For the next Sonic game, should they go completely 9th generation? As in no PS 4, Xbox One, or Switch. Only PS 5, Xbox Series X/S, and whatever Nintendo’s next console is.

Even if they wanted to drop support for the PS 4 and Xbox One, it wouldn’t make sense to drop support for the Switch and go all in on the new console before so many people have a chance to get ahold of it.

Gentlemen, I bought Sonic Unleashed and Arkham Origins for my Ps 3. It's the first time I'm ever playing the HD version of Unleashed.

It's fucking hard.

Yep. You really have to learn the Day levels to get good at them (which I've often seen as a complaint of the game design, like that wasn't a thing in the 2-D games, when it certainly was), and the Night levels will beat the crap out of you if you don't level up the Werehog. So as tempting as it may be, don't go putting your experience points into the Hedgehog early on. Get those Werehog gains early.

...And Arkham Origins is buggy but in my opinion, fun. That's a bonus opinion that no one asked for. [lol]

I lost a lot in Holoska.

How appropriate for the festivities. Merry Christmas and happy holidays.

I'm getting reminded of the "Jump, Jump" "Slide, Slide" section of Megaman 8.

I played the Sonic Forces Overclocked mod today. It's a short romp, but it was super fun. More fun than I had with the original Forces, that's for sure.

I can´t play it, but I did enjoy Infinite and Neo Metal relationship.

It made Infinite feel like a character, somehow. The mod cooked with the final boss(es) on an aesthetic level.

The Switch is 9th generation. 8th Gen was PS4, XbOne, and Wii U. The 9th Gen is PS5, XSeX, and Switch. Whatever comes after the Switch will be the first console of the 10th generation.

[up] It is a mod for Sonic forces that turns the game into a fan made sequel - contains eight levels that run for a couple minutes each, new cutscenes, voice acting, and even custom avatar parts

Also Sonic Twitter says Happy Holidays, featuring the Conductor as Santa Claus!

This one art is super charming.

Could I get Overclocked on Steam, and if I did so, would it replace anything in Forces? or is it like a "Portal Reloaded" situation where it's listed as a wholly separate game that just uses the base game's assets.

As for the Christmas image:

  • Rouge has some great outfits.
  • It's fun to see all the comic characters!
    • No Whisper or Belle, though, is a bit of a shame.
    • Or Vector! But Vanilla's right there!!
  • That billboard... Is there a Hatsune Miku parody in the Sonic world?
    • On that note, has there been an "Angry Flickies" parody yet? And since Sega owns 10% of Sanrio, maybe there should be a "Hello Honey" line...
  • I just realized Tangle's tail is covering the entire tree!

I could absolutely see Rough and Tumble trying to steal Christmas.

You need a copy of the Steam/PC version of Sonic Forces, so if you don't have it already, you need to buy it (Steam Sega Winter sale has it down for $10 USD until Jan 4). You'd then need to use Hedgehog Manager to install the mod (download here) and it will replace Sonic Forces' campaign content with Overclocked's stuff.

Gentlemen, ladies, and the technicolor rainbow in between. Happy holidays.

I defeated the Dark Gaia Phoenix. I'm having fun with Unleashed so far. And with Arkham Origins, they weren't kidding about the boss fights being good, Slade was freaking hard.

Decided to get myself the new Sonic cookbook. Its chili dog sauce recipe is downright crazy compared to the Archie recipe. Five different kinds of peppers, brown sugar, ground coffee, and then some, all simmered for 4 hours. It had better be really good if I have to put that many ingredients and that much time and effort into it.

Dang they went hard core. Using Eggman’s lackey’s heads as ornaments on the left tree.

That's not the heads, that's actually Orbot and Cubot. They can transform into their basic shapes.

Also, they aren't ornaments. They're giftwrapped which means, inexplicably, that they're presents.

Maybe now that Eggman has Sage, he doesn't need them anymore.

@ Tobias Drake: There's a difference between having a family and friends. Orbot and Cubot are the latter even though they're all creations of Eggman

KnownUnknown Since: Jan, 2001
#76698: Dec 27th 2023 at 3:18:13 PM

Tbh, it’s almost completely unknown what Orbot and Cubot’s role is going to be in this unprecedented new direction and paradigm Eggman’s going through, or really anything about what that direction is going to look like at all.

It’s clear they want to skew him in an “evil family” direction now that Sage is in the picture, but I get the impression they’re still working out what that means or how or even *if* that’s going to do anything to Eggman’s characterization.

So Sage mostly just gets offhand mentions and cameos and hasn’t had a plot role in anything since her introduction, and they’re thus far just continuing business as usual for Eggman, his robots, and his MO in general. Dream Team is outright back to basics for the Eggster.

I think we’re going to see a shift in how Eggman and his group is written soon, but it’s looks like it’s still being worked on.

Given that when Eggman first mentioned his other most recurring robots to Sage, her first thought was if that made them siblings, I’d like to see family dynamics along that line.
