Remember if you're tweeting to Aaron, use both @RubyEclipse and @Sonic_Hedgehog.
Be polite but honest.
Jace Johnson
I like Aaron, I really do, but Arin is an utter prick and Webber needs to stop trying to please him
I didn't really like SA1 no
>So I shouldn't expect hell after I finish Advance 2 as Amy? Nice! No, honestly. All three of the Advance games are good, but SA3 really stands out from other Sonic games.
Some of the crazy stuff you can do with team-ups is so fun. Amy+Knuckles? Knuckles can freaking spindash up walls.
William Evans
>Midriffs are gross in general? wow, who doesn't wanna lick that delish belly like this?
Michael Ramirez
>lots of people who hate Sonic are complete dogshit at his easiest games Makes ya think.
Jaxson Watson
fake?
John Johnson
I love mememan, but this Grump shit has always been really dumb.
Ryan Nelson
The Jews are trying to destroy Sonic.
Dylan Parker
I'm sorry Johnny
Luke Harris
>When the memes backfire. Aaron better get ready.
Aiden Bell
>August 15th >Sonic Mania: Woah Radical Chili Dogs Haha Farts - PART 1 - Game Grumps >5 minutes in, Arin runs into a Motobug and gets hit >"See what I mean HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO AVOID THAT WHEN I'M GOING SO FUCKING FAST. IT'S FUCKING POORLY DESIGNED. SONIC GAMES WERE ALWAYS LIKE THIS." >"Arin, what the fuck are you talking about, this game looks awesome! Haha!" >"Whatever dude." Will this happen or will Arin forever shelter Dan from seeing a good Sonic game?
Camden Murphy
Give me a quick rundown on OP's picture. What happened?
Carson Allen
Johnny's actually in there, though.
Jace Young
Fake what?
Adam Campbell
GG should have made a Sonic dating sim instead of a dad dating sim
Lincoln Nelson
Everyone loves him, it'll probably just be us yelling about it and nothing will change.
Kevin Diaz
Dan is an absolute yesman and has been brainwashed by Ego's mad hatred for Sonic. He will laugh and agree with him along with telling another one of his college pothead story.
Nathan Howard
They gave out Sonic Mania instruction booklets at the SDCC Sonic panel. In the special thanks of the credits, Egoraptor is listed.
Bentley Edwards
I'll admit, I'd try it out.
Nicholas Jones
look closer
Thomas Gonzalez
>Going straight and just yelling to Aaron Do you even know how to Penders?
Parker Cruz
for what purpose?
Anthony Gutierrez
Because Aaron is a fanboy.
Liam Gutierrez
Dan has spoken his mind when he genuinely likes something every now and then. He genuinely thought the Perfect Chaos fight in Sonic Adventure was great to the point where he even remembered it way later in an Unleashed playthrough and the dude forgets shit all the time so you know he actually enjoyed it.
Oliver Butler
STOP
Robert Powell
>hate a series >wants to play the new game on release date This is extremely autistic.
Jeremiah Sullivan
I know that's Keith Silverstein and I know he's the VA for Vector. I don't know who the other guy is and what exactly you're trying to point out with that picture.
Landon Baker
Who is Aaron?
Hudson James
Because he wants to shit on it and get views. Hoping it will be the next Sonic 06 like his Jontron days.
Jason Morgan
He shouldn't waste his time shitposting here if he wants to finish his Kingdom Hearts 2 video on time.
Nathan Powell
Reddit and twitter are angry about it too. If we can somehow this noticed, it'd help a lot. Like if someone mildly popular in the Sonic fanbase who has a decent amount of Twitter followers could retweet something from here, I'm sure we would get noticed. We also have the official stream coming up and we can try there too
Nolan Bell
When did he say he wants to play it?
Jaxon Peterson
there /=/ here
Ryder Green
Today. >You better fucking believe we are playing Sonic Forces day 1 on @GameGrumps
Josiah Collins
PR guy for Sonic in the U.S. He runs the Sonic twitter, tumblr, and youtube, as well as helping organize and participating in SoA's Sonic related panels and shit.
Oh Forces. Of course. The one he can make fun of. Not Mania. Fuck this guy so much.
Chase Edwards
Is he responsible for putting a meming e-celeb on the credits of an official Sonic game? What a madman.
Nolan Morales
Why is she so homosexual?
Aaron Harris
Look at the characters on the right
Adam Myers
He also said all sonic games are bad after seemingly being involved in Mania, so yeah he thinks that one's bad too.
Gabriel Bell
He wont even like Mania, but he knows he wont be able to get away with shitting on it for 20 episodes
Forces is more easy to compare to Shadow the Hedgehog, so he is itching ti milk from it.
Nicholas Carter
Doesn't he suck major ass at Sonic anyway? Never seen his videos.
Ryder Nguyen
Watch as Arin backtracks and says he was just kidding and being wacky and that everyone needs to chill out.
Grayson Watson
She hasn't found the right man yet
Jack James
Yeah but Forces is a way easier target because of the direction it seems to be going on and the character creator. He would look like a dumbass for shitting on Mania and he knows it.
Kevin Butler
But Shadow the Hedgehog was a good game
Kevin Torres
He sucks at them along with sometimes playing worse on purpose to make the game look bad (He even plays the shitty ports so the game's performance suffers even more. He's that scummy).
Zachary Davis
I agree, and I think Forces will be good too.
I am just saying that Arin sees it as low-hanging fruit, and he is going to shit on it without even giving it a try. But he is too much of a pussy to insult Mania outside of twitter.
Nathaniel Campbell
Whichever game he chooses to target, it'll most likely be because he sucks ass at the game and is hungry for that "Sonic was never good" attention. Like I can already imagine him wasting color powers and bitching about how it wasn't working or how he Bursts himself into a pitfall and goes full DSP.
William Rogers
I hate him so fucking much.
Noah Brown
I like Aaron and appreciate what he's done and never really card about the game grumps shit, but putting ego and his fucking wife into the special thanks of Mania crosses the line and I'm done with his bullshit. Aaron needs a good slap at this point.
Thomas Parker
Wait, does that say Sonic Boom under Vector's picture?
Jordan Young
"what is networking"
Isaiah Long
That is a bit of overstatement.
Dominic James
yes
Cooper Powell
Not applicable in this scenario because it benefits neither side.
Brandon Sanchez
Yeah cause a fat faggot who whines about video games for the amusement of 14-year-old losers and autistic people sure is gonna open up a lot of doors for Aaron's career, especially if he constantly shits on the game series Aaron is currently employed to help the reputation of.
Brayden Howard
YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE
Dylan Perez
>it's okay to do something bad if it's for your benefit
Charles Diaz
This is where I would post a pic of some female character from Silver's future, but now that I think about it I don't remember there being are any other than her. That's too bad for Gold.
Yes, yes it is. That's kind of how the world works
Zachary Stewart
There is zero benefit to networking with the Game Grumps.
>"b-b-but Hesse is friends with them!" Hesse was also already working with the Archie comics long before. They didn't need to jerk off the Game Grumps just to hire him for animations.
Gabriel Jones
That's fucking pathetic. Is there anyone out there actually skilled at video games that doesn't like Sonic games at all? I haven't found anyone like that yet.
Owen Powell
Sally fags really love discrediting Amy. Geez.
Robert Gutierrez
>no one should have morals
Matthew Green
Sonic games being pretty basic, it's outright impossible. Same goes for Mario
I'm a Sallyfag and I like Amy
John Smith
He's not exactly wrong. Amy was cancer from Heroes–Riders.
Tyler Roberts
I'm very used to the behavior of Sallyfags. This is honestly nothing new.
Connor Cox
Morals are relative desu. Trying to hold some sort of moral authority over others on a Chinese Rowboating Discussion board is pretty sad
Connor Williams
metal should have lived.
Ryan Anderson
No. In the real world, if you act on behalf of a company for someone that belittles you in return, you're kicked out for the loss of credibility you occasioned.
Gavin Morgan
Everything about this situation is cringeworthy -It's cringeworthy Aaron is so desperate to suck the Game Grumps' cocks despite the fact they do nothing but shit on Sonic games (unironically) -It's cringeworthy that Egoraptor is going to play a game from a franchise he literally hates on the day it comes out because he's so desperate to recapture the feeling of Game Grumps Sonic 06 playthrough -It's cringeworthy that I care enough about this to write this post
Joseph Moore
Yeah but that was years ago and people are still criticizing her for it.
Gabriel Gomez
I don't get those people who hate Mario games either. Both him and Sonic are so inoffensive.
Aiden Adams
Don't you think it's a little weird haw SEGA never really expanded on Silver's future in the games? The only thing I can remember is in some site or manual or something mentioning people with Silver's psychic abilities are common. You could make a Silver game with Unleashed level atmosphere/worldbuilding by just telling us more about it.
Brody Flores
But there is only one Sonic.
Gabriel Turner
wew lad. I feel bad for the normal Sallyfags like
Kayden Young
I somehow hate Nintendo for their yearly shitty cashgrabs (gimmick systems, Amiibos, 2DS, pseudo-SNES) and their horrendous fanbase but Mario is a fun franchise, I have especially fond memories of Super Mario World.
Jeremiah Green
did you consider that they might be actual friends with each other
Ryan Brooks
They could've made Silver the Hedgehog if it wasn't for the Shadow-haters.
Camden Ross
Its a setting where Sonic doesn't exist; they will never do anything with it. Which really is too bad.
Henry Gomez
>Anyone can be in the Sonic Mania booklet if they're Aaron's friend, even if they've convinced millions of retarded little kids to never even TRY a Sonic game Okay user
Oliver Collins
>2DS is a cashgrab in what universe
Lucas Williams
put this together just quickly. just wanted to show off a few sad/angry reactions from fans along with the general attitude of the GG fanbase towards the Sonic fanbase. Let me know if I forgot to edit out anyone's name
I have a more autistic version with some sloppy handwritten "thanks Aaron"s on it if anyone wants to guilt trip Aaron on twitter with it.
Ryan Evans
Amy actually gets a lot of hate in the fandom in general. I was surprised to see so much love for her here. Not that I mind since I like Amy.
Leo Stewart
>grump man got special thanks because nepotism ok. sounds plausible. Even if it's true I don't understand or anyone else being butthurt about grumps being grumps.
Luke Davis
And? All Aaron has done for the game is advertise it. He's not a developer; he shouldn't have any say on who gets into the special thanks of the credits in the first place.
Xavier Baker
>which I'm surprised Sonic hasn't done that Why would Sonic get a restraining order on his friend? Just because he doesn't appreciate Amy's advances doesn't mean he hates her.
Isaiah Gutierrez
I see only facts here. Except for Sega allowing Sally to continue to exist to please the fans, if anything they'd probably want her gone. If anyone is going to listen to the fans and let Sally continue as a character it will be IDW putting her in the new comics, and that's only if Sega doesn't demand otherwise.
Kayden Cox
Then that makes it worse because he's literally just putting his friends in the special thanks of a game he had no part in making.
Noah Bell
It's too much. Now you're making it look like you're playing the victim. Ego's tweet and his presence in the manual are all that should be on there.
