A better Beta build was used for in-store demos.

360 and PS3 were extremely capable of large game patches, why not distribute that to users after launch?

Because that would mean working on the game some more and I don't think anyone wanted to go near that tire fire for anything more than the hard mode DLC.

Probably because prior to 2013 Microsoft charged developers $40k to patch their games, regardless of how big or small the patch was.

Oh, that too, why pay that much to attempt to fix a broken game.

I don't think I get the tails flying mechanic. I can make tails fly by jumping, pressing up and jumping again, but every time sonic grabs his hands they both just float slowly down.

Only one time did I get tails to actually lift sonic, so I know it's possible, but I don't know what I did to make it work. What am I doing wrong here?

Once you grab onto Tails, you're controlling him and not Sonic, basically.

Edit: Does it raise the ring threshold? Fair enough then. Still didn't need him. :smugbert:

Yeah this is the main reason why Sonic 2's special stages are bullshit if you have Tails with you. The increase is usually only like 10 rings, but some stages bump it up by up to 40 rings.

Does playing as Tails change level layouts like Knuckles?

I assume not, since I'm pretty sure Sonic and Tails had the same level layouts in the original Genesis games, whereas Knuckles had modified levels to accommodate his lower jump height emphasize exploration.

So was that bit with Knuckles recalling the last time someone tried to take the master emerald in LRZ 2 drawn by Tyson Hesse?

I'd say so, since Hesse drew the source.

So what does Denuvo do that's so bad? Does the fact that they are fixing the online-only thing mitigate the issues? I want Sonic Mania but I don't have loving Switch money.

Also I don't remember if it's mentioned on that page but I think Denuvo kicks you out of the game if you have a network blip.

Also the new Sonic game coming out on all the platforms makes me weary of what the actual quality will be. The Switch and PS5 are so far apart in raw computing power it's not even funny, making games that target both systems will require some serious compromise.

Its a good thing then its a PS4 game then. :v:

They have, but they apparently don’t have anything to show this year so they’re abstaining.

I did not know I needed a SimplySimon LP of Sonic 06 in my life but now I need it, I’d love to see your incredibly detailed views on this game, that’d be a fascinating take on it! :allears:

They’ve been making a big funk the past couple months every time Chris Pratt gets announced as the Hollywood voice of a character, so maybe its just vitriol towards the guy spewing under the banner of the “HIRE ACTUAL VOICE ACTORS” crowd. :v:

I've been navigating the jungle of retro marketplaces looking for the perfect copy of Sonic CD. I just don't know what it is about that game but I absolutely love it. The sensation of speed, the characters, the sound of my JVC X-Eyes disc drive slowly dying, the music; its all great.

My question is have any of you played the mobile version of Sonic CD? Is it a Christian Whitehead production?

Yeah its the project that put Christian Whitehead on the map outside of romhacking/fangame circles. Its incredibly polished, includes Tails and both the US and JP soundtracks, along with the good spin dash.

No explicit word, though the livestream segment that played part of Sonic 3 had the Sonic 3 opening with the Sonic & Knuckles versions of Knuckle's theme and the mini-boss music. Like how the prototype Sonic 3 had it.

They play it about 29 minutes in. They also show off a bit of mirror mode after that.

I'm not sure this footage really says anything about which soundtrack is being used, they were playing S3&K which I thought used the S&K versions of Knuckles' theme and the mini-boss music over the S3 ones already?

You can also enable debug mode and just drop a billion coin item boxes if you can't be bothered to farm 1-ups legit.
