I want to meet Sonic, shake his hand, and call him slow.

Hudson Harris
Which lackey is best lackey and why is it Snively?
Nolan Clark
Snively is best lackey
Aaron Martin
Do you wear Sonic clothes and merchandise while you're out in public?
Isaac Torres
I am not at all against turning the important human characters into Mobians.
No, I don't mean Eggman, he isn't important.
Joseph Fisher
I sometimes wear this but it's kinda small for my big head
Hunter Taylor
No Sonic, but I wore this while doing errands today
Daniel Howard
No.
Connor Reyes
...
Noah Anderson
indubitably
Nathan Lopez
>mobians
Jackson Hall
Yes.
Jordan Roberts
I'm wearing a Sonic shirt right now, although underneath a button-up.
Adrian Mitchell
>Sonicsworldians
Camden Clark
wtf I like Elise now
Anthony Gray
>Sonic-Worldians
David King
Probably because she looks less like an alien, there.
Nathaniel Nelson
Making Elise an animal would fix a few things but still wouldn't salvage the game. Maria is literally related to eggman. It's fine that she's a human in that context. Also that maria pictured looks way to badass to die like she does.
Jacob Hall
Wow, Elise actually looks kind of cute- >Eggman >Not important And into the trash it goes.
Liam Cruz
Snively can be best lackey Thunderbolt has bigger plans
Jace Lee
Now I see why Eggman covers his eyes. They clearly have GIANT unwieldy blue eyes. It's probably super jarring
Jaxson Jackson
I have a Shadow the Hedgehog T-shirt but it's too small for me now. I only wore it at anime cons anyway.
Have any of Chris?
Juan Evans
Eggman belongs to Eggman
John Jackson
Anyone have that one image where she has a room full of Eggman stuff? An Eggman bed, an Eggman poster, Eggman action figures...girl wants it bad.
Jack Moore
...
Noah Phillips
So why is Thunderbolt such a fangirl for Eggman?
Isaiah Green
I think it could work, given the proper tweaking.
First, you'd have to do away with the kissing and anything that isn't handholding or bridal carry (can't have any of the characters displaying feelings, after all. Who feels things these days?). Then you'd have to emphasize the fact that her just being there already puts her closer to Sonic than Amy ever was during the whole time they've known each other.
Ryan Hernandez
Because Eggman is perfect in every way
Brandon Brooks
because she has good taste
Jaxson Flores
So how would you design the perfect anti-Super Sonic machine /sthg/?
Sebastian Green
lots of blatant weakpoints and a self destruct switch, optional escape pod
Andrew Rodriguez

Joseph Watson
...
Mason Barnes
Add a giant magnet onto it that attracts rings.
Owen Anderson
A machine that would endlessly force feed Sonic chili dogs.
Oliver Gonzalez
We already had it, just needed a containment facility in the middle of the sun.
Brandon Harris
I wish for Boom Sonic to be in Project Sonic 2017
Nathaniel Bell
This is what you're getting
Liam Long
not even boku and deku
Asher Hernandez
A card that says "secret location of the ultimate chili-dog on other side" on both sides.
Evan Hughes
We keep forgetting to actually copy the link to that Green Hill Paradise trailer instead of just the title in the OP.
Michael Carter
I think it might be like that to avoid copies.
Aiden Thomas
Probably more due to how 4chanX deals with YouTube links and how the OP is mostly a copy/paste deal.
Adam Myers
I think it's one of our bakers that keeps doing that. It's been fixed before.
Kayden Bailey
>an alternate reality Maria that is 1. a hedgehog, and 2. kicks more ass than shadow You do not know how down I am for that
Carson Scott
we don't need more hedgehogs
Nolan Brooks
I always liked the silly role-reversal idea where Shadow is killed on the arc and Maria becomes the edgy villain of SA2.
We need more hedgehog GIRLS. Because Amy's starting to form a Harem.
Andrew Reyes
yes I think for a time I considered making a oc called pulse the Panglolin
Grayson Ortiz
>Harem anime with Amy I'd watch it
Jaxson Garcia
I'd rather have Metal, but she's fine too.
I don't expect either to be playable.
Nicholas Gutierrez
If you give me a brief description I'll draw it for you, I have my tablet out anyways
Juan Garcia
das cute
Lincoln Walker
Metal Sonic would be a pretty cool character.
Bentley Ramirez
No. I honestly don't real like her moveset for Advance. The problem being it's too slow. Amy needs to stop to swing her hammer and can only attack once in midair so she has to pinpoint swing. If I was going to make her fit more into classic style I'd >Keep her peelout run, hammer attack, her hammer jump and her hammer drop. >Change her hammer swing so that you can swing it multiple times in one jump. Hold the button so you can swing it more than once, and allow her to preform it after bouncing off of springs. >Allow her to do a horizontal hammer swing using momentum like sonic's spin.Either as a quick swing or constant spinning motion following the momentum of her dash.
Other than that i'd be fine with it, but amy's slow style of gameplay has always been a bit of a turnoff for me. It feels anti-sonic.
Nicholas Barnes
Speaking of living pinecones, what exactly do you think Tails did with this thing?
Jace Fisher
yes Amy is cute
Jack Allen
I forgot this was looped and just zoned out while watching this
Isaiah Sanchez
Have some pseudo-OCs, courtesy of some guy awhile back.
John Ward
Yeah that sounds like a good update to her moves from that game. >allow her to preform it after bouncing off of springs. I don't know why all character can't attack after bouncing off springs, they did once in triple trouble and never again. Sonic Mania should add it back.
Jason Miller
...
Anthony Bennett
Which one is the worst boss of the classic trilogy and why is it this faggot??
Isaiah Russell
>Why take unnecessary risks to possibly marginally improve the quality of the least important aspect of the game? If you're always afraid of moving forward because of the risks in doing so, nothing will EVER get done. Ironically, Sonic's games have the same mentality he does. The past is the past but now it's time to move forward and see what else there is in store for us. >great chance of it backfiring Yeah, like there's a great chance of another Adventure style plot backfiring. I highly doubt that considering how many little gremlins would eat it up in the first place but also because of how long Sonic Team has had to take in thoughts on those games and their mistakes in titles that came after those. >like incredibly deep philosophical arguments Which none of the Sonic games have gone into at all. The most complex thing in Sonic so far has been the time travel shit in 06 and not even adults can figure than one out, followed by Sonic's ideology in Black Knight, followed by Shadow/Gerald's revenge for Maria in SA2 in that order. Kids are not fucking stupid and they will pick up on themes and morals and values and all this other shit and the shit that they don't pick up or they weren't meant to pick up at a young age will dawn on them later in life. And don't even act like anything Sonic related except 06, Heroes, and LW had performances anywhere near the level of bad the Naruto dub had. >having voiced cutscenes are overly ambitious Uh, no. Not at all, m8. It would be overly ambitious if it tried to explore advanced philosophy, morals, or ethics or tried too hard to relate to some controversial topical shit of the time.
It doesn't matter how the hell the public views Sonic, Sonic Team should do their best to make every aspect of their games as good as possible and achieve the vision they have for it and thinking otherwise is basically telling them to quell their vision because people might say mean things again. Sorry.
Do people really have this much trouble with the boss?
Luis Scott
That's not Metropolis Zone.
Joseph Wilson
Endless Possibility is so good
Evan Green
The entirety of Unleashed's aesthetic (both music and graphics) are so good they still haven't been properly matched.
David Collins
Well, it was conceived by Tomoya Ohtani, performed by the lead singer of Bowling For Soup and the Perfect Dark Gaia version was performed by the Tokyo Trans-Philharmonic Orchestra. It's the perfect trifecta.
John Flores
If we're talking specifically bosses, it's not so bad. i've never managed to beat it witout getting it at least once though.
Mason Lewis
Actually I have to add that Jared made the lyrics himself as well.
Juan Turner
It's not that bad once you get the hang of it, but studying the pattern for the first time was a bitch.
youtube.com/watch?v=Nfuv444YAxk About as intense as you can get on the Genesis. The Project Chaos remix was kind of mediocre (although the "Electric Eye" riff at the end is a nice touch). Maybe I'm just desensitized to riff-heavy metal after listening to too much Sun O))).
Levi James
>post your favorite end game boss music There can be only one.
I have never beaten Heroes but I love this soundtrack so much
Ryan Hughes
As a kid, I only ever owned Sonic 2, but I rented 3 and Knuckles (separately) a few times. After this, I never played a newer Sonic game, nor was I really aware of much from them, until my mom spontaneously got me Heroes for GC from a bargain bin somewhere. My mind was blown when I first heard this song start playing.
Joshua Nguyen
Easily one of the worst final boss songs in Sonic.
