That "Senator Armstrong" idea would be a good basis for a Super Eggman if for some reason they ever do it

Cause Mike Pollack doing Eggman version of Armstrong’s speech would be hilarious.

[up][up]They have, in movie form.

[down]I'm just saying that he's had a super form. Not that he's gone full Armstrong.

I misread "Sage" on the bottom of the last page as "Sega", and thought it would've been even cuter if the corporate side actually suggested that idea.
As for the post linked, the panels of the Faceship vomiting the Metal Virus over towns and cities lives rent free in my head. Absolutely a great choice.

[up] ? I saw Sonic 2 and never saw Eggman’s body grow armor in response to being attacked or develop super strength thanks to nano machines…..or worst of all, being suddenly jacked without hitting the gym.

Let me post this video of the "Standing Here, I Realize" meme with Team Sonic vs. Eggman really quickly, as that video basically has a "Senator Armstrong" version of Eggman in it.

The movie is the third time Robotnik has had a super form. The first was Aosth and the second was Sonic the Comic.

The god Robotnik from Sonic the Comic is the most powerful version with the ability to warp reality, time, space, give people diseases, turn them to stone, resurrect dead characters, he is omnipotent, he can take and give back memories and powers, fire lasers.

That being said I would like to think that Supreme High Robotnik and Super Robotnik could do the same feats.

Plot.

Hust kidding, I don't remember.

Sonic: H-how? How do you get so strong?!

Robotnik: For every Badnick the three of you destroyed.

Robotnik: I do one push-up.

Sonic: MY GOODNESS!

Knuckles: OH NO.

On the topic of Armstrong, if there was a villain with his outlook, who would he be a stronger foil or Shadow Archetype too? Sonic (approach to absolute freedom) or Shadow (The Unfettered for a noble cause vs a purely selfish cause)?

On a side note, A Metal Gear Rising engine would actually work pretty well for a Knuckles or Shadow spinoff.

[up][up][up][up]Sonic used the one constant in The Multiverse, it's the fact that Robotniks have a big fat ego!

Sonic said that the only way the situation could be worse was if Knuckles could see him, so Robotnik teleported him to the Floating Island. Knuckles was loyal to Robotnik till Sonic said Robotnik was afraid that he couldn't beat Sonic & Knuckles. So Robotnik turned Knuckles back to normal and gave Sonic a minute to catch Knuckles up on what is happening.

Sonic used the minute to set up the device that Robotnik used to absorb the Emeralds power in the first place but Robotnik destroyed it, however Sonic had used it as a decoy to keep Robotnik attention on him. While Knuckles got the Grey Chaos Emerald which can control the other Emeralds and their powers, Knuckles used it to absorb all the Emerald powers from Robotnik which cause Robotnik to shrink and shrink till he disappeared.

Is anyone else worried about the $60 price tag of Superstars or is it just me?

I wouldn't say "worried", but I do think it better be indicative of a larger scope in some form than any previous 2D Sonic game.

It's definitely interesting. 2D Sonic games are typically cheaper because they're typically... well... short. Most 2D Sonic games can be completed in an hour or two, if not less, and only have very simple multiplayer options, so nowadays they're priced accordingly.

But there is potential for a bigger game there, they've just never been too interested in making one. Maybe it's just because of all the other similar bells and whistles Superstars already has, but I could see a Sonic game of this type being similar in scope to something like Kirby: Return to Dreamland no problem.

I'd be down for a 2D game that's relatively long and full of stages and ideas like a 2D Kirby game, at least.

Or maybe it's $60 because they know everyone will purchase it regardless of the price.

They may mumble and grumble but their wallets will tell a different story.

I've seen some Sonic fans complain about an upcoming Sonic game, but then they are like the first ones to buy the games, despite their complaining.

Buying games with a minimalist HUD is a problem.

Infinite dressed as a Warlock, and Mummy Knuckles are coming to Sonic Speed Battle, as the leaks foretold.

So Surge is coming soon for her game debut.

Edit: I'm not going to risk getting in trouble, so I edited the comment.
