Sonic the Hedgehog

[Gym Leader Devil]

Sandopolis Zone. Also the home of those freaky horned ghosts that killed your ass if you let the lights go out. Classic level that killed me many hundreds of times over if you add up my playthroughs, yet still kicked ass.

Also, has there been any word as to whether there will be any DLC levels for Generations...because I would buy them.

Also Tenny, there isn't a "platinum" trophy for the first one, but if you just mean get all the trophies...my problem is doing the last level without getting hit. It's freaking ridiculous. The biggest problem is the chasing bit where he throws all the bubbles. I can never get through that without getting hit.

 

[Lex]

No word on Generations DLC. I'd also buy it. I'd love them to do Ice Cap or some other S3 level, since that didn't get too much love in Generations.

 

[Tennyo]

Did they make the Casino Night pinball available to the general public? Because that's actually kind of awesome.

I was kind of sad there was no special even for those statues, though. I got all the codes but that's no fun just reading them off a blog.

And yes, Force, I do mean get all the trophies.

 

[Tennyo]

Sonic 2 HD canceled.

 

[Tetsujin]

I didn't like the look of the game anyway tbh.

Been following the thread on Sonic Retro. Holy shit, the drama.

 

[Dashell]

Drama, on Sonic Retro?... no wai


But hasn't it been cancelled before and popped back up again?

 

[Tetsujin]

No clue. But the head programmer kinda went awol after everyone went apeshit over him including DRM in a fucking fangame.

 

[Ghost X]

Was that the game which also had a key logger in it?

 

[Dashell]

No clue. But the head programmer kinda went awol after everyone went apeshit over him including DRM in a fucking fangame.

I don't even remember who the programmer was anymore but ... yeah what?...

I don't visit Retro anymore, it used to be the only Sonic site I went to... now I can't stand that place due to them thinking it'd be funny to mock me after I posted a dream I had about my best friend after he had died

Seriously, I understand Retro is a bit more laid back... but since when is that a good idea?

 

[Tetsujin]

I just lurk there tbh, don't feel like registering.

And no, it wasn't actually a keylogger, just some Direct Input bug...or something like that.

 

[Tetsujin]

So I just read on Sonic Retro that people could actually download Episode II from Steam and play it. Yay, leaks.

 

[Tennyo]

It's nice to see that Tails maintains the same AI as from the Genesis games. (gets left behind, dies, pops up ahead of you)

 

[ForceStealer]

I wonder what puts Metal Sonic in the state he's in at the start of Mad Gear Zone, or maybe that's how the game starts. (After Sonic beats him in Sonic CD? Since they're apparently trying to connect the games)

 

[Tetsujin]

Mad Gear is the first act for Metal Sonic.

Also, the boss music in this game is the EGG Station theme. It's like they *want* the music to suck.
(unless of course, this is only a placeholder in the beta which I still have hope for)

 

[ForceStealer]

I actually liked nearly all the music in Sonic 4 except the terrible boss themes....

It ends on that long ass boss with a 14 second looping song. Meanwhile in Sonic 2 he composed a minute long track for Death Egg Zone that you hear for all of two seconds.

 

[Tennyo]

I always wondered about that Death Egg Music in Sonic 2. I once let Sonic sit there just to hear it, and I was like, "Why is this here?"

 

[Ghost X]

Because it's awesome .

Sonic 4 music though? Blurrg. Whoever the person or team of people behind the music is should be ceremoniously thrown off a cliff. Not only don't I like the music, it doesn't remotely sound like classic sonic music.

 

[ForceStealer]

Jun Senoue. He came on for the Sonic Adventure games.

I rather like this one

But even this is a short loop, but I don't know why he couldn't make the songs little longer...

 

[ForceStealer]

So how do you do the level select code on the PSN version of Sonic 1? It doesn't take you to the proper title screen it has it's own stupid one. Can you?

 

[Tetsujin]

Nope.

 

[Tennyo]

Can't do it on Sonic 2, either.

I was very highly disappointed when I discovered this.

 

[Tennyo]

I like the rating "comic mischief", its about as harmless as the "supernatural themes" rating. Who watches this and sees the "comic mischief" rating and goes "I'm not letting my children play that!" Why is it even mentioned in a thing rated E? =p.
