I'm surprised the game could render all those Mini-Mephileseseses without chugging into oblivion.

Man. I'm impressed with Sonic '06. I mean, I know they had bad voice acting, but they managed to ruin monotone robot. (Omega was alright in Sonic Heroes. Here, no.)

I have to say I approve of "Batwoman" as a nickname, as this game is about the same quality as Wild World of Batwoman.

Because if the game can choke on a couple hundred low poly apples that are just sitting around, there's no way these things shouldn't have crushed it. There's something I didn't expect to see in this game: Semi competent programming.

There's something I didn't expect to see in this game: Semi competent programming. The clones were probably placeholders but replacing them would have been game-breaking, so they just didn't gently caress with it. It's not competence as much as too lazy to hurt themselves.

Was that seriously the same Maestro from WCW or did someone just eat that guy and gain his title? Also I loved that innovative inverted tree of woe there at the end of the video. Also Sonic '06 is a pretty sweet game.

chiasaur11 posted:Man. This was like the second game made after 4Kids got the license to Sonic X and Sega decided to save money by just using that cast for the games. The first was, funnily enough, SHADOW THE HEDGEHOG. The 4Kids stable actually has some decent voice actors, if you watch some non-4Kids stuff they're in, mainly the dub of the anime Slayers that used the same studio, but I think they're just directed badly in stuff like this. Things like bad takes being left in seems to support this.

I woke up early this morning and actually caught like, 5 minutes of Sonic X which is still on the air for some reason despite having premiered almost 10 years ago now. The voice acting isn't much better there, and I think it's like you said; the direction is just bad. I dunno if it's a translation thing or maybe the interns got assigned to it or what, but there just wasn't much to it. I think we're coming up on the best bad take that was left in soon in Shadow's story.

Like, compare this scene from Slayers featuring Lisa Ortiz, Amy's voice actor to her performance as Amy herself. I mean, Slayers is still a bit cheesy, but it works.

I still don't know exactly what I did to beat it, at least as far as why what I did worked sometimes but not the other times I did the same thing. See mrp this guy knows what i'm talking about. Only neat part about the ending was the swerve. DR. ROBOTNIK!!!!!!!!!!!!

They are one in the same. He's technically not the Maestro anymore because WWE owns that name after buying WCW, so he's officially the Stro, but the announcers in NWA MSW sometimes call him Maestro because they are bad. Sometimes they call him Stro, sometimes he's Stro The Maestro of Wrestling, sometimes he's Maestro The Stro of Wrestling and if I remember that video right he's Maestro the Maestro of Wrestling. He used to be Gorgeous George III because he was the nephew or something of the original, but he sold those rights to WCW (they wanted the name for Macho Man's brother but ended up giving it to his girlfriend.) This has been your Maestro the Stro of Wrestling update.

The previous voice of Eggman died, and Sega liked the guy 4kids was using, so they wanted to get him for the games too (incidentally, he was the only voice not recast when Sega got rid of the 4kids voice actors for Colors, but 4kids would only allow it if Sega took ALL the 4kids VAs from Sonic X.

 I know some people have been looking forward to this, we've got gems. Late in Sonic's story he gets to buy gems that give him super powers. Let's check out the first three, use them to beat some side quests and marvel at the worst side quest in the game. gently caress.

Whilst enjoyable as always, the sound in this video is pretty wonky. You and Hulkamatt are in different headphone sides again and halfway through, Hulkamatt gets really quiet and the game audio starts drowning him out.

Watching the whole video it's only [LOADING SCREEN] in the middle it's a [LOADING SCREEN] problem, everything was fine [LOADING SCREEN] by the end (I think [LOADING SCREEN] I'm getting used to having [LOADING SCREEN] you two talk to each of my [LOADING SCREEN] ears)

I really feel like this game started with a decent development team and they almost got the basic game engine working and built their tools. Then they all died in a plane crash and a bunch of interns finished it off with a one week deadline.

SO I'm just wondering: just how long have we been staring at loading screens in this LP? Pokecapn and co spent a good two loving hours in their LP and it feels like we passed that marker a long time ago.

Well, we're also doing every sidequest, so we're seeing like three times the load screens.

Man, worse than apple barrels? Haha you must be exaggerating, this can't possibly be...   Speaking of laziness, I suspect that the sole reason Elise gets kidnapped so much is that they animated it once, and decided it would be easier to use it as a transition between levels than to come up with anything new. It's more generous than believing they intended her to do nothing but get kidnapped ten times.

She is the 8th Chaos Emerald that lets Sonic and Friends turn into Chaos Shin Gaijin Super Sonic. Not CSGS Sonic and Friends. They all become Sonic, because Sonic Team didn't want to make too many more models. All of these forms share a model with Silver, just recolored.

It's more generous than believing they intended her to do nothing but get kidnapped ten times. No, I think that they really wanted us to care about her. The problem with that is that is requires her to interact with the main cast regularly. Of course they need her to get kidnapped to get the plot moving and to give Sonic a motivation to do stuff. So that results in her getting rescued so she and Sonic can bond and then her getting kidnapped because they can't really think of any other motivation for Sonic to do stuff. As a result, she held the title of the single worst insult to women in video games from 2006 to 2010 where the title was passed on to everything in Metroid: Other M. David D.
