Snolf was fun to watch and this run is pretty good too! It's kind of weird to see a racing game where you don't have like go karts or planes or porsches or whatever, it's just running :confused:

edit: i rescind my final comment based on jetpacks and Goku

SNOLF is awesome, but pretty much every Sonic game makes me wonder seriously about the people who insist Sonic games are their favourites.

The game was unspeakably awful, but big props to the runner for giving it a brave go.

Right? Like even the older sonic games that people go 'these were the good ones' look underwhelming and awkward and the series has just so much bad jank. I don't understand how they become anybody's favorites aside from like 'I was 5 years old and an idiot and I never questioned my nostalgia'

The twitch account page for GDQ has chapters (i.e. a bit before and after each game) within the recent broadcasts page (on desktop!)

Can't believe they made a Snolf game where you run instead of golfing.

Yeah. I'm old enough to have been alive when Sonic 1 came out and I remember it looking AMAZING in Computer + Video Games, and sure enough, the game looked awesome and when you got to go fast it was insanely fun.

But then they'd designed like 80% of the game to make it so you can't actually go fast and then it's just a platformer with imprecise and floaty controls. And when they moved from 2D to 3D it all just went to poo poo and never recovered even a little bit.

Thought we were talking about Rule of Rose for a second and that game sucked to the point where I would recommend against a physical copy.

Going way back but I would recommend against a physical copy because they run like $500 these days

I'm a bit of GeoGuessr lover so I'm curious about that run, you can find yourself on a random remote Japanese island far from mainland Japan or high up in the Andes so interested to see how it goes.

I can only assume since it's marked as co-op, they could do it similarly than their first ever Geoguessr run on ESA, where it's sorta vetted seed. One of them will look at the actual location and try to tell the other where they are, so person number two can find it on the map.

Or maybe they will simply just do a two-man attempt on a perfect score. They have an hour for estimate, so it might be 5 minutes or not at all!

And yeah this Sonic game looks solid for 1998 (!) and runs great

One was made by a team of passionate developers who had genuine enthusiasm for their project, and the other is the actual 3d sonics.
