Yeah, that is him. I mostly hate him because of his absurd Bayonetta 2 review where he hated the game because you play as a woman. He writes the most insane clickbait.

Controversial opinion but I like the sonic boom characters. Having them all be the same lanky build with the circle body and giant shoes and hands with different giant heads was boring, swole knuckles looks silly but at least he looks like a real cartoon character now

Really glad they went with the option to keep him silent, it made those cutscenes the best.

Especially whe he meets Amy. Even Classic Sonc is just like oh loving hell.

edit: I would've liked if they went with the Hedgehog Boom concept art instead.

I don't think their designs are any worse than any of the other weird modern sonic designs. The writing on that show is great though.

I really wish we got a Generations 2 with Classic Knuckles and Sonic CD Amy. Preferably with a playable Tails and Knuckles, too. They're fun if the game's 2D and you don't make them hunt emeralds or drive mechs or whatever!

Yeah, I think the original Sonic has the correct proportions for a kid's cartoon character. That elongation is basically Skinny Mario except officially sanctioned by the creators

I love the sonic boom cartoon because basically nothing adventurous happens, it's just the sonic characters hanging out doing whatever

Original Sonic was based on Mickey Mouse. It's a real shame they abandoned that aesthetic in favor of nightmare zone Sonic.

just that jontron abruptly left and considering he follows infowars and alex "obama is a reptilian warlock" jones now, it was probably because of him becoming too insufferable

like i dont know of anyone who follows infowars that doesn't try to pass the terrible conspiracies about underground walmart tunnels to everyone they know in real life

The official story is that Jon left because he wanted to continue to do his own show instead of Game Grumps and he couldn't because it was cutting way into his free time. The drama attached is that neither he nor Egoraptor conveyed this to their audience very well and so a fuckbillion conspiracy theories spawned on the matter until they both, separately, cleared the air... which spawned MORE conspiracy theories because they didn't clear the air together at the same time. It still continues to this day because fans of things on the internet are insane people

I just played through Luigi's Mansion (original) for the first time and got a Rank E house lmao the amount of money you need to get high ranks must be absurd.

Also I still had three Boos left but I didn't know where they were at all and then when I beat the game it overwrote my save file with a NG+ without warning me so I guess I'm done.

It's actually way, way harder to get the lowest grade mansion because you have to basically avoid all money forever.

It's not hard to get a rank B mansion once you know a few of the more obscure ways to make money (watering all the plants for instance, catching all the boos gets you a big diamond).

But for a Rank A mansion you need to get into the real tough stuff like one time spawning golden mice, blue ghosts, and getting as many pearls from the portrait ghosts as possible. It isn't TOO hard if you know what you're doing but it takes some effort.

Good to know E wasn't the lowest then.

So King Boo doesn't count as a boo? But that one boss that was like 20 boos in one does??

Still a mystery where those last three were. I checked all the rooms over again and nothing came up on the boodar. There are two greyed-out rooms on the map (one of them has a door that's boarded up). Is there a way to get in there or something?

You can get into every room on the map yes.

Also in the PAL version you can't get an A-rank except in NG+, because it requires more money than is in the game
