Sonic the Hedgehog Returns to Macy's Thanksgiving Parade

Dreadknux posted a topic in Sonic Community & Events, November 25

Happy Thanksgiving! This year marks the annual Macy's Thanksgiving Parade, and for the first time in many years Sonic the Hedgehog finally returned to the balloon show!

We all remember that fateful time a Sonic balloon collided with a lamppost in downtown NYC and deflated across town... thankfully there were no such issues this year, with Sonic floating across the city relatively unharmed.

Did you watch the parade live? What do you think of the Sonic balloon this year?

Sonic Unleashed, Sonic Generations, and Sonic All Stars Racing on Xbox to receive a FPS boost on Xbox Series consoles

Dreadknux posted a topic in Sonic Games, November 15

Just announced on the Xbox 20th Anniversary stream. These three games have been backwards compatible on Xbox consoles for a while now, but FPS Boost is something a whole lot of us were asking for. It basically modifies the original game in such a way as to improve framerates beyond the original game's performance.

For games like Sonic Generations, Unleashed and SART, which rely on speed (obviously), this is huge news.

News story is here; more games have been given FPS Boost as well but the Sonic games are obviously the important ones for us here. 🙂

The 15th Anniversary of Sonic the Hedgehog 2006

Kuzu posted a topic in Sonic Games, November 14

Yup, the 15th anniversary game has now turned 15 itself. Where does the time go.

What can be said about this game that hasn't already been said, so I'll try to keep this brief. This game has a lot of meaning to me and the franchise as a whole to put it mildly, that even a decade and a half later, it's still arguably a huge stain on the franchise's reputation that even popular gaming sites still talk about to this very day. It's likely the reason the series has become so safe and unambitious as of late, and it's pretty much the point when the supporting characters all had reduced roles and the Flanderization starting to get real apparent. This game is infamous for a reason.

Today is the panel for Paramount! It starts at 10AM PST/1PM EST/6 PM UK time. While we obviously can't stream it live or see the contents at the same time (there is decent chance we won't see the trailer the same day), assuming the Sonic movie does in fact show up at Cinemacon (which would be odd if it didn't) we will be able to learn a few things.
