Man screw Zippo, dude has a really good record of not being right at all, and this (apparently not entirely true, since Sega was just planning on it) leak came form Midori, a really trustworthy Sega/Atlus leaker (thsat has only been wrong ONCe, and it was a single release date that was wrong)

Zippo read that leak and started saying it was 100% true and real, and that it was really really happening, then the sonic fanbase(tm) started throwing shit at Midori, causing her to quit leaks alltogether

So thanks, Zippo, for absolutely nothing

there is one thing almost all sonic fans agree on, SA1 and SA2 is are good
Sonic is such a difficult franchise for me to analyze because I'm not sure how I (personally) would have transitioned the series to 3D.

All things considered, the gameplay of Sonic Adventure makes sense: Hub world, levels. Envisioning the game design is difficult because you'd essentially have speed-based forward movement mixed with platforming. Sonic Team hedged their bets by including several different gameplay types, like scavenger hunting and pet simulator, and that added variety for better or for worse.

One stage with many collectables might have brought too many comparisons to Mario or Banjo Kazooie, but I think that'd allow for branching paths, emphasis on speed, and larger stages. Some better control during combat would have been good, but I'm not sure how I'd implement it. It's a real brain exercise.

Sonic Generations made so much sense because it combined the 3D and 2D gameplay really well. It would have been a good direction for the series from the start.

That god awful title screen theme.

I wonder how many people I just pissed off by saying that, lol!

You take that back this instant. Sonic music has become a category all its own. Have you ever rolled around at the speed of sound? Have you ever seen the world spinning upside down? Have you ever been so in love that you can dream on sweet dream?

I did not think so.

How is that even a terrible game? Its one of the greatest alongside Sonic Adventure 2.
you must be fucking joking. it barely has any speed. you have to stop and switch characters to pass areas and the characters are lame AF with gimmicky AF levels and other annoying shit that should not be in a sonic game! go back and play SA2 than play heroes right afterwards it's like fucking night and day :lol:

Correction: In relation to Sonic Adventure 2 not the remake. Fuck that.

If Ken Penders wants so badly to own Sonic the Hedgehog then instead of Sega wanting to own Super Mario Bros. from Nintendo then what if for instance in alternate scenario Ken Penders wants to own Jazz Jackrabbit from Epic Games so in that case in alternate scenario they could own Commander Keen from Id Software.

They made a very good point.

The level design of Sonic Heroes, I think, tries as hard as it can to mimic Sonic 3's vast scope. It just has bad controls and can be a little grindy.

I have a lot of nostalgia for it, but I think it gets a way worse rap than it should. A remake could do that game wonders.

    I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Other games I can have turned up to like 2X and all kinds of enhancements, Motorstorm hmmm nope 1X and no enhancements lol
  • Veho @ Veho:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I will admit that one does seem more interesting than the usual Ambernic ones, and I already liked those.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I dread the price point.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
