Is this the End? No, this is Patrick

Me neither. I haven’t watched it since they started randomly playing reruns on Disney XD of all places lol

Does it require having every world unlocked?

Actually, now that I think about it: I haven’t finished underground. huh.

I've found every single music note - I'll have a guide up within a hour or two to show everyone where to find them all.

Good luck either doing the 1,000 jumps or getting the autohotkey script right.

Yes yes yes. I would love to see a Chaotix centered show about their lives as detectives. A buddycop adventure with some sitcom elements would be the perfect vibe for the Chaotix crew Absolutely. They promised us their mother will be found, and they have yet to find her

Weekly Check-In : Sonic Adventure DX (Steam Release, Modded) I completed Knuckles' route this week, and it was enjoyable! I liked the treasure hunting stages in SA2, and I liked them here. Surprise, surprise. As with Sonic's stages, Knuckles' stages in SA1 are a lot easier than his stages in the sequel. The radar is better, with the ability to track all three emeralds at once instead of one at a time, and the emeralds are just...well, easier to find. They're placed in more accessible areas, in stages with (generally) less gimmicks. Because of that, I found myself spending more time finding the levels themselves than hunting for the emerald shards. Most of the time, the NPCs were kind enough to direct me where to go, but other times the game expects you to remember from past routes. Well, my memory is terrible and I wait several days between each session, so I ended up more like this: It wasn't too bad though. Having a map in the menu helped. As for the story itself, it's pretty good! Knuckles is shown a lot more visions than Sonic and Tails were, meaning more lore. They only seem to confuse the poor guy though, making this route unintentionally hilarious because it's mostly Knuckles stumbling around fixated on the emerald shards as Tikal is desperately trying to show him what happened to his ancestors. The ending made me laugh because it was basically him going, "Well that was weird! I don't need to know tho." about something that he VERY MUCH needs to know. Don't want to check in on those visions of disaster, buddy? Not even gonna tell anyone about them? Okay. You gotta love the guy. He put the refusal of the call at the end of his hero's journey and then the story just ends. Side note, I've been messing with the first-person camera this week, and took a ton of screenshots to use as desktop backgrounds. Here's a few of Tikal's shrine: Just imagine Knuckles running around with a camera as Tikal questions why she's bothering with him. ...And what's this? A cozy 1 bedroom 0 bath with rustic charm, a mailbox, and a fantastic view? I'd make an offer, but I'm short on rings and couldn't bear the draft. Makes for a great background though!

“Surprised we managed to get here before the others…” Blanc admits, glancing back at the other Skylanders not too far away. “The front? Alright.” She heads to the front car with Toph, having a small smile on her face. It reminds her a bit of the amusement oark back in Lowee, where often went with her sisters.

Popstar Amy was created by SEGA HARDLight and first appeared in Sonic Forces (Mobile) & Sonic Dash. Rockstar Sonic's outfit may be inspired by outfits worn by Micheal Jackson. Racesuit Modern Sonic was an unlockable outfit for Sonic after A Ranking all of his missions in Sonic Adventure 2 Battle. Both of his Race Outfits from Sonic Adventure 2 (which was orange) and Sonic Adventure 2 Battle were inspired by the HUmar outfit from Phantasy Star Online. The Scrapboard is the makeshift snowboard Sonic uses in the beginning of City Escape in Sonic Adventure 2.

Toph looked from left to right, grinning when she spotted the front car. It was like flying, but being restrained to track; just the way she preferred it. So, she wanted to feel the wind her face the best. "First cone first served!", she exclaimed, before rushing for the front car.

It's that time of the week again, where I tell you what Sonic (fan)games I have been playing (if you're not keeping up with the CC blog. Firstly on the block, we have our weekly dive into Speed Simulator: While the Eggman Boss Battle is very clearly labeled next to the Emerald Hill world, I didn't want to attempt it until we actually got to Emerald Hill. Obviously we unlocked Movie Knux and Series Knux and... you know, no. I'm not happy with the accumulation method for Knux. At least with Movie Sonic and Tails they were tasks to do while playing the game. The fact we had to stop at 5 dumbells to hand in absolutely infuriated me. Let me pick up as much as I can, and I don't even care if takes me down to 1 speed, I'd rather do that and learn my tolerance level than be forced to do 5 only per time. Phew, with that rant out the way, I think we're moving into New Yolk City next week, but I know the new rockstars event has dropped, so we'll probably peek at that also. That being said, we FINALLY finished Sonic Superstars this week: I tried to keep the thumbnail particularly ambiguous as I know some folk who watch the content haven't played Superstars either. It was... ok, I guess? I dunno, personally, if I had paid full whack for Superstars at launch, I'd be pretty miffed at the content it offered. Trip's story shouldn't of been "hard mode" and should of been more akin to Knuckles' story from S3K. Alternate paths and chasing the Egg Robo boss. Such a crazy difficulty curve, or maybe I'm just old and tired... Finally this week, we are back to fangames as we have been challenged by our friend Sonic Yoda of SEGA Driven to tackle Sonic Frenzy Adventure, of which the latest (today's) episode has launched: Tails' once again proving he is the worst boy. But in all seriousness, Frenzy Adventure is most definetely not like your average fangame and has a very steep difficulty curve and while the many, MANY deaths are frustrating, the autosave mechanic is not. We'll see how this goes in the next week or so... Finally, while not game related, this lovely bit of fan merch arrived today. Adding a third sonic song themed pin and a new tee... Until next week friends...

If you have been to a pawn shop in the United States for the past 30 years you have seen this smiling visage: I believe every Genesis ever made for the first two years must have come with a copy because they are everywhere. So many questions to ask. Why does the title screen have that as its logo... But the boxart has that logo? Is that the Bubsy font? Has anyone ever actually played this game? Even Longplay YouTube channels have things like this appended to them: Why did I play this game? This game is super exploitable, too. Maybe the developers (more on that in a second) thought themselves that nobody would ever play it. Pitching is extremely weak. Batting is way more powerful, but even more powerful than that is just letting the AI get hits and throwing them out or catching fly balls. The AI also doesn't manage pitcher strength very well, so in longer games they sometimes just start throwing Balls that they meant to curve but the pitcher is too fucked to actually control it. So you can easily manipulate games into joke games: Typical random mid-season baseball game experience Or mathematically the worst possible experience this game allows; where there are no hits for 12 innings and then one pitcher walks 4 batters seemingly just so everyone can go home. Eventually, as the games pile on in the season, you just start hurling baseballs at people: You start just destroying the fabric of the game to amuse yourself: You convincingly throttle random teams through exploiting the AI: And all you can see is stuff like this: Rather than focus on any of the riveting baseball gameplay. Pictured above: Riveting baseball gameplay. And you play 30 games of this before you get into the playoffs. Your eyes glaze over as you stumble to scenic... Minneapolis.. You ask the most important question of all: What has become of my life? You wonder... who would pay in real life to watch this shit? Is it because of this: They actually showed up the second game. And they scared me for the third, but then: It almost was competitive. Time for the WORLO SERIES. New York vs THE ANGEL. Yankees vs the Dodgers. Could this be the most hated finals in baseball history? This is the point where I just started throwing it straight across home play every time and not even trying to get strikes. Just let the OP as fuck infielders take care of everything. It worked. Not every time. But it did so enough and the games went by *way* faster. The last game I decided I wouldn't even swing the bat unless my 4 good hitters on the team were up. Pitching straight across the plate with a pitcher on 0 Strength, and not even bothering to swing the bat unless the 4 guys who could reliably hit home runs were coming up to bat. Focus all my energy on defense. How did that work out? Oh. The New York are the Worlo Series Champions! This credit sequence is pretty cool. Especially for a console game from the 80s. I imagine that art burned up a ton of the cartri- lmao. As you can see from the title bar that reports the ROM header, there was a Japanese version of this game. I'm not playing that to chronicle the differences between it and Tommy Lasorda Baseball. It also had a sequel that the US also got (in enhanced form as Sports Talk Baseball): I'm... I'm not playing that either, no.

“Not sure how many of them would call me a friend, but… I guess you’re right.” Blanc shrugs and nods, continuing to follow the group along to the roller coaster. “Now then… Let’s do this thing.” She stops in front of the roller coaster cars, looking at them and following where the tracks lead.

“Well, my home is floating on the sea, actually.” Aileas smiles and nods happily at Undyne. “Seafolk Village is kind of a collection of, well… boat houses, I guess is the best way to describe them. They’re all gathered around a floating wooden pier that serves to connect them all!” She tries to explain. As such, she’d always felt most at home when being rocked gently by the waves, their ebb and flow reaching her ears.

Dimitri’s head bursts from the water, and though he’s a bit embarrassed, he just laughs happily. He rubs his eye and shakes his head so his hair is out of his view as he looks up at Akemi. “Yes, I’m quite alright. It wasn’t as though I was going too quickly, after all.” He chuckles as he looks to his own Blooper before grabbing Akemi’s hand and pulling himself back up. “It’s quite the slippery surface, and those sudden waves were more aggressive than I thought.” Dimitri stands back up on the Blooper, willing to try again.

A series going over game sonics origins/past. Because if look at him, you realize that we basically know nothing about him.

Wade Wipple Adventure. The baddie can be Pissed Old Pete. It has a bowling mimi game. Naturally.

The event has begun!!... Since Popstar Amy is in the game, I wonder if HARDlight will use Roblox' Rockstar Sonic and Rockstar Shadow (Glamrock Shadow would have been better) from Sonic Channel too in their games... Anyway, if we take Roblox' characters into account, the "Music Dimension" is now made up of Punk Zazz, DJ Vector, Rockstar Rouge, Popstar Amy, Drummer Cream, Rockstar Sonic and Rockstar Shadow!!...

The only thing I would change about Generations is making the bosses harder/more interesting. Out of the four, Dragoon was the only interesting one. DER, PC and TE were incredibly lack lustre/easy/underwhelming (delete as appropriate. What I always asked for, was for SEGA to provide after support for DLC levels/bosses. I think it could of been a testing bed for several levels or interpretations of levels from games and they could of taken response to specific levels as maybe games to look at porting/remaking in the future. Now there are still options for that to be the case in SxSGens, but I won't hold my breath.
