to Nintendo" revealing that the Ultra 64 - first revealed as a cartridge-based console - will actually use a CD medium. You can't get 'em all right...

title: I wanna go fast
comment:
alright so I've been emulating some sanic 1 and 2 especially and love to play them every so often but once I start getting into sanic 3 with red guy, the levels seem to be less about going fast and more about jumping on SLOW platforms, ramming into walls, and doing "puzzles?" and with the levels longer it feels even slower. It gets worse on sonic cd and the whole past future transitions getting in my way. I like feeling the rush of blazing through levels with the difficulty being subtle and only having a few spots where you have to stop running to pull levers, time jumps on to platforms, or some 3rd thing. one of the only others sanic games I played where I get a good balance of speed and challenge was sonic advanced 2 and once it got to 3 I felt the same thing happen again. 
so /v/ are there any other 2d sanic games you might know that have level design and control like the first 2? quick tip to anyone that feels this way, sonic advanced 2 is pretty fun.

I absolutely love shitty games. Not just some regular lame flash games, it has to be actually released on consoles. Better even if they're from high-profile developer and are supposed to be part of good franchise.
So, what are some games that have:
Stupid plots
Bad controls
Bad camera
Lots of bugs
Horrible voice acting
Bullshit difficulty
...And so on.

Sonic 2006 and Hyperdimension Neptunia were amazing, are there others as horrible as them? Recommendations for any system except 360 are fine.

/v/, I'm not sure what is wrong with me, but for the past year or even two years, I've become disillusioned with video games. I'm just not as enthralled with them as I used to be, games nowadays don't have the same magic as they once did. I'm not sure why this is, either, I can't pinpoint the reason other than maybe I'm just getting older and harder to please. It's really bothering me, because games have always been my favourite hobby, my constant when life was shit, I could always lose myself in video games and pretend I was somewhere else, or be someone else. I remember really being able to lose myself in games. I'm 21 and my first game was Sonic 2. It was great, but I didn't really become obsessed with video games until Crash Bandicoot 2 came out. Oh man, I wasted so much of my childhood on that game. Same with Crash 3, Spyro, CTR, MGS 1, Pandemonium, the original GTA. Then I bought a PS2, and I lost myself in Jak and Daxter, MGS 2, the 3D GTAs, etc. I bought an Xbox and fell in love with Halo, bought all the books and loved it. KotOR was amazing, oh my God. Fable, too. I remember playing ES: Oblivion and back then the graphics just blew me away on my new PC. I must've sunk 500+ hours into Oblivion. The architecture was one of my favourite things about Oblivion, and when it rained. It was so atmospheric. Exploring the wilderness of Cyrodill while it rained at night, it really managed to draw you into the game.

Regarding addons, what should I get?

When it comes to buying games, should I go for copies with boxes intact? I mainly ask because I like the cases on pre-1994 games but don't want games from later on that had cardboard boxes to look different on the shelf.

Finally, good first game to get? Something that hasn't been released in a Sonic Collection?

Fuck this shit. I decided to try out RE2 and REmake and these game are horrible. It's one of those series where you just constantly play at until you're good at it through memorization of maps.

Like in REmake you have no fucking idea where to go so you have to dodge zombies all the time, because if you went out guns blazing you'd be fucked for the tougher monsters.

Then you decide to kill one faggot and when you come back oh surprise, it's an even bigger, faster, stronger faggot zombie.

Then you go to a room and find some useful shit, unless the game is just handing you useless crap 24/7, and of course you don't have inventory space. So you have to run past mr. sonic the hedgehog zombie to get to a chest to store some items, run back, pick up that item, and then look around the entire fucking place for a use for it.

And when you do find a place to use it, you put it in your stash to make room for other shitty ass items.

Fuck this bullshit.

So where's my Sonic Generations DLC /v/? Does Sega seriously think that since they tanked with Casino Nights, that people don't want actual levels?

Generations gave me three bad levels, Speed Highway, Crisis City, Planet Wisp, and to a lesser extent Seaside Hill.

They owe us atleast a few good levels in the form of DLC, Wing Fortress one, Star Light Zone, MOTHER FUCKING SAND OASIS?, That sky level from Sonic Adventure (with the wind stone), etc.

Did I mention how fucking bad Crisis City was? And the overall amount of city levels in general?

With the release of RE6 showing us even AAA devs don't know what the fuck they're doing anymore; If you could fix one game series what would it be?

i.e. devs come to you to direct their game, any changes you want are instantly made, anything you hate is instantly dropped, the entire dev team has to listen to you, you have final say on EVERYTHING, what series do you "fix"?

I choose the Sonic series, just cause I'd rather see the sonic series dead at this point rather than another piece of shit 3D game, pretty sure any "fan" of the originals could direct a better Sonic 4 than what we got, regardless of their experience with developing games.

I've recently been stormed by a wave of nostalgia for the N64 era of games. I've played emulators for years but the keyboard is shit for most games on the N64.

So I'm wondering, should I look into buying a N64 for the classics or buy a 3DS/DS for newer versions of the classics?

Does Sega do remakes of the original 3 Sonic games on any system?

Thanks guys, and since this won't be hard to answer it can be a nostalgia thread too.

Same goes with Sonic Adventure 2. Neither are displayed on the XBLA store yet. I'm really, really excited for Nights and figured I couldn't be the only one, so I thought I'd share in case anyone else was growing impatient. They're both 800 MS points.

You are in denial or you don't seem to have any idea of how story-writing works or some combination of the two.

First of all, is that pairing the characters together "to give them something to do" is fucking retarded, and you just admitted that this would only be a benefit to Amy and not Sonic. 

Besides that, the fact is the games have loose story connections with one another. So yes, while Sonic repieced the world back together with the help of Chip/Light Gaia, Sonic Colours does not pick up right after this game, but acknowledges that the prior game happened.

Yes, Amy has a crush on Sonic, and her motivation is to follow him. BUT that does not mean that one cannot write some sort of story or plot where Amy does things that don't have to do with Sonic. 

Say I write a story about Amy looking for something on a mountain for Sonic, like say some sort of treasure or mountain. She falls in a hole and meets some moles with a problem, and thus decides to help them, and defeats some drill robots that have been caving in the moles.

Yes, she went to the mountain to get something for Sonic, but everything that happened afterward is because of her own decisions, and she is having an adventure on her own that has nothing to do with Sonic. 
Her being Sonic's "official" girlfriend would have no relevance to this story. It doesn't make a difference, it's just getting Amy up on that mountain somehow. The fact is that I can write this at any time, and her being with Sonic doesn't effect this or not. So yes, Amy can have her own adventures, but generally doesn't because she is not that important of a character.

The bottom line is that you're an Amy/Sonic shipper and you just want it reflected in the games and are willing to throw out common sense to get it.

I was under the impression that all of the games for the sega heritage collection were going to be released for PC via steam. I just decided to check the release date for Sonic Adventure 2 and noticed that there is a release date for PSN and XBLA, not one for PC. On the page for Nights into Dreams and Jet Set Radio it lists release dates for all 3. Does anyone have more info on this, or are they not going to release SA2 for PC?

Can someone explain to me how the ASSFAGGOTS genre is considered bad?

This is the only time I have ever seen an entire genre of anything other than music called bad.

And I have never, ever seen an explanation.

Now, I realize DotA killed the custom map scene of W3, but then again the custom map scene of W3 wasn't that great anyway. And it may attract the biggest bunch of autistic retards possible, but so does Sonic, and there are a few good Sonic games.

Is there any other reasons to dislike the entire genre? I can understand disliking HoN for sucking Bum Tickley's cock, disliking LoL for being run by a group of retards that act like EA, and DotA 2 for being made by Valve, or simply disliking the genre because it just isn't fun to you, but calling it objectively terrible seems a bit out there to me.

Is anyone else here on the middle ground when it comes to playing some of the newer Sonic titles? I'm mostly talking about Sonic Unleashed and Sonic Generations, but this can applied to a lot of the games. Are there games that you enjoy playing but the cons simply outweigh the pros?

I like Sonic Unleashed for the daytime levels, amazing soundtrack and lush explorable scenery, but I hate it for the werehog element which claims itself as the plot of the game, when ultimately it shouldn't have ever been.Why didn't they just call it Sonic and Knuckles 2 and replace werehog with Knuckles? If that's a bad idea then I'm sure you guys could've come with something a million times better. When it comes to Sonic Generations I like the way it plays but I feel it overshadowed better Sonic moments for crap nobody wanted to see return(stuff from recent games, mostly Sonic '06)

They need to cut the bullshit and throw out a game that outdoes Sonic Colors and Sonic Generations.

Congratulations; you can choose to have a new installment made for any franchise made by any developer. You can specify details about what you'd like in the game, and we'll assume that the game is made with a high degree of polish. You can also let a developer make a game in a franchise not owned by or unrelated to them (eg Valve makes a Sonic game), so long as the franchise and developer aren't mutually excluded by direct competition (Sony can't make a Mario game, Nintendo can't make Shadow of the Colossus 2, etc),

What the fuck is this shit?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic_hedgehog

>Sonic hedgehog homolog (SHH) is one of three proteins in the mammalian signaling pathway family called hedgehog, the others being desert hedgehog (DHH) and Indian hedgehog (IHH). SHH is the best studied ligand of the hedgehog signaling pathway. It plays a key role in regulating vertebrate organogenesis, such as in the growth of digits on limbs and organization of the brain. Sonic hedgehog is the best established example of a morphogen as defined by Lewis Wolpert's French flag model—a molecule that diffuses to form a concentration gradient and has different effects on the cells of the developing embryo depending on its concentration. SHH remains important in the adult. It controls cell division of adult stem cells and has been implicated in development of some cancers.

Crysis
Sonic generations

Games that don't work:

I know most of mine are exclusives, but that isn't on purpose.

I'm sorry, but I have to ask. Why is your childhood so important that it has to be untainted by anything? Why does everything about the first gen get a free pass simply because it's the original. I know it was the foundation, but that doesn't mean it was pure, that it had no flaws. I'm sorry that I have to say it, but I think it needs to be said.

YOU ARE NOT A LITTLE KID ANYMORE!

I would hope that your tastes have evolved upon reaching a different stage of life, and if they haven't, then you have a developmental disorder, I'm sorry to say. For a long time, I harped on about how Genesis Sonic was the only real one, but I realized something that changed me for the better. Sonic was never that good. I liked it as a kid because I didn't know better, but it really was a simple game that once I became an adult, it became too easy for me. My tastes had changed. I expect more. My point? Nothing is as good later in life than it was when you were a kid. This isn't because the thing changed: you did. Even though there's been a ton of mechanics added, Toonami is still the same game it's always been, and to think otherwise is just being silly. If you want to remain in your little protective bubble, that's your problem, but holding onto to your childhood is doing you no favors. If anything, the world will leave you behind and you will die alone and forgotten.

Hey Faggots,
My name is sonic, and I hate every single one of you. All of you are fat, slow, no-lifes who spend every second of their day playing FPS. You are everything slow in the world. Honestly, have any of you ever gotten any rings? I mean, I guess it’s fun making fun of people because of your own insecurities, but you all take to a whole new level. This is even worse than jerking off to pictures of tails.
Don’t be a stranger. Just hit me with your best shot. I’m pretty much perfect. I was captain of the chaos emeralds, and starter on my racing team. What sports do you play, other than “jack off to gaben”? I also get straight AAA's, and have a banging hot girlfriend (She just blew me; Shit was SO cash). You are all faggots who should just kill yourselves. Thanks for listening.

So, just a question, what's the best, fully working, mostly compatible with all games emulator for the Sega Saturn? I feel like playing Sonic R and NiGHTs into Dreams.
