There was a splash screen immediately after the trailer ended in the 25th anniversary stream that showed Modern, Classic, and Boom Sonic standing next to each other and a 25th anniversary logo. It appears to have been excised from the standalone trailer. I assumed it was part of it.

I think they were using that picture all night, like as the logo of the night's party.

I wouldn't be surprised if that's what's happening though. It was like JOIN THE RESISTANCE and there's no way the resistance is only two people. Though of course then it's only 3 so I dunno who else would be in this "resistance"

Maybe each version of the game gets its own resistance member, Mario on NX, uhhh Kratos on PS4?? Some poo poo on Xbox idk, Tracer on PC

Don't forget Danica Patrick!

I'm pretty sure Japanese developers don't give a poo poo what Americans want because they hate everyone that isn't Japanese.

Square did a bunch of focus testing for FF13-2 and all they learned is that Americans love QTEs.

So, kind of an odd question: can anyone tell me exactly what was wrong with Lost World? I've never played it, but looking at videos of it, it actually seems to have a lot of neat ideas. The parkour stuff looks pretty cool and is an interesting use of Sonic's speed (using spindash to climb a sheer wall, for example). It looks like when you homing attack you have the option to hit multiple enemies or kick one enemy in a given direction, which seems like it could have a lot of neat implications. Was it just the level design? The controls? The story? Whatever it was, unlike 06 and Boom, it's really not obvious just from watching videos of the game.

It is a lot of neat ideas, but they are all done poorly. Many of those ideas are also never explained so many players probably never realize the multihit homing attacks work and wonder why a boss dies in two hits or don't use the kick because why does Sonic have a kick? And even if you know they're there, they aren't very satisfying to use. It's a bizarre game that constantly feels like you're playing it wrong.

It has just dawned on me that I do not Sonic X's main theme, Gotta Go Fast, added to my running playlist. I have failed myself, all my Sonic friends and brought great shame to this thread.

There's no shame in admitting that Sonic has more great songs than a single run could handle.

I like the idea that Sonkc just exists. His powers don't have an origin story, he's just fast because he's just that way. He doesn't have a traumatic backstory driving him, that's just how he is. He's basically a free roaming wind deity/force of nature/idiot god and that's cool and he wouldn't care if it wasn't cool cause Aonic is merely wholly himself and comfortable with who he is.

Lore is lame.

There's no benefit to doing it now over doing it the day before release when we'll probably have heard how it is.

But, yes, do it, give Sega money.

I'm sorry, but the only way Forces can be good is if Infinite is explicitly Eggman's OC, and during the final battle Sonic says "Heh, how can you call yourself Infinite when there's only one of you?' while all of the OC's from everybody's game bum-rush the final boss and Fist Bump is blaring. It's the only way.

I think it can also be good by being fun.
