I hope if Shadow ends up in on of these movies, there's a scene of him going into a real life Hot Topic

Wasn't there a bunch of GUN marked vehicles shown in the production photos? If they are doing STH 2 and 3 with this presumably the gameplan, should this one do the cash, is to have Sonic 3 be about the adventure cycle (or at least the Shadow part of it, though hey, if they want to make it a double kaiju feature, I wouldn't say no)

Also Sonic’s movie voice isn’t a celebrity outside of the voice acting field either (correct me if I’m wrong though as I only really know him from Ducktales)

I can't believe you think Ben Schwartz is only known for his voice acting

That's a joke about that character being the little brother (or son?) of Jean Ralphio from Parks & Rec.

Off the Idris topic, Sonic and Tails will be playable in the upcoming Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania. Already teased previously but here's the announcement trailer.

Idris Elba as Kuckles makes a lot of sense. I don't even have the ususal worry that 'live action star won't be good at voice acted role' because he already feels like a cartoon character in everything I've seen him in.

Thats not a slam on Idris he's really fun on screen its a slam on people who for some reason told me Luther was a good drama series instead of a cavalcade of complete nonsense

I will never get over Sonic Chaos' cover, with Sonic in rocket shoes in a ski pose. It's the most 90's thing. I wish it was possible to fit that, but also something like the smug dog's expression on him into an emote.

Oh, same story as Sonic Forces and the 25th, where as far as I know they basically had the concept and whipped up a trailer around it to have something to show and that's it.

KHIII's "Now in Development" announcement and FFXV's constant changes were annoying, but the worst is hearing a massively anticipated game has started over from scratch with a new developer. It doesn't mean the final game will be bad, just that you'll have to wait much, much longer to start seeing anything from it again. It usually means the company really wants this project to turn out well and don't want to keep building on a rocky foundation, or they want a different team to make it. FFVII Remake was fantastic and I hope Metroid Prime 4 will be as well.

Here's a great video about the thought that goes into one of Sonic Adventure 2's levels. Don't let the title mislead you, it's really just showing off good level design.

I'll always prefer Sonic taking place on a different world like all the pre-Adventure media, but the Adventure games and Unleashed definitely made the most of the real world. Who wouldn't want to grind down the Golden Gate Bridge or surf down San Francisco?

Forces and the comics have nothing but manimals, so I guess that's the direction they want to go in, but I hope they use Unleashed humans again, I loved the world design of that game. If nothing else, I hope the design of the IDW cast bleeds into the games, they've been pretty universally excellent, even minor background characters.

i've been kicking rear end at life this summer after being in a funk the last few years and have had a lit fire under my rear end lately getting poo poo done like crazy for months and months after spending hours writing a big rear end TDL of "what is beep's perfect life" and then a "well what needs to be achieved to reach this", and i hit the part of my list today that was "figure out the best way to play sonic 1, 2, cd, and 3 on non-mobile" and today I am thrilled to announce to my sonic friends that I just got the android ports of Sonic 1, 2, CD working on my PC as well as sonic 3 A.I.R. and I intend to go through them today!!!!

**edit: I should mention these are all decompilations that you need the official purchased game on your system to even use so they're not Filez, but most of you prob know this already, but! if you don't, check out this link: https://github.com/Rubberduckycooly

and then I do it anyway just to show the world that I still got it

It’s so much easier to get them in Taxman Sonic 2. I hate going for them otherwise.
