First for Silver a cute! A cute!!
Anthony Mitchell
Y'all niggas better stop messing up threads.
Hasn't there been a general that was forced to start from 0 a couple of times?
Gavin Campbell
*glomps*
Andrew Edwards
Posting boys in dresses.
Dominic Gomez
*leans*
Jonathan Collins
Is this TAS or legit? either way it looks way more impressive than anything you could do in a Boost game.
Jaxson Butler

Jacob Torres
kek
Julian Rivera
Added to another reason we need Adventure formula back. I'll send the list to the SA3 Facebook page.
Levi Sanchez
it's tas. even half an A press levels of super autism couldn't do that
Jordan Sanders
defo tool assisted. Pretty cool though
Brandon Nelson
ECHIDONA
Jose Brown

Now neither have to be virgins
Aiden Fisher
Why are we an active general if Sonic was never good?
Zachary Parker
Squeaky wheels always gets the grease.
Nathan Allen
Even if they went back to the adventure formula there's no guarantee it would be any good. Just look at the classic sonic gameplay.
Xavier Brown
Hope is wasted on the hopeless.
Seriously though I really hope the next one is different from any previous game in addition to being really good.
It's time for a new era of gameplay.
Juan Green
it's fun to have shit taste
Jace Foster
>has jedi powers >trained Zavok himself >has decades of experience >Sonic just defeats him as easily as any other Deadly Six Can we just agree that Sonic is an overpowered Gary Stu at this point?
Camden Collins
He gets stronger every second.
Noah White
If SEGA ever brings back the Adventure formula (which at this point I hope it happens, so we can go a year without people demanding it to come back) they need to bring back people who's worked on the Adventure games as level designers & directors, etc.
Considering that Sonic has gotten his ass kicked numerous times in the past & has needed his friends to help him before, no.
Brandon Lee
carryu
Connor Green
Can we have a good Sonic RPG already?
Anthony Richardson
>New era of gameplay As much as I want this, do you truly think it's a good idea to split the fanbase into four groups? New gameplay styles are partially the reason we're in the rut we are now.
Brody Walker
It would be terrible for sure and it'd have classic for some reason.
Nope
Leo Gonzalez
Maybe we should just make an rpg, with all the dating sim/social links, non-standard turn based combat and cat falling on a piano songs as we want.
Old man jelly bean was at death's door.
Levi Gray
>Chao Garden mobile What's so hard about this?
Thomas Jenkins
I'd be happy with a Bump & Sage date sim, complete with fully animated naughty scenes 'n shit.
Get to it, Sega, you lazy jap hacks.
Ayden Walker
>No. 1111111111 This better be inspect element
Luke Butler
Inspector Gadget?
Bentley Perry
It most likely is
Hudson Sanders
Sonic isn't popular enough to allow for side-games that don't feature Mario.
Aaron Price
>Sonic thread
Cameron Lewis
>they need to bring back people who's worked on the Adventure games as level designers & directors, etc or you know, get people who actually understand good level design instead of hacks training inexperienced people. Odyssey was made by a young team, it's not like Miyamoto was in 100% control. Sonic CAN be good, it just needs talent and a director with a solid vision. I know, easier said then done but you're SEGA's mascot ffs, it's like you're not even trying.
Asher Rivera
Fuck yeah I do, I actually like that Sonic changes every now and again. I'm not a purist of any style.
Brody Ross
Only if there's a secret "score both plus Bait the Betta :^)" ending
Oliver Adams
SEGA should just hire fans to make them on the cheap.
Logan Ward
*BEEP* *BEEP* Best ship coming through.
Aaron Perez
>Sonic isn't popular enough ???
Luis Foster
Stupid question, but what game is this from? It looks SA2 but I don't remember there being an sports mode in it.
Kayden Roberts
They already tried that with Boom and failed.
Jason Moore
Only one guy at SEGA had the source code, & he left.
I said it before & I'll say it again, the best idea of a gameplay style is something that mixes the best of Adventure & Boost together.
That begs the question tho: Who do they bring on board?
Camden Richardson
SEGA Football Mistake for XBox/GameCube/PlayStation2
Landon Murphy
Boom was always going to fail.
Sonic has had many failure, success isn't guaranteed. Sonic Forces and Sonic 06 proves that even going back to proven styles will not promise success.
Elijah Bailey
Sonic World did a decent Chao Garden. If essentially teenagers can code a Chao Garden in their free time, I am sure Sonic Team can hire someone.
Or you can have GHP user lead the Sonic World team in making a new Adventure game.
Benjamin Jones
...
Camden Brown
You're not wrong about the segmenting of fanbase and stuff but Boom failed for reasons outside its control, it was basically sabotaged. I can imagine it becoming the 4th group in the argument of what game play style is better had it done really well though.
I wonder what it would have been like if Boom was just a Boost game but with the Boom cast and stuff.
Blake Gonzalez
>Compare it to two of the biggest names in video games >Seee, it isn't popular >it's only search terms anyway Really oodles the noodle
>Only one guy at SEGA had the source code, & he left. Really shouldn't be a problem.
Luis Cooper
Thanks user
Luis Edwards
SoJ wants SEGA to die but can't because legacy and affiliations put them on life support like a kid who tries to off himself but becomes a vegetable instead..
Angel Stewart
Who seriously types "Sonic the Hedgehog" fully? Try just Sonic.
Owen Anderson
love it!
Nathan Kelly
...
Elijah Brown
We get continually fresh content worth talking about in some form, whether it's community work, comics, or artwork. And there's enough worth talking about even ij past Sonic games to generate discussion. /feg/ does little outside of circlejerk over their mobile game.
Evan Perry
is her chestplate bulletproof?
James Murphy
ONLY SONIC ADVENTURE 3 CAN SAVE US!
Bentley Powell
Considering how bland fates and warriors was I can't blame them, but it's a shame it's come to that.
Lincoln Wilson
Fair point. I guess it's just a matter of them not being interested, or only planning on doing it if the Boost formula stops being a winning formula for them. Giving Forces mixed reception compared to Colors & Gens positive, it's likely only a matter of time before they go back to it.
Andrew Moore
Need a strong material to hold those tats up
Carter Collins
>Just try Sonic The restaurant?
Daniel Perry
We need more fast.
Anthony Reyes
>Only one guy at SEGA had the source code, & he left. still no known SOURCE to this
Easton Reyes
>IT'S A BRAND NEW DAY
Angel Mitchell
What does this mean?
Alexander White

Wyatt Turner

Michael Cook

Tyler Brooks
No. Sonic shouldn't have spinoffs
Nicholas Martin
THIS IS THE ULTIMATE
Josiah Walker
>That begs the question tho: Who do they bring on board? I assume getting a job at Sega isn't as great as it use to be back when they made consoles. During the Dreamcast era they pretty much took all the talent they had and made them heads of various subdivisions in an attempt to bleed as much content as possible. Got an idea? just do it, that's why Dreamcast games are so weird.
Pretty sure Sonic isn't really a top priority because he's no longer a console mascot and Sega really doesn't need him anymore. As a result Sonic Team will have ambitious ideas but time constraints, budget, and inexperience tend to always get in the way. To Sega it doesn't really matter the quality because he's got a fanbase that can sustain itself.
Aiden Foster
sexy.
How'd they get into that situation?
Matthew Ross
Wow, how can Mario ever recover?
Logan Ross
I've been looking for this one for my beep beep folder. Thanks user.
Owen Edwards
cutest Bat
Adam King
So the peaks were Unleashed and Gens?
lmao
William Barnes
...
Thomas Bennett
That first pic implies she's already naked. Does she just walk around naked around Shadow?
Nathaniel Lee
and what's it say?
Tyler Ross
She has her gloves on in the first pic though.
Eli Fisher
sorry i'll stop
Gabriel Ortiz
She's fast
Cooper Moore
Good use of that sweater
Should send this to translation user.
>I assume getting a job at Sega isn't as great as it use to be back when they made consoles Maybe not, but this is still the people who make Yakuza and Phantasy Star. I bet people still want to work for them
Gavin Harris
>The Silvergin vs The Chadow
Angel Morales
maybe Painty the Dog?
William Flores
Poor slowrat
True. Well given that the HE2 has been made, they likely won't have to worry about putting most of the devtime into that next game.
Adam Mitchell
They should
Makes sense, i'd expect similar results again eventually though, internet is only getting used more and more.
Shadow walks naked around her all the time
Samuel Stewart
...
Isaiah Perez
what did you think of infinite
Joseph Turner
Weak and poorly used villain.
Julian Howard
Like I said, Sonic isn't a priority because the fanbase can sustain him no matter what. "Voting with your wallet" can be risky because Sega could just see it as people no longer wanting Sonic games all together. The fanbase is trapped in a situation where they know the games aren't that good but if they don't buy them Sega will just ditch the franchise like every other sega ip that didn't sell.
Jack Hughes
It's rude to bully slow rats like this
Lincoln Wilson
I liked him at first but then he ended up getting shafted hard in the end.
Michael Cooper
a country after our own heart
Aaron Gonzalez
He's WEAK!
In all honesty thought, I liked him enough. The idea of a character who's just an edgy asshole who keeps losing because he's so up his own ass that it keeps costing him. I wouldn't mind him coming back somehow in the future, or making an appearance in the comics.
Carter Harris
I like how Tails mind-raped everyone into thinking he's some weak jackal.
Cooper Williams
This gives me flashbacks of sonic chronicles
Namely, how bad the sound design was
Juan Powell
That dude literally wore a mask because Shadow told him to never show his face again.
A villain who was ETERNALLY punked by Shadow the fucking Hedgehog can never be anything more than a joke to me.
Cooper Gonzalez
I don't know. I'm sure there is at least one guy up top that realizes that if sales go down then maybe they should consider making better gamea
Jeremiah Evans
>all of those commies we really need to make america great again
