Got Sonic Frontiers on Steam and it runs great

But has anyone got their SA 2 shoes code yet?

Are explosions science?

But has anyone got their SA2 shoes code yet?

Looks like I had my Steam and Switch codes since November 25th. (I did the little trick of using different emails so I can have codes for other consoles.)

Now I just need to get the game on Steam. And get myself a Switch. (Yeah, getting Switch stuff without even having a Switch is pretty lame, eh?)

But anyway, looks like we have a first look at the theme for Sonic Channel's monthly art stuff for 2023. Apparently it's duos again (or specifically rock band duos? We'll have a better idea when we see February) and January will feature Shadow...AND INFINITE?!?

There was a poll last month to who Shadow would interact with: between Cream, and the loser of Infinite. Infinite won by 50,1%

And the translation makes sure he still wants Shadow to acknowledge him, yet Shadow thinks nothing of him and calls him ugly.

Even when he wins, he loses.

And last month Gadjet married a Forces Egg Robot. That was weird.

Infinite: "NOTICE ME"

Shadow: "No"

A while ago someone on here suggested they bring Infinite back but just have him go full Chuunibyou and I freaking love the ideas.

As a youtube comment so brilliantly explains:

Infinite is kind of an amazing villain by complete accident. He seems intimidating at first, talking big shit and doing crazy stuff, but at the end of the day he's just a massive pushover and most of his powers are mere illusions. He acts dark and brooding like he has a tragic backstory, but it's actually just him throwing a temper tantrum over losing a single fight. In their efforts to make a badass villain, the writers of Sonic Forces accidentally made a genius deconstruction of the kind of people who try to act badass in real life.

You know who Infinite reminds me of? Kai Lang from Mass Effect 3.

[up][up][up]Sonic as a whole is a very chuuni franchise when you get down to it.

So Infinite being a parody of that sounds hilarious. Sadly, I'm pretty sure Sega intended for him to be taken seriously.

That also reminds me of how people saw Kylo Ren.

I just see him as a loser that wasted everyone's time with that marketing campaign, with no character potential to speak of besides some cheap jokes.

Not even the Arkham Knight was that bad by comparison.

Hell, some Lucasfilm execs actually asked the Wreck-it Ralph people to cut out a joke portraying Kylo Ren as a spoiled brat.

They intended for him to be a tragic figure,

The same way Toyoda tried to make me feel sorry for the lower, by having Amy Say his birth was solitary and lonely?

Yeah, no. I'll share my mockery, the same way I do with Obito.

SIGH.

I just found out that Karen Strassman, Rouge's VA, is a not-great person. note  sad

Right. So I guess a recast should be in order? Who sounds like they'd be great substitutes for Rouge?

This matters in the long run.

Rouge appears so much already, unless you're referring to the Prime VA.

[up][up], [up] Nah, I'm talking about her VA in the games. From Free Riders (or Colors DS?) to right now.

And I know that these guys should absolutely be outed and tossed aside in favor of un-crazy talent, but man, finding out still hurts. sad

Being anti-vaxx isn't enough to get kicked off a project, as we've seen plenty. You basically have to get convinced of a crime for that.

I won't wish for her to be replaced by the Prime actress, because this is a monkey paw thing.

Then I would get ALL the Prime actors replacing the game cast, and I sincerely do not want that.

I'm watching Pariah's review of Unleashed, first part.

He goes into a rant saying that folks who hate the Boost titles going 2D are entitled, telling the creators How they should do things and mocking them, as there have been 3D platformers with 2D elements to them.

I felt a sense of catharsis with that after hearing all the crap folks pull on Colors for having a lot of 2D on it, even if ultimately this is about Unleashed.
