Tails!
IDW is trash
Frontiers Sucks on all platforms Switch 2 version however is unacceptably bad
>Literally created to set up Shadow fucking Slutty Acorn I hate you all
>>572767536The Switch 2 version literally fixed the biggest technical issue with the game. It's the Switch 1 version that's legitimately awful and worse than any other
Boy
>>572767562Please stop saying this
Douge
>>572767680Its resolution and performance are way below what it should be based on the specs of the hardware. And Sega refuses to use anything other than AMD tech for no good reason
>>572767520>>572767682._.
>>572767797RE Engine is fucking magic, Sonic Team couldn't even hope to get close to it
>>572767898Don't look at MH Wilds
Why didn't Penders do the logical thing and have Rouge be Shadow's future wife
>>572767898Biggest problem with RE engine is its internal upscaler is bad and it works poorly with AMD upscallers, but if you have Nvidia hardware you can get results where 540p looks sharper than 1440p
>>572767797The Switch 1 version is worse in all aspects and in all versions except Switch 2 you can't tell where you're going most of the time because half the environment doesn't appear until you get close to it. Definitive Edition is better than the original release, the problem is that it's stuck on Nintendo's latest handheld instead of being a free update on all other platforms
>>572767809Foxes will occasionally engage in momcest. It's real.
You are going to buy the Sonic carabiner right?
>>572767971Some how they’re choosing to target 60fps for Dragons Dogma 2 on Switch so there’s a good chance they finally optimized and removed the bullshit where they render out more than they need to
>>572768091Actually Switch 1 beats Switch 2 on resolution in some areas.It’s 480p and 720p on Switch 1 but on Switch 2 it can actually drop to 360p in handheld and 600p in docked extremely often thanks to it using some aggressive resolution scalingOn Switch 1 it doesn’t
>>572768010Shadowfags find Rouge disgusting and beneath Shadow.
>>572768010Why would that be logical at all you fucking retard
>archie sonic sold the best when it was political and emotional drama with wizards and shit
>>572768440ROUGE IS TOO MUCH OF A WHORE FOR YOUSO SALLY ACORNYEAH THAT MAKES SENSE CUNT
Shadow is a widowHe doesn't need a new lover
With the Star Fox remake out now and a new Star Fox game rumored for next year how would you handle a cross-over with Sonic? I think Dr. Andross & Dr. Eggman would get along nicely for what it's worth as would Slippy & Tails.
Sonurge
>>572768336>Actually Switch 1 beats Switch 2 on resolution in some areas.Great, so you can admire the Switch 1's shitty stretched textures and the barren environments after they removed all the details to get the game to run on Switch 1
>>572768604Sally's royalty and the moment you put a ring on her finger she's yours.
Why do women become sluts like Sally? I thought they couldn't orgasm.
>>572768670He already has one.
https://youtu.be/35lhQsj7FyQ?is=t1wEFbqpeF21XF52Sega Japan uploaded the Switch comparison In Japan it’s renamed to the Super Deluxe Edition rather than definitive edition.It’s out now but Physical versions are delayed until September meaning it not only won’t sell well but also won’t chart at all due to the delayed launch.They did make new art with Sonic using the Joycon 2 Controller. A lot of complaints over seas as well about the visuals being not up to par with Switch 2 titles like RE9, DK, or Cyberpunk
Filter > Image MD5
ScribblesDuofagHyoumaruChauvelzTrinofFlamesColonoAll of you will be held accountable for Penders's current actions
>>572767520He's beautiful
>>572769014>In Japan it’s renamed to the Super Deluxe Edition rather than definitive edition.Much smarter idea than the retards at SoA.>It’s out now but Physical versions are delayed until September meaning it not only won’t sell well but also won’t chart at all due to the delayed launch.Probably not going to sell much of anything until then since IIRC most Japanese players prefer to grab physical copies of their games and digital sales have traditionally been very weak.
>>572768671The Fox McCloud design on the right is so much better. The Dr. Andross/DR. Eggman and Slippy/Tails team-ups sound like a good idea too. The story for a crossover movie would have to be space-based and would need to have the cinematic beauty of the opening cutscene of Unleashed and a plot about fighting killer aliens
You will never be Japanese
>>572769176In Japan physical games still make up over 60-70% of all salesSkipping a retail release is a bad idea unless you’re intentionally trying to hide sales numbers.
^-^
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kqSQ3D8wB6EIn the anniversary stream Gamescage claimed this was a new feature excluive to Definitive Edition, but it's actually from the Xbox Series versionAnyway Definitive Edition is still the best version, they fixed the draw distance which is something that affects gameplay. They should make this a free update on PC>>572769072Yeah! <3
I've been hoping to hear the satamfag POV on what Penders is doing but we rarely have actual Satam characterization fags here
>>572769291I think that % is lower than it was when I used to follow sales tracking regularly, but still expectedly more than half. I don't think they're trying to hide sales numbers because there's no change in the reporting in any case. Digital won't be on the chart and if it didn't sell enough they wouldn't talk about it while if it did they'd mention digital numbers to bump the number of copies pushed in their report.
>>572769364>They should make this a free update on PCAgree but Sega is stupid so they won't
>>572769534Unfortunately, yeah
>>572769364>They should make this a free update on PFREE?I don't fucking think so.Pay the $20 upgrade fee.
>>572768482>>572768440The "Rouge is too much of a slut" argument doesn't work when Penders went with Sally Acorn
>>572769273Neither will Sonic
:D
Boy!
>>572769724Rouge seems like someone who'd never marry or cheat if she did.
>>572769484Percents are split by consoleSwitch 1 was close to 80% physical last reportSwitch 2 is 70% physicalPS5 is 40% physical And PS4 was 15% physical last reportXbox is assumed to be less than 5% physical for obvious reasonsPS4 is higher on digital now due to games not being sold actively for it anymore in retail in a lot of cases and PS5 being primarily a digital only platform helps push digital up. But since PS4, 5, and Xbox barely make up any market share in Japan Nintendo’s high physical ration is able to skew the market.
Whisper & Ratchet
http://sost.emulationzone.org/oldsosth/oldsosth/theories/sosth_theories.htmlWhy did Sonic fans in the 90s talk about game prototypes like we talked about creepypastas lol, everything here is "creepy" and "disturbing" but it's all just "um maybe they put Hidden Palace in &k cus they didn't put it in 2?"I guess I can kind of see it since it's unknown and mysterious, but the only one I could see being realistically portrayed a "shocking" is Genocide City. Still cool to read these old sites though
>>572769534
>>572770683This is terrible :c
It's soul crushing to see what the internet has become. I can't find any enjoyment on it anymore.
>>572770683Sonic would not do this
>>572770485unf look at her hips the way they pan out shadow obliterated that chipmunkussy
>>572770616i've only played the first game, why are his eyes so small now....
>>572770820I enjoy /sthg/
>>572771018Me too c:
>>572770668These comments were uploaded through dial-up internet and the people who made them are in their 40s now. Unreal. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsNaR6FRuO0I have a massive collection of Sonic websites from the 2000s, most of which have been taken offline and can only be accessed through the Wayback Machine. It's sad to think these people are no longer in the fandom and have moved on despite all the great memories they made for other fans
>>572771210Yay! The Internet is amazing>>572771262I think the more dedicated fans are still connected among themselves, they just either don't care about the newer games or don't interact with younger fans. From what I saw on Twitter I think the original developers of SRB2 are still friends for example. And of course the Mania developers are still around, but we all know that already
"it was just a political marriage" i guess the creator disagrees
>>572771715The actual OG sonic fandom has mostly retreated into their own walled gardens given that the larger internet has become a hellscape rivaled by that of only the worst slums on earthIt sucks because there's no way 'in' to friend groups anymore. So if you were just a lurker and made the mistake of never connecting with anyone, you're now isolated.
>>572771715>>572771262I remember seeing a forum called "Sonic Vegemite" from the 2000s. The last posts were from a couple years ago, where some users talk about their lives and stuff. Pretty bittersweet. Wasn't able to find the site again though
>>572771904We connecting now!>>572771984I've seen a couple forums like that as well. It's sad, but at least I like that some relationships survive
https://www.sonic-veg.com/This fits the name, but I don't see a forum>>572771262>I have a massive collection of Sonic websites from the 2000s, most of which have been taken offline and can only be accessed through the Wayback Machine.Wait, are you saying you have some, or full versions of some, that aren't archived on the Wayback Machine?
>>572772458>sonic shippers still haven't learned their lessonhow many ships do official writers have to kill before it gets into your skulls
>>572772530Yeah it's this one https://info.sonicretro.org/Sonic_VegemiteIdk what happened to it, it used to have that "generic forum template" that places like the Lost Media Wiki forums used
>>572770767>>572770830
>>572772784Old style cool
>>572767067rightest ship to use

I remember seeing an old school site called SatAM Fans Unite or something related to SatAM S3 project.

>>572773580it was common in older societies to get their kids married young around early-mid teens. not different from dating in western societies but without the infidelity and more formal
Ian has been writing Silver as auraver recently and I hate it. Reeks of fan pandering. I can't wait to get Evan back.
https://info.sonicretro.org/Sonic_the_Hedgehog_Area_51I wish the archive links at the bottom of this page actually worked, this forum is where the "Original Story" document was first posted and it had information on how it was obtained>>572773446:D
>>572773580Don't boys usually start puberty around age of 13-14?
>>572773517Didn’t one of them throw their mom?
>>572773974I really want to know more about this document because it sounds legit but it's been so long and there's no way to verify it's authenticity
>>572774160Yeah, same. I think it's real because so many things line up, but everything else about it is a huge mystery

>>572775493These guys>>572775530>>572775641
The franchise was in a much better state in the 2000s - just fans making fan art, fan fictions, AMVs, and theories about the games and characters, no cringe coming from Sega of America, no wokeness, and the games weren't safe edgy and kiddy-fied
>>572775641Boysboysboysboys>>572775767Zeed02 makes porn?
>>572775242Evan fears this creature
>>572775937Wait what is the tiny one lol
>>572775856Are you completely retarded? The games were shit in the 2000s with the only exception of SA2. Frontiers, Crossworlds, Super Stars, Team Sonic Racing, and Shadow Generations have literally all been good games. Holy fuck I hate 2000sfags. You don't care about gameplay just charactarizations
>>572775767Tailsfags do be making the best sonic gay porn
>>572776226Adding human musculature to blobians doesn't work. They're supposed to have noodle limbs
>>572776097I'm wondering too>>572775856Nah the community is cool, just ignore SoA trash and the drama>>572776121>The games were shit in the 2000s with the only exception of SA2>You don't care about gameplayShut up lol. I enjoy playing the games
Now i just need Wave in the next wave
>>572775856>trust people regardless of their race>be nice to everyone>rich people should pay taxes to support the nation>everyone should have healthcare"wokeness" is just a high trust society.
>>572776362True. That pic is still nice though...
I only like gay when it's cute
She could fuck Shadow if she tried

>>572777647Dumb AI put the lyrics on the back of the screen. Dumb anon posted it.
in the DC crossover Sonic and Superman are leading the final charge. I forgot that apparently Superman is faster than the flash. It's just like how Sonic also has super strength comparable to Knuckles
shadally is causing a nuclear melty on /co/ great job penders
Cute clothes
are there any other sega franchises you guys like?
remember that time I asked if you were a tailsfujo? Oh my where has the time gone?
>>572778148And you thing we give a shingle shit what /co/ thinks?
>>572778148And Duofag isn't even celebrating. He doesn't care about /sthg/ anymore. he only cares about his Twitter inside jokes. This is why he will never improve and will continue to generate the same ships every time>>572778281I've enjoyed some other SEGA games, but none as much as Sonic
>>572778519Cry about it Sonamybestie
>>572778281Im more of a capcom fan but i like super monkey ball and samba de amigo, and i guess by corporate merge i like SMT, devil survivor and persona 3
:)
>>572778441cuz fuck /co/mblr its funny
>>572776597And Canon
Are the tailsfujos invading the thread again because they had a melty on /co/?
>>572778987not really, all they care about is ADC ring now. everything else just gets ignored.
tails with moe syndrome, reminds me of that one off model anime frame
>>572779421What is ADC?
>>572768492Correlation=/=causation
>>572779735ナイス !, krack would love this
>>572779026Yeah!>>572779282Anon... We're all men and we're in this general all the time
>>572768671Fuck off, KrystalYiffer
>>572778281I like Shenmue and Yakuza for the story, because I suck at the gameplay. Shinobi is cool, but I don't like the new game. Altered Beast was fun, but in the arcade, also a very hard game to play. I liked Golden Axe, too. Alex Kidd was fun too, my favorite is the Anmitsu Princess, also, I will mention Psycho Fox since it's from the same time.
>>572779828I posted it

>>572780318That’s sad.
>>572780714Is Shadamy's entire existence just a way to keep Amy away from Sonic so that other girls can have him
>>572780714Twitter inside joke, only your off site Discord friends that you invite here would get it
>>572780207I'm not posting a dick pick publicly, sorry>>572780317Yeah but she's not here now
>>572781194Better art than quarkBetter art than the whiteboardactually understands sonic's character as a guy who needs a girl who can keep up with him unlike sonamybesties who keep attacking archie even though that's a different canon
>>572780816What's so sad about liking cute things?
>>572781593Nothing :)
What is your dream Sonic game?
Has there been any updates on the issues regarding Crush 40? Let's just say I'm not feeling Nate is a worthy successor/replacement
>>572782026Sonic rape adventure 2
>>572782026when i was a kid i wanted another sonic heroes type game but with sonic, silver and shadow
>>572782026Sonic adventure 2.5
https://litter.catbox.moe/fzrnsf06exzkz1qy.png
>>572782052>Crush 403 out of 4 members actively work at Sonic Team. The other member is doing his own thing to make quick money off of the success of the third Sonic movie. They might collaborate again some time>NateHe's not a successor or replacement, the Sonic series has always had several different vocalists
>>572781524You understand Sonurge
>>572780905Yes
>>572782398Hot..
>>572780905I think it's neat for the edgy 2000s aesthetic, goth Amy is kino.
FIND THE COMPUTER ROOM
>>572772556I mean, Sonamy got shot down by its writers, producers, directors, bios and interviews, over and over again.And it's Amy still one of the only ships for Sonic that are actually baked in the story and characterization, Blaze just happens to be another one.
How do you guys feel Sega will fair in the second American industry crash
>>572784769If it's like the first Crash, Japanese companies like Sega will thrive.
>>572784873Sega needs a presence in Japan first honestly
>>572777940Superman is not faster than Flash, Flash is officially faster than Superman.
>>572784971I was gonna say that sounded like bullshit but I haven't read DC in so long that I wasn't sure if they changed their mind or not.
>>572784873Sega is siding with Sony over Nintendo recently, and Sony is one that is in the forefront of the crash.
>>572785212Sega’s been pushing Xbox in Japan too for no good reason
>>572785196There's like an official speed chart and everything. Both Barry & Wally are faster than Superman.
>>572784901Isn't Sega more so known as an arcade studio in Japan?>>572785212Sony is an "American" company, and Xbox was always a quasi-continuation of the Sega's console legacy.
>>572785321Since when was Wonder Woman so fucking fast?
Sonic canonically has a Switch 2
>>572785556Not really, the Sega arcade is gone.They’re kinda viewed the same way people view like Ubisoft in the west.Yeah they exist but only kinda
>>572786061Of course that’s where he plays zelda games
Top is visual modeBottom is performance mode on switch 2Can hedgehog engine do anything well?
>>572782261I don't get it
i'm assuming the sonic people having an anal devastation moment on /co/ are people who normally come to this general which is why the activity is slow today
