Re: Is Chao Island Forums Dead?
I am very happy that these forums still exist. Communities suffer when they stuff their research and efforts into walled garden platforms. Discord is excellent for throwaway chats, but for long-term searchability and health of a topic, there is nothing better than forums. Chao Island is from a time ...

Re: So tell me why was Sonic 06 bad?
I actually don't think it would've been bad save for one thing (I'll get to that in a minute). The game is straight up glitchy- often times you'll find yourself falling through solid floors, finding the camera sending itself into weird places, experiencing cheap deaths in the "speed sections". Silve...

I saw it on the Cooking Channel (DIRECTV 232, if I'm not mistaken) today. It was nice. Very nice.

Re: Sonic in Progressive Commercial

Can someone who has "seen it in the wild" confirm what channel it appears on? (I'd put money on Car...

Re: Your thoughts on Sonic Generations?
Crisis City just bothered me. A lot. Toward the end, where you're met by that flame tornado as Classic Sonic led to many "falling through platform" glitch deaths. Modern Sonic's version was horribly slow, and homing attack leads to your death too often.

Re: Just played Shadow the Hedgehog since 2007
I always get really discouraged and stopped playing each time I get to the Mad Matrix level. It takes forever, you die so many times, and it's just plain awful. I could probably go turn on my Gamecube right now and that level is still what I'm on. Absolutely wonderful game though. I had a blast with...

Re: Hydrocity or Hydro City?
I always said "Hi-DRAW-city".
In Sonic 3, the level's name had no space. It was spelled "Hydrocity", which made me read it like "velocity", and enunciate it with the emphasis on "draw".
But now they go and flip it and call it "Hydro City", and I'm all like lolwut

Re: About: Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing with Banjo Kazooie
I LOVE this game. Sure the courses are uninspired. Yeah, the items are ridiculously lame (excluding the All-Star Move, which is too rare and too overpowered [oxymoron?]). The announcer you've probably already muted for being obnoxious and insulting you for no reason ("WHERE did you learn to DRIVE, a...

Re: Your thoughts on Sonic Generations?
I ended up getting the 360 version. My thoughts? :surprise: GET THIS GAME. Anyone who has played Sonic from the classic Genesis games up to the "modern" games will get this grand, special fuzzy feeling (called nostalgia) each time you revisit an old stage and see an element you remember. SEGA did a ...

Re: Fallout 3
I just recently picked up Fallout 3. I'm at the part where you have to explore Rivet City, and do a whole bunch of crap near DC. The game is pretty fun so far, but the MASSIVE GREY LANDSCAPE can really be an eyesore. Why can't nuclear war have some colours? lol

Re: So I was thinking about Sonic 06
The game had crazy potential, but it was ruined horribly. A remake would never sell well after the media trashing it. If you change it too much, it's no longer a remake- just a new game that uses the same storyline as one that failed (which would be trashed by the media as a "cheap lazy rehash"). I ...

I love Crush 40 and their performances of the Sonic songs. I wish they'd go through with getting their songs on the Rock Band Network... but SEGA won't let them do it . Maybe one day I can rock out to Open Your Heart with my fake plastic instruments~

Hyper Sonic was rainbow-shifting-colours, and made levels blindingly hard to play, so I'm going to go with him.

Re: Your thoughts on Sonic Generations?
I didn't know they were recreating old boss battles too! That's awesome!
I really haven't looked up anything about the game, so I ask, should I get the Xbox 360 version or the 3DS version (or both)? Are there any differences in stages or characters or anything I should know about?

Re: Tails Doll Discussion.
This old tale cracks me up, almost as bad as the "Lavender Town causes suicide!" story that came along with Pokémon Gen I. The stories people can invent over something as simple as a video game character are simply stunning.

Re: what cariter do u like from the sonic careiters
Tails or Knuckles. Sonic's ego bothers me at times, and it takes Tails' little-kiddiness and Knuckles' tough-guy attitude to keep him in line .
And Chaaaaoooooooo! They're my favourites.
If they're even considered "Sonic characters".
Which they should be.
