Ohhhhh, that guy! I'm excited now.
I look forward to an hour of rage.
No friends.
No alcohol.
Nothing but pure horror.
Only thing is, this kind of playthrough might require an audience just so I don't kill myself, so that might have to wait until the summer so I can get a capture device.
I'm actually going to be taking the plunge into both 06 and Unleashed myself one of these days. All the way through 06 before I even open Unleashed.Well, looks like I'll be joining the dark side soon

I did it for you, my dear Professor.
Only for you, forever.
PS: The other day I played another little of Sonic 06, I'm at 45% of Sonic Story. 0 for Shadow & Silver.
HOW LONG IS THIS FUCKING GAME.
I personally think I'll take alcohol while playing this shitfest. Otherwise I might ragequit way too soon...

For those who might be interested in getting into the comics. Here's some example of why under the right writer, Sonic's "Shitty friends" don't have to be shitty at all.

Omega only at #9? No Marine? Bah.

Good read. This made me want to get back into it. Only question is where? I can't really remember where I stopped. Any good place to jump back in to the more recent ones?

Pokecapn's LP is around 22 hours long, I believe? When ShockingAlberto and I did our charity race, we finished just under 17 hours.

Catching up myself, it looks like they are also billing 236 as a great "jumping on point".

It makes sense. Given the nature of the larger Sonic franchise, you wanna make the comic accessible to people just coming in from the games or whatever, and having a jumping on point every year or so makes that easier for people.
I'm a bit grumpy at the moment with Archie because of the upcoming cover of #239:
Which is just:
+
Even trying to drum it up as "Featuring a brand new painted cover by Greg Horn!" It's just an ugly and dull cover. I'm sure I'll enjoy whatever is inside, but don't patronize a group of people who have had to deal with "Many Hands" before.

I didn't know who Greg Horn even was, but googling the name reveals this ComicsAlliance article that really makes me wonder why, exactly, anyone at Archie thought this guy would be a good fit for drawing the cover to Sonic the Hedgehog given he seems to specialize in cheesecake.

I actually like the Power Girl piece at that link. Her expression is great and the dudes in the back are goofy.
That Sonic cover is just amazingly lazy, though. It really is just the two promo renders put together.

If I was to pay someone to draw a cover art and it was just two stock renders mashed together i'd be rather angry as a manager, really lame cover.
This is interesting. Ever since this community thread I've been wanting to get into the Archie comics but never knew where to start. Should I start at the very beginning or at a certain arc? I'm sure either way it'll be a lot of reading to get caught up to now lol.

I always loathed that Heroes render. It has to be the ugliest render of Sonic this side of Flickies' Island (which is still the worst), hands-down. The constipated pose, the hideous smile, the creepy stare... awful.

Good God, what the heck were they thinking with cover? It's unimaginative and the Heroes render just sucks.
Doesn't someone have their avatar with Sonic's creepy face from a panel in one of the comics? It reminds me of that.
I got 235 but I haven't had a chance to read it yet due to studying. I'm expecting good stuff after last issue.

Hilariously, my satisfactory experience while tipsy ended with the Silver fight. It wasn't any use!

Holy fuck, is that Sonic Heroes render the ugliest fucking thing since Flickie's Island or what? Goddamn

I enjoy most of the tracks from the game. It helps that I listen to them without actually playing through most of the levels in question.

I like "What I'm Made Of Now," but I can't think of any other tracks from that I liked.
I did enjoy Sonic Heroes, though. It's nowhere near the best Sonic games, but it's also not a trash heap like people say it is.
I mean the render.

OH. No, that thing looks hideous. Why does his mouth look like the Nike logo?

Where do you think Sega keeps getting the money to fund all these Sonic games? product placement is smart business.
Better the Nike logo for his mouth compared to that weird wobbly mouth thing he has going on Sonic 4 episode 2, I curse the people here for bringing that to my attention!

I do like Ocean Palace's music. Actually, you know what? Seaside Hill/Ocean Palace are decent levels. Heroes at least doesn't break the rule of Sonic games having fun first levels.
But the joy of Heroes ends there.

I know not this mouth-thing you speak of, but I have a feeling it's best if my inquiry ends here.
The sonic cover and everything at that link offends me. Greg Horn is now on my shit list.
And hey now, Heroes' soundtrack wasn't all bad. We got Mystic Mansion and Lost Jungle out of it.

I have waited what seems to be ages for this to happen.

I saw the people joking about this in the comments for the other videos. I didn't think he'd actually do it. Amazing.
