Want to take that to Ask The Tropers as well? We did take action with Radar.My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic.

To be honest, I couldn't care less for Getting Crap Past the Radar in general, so if the page has to go, then so be it.

Experience has taught me to investigate anything that glows.

They're really just an excuse to be as immature as possible while going and on about some out of context action that was clearly not what the creator intended. Only one in five examples is even justified.

Lol I feel liked I missed something hilarious. What is this guy? Miru's evil cousin?

[up]That's Davidthe Mouse. He was suspended since he was accusing people who didn't like Unleashed of sucking at the game.

Not to defend the guy but a lot of times people complain about sonic games partly as a result of well, being bad at them.

Still if he was doing it to a level where he had to get banned...

To be fair, Unleashed was a pretty rad game - the story and music is top-notch.

This Mouse guy sounds like a twat though.

[up]I mainly complain about Sonic games for their alternate gameplay styles. I stayed out of that whole debacle, but I did see him get banned.

Basically, people complained that the big problem with Unleashed was the nature of getting S-ranks, which meant that you had to be able to predict exactly where and when a hazard would hit, and he claimed that he could do that first-time in all stages (meaning it was never a problem for him) and everyone else just sucked.

Over and over.

Honestly, it'd be brag-worthy if it was Sonic 2006, though.

Regardless, glad it's reported and over with.

I agree to work on the Radar page, though. Pure deletion? Nah, it definitely has some.(depending the game/movie/show/whatever)

[up]Some, yeah, but things like Cubot saying how cleaning up robot parts is gruesome from a robot's POV isn't one of them. Nor is Amy being held hostage in SA2.

It's one thing to make a spectacle. It's another to make a difference.

How about we take it to the discussion page for Radar.Sonic The Hedgehog and get back to discussing the games again.

Is Unleashed the kind of game that can be played similarly to Rush (besides being in 3D)?

Rush 1 or Rush Adventure? They're actually rather different overall.

And not really. The change in the Homing Attack makes it far harder to play, or atleast play fast. You have to wait for it to lock on.

#15191: Apr 13th 2013 at 1:24:38 PM

[up]But both Rushes are set up such that the Homing Attack isn't something you have to use (save for that one part in Sky Babylon).

You have to in Unleashed. A fair amount. It's closer to how often it's needed in Sonic Adventure 2, really.

Fairly often, but not all the time.

Which version of Unleashed, though?

Thanks for reporting that ban evading underageb&. He's made trouble in other threads as well.

He messaged me; looks like he found out that I called him a twat [lol]

I replied to his 3 word message (which uttered the word "fuck" twice) with "Enjoy the Banhammer, Mr. Needlemouse". Hopefully he'll get the reference.

Don't cause drama. Don't respond. And, most importantly, stop discussing it, since this is dangerously close to (or has crossed the line into for some posts here) gravedancing, which is against the forum rules.

Insert witty and clever quip here. My page, as the database hates my handle.

I actually LOVE the homing attack. It feels as integral to the gameplay to me as the spin dash, or (in the most recent games) the boost.

The Homing Attack is awesome, but I should not want it to become a crutch for gameplay. Keep it simple, effective, but not the all-encompassing move.

Yeah, I agree - though I think it applies to the spin dash, and the boost. Maye there should be one or two times per game where it's wholly essential, but most of the time, it should be encouraged, but not needed.

I'd like it to be mostly used for alternate paths like in Adventure 1. It was fun experimenting and seeing what you could lock onto.
