You'd think so, but nope, it was all TT Games: https://twitter.com/gene_hf/status/799663845983678464

The only notable bubbles I recall come from part 2's Caesar Zeppeli, what bubbles in part 1 are we on about here?

In the fight against Tarkus, Jonathan gets dragged underwater, and needing to find some air he dives deeper in order to find air pockets.

Oh yeah, forgot all about that.

Does anyone else feel like TT deserves another crack at the Sonic franchise? The on-the-fly character switching in the Lego games always made me think of Sonic Heroes.
I would love a full Lego Sonic game by them. Also,
the level's story ends with a cliffhanger so I guess there might be more from them in the future.

They'd be a good candidate for the Sonic Boom franchise.

I kinda want some Sonic figures...but the prices...=(

They're picking great comics too. I've seen both Mecha Madness and the Sonic CD adaptation being packed in with different figures. Both were prized possessions to 8 year old me.

Man, Mecha Madness was so awesome. Happened across an old issue earlier this week, and it's just as fun as I remembered.
I also found a box with all of the pre-Sonic Adventure comic adaptations in a box at my parents' place earlier this week. I completely forgot there was a Sonic 3D Blast adaptation, haha.

And now for everyone's favourite fangame - Sonic's Mega Quest.
Completely out of the blue but would anyone here be crazy enough to own US versions of Comix Zone or Vectorman 1 / 2 here?
Want to extract the artwork from their manuals, but ebay's bullshit $30 shipping from the US to NZ for a game is a nightmare in itself. Would be keen to pay to borrow them, scan them and send them back

I do own all 3 on Genesis...
But don't have any of their manuals...

Not at a crazy high resolution I'm after for art extraction

Should've thrown a link to Nocturne in there for good measure.

Do you perversely enjoy suffering and horrible games? if so get Sonic Blast.

Okie dokie then, any impressions for the other games?

I never really put more than a few minutes into either Sonic Drift title when I unlocked them in Adventure DX, they seemed pretty unspectacular.
I'm a big fan of Sonic 1 GG so definitely go for it, Sonic 2 GG however I never got past the second zone in my master system days (that damn hang-glider, I was new to games so basically doomed) so I can't really judge it. But I will warn you that the first boss on the GG version is an absolute nightmare, it's pretty rough to begin with but the tinier screen for the GG basically takes it to the next level of BS.
Abuse those save states shamelessly.
Sonic 3 GG, is that triple trouble or chaos? both kinda blend into one similar blur for me but they're fun enough and perfectly functional games, worth trying on the cheap.

They speak the truth.
Sonic 1 and 2 on GG were fun enough. Sonic Triple Trouble and Sonic Chaos were alright as well, but I'm not sure if they are on the eShop. I would avoid Blast, and Labyrinth as well if that's on there.

Eh..Sonic 1-2 GG and Chaos (3?) are decent enough games to play through. I may go against the tide and say Chaos and Triple Trouble are stronger games than 1 and 2 (especially 2).
Don't waste your time on Drift or Drift 2. They're relics that will provide you with maybe 20 minutes of enjoyment.
Chaos came first, so that's presumably 3.

20 minutes for less than 3 quid is worth it for me
20 minutes might be an overstatement. It really depends on how much enjoyment you can pull out of, essentially, a less sophisticated version of Outrun or Pole Position fit to early 90s hardware.
It's not the Mario Kart clone the game would have you believe it to be.

If you haven't played them, I would actually recommend the 3D remakes of Sonic 1 and 2 for Genesis. They were both on sale this week, although I'm not sure if they still are. Either one of them is probably better than the GG games combined.
people called this year the year of dreams, but honestly, 2017 is looking absolutely insane and legit like one of the best years ever for games:
-a new 2D Sonic with Genesis physics
-Sonic Generations 2 basically
-Yooka Laylee (basically a new Banjo Kazooie)
-new 3D Mario that is more open like Mario 64
-new 3D Zelda
-new Marvel vs Capcom?
-new Red Dead
-new numbered Resident Evil that leans more into horror than action of the last couple titles
like WOW. basically all we need is a new Metal Gear (Death Stranding?) and a new Metroid and all of my personal favorite franchises/devs have games coming next year. madness.

Wonder if I should get this for my 6 month y/o niece...

Well I was gonna say Tails has never looked better but in light of the revelation in the post above i'm no longer too sure.

It's just a black cat; I don't think blackface was intended here.
Though if it's not that disturbing implication, it's now the other disturbing implication that a black-furred cat skinned Tails and is now wearing his fur.

Pikachu has been doing it for months and nobody batted an eye.
Pokemon are monsters, that was just tuesday
Dear Santa,
I've been very good this year. For Christmas I would like Tails in blackface, and Knuckles as a constipated duck.
Thanks
Dutch Santa can make it happen.
New, old Sonic Fan Game day!
Tails' Rescue Quest!
Made by Adam Merideth - a very quick game, but I actually enjoyed playing this one! That lava level had some incling of fun game design in it, which I don't see much from other old Fan games.
